Here Thom tells the story of how he once had a narcissistic friend he was compelled to elude. This song is about trying to get rid of someone who just won't go away. A note about the song written by Thom says the following:

"Just (You do it to yourself)
... went to a party on the 15th floor of a block of flats, passed out at 3am, and woke up an hour later - there was a guy hanging - off his head - out the window saying "i'm gonna do it" took us half an hour to get him back.."

Incase that's German to you, 'block of flats' means block of apartments and 'off his head' means drunk, or stoned.

Musically, "Just" is considered the most complex track on The Bends album, and it proves beyond a doubt that Jonny's guitar playing is original and superb.

A live version of this track is available on the Live Au Forum EP, while it captures the intensity of the song live, the original remains the best.

The video to the song is one of the most frustrating ever written - but nobody knows what the man says at the end, and there is no use asking as the band have said that they are never going to reveal the answer. Jamie Thraves, the producer had said "to tell you would deaden the impact, and would probably make you want to lie down in the road too". You can find out more about the video here.

This is probably the most heavy guitar track on the album. Throughout the back end of the song, they demand greater focus than the vocals. Jonny's riffs are simply ace. This is one of Radiohead's most recognised songs.
