Creation History
The group “Radiohead” first performed the song “Jigsaw Falling on Place” during a tour in 2006; the song had a working title "Open Pick". [1] According to Tom Yorke , the text describes the situation when a person drinks alcohol in order to forget something: “When you are part of a group of people who are trying to massively forget something, then you are partly in a good mood. But there is a darker side. ” [2] Adam Buxton, the director of the music video, said it was a song about how to "be in the city on a noisy Saturday night." [3]

Criticism
“Time” called “Jigsaw Falling on Place” the fifth best song of 2007. [7] Time journalist Josh Tyranjil praised the “slackness” and growing intensity of the song, which he compared to a three-part play. He described the song as "a journey through flirting, completion and regret, which comes as close as possible to summarizing the doomed relationship in four minutes." [8] Drowned in Sound described the song as “easy enough for listening and indirect consumption ... but complex composition under a deceptively simple external brilliance for long-time fans from whom she can get criticism.” [9] The following is written in Clash magazine: “The song is good, but, like the very well-promoted album“ In Rainbows ” , it is (relatively) musically (not) serious. [10] In 2016, Rolling Stone readers recognized her as one of the best Radiohead songs released since the 1990s. [2]
Along with the 2000 Radiohead song "[./ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Everything_in_Its_Right_Place Everything in Its Right Place" "Jigsaw Falling into Place" inspired modern radio composer Radio Rewrite. .
