Top Comments of this video!! :3
After 50 listens I can confirm that this song follows the typical Radiohead acceptance routine.
1st listen - yeah it’s alright. Not their best work but it’s great to hear something new.
5th listen - actually this song is really good. Can tell it’s a B side. But still… it’s good
50th listen - BEST SONG EVER. Why was this omitted from the album??!

It's that part after the chorus...when he says "when you change your friends like you change clothes" and just lets it hang there, the music goes on and sounds somber yet tense...like a scene from a movie when someone reveals a deadly secret and the room goes silent. Nothing they can do to change what's been done...now they have to navigate the perils directly ahead of them.

Lyrics:
If you're in a forest, out of your mind
Harpies in the branches breaking your arms
If you're stuck in rainbows, shattering glass
Where you miss the moment, watching it pass
If you say the word
If you say the word
If you say the word
If you say the word
When you spend your life wishing on a twinkling star
When you forget how lucky you are
Buried in rubble, sixty foot down
If you say the word
If you say the word
If you say the word
If you say the word
Then I'll come running
When you change your friends like changing your clothes
If you say the word
If you say the word
If you say the word
If you say the word
If you say the word
If you say the word
Then I'll come running
I'll come running

Just like the best Radiohead songs, this is a grower. Has a great Talk Show Host/Climbing Up The Walls vibe to it; also feels, sonically, as a transitional exercise: you can still hear some of the spirit of OKC, while at the same time sensing that they’re moving towards something more textural.
