Radiohead - Exit Music (For A Film) lyrics

Album: OK Computer

[Cantfocvs]

No matter how many times I hear this song the climax will always give me major goosebumps and chills

[ZoaStousDromous]

This was originally written to be used for the ending of 1996 Romeo and juliet movie, that's why the lyrics ends with "Now we are one, in everlasting peace..."

[xXWinningTheFightXx]

It’s sorta ironic how “exit music for a film” can now be attributed to a bunch of different media. Black mirror, west world, Romeo and Juliet (the movie it was made for), umbrella academy.

[yuliana-wdul]

You know it’s getting bad again when you have this on repeat

[pantstime]

Unironically one of the best radiohead songs ever. I think a lot of their songs (especially in Ok Computer) give you a bittersweet or melancholic vibe but this song just goes out. Almost conveys a mix of emotions: like betrayal, anxiety, and some you can’t even explain, like the feeling you get when your given absolutely terrible news. Amazing.

[wosso]

When those drums kick in simultaneously with my tears

[lntynik]

"What did you do, Kenny?! They're saying it was kids! That's you've been looking at kids! And Lindsay saw it! There's a video of you, and all of her friends have got it! Kids, Kenny! Tell me that's not true!

[cookieman]

Saw this in 3 shows : Black Mirror, The 100, and Umbrella Academy


Black mirror nailed it

[kacacim]

this episode of black mirror, with the radiohead playing in the background at the end, is one of the best and most powerful moments of any tv series, and the song fits it perfectly
they completely engaged the audience throughout the whole episode and played a trick on them. unbelievably deep and provoking episode, that focuses on morality and ethics
well done

[yossuanaaguilar]

"When Radiohead starts playing at ANY SHOW OR FILM, you know something fucked up is gonna happen." -- THIS WAS USED AT THE END OF WESTWORLD SEASON ONE, AND I DIED.

[Moviethemer]

This is the song that made me think Muse sounded like Radiohead

[desertpeach]

This song goes out to Brianna Wells my good friend that was murdered. She was only 17. When I found out my friend and I just drove around, this song on repeat. Crying remembering taking it all in. Her case is still unsolved. It’s 5 years later I’ve never forgotten. Never gave up. I miss u Bri, I love you 💕 RIP hun.

[martewinters]

This is the saddest and best song i know. It is incredible.

[kerulee]

this song must be played by the end of 2020

[EtherealRoninERProductions]

2:50 someone animate this part of the song

In my head it just looks amazing if you think about it.

[VAMPITIONS]

This song haunts me. Kenny is stuck in my mind and i feel....not me. I need to process life rn. Black mirror truly is...something else.

[exiledPostman]

I like how it starts out really sad, then around the "you can laugh" part, it sounds distorted and almost threatening, like you're having a bad trip. Then it builds up and there's this amazing crescendo followed by the dying whimper of the ending. Such an awesome song. Two shows I watch used this song, but I thought it would be nice to actually talk about the song.

[patrickdi.]

Such an amazing song. How everything just builds up to 2:50 and then resolves the tension and sadness in such an amazing way, love it.

[Dworld]

I remember when OK Computer was released back in 97.
Still an amazing album.
