One of the best songs ever written! So intense. This version is now on Spotify/Apple Music and all streaming services: Spotify: Apple Music: From Wikipedia: “Jigsaw Falling into Place“ is a song by the English rock band Radiohead, produced by Nigel Godrich. It was released as the lead single from Radiohead’s seventh studio album, In Rainbows (2007), on 14 January 2008. The music video, directed by Garth Jennings and Adam Buxton, features Radiohead performing in their studio with cameras attached to bicycle helmets.” Radiohead performed an early version of “Jigsaw Falling into Place“ on their 2006 tour, with the working title “Open Pick“.[1] Mike Diver of Drowned in Sound described it as a “bass-propelled pop-rock head-bobber“. The lyrics were inspired by the chaos witnessed by the singer, Thom Yorke, when he was out drinking in Oxford. He said: “The lyrics are quite caustic—the idea of ’before you’re comatose’ or whatever, drinking yourself into oblivion and getting fucked-up to forget ... [There] is partly this elation. But there’s a much darker side.“ Adam Buxton, who co-directed the music video, said the song was about “being out on the town on a lairy Saturday night“.” Lyrics: Just as you take my hand Just as you write my number down Just as the drinks arrive Just as they play your favorite song As your bad day disappears No longer wound up like a spring Before you had too much Come back in focus again The walls are bending shape They’ve got a Cheshire cat grin All blurring into one This place is on a mission Before the night owl Before the animal noises Closed circuit cameras Before you’re comatose Before you run away from me Before you’re lost between the notes The beat goes round and round The beat goes round and round I never really got there I just pretended that I had Words are blunt instruments Words are sawed-off shotguns Come on and let it out Come on and let it out Come on and let it out Come on and let it out Before you run away from me Before you’re lost between the notes Just as you take the mic Just as you dance, dance, dance Jigsaw falling into place So there is nothing to explain You eye each other as you pass She looks back, you look back Not just once Not just twice Wish away the nightmare Wish away the nightmare You’ve got a light, you can feel it on your back A light, you can feel it on your back Jigsaw falling into place As always, if you enjoy these videos a like, comment or share goes a long way to letting me know you want me to continue x #radiohead #cover #acoustic
