Just
Radiohead · Radiohead: The Best Of [2008]
He's been hanging round for days
Comes like a comet
Suckered you but not your friends
One day he'll get to you
And teach you how to be a holy cow
You do it to yourself, you do
And that's what really hurts
Is that you do it to yourself
Just you and no-one else
You do it to yourself
You do it to yourself
Don't get my sympathy
Hanging out the 15th floor
You've changed the locks three times
He still comes reeling through the door
One day I'll get to you
And teach you how to get to purest hell
You do it to yourself, you do
And that's what really hurts
Is that you do it to yourself
Just you, you and no-one else
You do it to yourself
You do it to yourself
You do it to yourself, you do
and that's what really hurts
Is that you do it to yourself
Just you, you and no-one else
You do it to yourself
You do it to yourself, yourself, yourself.
Just - Radiohead
Released on the compilation album Radiohead: The Best Of, 'Just' stands as a pivotal track in the band's evolution from alternative rock to electronic experimentation. Featuring Thom Yorke's distinctive vocal delivery and a driving, repetitive rhythm section, the song captures the group's signature blend of indie sensibilities and avant-garde production techniques. As a staple of their discography, it exemplifies the atmospheric tension and rhythmic complexity that defined their work during the mid-2000s era. The track remains a defining moment in the history of modern alternative music, showcasing Radiohead's ability to deconstruct and reconstruct familiar song structures into something entirely new.
