Radiohead’s Paranoid Android as covered by 35 YouTubers

by on June 17, 2011 with 38 Comments in Radiohead News

If you’ve ever filmed yourself playing Radiohead’s Paranoid Android (maybe while wearing a bear suit?) and uploaded it to YouTube, you might just be in this video.

YouTube user OHADI22 has compiled a 35 different versions of Paranoid Android covers into one giant YouTube cover version…and it’s not too bad considering this is one of Radiohead’s more ambitious compositions.

I like this better than Weezer’s version.

    1. This is amazingly awesomesauce.
    2. It makes me want to take my guitar out of storage and start learning again.
    3. It shows me how talented people in the world are (both the youtuber who culled all this together, and the artists who all performed) and how inspired by RH they have become.

    Nice.

  • SaCH

    coool, some days ago i found this “Virtual Choir 2.0″ by Eric Whitacre’s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WhWDCw3Mng&feature=player_embedded#at=35

    and i loved the ideaa, this is like the same but with one of the most epic songs of the universe ;)

    ““Bloom” is like out of body experience, anyone with me?”"
    im with you, i feel like the drums are like a road and the voice and melodies like the ocean and the sky, huge in the background of the track… bloom = really epic XD

  • Bou_ke

    Just brilliant, people don’t need t stop (there are actual video’s of Radiohead doing Portishead cover’s so why can’t we?)

    There’s one shot of a guy with the same Honda sticker on his sunburst telecaster as Jonny (you don’t hear him play). That’s kind of disturbing.

  • push>pull

    Still a great one.

    I lived it, I liked the Weezer cover too but this was a great comp in its own right. Thank you OHADI22.

  • eric blair

    wow! way better than that turd of a cover weezer did

  • Kid Amnesiac

    fucking GREAT work. fun assembly is the main root of our beloved indie shit.

  • isaac

    wow, im amazed at how the tempo for a song with all those time signature changes and epic length can be preserved with so many different covers? i wonder if hours and hours of editing was done just to keep everything in time

  • harold

    This is just brilliant!!

  • OHADI22

    Thanks everyone for your kind words. :)
    And thanks SEAN for posting this!

    “” bravo says:

    i was referring to getting a little worn out by “Paranoid Android”, not how people are inspired by Radiohead’s music. still the editing/effort is superb! :-)

  • Solid_Airbag

    This is more than awesome!! Fucking Brilliant!! I like… So this means 20+ can make a better cover than Weezer?

  • enz
