Videotape is the final track from Radiohead’s 2008 album In Rainbows.
Thom Yorke described the process of composing Videotape as “absolute agony”, stating that the song “went through every possible parameter”. One day, Yorke left the studio, returning to find that Godrich and Jonny Greenwood had stripped the song down to the version found on the album, a minimal piano ballad.

I'm pretty sure this is about a man who is going to commit suicide and he is bringing a videotape to God to prove that he is worthy enough to be in heaven. He also mentions how that if God does not except him Mephistopheles is going to drag him to hell
