This new song by Radiohead has got to be one of the most awesome songs I have ever heard. Ranks up with Strawberry Fields Forever by the Beatles in it's complexity. You might first hear it and dismiss it as terrible.
Listen to the syncopated guitar work against the drums throughout the song. It's pretty simple but sounds so awesome together as the song goes back and forth from minor and major key.
The part that gets me starts at 2:27 where the drums cut out. The whole song changes with the layering of strings against Thom Yorke's falsetto voice. It just sits on those strings and then it all picks up again at 3:20 seconds... then finally leaving us to the viola at the end.
Just a sick song...
Lyrics:
Reckoner
You can take it with you
Disavow the pleasure
You were not to blame for
Bittersweet distractors
Dare not speak his name
Dedicated to all your
All your needs
Because we separate
it ripples our reflections
Because we separate
it ripples our reflections
Reckoner
Dedicated to all your
All your needs
