Radiohead - No surprises



Radiohead - No Surprises

Conceptual 
Lyrics and music relate.
All in one shot.
Lights flashing with the music
Lyrics backwards so he read them
Drowning in his sorrows - helplessness, human life is fragile
Reincarnation, going back to the beginning.
Self-Reflective

Breaking or re-enforcing conventions - breaking conventions as it is about suicide, carbon monoxide, lethal in certain does

Concept and music - The concept is being trapped, committing suicide, resembling life. slow pace and aery music.

Image - Depressive and emotional image, designed to attract a mature audience.

“self-reflective” - reflective on his life, reflection on his face, watching his life flash before his eyes. suicidal reflection, looking back on his life.

Notion of looking - Goodwin, we are looking through the glass at him. focusing on the star - Star in text - Hyper real.
