Containing a slight eight tracks across 37 minutes, The King of Limbs is Radiohead's first album to clock in under the 40-minute mark, falling. Radiohead released its eighth album, The King of Limbs, as a digital download this morning, a day earlier than expected. With eight tracks spanning 37 minutes, The King of Limbs is surprisingly.
The King of Limbs: Live from the Basement is a 2011 live video album by the English alternative rock band Radiohead. It is their second From the Basement performance, following In Rainbows – From the Basement (2008). It was recorded in Maida Vale Studios and produced by longtime Radiohead collaborator Nigel Godrich.[1]
The video includes performances of all eight tracks from Radiohead's 2011 album The King of Limbs, plus the 2011 singles 'The Daily Mail', 'Staircase', and 'Supercollider'.[1] The DVD and Blu-ray editions include a download code and a 32-page hardback book of photos from the recording session.[2][3]
Radiohead are joined by Clive Deamer on additional drums and percussion and a horn section for several songs.[1]The King of Limbs: Live from the Basement was aired on several TV channels internationally.[1]
Reception[edit]
In a 2015 article for Stereogum, Ryan Leas argued that The King of Limbs: Live From the Basement was superior to The King of Limbs: 'You hear muscle and movement and bodies existing where the now tapped-out ingenuity of Radiohead’s electronic impulses has begun to make their recorded music brittle.'[4]

Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Bloom
Open your mouth wide
The universe will sigh
And while the ocean blooms
It's what keeps me alive
So why does it still hurt?
Don't blow your mind with whys
The universe will sigh
And while the ocean blooms
It's what keeps me alive
So why does it still hurt?
Don't blow your mind with whys
I'm moving out of orbit
Turning in somersaults
A giant turtle's eyes
As jellyfish float by
Turning in somersaults
A giant turtle's eyes
As jellyfish float by
Morning Mr. Magpie

Little By Little
Turned so nasty now
The dark's there
The pillar of my soul
The last one out of the box
The one who broke the spell

I'm such a tease and you're such a flirt
Once you've been around you've been around enough
I'm such a tease and you're such a flirt
Once you've been around you've been around enough
Little by little by hook or by crook
Never living earnest, never get judged
I don't know where it is I should look
Never living earnest, never get judged
I don't know where it is I should look
You could want it all, the flag and pole
I'm curling with my love
The last one out of the box
The one who broke the seal
I'm curling with my love
The last one out of the box
The one who broke the seal

Lotus Flower
I would shape myself into your pocket
Invisible
Do what you want
Do what you want
Invisible
Do what you want
Do what you want
I would shrink and I would disappear
I would slip into the groove
And cut me up
And cut me up
I would slip into the groove
And cut me up
And cut me up
There's an empty space inside my heart
Where the weeds take root
So now I set you free
I'll set you free
Where the weeds take root
So now I set you free
I'll set you free
Slowly we unfold
As lotus flowers
Cause all I want is the moon upon a stick
Just to see what if
Just to see what is
I can't kick your habit
Just to feed your fast-ballooning head
Listen to your heart
As lotus flowers
Cause all I want is the moon upon a stick
Just to see what if
Just to see what is
I can't kick your habit
Just to feed your fast-ballooning head
Listen to your heart
We would shrink and then be quiet as mice
And while the cat is away
Do what we want
Do what we want
And while the cat is away
Do what we want
Do what we want
There's an empty space inside my heart
Where the weeds take root
So now I set you free
I'll set you free
Where the weeds take root
So now I set you free
I'll set you free
Cause all I want is the moon upon a stick
just to see what if
Just to see what is
just to see what if
Just to see what is
The bird that's flown into my room
Slowly we unfold
As lotus flowers
Cause all I want is the moon upon a stick
I dance around the pit
The darkness is beneath
I can't kick your habit
Just to feed your fast-ballooning head
Listen to your heart
Slowly we unfold
As lotus flowers
Cause all I want is the moon upon a stick
I dance around the pit
The darkness is beneath
I can't kick your habit
Just to feed your fast-ballooning head
Listen to your heart
Codex
Sleight of hand
Jump off the end
Into a clear lake
No one around
Just dragonflies
Flying to our side
No one gets hurt
You've done nothing wrong
Jump off the end
Into a clear lake
No one around
Just dragonflies
Flying to our side
No one gets hurt
You've done nothing wrong
Slide your hand
Jump off the end
The water's clear
And innocent
Jump off the end
The water's clear
And innocent
The water's clear
And innocent
And innocent
Give Up The Ghost
Don't haunt me
Don't hurt me
Don't hurt me
Gather up the lust and soul
In your arms
In your arms
Gather up the pitiful
In your arms
In your arms
What seems impossible
In your arms
In your arms
I think I have had my fill
In your arms
In your arms
I think I should give up the ghost
In your arms
In your arms

it's like i've fallen out of bed from a long and vivid dream
the sweetest flowers and fruits were hanging from the trees
falling off a giant bird that's been carrying me
it's like i've fallen out of bed from a long and vivid dream
the sweetest flowers and fruits were hanging from the trees
falling off a giant bird that's been carrying me
it's like i've fallen out of bed from a long and vivid dream
Just exactly as I remember
Every word, every gesture
I've my heart in my mouth
Every word, every gesture
I've my heart in my mouth
It's like I've fallen out of bed from a long and vivid dream
Finally I'm free of all the weight I've been carrying
Finally I'm free of all the weight I've been carrying
And as that woman blows her cover
In the eye of the Beholder
I'm a fish now, out of water
In the eye of the Beholder
I'm a fish now, out of water
Falling off a giant bird that's been carrying me
I fell open, I lay under
At the tea parlour
I lost your number
And once it's over
Hid back under
At the tea parlour
I lost your number
And once it's over
Hid back under
If you think this is over, then you're wrong
If you think this is over, then you're wrong
If you think this is over, then you're wrong
If you think this is over, then you're wrong
If you think this is over, then you're wrong
If you think this is over, then you're wrong
If you think this is over, then you're wrong
It's like I've fallen out of bed from a long and vivid dream
Finally I'm free of all the weight I've been carrying
Finally I'm free of all the weight I've been carrying
Wake me up
