Closing out their four-show run at The O2 in London last night (November 25), Radiohead treated fans to an \u2018Amnesiac\u2019 classic for the first time on their 2025 comeback tour. The track \u2018Like Spinning Plates\u2019 returned to Thom Yorke<\/a> and co.\u2019s live repertoire towards the tail-end of their career-spanning 25-track setlist.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Following the show\u2019s end, fans took to social media to share clips of \u2018Like Spinning Plates\u2019. One X user wrote: \u201cwtf do you mean i just heard like spinning plates live?????\u201d. Other commenters on YouTube wrote: \u201cI hope the attendees appreciate how lucky they are to have got this\u201d and \u201cSo jealous. What I wouldn\u2019t give to experience this masterpiece live.\u201d<\/p>\n

Taken off the band\u2019s 2001 album \u2018Amnesiac\u2019, \u2018Like Spinning Plates\u2019 was the result of Yorke flipping an early recording of \u2018I Will\u2019, as he felt like that take sounded like \u201cdodgy Kraftwerk\u201d. Thematically, \u2018Like Spinning Plates\u2019 was inspired by the early 2000s\u2019 political climate and the feeling of being overwhelmed.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere during Radiohead\u2019s final O2 show of their 2025 run, they performed other classics like \u2018Airbag\u2019, \u2018Jigsaw Falling Into Place\u2019, \u2018Ful Stop\u2019, \u2018Reckoner\u2019, \u2018The Bends\u2019, \u2018Pyramid Song\u2019, \u2018Myxomatosis\u2019, \u2018Bodysnatchers\u2019, \u2018Idioteque\u2019, \u2018Paranoid Android\u2019 and \u2018There There\u2019 among others.<\/p>\n

The night before (November 24), Radiohead introduced the \u2018OK Computer\u2019 classic \u2018Climbing Up The Walls\u2019 into their setlist<\/a>. Other recent additions include \u2018Optimistic\u2019 and \u2018Just\u2019.<\/p>\n

Reviewing the band\u2019s first show at the O2 last Friday (November 21), NME\u2018s Andrew Trendell wrote in a\u00a0glowing five-star report<\/a>: \u201cWhat a show: a visceral energy, a tasteful spectacle, all delivered with a generosity of spirit, Yorke in full rockstar mode as the band trade places to tend to each corner of the venue. For a band once embarrassed by the notion of \u2018arena rock\u2019, nobody does it better. A new album and another night like this can\u2019t come soon enough.\u201d<\/p>\n

Radiohead are taking a\u00a0\u201cbusking approach\u201d to their current setlists<\/a>, by playing \u201cany order\u201d of songs they wish, and whittling down their huge catalogue to \u201cabout 70 songs\u201d.\u00a0The band\u00a0<\/a>are also performing in the round<\/a>\u00a0in the centre of the venue<\/a>\u00a0throughout the run of dates.<\/p>\n

Radiohead have just eight dates left on their 2025 comeback tour<\/a>. They\u2019ll next play four shows at the Royal Arena in Copenhagen in early December, followed by four more shows at the Uber Arena in Berlin to close out the tour.<\/p>\n
