Videotape

Since I heard this song for the first time live, I fell in love with it.  But now I listen to it about once a day because it is so poignant both musically and lyrically.   Several of the lyrics pull at me every time I listen.  One specific lyric "today has been the most perfect day I've ever seen...."  He said something similar to me the day before I believe he started his slow slip away.  I let him in the car, came around and sat behind the drivers seat, he leaned over a little bit and told me "that was the best Redskins game I have ever seen."  It was a very good game, but that description has always stuck with me, because it seemed slightly over the top since he had seen a lot of great Skins games.  But I think I understand now.
Here it is, Radiohead Live
