There is a chaotic and frenzied piece that ensues with a heavy thrashing of drums and symbols and noisy guitaring before a heavenly orchestral segment kicks in that elevates the listener to a different space entirely. It opens with a beautiful acoustic guitar segment and Yorke's falsetto vocal, 'Please could you stop the noise I’m trying to get some rest from all the unborn chicken voices in my head' The song then leads the listener into a dreamy state with luscious keyboards and warm lead-guitaring layering the sound. The robot's brilliant observation: “Here I am with a brain the size of a planet and they ask me to pick up a piece of paper.” The song has many parts. Marvin is a robot who is always depressed because the infinite possibilities within his mind are wasted on repetitive, trivial activities. But what some fans don’t know is that both albums are actually connected. Despite a three year gap in between both albums, Radiohead evolved a lot in between both albums. The song is said to be about a character called Marvin the Paranoid Android in Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Radiohead’s two most popular albums, OK Computer and Kid A, sound nothing like each other. If introducing one to this album, the go-to song that seems to explain the whole record in one go is 'Paranoid Android'. Every track has something interesting to say. OK Computer is like a book full of melancholic and bitter-sweet emotions, that if tapped into correctly, produce an out-of-body experience that both uplifts and soothes the soul.
