![]() Hail to the Thief (2003) [ larger cover art ] |
In pitch dark I go walking in your landscape
Broken branches trip me as I speak
Just 'cause you feel it, doesn't mean it's there
Just 'cause you feel it, doesn't mean it's there
There's always a siren
Singing you to shipwreck
''(Don't reach out, don't reach out)
(Don't reach out, don't reach out)''
Steer away from these rocks
We'd be a walking disaster
''(Don't reach out, don't reach out)
(Don't reach out, don't reach out)''
Just 'cause you feel it, doesn't mean it's there
''(There's someone on your shoulder)
(There's someone on your shoulder)''
Just 'cause you feel it doesn't mean it's there
''(There's someone on your shoulder)
(There's someone on your shoulder)''
There there!
Why so green and lonely?
And lonely
And lonely
Heaven sent you to me
To me
To me
To me
We are accidents
Waiting waiting to happen
We are accidents
Waiting waiting to happen

Great production and power, but his voice kills just about every RH for song for me. That, and their seemingly chronic downbeat view of existence. The vocal, and the incredibly expressive tone of Thom Yorke, on this fantastic song, fits perfectly with the overall feel of dread. His voice is just another incredibly expressive instrument in this band's amazing arsenal. One of my top 10 favorite songs of all time, this one. |

| lemmoth (NYC) | Posted: Mar 25, 2013 - 14:02 Raise your hand if you've been to a Radiohead show, heard the opening drumbeat of this and got shivers down your spine. ![]() What a great song. |
| coloradojohn (A Mile High and then some, Cherry Creek, Denver) | Posted: Jan 21, 2013 - 19:48 Still one of the best on my Radiohead playlist, I think; they do get down to really rocking out a bit in this one! |

| Paul_the_wonk (Ithaca, NY) | Posted: Dec 12, 2012 - 07:27 I absolutely love the second half of this song. "We are accidents waiting to happen" |

IMO, Thom Yorke is not a good vocalist and his thin flat range helps to step on my ears with their sound. |

| avatar71 (Sebastopol, CA) | Posted: Aug 17, 2012 - 18:13 Man, this guy's lyrics are depressing ("Just cause you feel it, doesn't mean it's there"...in case you were planning on making the mistake of trusting your feelings). Radiohead has made some great music and this song kinda rocks but this was pretty much the last time they really did. Everything since has sounded like music for a video game meant to be played by people with bipolar affective disoder on lithium. |
