Karma Police is an incredibly poignant and beautiful song that transcends time and space through its composition and the Music Video by Jonathan Glazer just adds to the dreamlike and melancholic nature of the song. Its the perfect combination. A perfect song and an elegant video, a perfect piece of art. Perfect.

Horst_In_Translation8 July 2016This is "Karma Police", a 4.5-minute music video for the Radiohead song with the same name. They got a somewhat famous director and lead actor to work on this one besides Radiohead lead singer Thom Yorke and the trio adds some decent quality to this little film. It's nicely atmospheric with the setting and I also think Glazer's camera work adds a lot to that. Plus, maybe the most important aspect is that the song is also nice to listen to with Yorke's voice working well with the admittedly fairly simple lyrics. This one is from 1997 already, so it will have its 20th anniversary soon, but Radiohead are still working today and going strong. I would not call myself a fan of the band or this music video (I will leave that to the real fans who have been at their concerts), but this was a solid watch and I recommend it.
