Radiohead - Nude (OKNOTOK cassette)

[manicfoot]

I can now see why it was a decade-long battle to get this song recorded

Not that this version is bad by any means, but the song is constantly getting pulled in different directions by the band members and feels unfocused.

Incredible really considering how organic Nude sounds on In Rainbows. Just shows that their hard work really paid off in the end :)

IR's version is untouchable but I really liked the OKC vibes this one has. Thom's vocals are on point

[auzzieamerican]

I still hear the organ part in my head even when I listen to the In Rainbows version.

I always remember Nude as 2007's song. Best album of my life in that era my everyday music my dark times of 2007. I can't believe i'm still alive today.

Don't get any big ideas
They're not gonna happen
That thin stewardess her skirt in a mess
You don't stand a chance
What do you look like when you're nude
What do you look like when you're nude
What do you look like nude
Soulless reflection
In the other person's eyes
Death bed, first home damaged good, subject
Object none
So don't get any big ideas
They're not gonna happen you'll go to hell
For what your dirty mind is thinking
What do you look like when you're nude
What do you look like when you're nude
It's weirding me out.

I do like the organ a lot, and missed it in the final version. But In Rainbows definitely harnesses the potential of the song better.

[sheepie]

I love this version! So much emotion and an INSANE vocal performance. The organ is also so good!

[absurdbird]

Incredible. Just... wow. Heard the original a million times, am desensitised to it, but now I'm in tears.

[samuelcunha]

It feels more “organic” hahaha I’ve loved it

[willgolden]

I think I might actually like this version more than IR's. Thom's vocals really do it for me here

[leoscoo]

I think the line "what do you look like when you're nude?" and the way his performance of this line progresses more aggressive and powerfully throughout the song makes this version a bit better. It feels more like a creep type of vibe which I can relate with

[SuperiFox]

IR’s Nude is so sleek and intimate and elegant compared to this, this really doesn’t hold a candle

[patrizio.sound.london]

It's a good demo, but the proper song sounds so so so much better. I can not beleive how much improvements they made before realising that masterpiece.

[MrBmick]

I saw them debut this song in Dallas on Ok Computer Tour. 1998, Dallas Fair Park Music Hall

february 14 ive just fell in love again... thanks for putting this... its really amazing

[slippinsettle]

Words cannot express how grateful i am that you uploaded this. 🙏

[johnnyofilms]

i feel like Nude is the one Radiohead song that would make sense in all of their Albums

[alfredocaputto]

This is something out of my teen years. Thank you <3

[samirghimire]

The new one definitely has a lot more radiohead vibe to it. But the old one, oh my god. It just speaks so loud and so bravely. The organ 10/10

instrumentally sounds like somethin off a Nick Cave and bad seeds late 80s or early 90s stuff, love it
