S11E11 - Videotape by Radiohead (Season Finale)

We conclude our season long analysis of Radiohead's In Rainbows with its final track "Videotape." We reveal the "secret rhythm" of the piano, give a step by step explanation of the stuttering percussion, and discuss the touching lyrics written from the perspective of a man saying a final goodbye before he dies. Finally, we take a look a Goethe's Faust as a possible reference point for the song and album before sharing some key takeaways from In Rainbows as a whole. Shop Dissect Season 11 Merch.
