These guys are gonna make it big one day

For me this song is about wanting so badly to be with someone special and circumstances prevent you from being together and it's ripping your heart out of your chest.

"I try to stay awake, but it's 58 hours
Since that I last slept with you."

Today is September 6th and I am crying with this song. Thanks Radiohead.

Damn to see Radiohead at a small venue like Metro, fucking awesome

[slugzillo]

thom yorke is one of the few musicians who can really pull off live performances. his voice is just so perfect every single time, and his tone is always wonderful

[uphillracer]

Gotta be the best performance!! Hats off to Ed for stellar harmony vocals

[greenwoodhoran]

[tonykichenside]

One of my favourite Radio head songs plus Letdown

[timothniel]

I get home from work
And you're still standing
In your dressing gown
Well what am I to do?
I know all the things around your head
And what they do to you
What are we coming to?
What are we gonna do?
Blame it on the black star
Blame it on the falling sky
Blame it on the satellite
That beams me home
Troubled words
Of a troubled mind
I try to understand
What is eating you
I try to stay awake
But it's 58 hours
Since that I last slept with you
What are we coming to?
I just don't know anymore
Blame it on the black star
Blame it on the falling sky
Blame it on the satellite
That beams me home
I get on the train and I just stand about
Now that I don't think of you
I keep falling over, I keep passing out
When I see a face like you
What am I coming to?
I'm gonna melt down
Blame it on the black star
Blame it on the falling sky
Blame it on the satellite
That beams me home
This is killing me
This is killing me

Thom: This is a song about getting back from work at 7:00 AM, & then getting sexy. "Black Star".










I like the brief overview Thom gives about "Black Star" before Radiohead perform the song.
