Although his elder sibling's fame may threaten to outshine his own accompli… Read Full Bio ↴Although his elder sibling's fame may threaten to outshine his own accomplishments, singer/songwriter Andy Yorke (whose brother, Thom Yorke, found international success with Radiohead) is a competent musician in his own right.

Born in 1972, he first rose to prominence with Unbelievable Truth, a Brit-pop band that enjoyed a brief stay on the U.K. charts during the late '90s. The group issued its final album in 2000, after which point Yorke returned to college and began making preparations for a solo career. Simple, his first solo effort, arrived in 2008

Daylight
Andy Yorke Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tomorrow I'll cover page one
First the ruins, then the museum
Nothing life-changing's happened
But I'm hoping tomorrow it will
This won't help me

The sunshine is angry as hell
So I don't like venturing out

My window looks onto a store
Selling tickets to get out of here
This won't help me
Fly me back now
I think I've messed up

The strange thing about this store
Is the locals are queuing for flights
I think I'll go down there as well
Since I came here to see how they live
This won't help me

Fly me back now
I think I've messed up

Overall Meaning

In his song "Daylight", Andy Yorke reflects on the monotony and aimlessness of his life as he watches the world pass him by. The lyric "Tomorrow I'll cover page one, First the ruins, then the museum" suggests that Yorke is simply going through the motions of a tourist's itinerary, without really feeling anything or learning anything new. He goes on to say "Nothing life-changing's happened, But I'm hoping tomorrow it will", indicating a deep longing for meaning and purpose.

The next stanza reveals that Yorke is struggling with depression or anxiety, as he describes the "angry as hell" sunshine and his reluctance to venture outside. He also observes a store selling tickets to leave the area and escape his life, which he realizes is not a helpful solution. Yorke then pleads for someone to "Fly me back now, I think I've messed up", desperate to escape the hopeless feeling of his present circumstances.

The final stanza finds Yorke questioning his own perspective, as he watches locals queue up for a chance to leave the same place he came to visit. This moment prompts him to consider the possibility that he has missed something important about the people and culture he is observing. However, he ultimately recognizes that simply joining the line to leave won't solve his problems. The repetition of the line "This won't help me" throughout the song emphasizes his frustration and despair.

Overall, "Daylight" is a melancholy meditation on the search for purpose and identity in the face of daily routine and existential angst.

This song uses three notes as its bed. The notes are D-E-A. On repeat it spells D-E-A-D. You hear it throughout most of the song.

This song is about Thom’s breakup with his woman. Btw.

Each door he passes through symbolizes a year of their lives together. Ive forgotten the number of doors.

Anyways in the end he crawls into the cold cave where the fire is. I can only picture that as being the state of their relationship. A cold wet cave with warmth in its heart.

Thom repeats the words “i love you fire”.

When played in reverse he actually says “half of my life”. The number of doors symbolized his years with her which summed up to half of his life in their relationship.

This is by far the deepest song i have ever encountered. Mind blown. Its fucking deep.

Thom York you are a treasure upon this lowly ball of mud that we live upon.

To me, this song/video represents one of the great tragedies of humankind. In the video, we can see Thom is looking for something. We don't know what that something is (and probably neither does Thom) but nonetheless he relentlessly pursues it, opening door after door.

The places he ends up in are fairly random in nature, alluding to the idea that very rarely does the outcome of our decisions match our expectations. It's one thing to imagine (daydream) about a better future, but it's another thing to actually live it. Rather than ending up somewhere better, you just end up somewhere else. And the thing you're chasing feels no closer than it did when you started. But you continue the chase anyway because well... "dreamers, they never learn".

This continual process of running away from the past and bargaining with the future is what has got us to where we are today. It's given us running water, cures to terrible diseases and the technology that allows me to share these thoughts with all of you. But make no mistake, we pay a heavy price for this, and it comes in the form of suffering.

An endless suffering that wakes up with you in the morning, follows you throughout your day, goes to bed with you at night and haunts you in your dreams while you sleep. It never goes away.

Towards the end, the music changes to a solemn tone. He's running out of time. He quickens his pace and desperately moves from door to door. But despite his efforts, the thing he seeks never reveals itself. Finally he arrives at a mountain. Death, in the form of a monstrous voice beckons him from the distance. Thom knows his time is up. Instead of running, he climbs the mountain to confront the monster that has taken so much from him throughout his life. But when he finally tracks it to it's cave, he realises that there is no monster. And as he lies down by the warm, cosy fire that welcomes him, he smiles as he realises his suffering is finally over.

This song doesn't offer us an answer to this problem. It simply acknowledges its existence and the role it plays in our everyday lives. But in doing so, it reminds people like me that I'm not alone in this struggle, that everyone experiences it. Consciously or not. And for reasons I'm not sure about, that makes it hurt less. As the saying goes "A problem shared is a problem halved". I hope In sharing this with us, Thom has alleviated some of that suffering for himself too.

Tommy Why So, sorry to tell you and I get you don't understand, but it is happening to you. Thom's character is dreaming back in time to our present tense; a Mal-adaptive Daydream (look it up). His "dream" begins in a man made cave surrounded by shadows of people but ends in a natural cave alone surrounded shadows of flames. He ends in the fetal position just like he did when I was a little boy in the video "Just". He is alone because the only food is other people, and if you recall from Kid A's "Idioteque", "the women and children would be first" and he'd "swallow until he burst". This dream is to see "everything in its right place", because everything has been swallowed by the sea. Ice Age coming.

A few interesting things I noticed:

He almost never walks towards exits. The only times we see him walking towards an exit are the shot of the beach at 2:50, and the final mountain scene at 4:54

Even in the parking garage, he's walking away from its exit--you can see an exit sign on the wall at 3:44.

He always climbs up stairs. Never descends them. Always moving deeper into the building until the very end, where he ends up outside the buildings anyways and in the mountains.

I was in a bar in Florida and they had an empty piano sitting there. In walked a very large Russian guy speaking broken English and he asked the bartender if he could play the piano. He started playing popular show tunes and no one was really paying attention to him . He seen me looking at him and he said to me what would you like to hear and I said I'm sure you don't know the music that I like and he replied try me. I said Radiohead. He started with this song, Daydreaming, and played about 10 songs by Radiohead before he left. I asked the bartender who he was and he said I have no idea I've never seen him before. It was great almost like a ghost walked in played Radiohead and then disappeared. It was an interesting night that I enjoyed immensely.

Probably important to know that in 2015 he and his partner of 23 years split. She passed of cancer in 2016. The year this album was released. He was going through the deepest grief. She was gone. He and his children were left to mourn. It puts this album into focus.

Watch the video again. He is searching everywhere, through every door, in a hospital, ends back up in a home and there is a woman there reading a newspaper ...notice all the times he goes back into this house...looking for that which is lost. When he opens the last door he is in the snow, into a cave. And he has no discernible language to describe it. That’s grief.

I just can’t stop thinking of my high school when I watch this. It was a very painful stage in my life. Everyone avoided me as if I was nothing. Completely invisible. I always smiled and did what I was told until I got to the point I just couldn’t function. During class I’d always be in my own world. In my head. The more I got picked on the more I wanted to stay in my little quiet world. It was my comfort. I could do whatever I wished and wouldn’t be judged. I escaped from them for a bit until it got worse to the point I couldn’t eat or sleep. I was so scared to go to school the next day but I knew when I got home I could speak my own little language that only I could understand

This is actually what daydreaming feels like. You don't look at faces or the places you go, you don't pay any attention at all in the world around you. You open doors and pass lonely and crowded places and yet the only thing that travels through your head is your own thoughts. So the ending is like you finally find the place you were always searching to find or you weren't even searching, you just walked and the place found you.

And everything seemed…magical. Like a fairy tale, like a dream that one experiences with half-closed eyelids. My feet flew above the ground, the rain ran down my cheeks, my eyes observed the waves, the gray of the mountain and the beauty of this place. And slowly, a feeling of beauty, of nostalgia, of pain from this ephemeral moment crept into my heart. One of my most beautiful memories honestly.

She's slamming the door. Parts of the video seem to be mostly about parenthood - mainly about motherhood - if you remember anything about your childhood (or parenthood) (this is to say, in quite many cases, but not all, of course), it's typically one of the hardest bits: the child slamming the door on the parent to be alone while the parent just wanted the best for them and they don't understand it yet. A lot of the imagery during the song's video refers to motherhood as well as parenthood and "over achiever" struggles, or general struggles if you don't just consider a rat race for money fulfilling, even though we all do it. Throughout the video you actually see a combination of references to motherhood and to the albums that Radiohead have done - which I suppose is a culmination of Thom's struggle to make sense of where he should belong in this world.

I think this song is less about Thom's wife, and more deeply about the human journey from birth to death. In the beginning, Thom comes into this world with other souls. Just as life is an endless series of choices, Thom maneuvers through various settings, some symbolic depictions of family life, others symbolic depictions of possibility (hallways), advancements to more mature ways of thinking (stairs) and the recognizing the reality of samsara (laundromat). Then there are experiences of transcendence where Thom has momentary glimpses into eternity, into a reality beyond this life, into self-realization. He looks out of the parking garage at the light outside and wants to know it. Eventually he becomes more frantic trying to find himself, walking through more and more doors, but ending up in the same places, feeling as if he's losing sight of his path. Eventually he goes through the dark night of the soul, the only real path towards self-realization, and instead of searching for the sun outside, he searches for it within. He walks through ice and snow, turns inward (enters a small cave) and finds shelter within himself as he collapses and finds peace by the fire of his own soul. His search ends. What he wanted was within himself the whole time. This is death, but not of body. This is death of ego, this is true understanding of self.

But after that process, she got cancer and passed away 💔 so the lyrics make even more sense to me if they talk about grief, loneliness and desperation for all those years (23 years = 23doors) wandering and losing the track of what is meaningful for him. It's like he filmed this after realising how unfruitful his journey after "the unknown" (another romance, greatness, professional recognition) has been whe he sings "Dreamers, they never learn". Until everything that he took for granted has finally disappeared ("And it's too late, the damage is done")

He deeply enjoyed music with the likes of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and Judas Preist ranking among his favorites but he would listen to almost anything and went to about 600 concerts throughout his life which included Radiohead. When he passed away this was one of the first songs that came to my mind and now I cry every time I hear it thinking about him, watching someone you love so dearly suffer in pain from cancer is heartbreaking; the endless search of answers of why did they have to get it? or why is there no way to cure them? is a type of pain that I hope no one has to experience. I'm only 26 and have never felt this kind of pain and sadness before, I think about my dad from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to sleep, seeing such a beautiful soul taken from me like that has left the largest hole in my heart :(

Stay strong for your pops. He will be with you forever especially when you play this song. I lost my dad the same way at the same age(65). But I was 38 . Addicted to cocaine at the time for about fifteen years.... He never got to see me turn my life around, but i'm almost fifty now and I have been sober for over a half decade. Radiohead was always there for me in the deepest darkest days.

Matt Male yep, it is frightening. We have been programmed to accept only music that is pumped out daily. With lyrics telling us 'live for today and fook tomorrow'. Beats to shake female ass to and for men to watch, get drunk and procreate.
I'm not sure why these guys haven't been assassinated. Probably because the amount of people who love them, will not get in the way of the marketing of the BS music. There will always be more unknowing people than those that know. So, it's not a threat.
This has to change, life is changing and times are changing. Ignorance is not bliss, neither is it an excuse.

This one has passed me by but listening to it I can still hear the sadness, beauty and confusion. Life is complicated but we still keep opening those doors and seeing what happens next and maybe find meaning in that.

Always astoundingly gifted and utterly cerebral, Radiohead created yet an other gem. A song and a clip to match, beautiful and melancholy as life herself. Despite having heard it hundreds of time, here I am, still unsure of what to make of it. Perhaps it is the journey through our life. The path we're crafting through choices of closed doors and intersected corridors. An endless search interspearsed with happiness (Thom's fleeting smile), sorrow (the sad look on his face), stressfull quests (his progressively more quick pace of walking through rooms, as if chased). We ascend (in age?) through flights of stairs and elevators. But the journey and its hardships have their toll on us. The final ascent on the snowy montain breaks us. Crushed (by the difficulties it symbolises), we look for a retreat. We crawl into the narrow cave to seek solace by the fire, only to crumble appart, beaten by her, our glorious LIFE.

This just crushes my heart and head with talent and creativity.
At the beginning, he was slowing pacing through the doors. He even smiled once when he was in a crowded area( a fake mask in front of others/ hiding grief). Then his pace started becoming quicker and more urgent. He preferred walking in the sunlight because it made him feel less lost in his mind. His face throughout all of it screams that he wants to cry out and yell his feelings to everyone but he can’t. His bottled up emotions are evident in his red eyes and twitching lips. He prefers to go out to nature. At first the beach, but no, that place is too crowded. So he ends up in a mountain full of snow. A mountain that describes his feelings: emptiness, cold, pale, unknown. He goes into a cave, a rather small one, contrasting to the massive mountain. It is only then that he opens his mouth and talks. He talks to himself in the small part of his mind where no one is present and no one is aware of the cave’s presence. He talks in a way only he can understand.
This endless loop of going through door to door is reminiscent of the stages of grief. He is stuck in a stage before the 5th and final one: acceptance. He isn’t willing to accept the death of a loved one so he walks away from everyone, puts up a facade in front of others, and doesn’t want to face reality. He wants to go somewhere where his feelings can be accepted. He can’t let anyone know about his unwillingness to forget so he goes to the fire in the cave. And lets out his words to burn. No one will ever know about his struggle because he burned it all in his head. The only problem is that the wound and ashes remained will only be felt by him. He doesn’t want to forget this ever. He prefers to always stay in his own personal “daydream”.

Wow. When I found out my grandfather passed away I drove 3 hours with Radiohead playing. He was 80 years old but it was pretty tragic. It was 12 years ago and a day from today. My family told me that he committed suicide. I still have trouble believing that to this day. I pray that I will find out the truth. I have found out a lot of bad things about my family and a lot has happened to me since. So when you mentioned your family member passing I remembered that Radiohead was playing that night on the way up to my grandfathers house and I listened to this song and it just hit me hard. I'm sorry for your loss. It's never easy. Peace brother ☮️

I don’t think these are random places I think they are places him and his wife had been together before her passing

I also don’t think the video was meant to be played normally. The video was meant to be played backwards. If you play it backwards it starts with thom saying “half of my life, half of my love. 23 years” and throughout the video it’s is him closing the doors he once opened when the video was played normally. Therefore closing the doors of the past and letting go of his wife who he had spent almost half his life with. I personally think this is one of the best videos ever created.

I used to listen to this song when it came out, as a departure from a romantic relationship. But when she passed away, I've unlocked this other meaning: the fact that probably she would have gone forever, and it happened. So sad, but so true and heartfelt too. I hope Thom is doing good enough with that. When you lose someone you can't reach anymore, is something bearely understandable.
