Like the threat of something big - nuclear war, maybe. The more I listen to it the more I'm getting the message that it's insincere. Like "hey, get into this bunker where you're safe, I'm not kidding, this is serious." And then... you know, take the money and run. It seems like the world, especially America, will do anything for the illusion of safety - like, for instance, if the government demands more tax dollars for increased military for some supposed "threat", people will fork it over and think nothing of it because they suppose they are paying for "safety". Like I said, just a theory. Hmmm | Reviewer: Mike | 9/2/07 I am thinking its about a nuclear war. Eventually that would cause a nuclear winter (ice age coming) Of course theres parts that dont fit this, specifically (take the money run) Of course that part doesnt seem to go with the rest of the song. Response to Crazy | Reviewer: Josh | 8/25/07 I don't think that this song is talking about golbal warming. Take the money and run? I starting to think that maybe this is talking about some kind of crime. maybe like a murder, cuz there saying women and children first into the bunker. then they talk about that there not trying to scare you, this is really happening. Here I'm allowed everything all the time probably means that He can do whatever he wants because hes a criminal? Let me see both sides of the case. crazy | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/22/07 ive always thought that the song was about global warming i mean if you look literally you can see that? It presents all sides of the debate from those who think the ice age is coming "ice age coming" and when he says "let me hear both sides" its like asking the rest to present their argument like those that believe that the government created the illusion of global warming in order to control the populace and sway them into rejecting energy inefficient vehicles because the gov doesn't want to pay those arabs all this money for oil. "We're not scaremongering, This is really happening" scare mongering literally means to sell fear...so that line would be from the gov's point of view trying to control the thoughts of people. Either way you look at it, its an amazing song. it has an infectious beat and an immensely powerful meaning. anon | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/22/07 ive always thought that the song was about global warming i mean if you look literally you can see that?

I know this may make no sense for some people but it does for me. that when i listened to this song it made me a little trippy but a little more interested. so i kept listening and now i listen to it religiously. And yes i agree with one of the other comments that it has a well meaning of change, but change is something that happens naturally even if we don't think it does it seems to happen of its own accord. For some odd reason this song does not have that complete techno sound to it but enough to identify that way. yeah and the line about he says "ice age coming" means that we must change and move on and learn that we need to find a new way out even if it may cost us something more or less. Idioteque | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/30/07 It makes you think like all the best songs, it puts you in a certain mood for the whole day after listening to it, and you can never get bored of it. amazing | Reviewer: stevie | 7/6/07 this is the most beautiful song ive herd in a long time. Eclectic | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/18/07 A sound far ahead of it's time. Radiohead makes your mind wander to places unimaginable... Idioteque | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/20/07 This is a great song, even better once you see the lyrics. Truly a piece of art done by Radiohead.
