Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead is The Gr8est

[PoomMusicman]

he looks soooo feminine

ironicly.. he had 3 kids

[BinghamIsAnEpicName]

At first I asked myself "how can he see?". Then I realised... he can't :)

[tretastellar]

relax everyone, he is just making love to his guitarr

[Tom64]

Sure Jonny, anyone can play guitar like that! 

[3ColdplayFan]

@Nevordan the guitar he plays in nowdays is identic, but the guitar that he used in reading was stolen in 1996

[SirJackRyan]

Oh, so that is the reason why Johnny sometimes sound a little bit off...

[cobrasaboteur1]

hahah at :22 he's like, "oh shit its gonna hit me"

[TheRocKalinWorld]

@cobrasaboteur1 Hahahahahahahahaha!! "Shiiiiiit that was Closer" 0:22

[traveldea]

actually... the simple plan guitarist is just as good :D

[traveldea]

matt bellamy is better....

[theriggermortis2400]

I wonder what the tab looks like for this version.

[09livvy09]

that poor telecaster has been through so much lol

[soleiloceans]

I'm so glad he didn't break that

[ajarroyave]

he was only pretending to smash it, im pretty sure thats the same one he has today with the sweet honda sticker on it.

[jaffacakesarenice]

@ajarroyave Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this one got stolen along with most of RH's other equipment back around 1995-ish... I remember reading a quote from Greenwood saying "[he's] going to miss it", but the theft may have occurred before this concert (i.e. pre-95), in which case he would have been referring to a different guitar which would mean you were right.

[ajarroyave]

@jaffacakesarenice you might be right. this guitar and the tele in 'in the basement' both have the same finish but it looks like they have wear in different places.

[xXRoMpEcAmInOsXx]

I dont know why, but after watching this, I felt the desperately need of hugging my guitar

[MusicianSmile]

And he use this guitar for 20 years... holy crap, i think he stole Gods guitar

[MrKubas147]

okey thx

[cKunke2]

Hahahahaha... i love the man but he looks like such a chick here

[chuestuart]

jonny.s tele caster really do a VERY great ROLE on RADIOHEAD.. hahahah : ) ilove radiohead! \m/

[stereosanctity7]

Jonny + guitar abuse = sonic youth fan?

[chopperdave13]

Angst! Haha Jonny's the best

[MrKubas147]

name this song plis ? :D

[PlanetAirsoftPlym]

@MrKubas147 anyone can play guitar

[seatucker]

@MrKubas147 anyone can play guitar .. i think

[Raziax4]

My Telecaster got the same treatment... only once... coz i was pissed off.. but eh, Jonny abuses his for fun...! but jesus... i thought he was going to snap the neck there!

[labbern]

That one is real rock and roll!

[SamTalmadge]

I love how Johnny is beating the shit out of his guitar. And Colins just back there. Just being chill.

[MrFreedomGotAnAK]

I feel sorry for his strat...it was violated in every possible way

[MrStringslover]

@MrFreedomGotAnAK it is not a strat..

it is a telecaster sunburst

[MrFreedomGotAnAK]

@MrStringslover true man,true

[PlanetAirsoftPlym]

@MrStringslover telecaster plus tbh

[MrStringslover]

@PlanetAirsoftPlym yes ~

i wish i have that one~

[mynmyself]

i love how phisically akward he can look

[MaxClarkso]

Fuck, Jonny used to look so feminine.

[laDRecords]

Deu a louca!!!!

[1234adster1]

What a musical genius. He can even make a spaz attack sound good......

[gerik999]

His haircut is hilarious :D

[bcbowar50]

Man he looked like a chick back then lol.

[Fma1416]

How the fuck does he do that shit to his guitar, and still use it to this day?

[joeypaint]

@Fma1416 Jonny has I believe 2 Plus's. This one was stolen thou in 95'

[Fma1416]

@joeypaint Oh yeah, I did watch that segment of the interview where he said their van was robbed.

[MrStringslover]

@Fma1416 yeah~~

i wonder~~



[katenzcool]

All hail! Jonny greenwood! All hail jonny greenwood! All hail! Jonny greenwood! All hail jonny greenwood! All hail! Jonny greenwood! All hail jonny greenwood! All hail! Jonny greenwood! All hail jonny greenwood! All hail! Jonny greenwood! All hail jonny greenwood!

[AgusRenguero]

As Chandler Bing would say: "Owhh!! He should NOT be wearing those pants"

[katenzcool]

his hair is glossy

[Heratio123]

@katenzcool he was offered to do a pantene pro-v or whatever shampoo commerical not too long ago

[katenzcool]

@Heratio123 wow what did he say?? is there anything else I dont know about jonny greenwood? I finding out the craziest things about radiohead everyday lol

[horohorosrin]

@Heratio123 Lemme guess...he turned them down? D:

[futurfry]

@matheesha123 spirit desire, spirit desire. spirit desire, suck my balls. sorry i had to get that out

[rogelyosep]

If I tried that, my strap would break, slap me in the ass and say "YOU'RE NOT JONNY FUCKING GREENWOOD GTFO".

[wronganswermcfly]

@rogelyosep i'm sure he has to have strap-locks on =), you'd be crazy to not use them in a show in my opinion

[AustinBrock]

I have the whole Reading 94 concert on my profile, in a full video :).

[biscuitchannel]

cant see him do that with his ondes martenot...

[schoolclothesmusic]

@biscuitchannel lol, in my head, but if i wasnt sick as hell, ol

[mortigitempo3]

**** funny how the whole destroying the guitar thing*** sorry using my iPad and I sometimes think it has a mind of it's own

[mortigitempo3]

Funny how the hole distorting the guitar thing started as a result of Pete Townsend accidentally droping his guitar

[idiotech1212]

The good old mess up your instruments and walk off stage... I'm glad they gained so much popularity from their early days that they probally won't resort to this anymore.

[AnaRitaFLP]

guitar 1 - Jonny 0

I love you, Jonny, but you shouldn't do that to instruments!

[JoyGrenade]

Right, because instruments are sacrosanct. Ever hear of rock & roll?

[TininSkywithDiamonds]

good thing that he didn't kick himself

[Archieman13]

XD collin and his bass 0:34 (opposite much)

[portishead333]

jajaja

[DavidChoiDrumz]

how can anybody not give this video 5 stars?!

[spanishnavax]

He is being rough! He still plays that guitar!

[Maynard0504]

I did the same to my 2 year old cousin, and then I yelled at his parents for trying to stop me.

[Gomba13]

This is so funny! It looks as though he wanted to put that guitar down, but it got stuck to a thread of his shirt and he is just trying to get it undone!

I want his guitar!

[degree7]

WTF are they wearing????????

[robuzy]

i love jonny.. and i hate the word swagger....... but i have to say, jonny greenwood has got the gayest swagger.lol

[jakkmove]

@robuzy that is one of the funniest comments i've seen on youtube

[EndoTM]

[Gigsixstring]

[zpato3]

when a guitar player meet the rodeo

[whynottalklikeapirat]

guitar sacrifice has been old for like 40 years now jeez

[YorkeKin]

to please the guitar gods of ancient

a sacrifice of a seasoned axe is needed

[andyrawsyou]

Well,,,, all I can say is: That wire was dammmn strong! ;)

[jakeforking]

[martino00001]

in fact he did NOT destroy his guitar..it just has had to be tuned a little more than usual..

[sukrat69]

yeah martino00001, u're totally right!

[BlakkDuv]

Your hardcore

[cerebralcortez]

[RocknRollisDead1]

HAHAHA

[plamata]

[yumaddah]

[Odieandgarfield]

@plamata I know the feeling. Fuck.

[HurtStrings]

[paulio2293]

[tara2berry2]

lol exactly, right?

[HurtStrings]

@paulio2293 This made me LOL. and then I felt bad for you... for a second. Then I LOL'ed again. Radiohead is the best , Jonny is genius.

[seapockets]

@paulio2293 LOL this is the greatest youtube comment i have EVER read. thank you for this.

[tavorocker666]

@paulio2293 Remember !! Anyone can play guitar... lol

[headline747]

Now I know why AMG cites Suede as an influence on Radiohead

[Luvinhas]

Really Nice Said xD

[thebarefootexec]

[HohMahGawd]

[radioivan18]

[willobeen]

They lived through the 90's :P

[bubblepopelictric]

[travroy]

I would be afraid of hitting myself in the face.  ouch.

[franklincountymud]

straplocks should use this as advertising.

[calebskee]

[Seriously3000]

[AustinBrock]

I have this concert on my profile in 'HD/HQ' :)

[ed1art54]

jonny's clothes were.... *no words*

[nirvanafan12345670]

does jonny have any other guitars other then that tele and the starcaster

[RaveyRaveyClub]

probably, but he has a couple of teles, he uses different ones for different songs.

[cheggerz666]

@nirvanafan12345670 Seen him with a Les Paul Gold top!

[cheggerz666]

@nirvanafan12345670 Seen him with a Les Paul Gold top!

Check my Nirvana/Radiohead vids out thooo =]

[cannabisabuser]

I love how they just performed that song, and waved the guitar around, as to show the irony of what they did compared to the song.

[icloo]

Nice solo!

[agusformol1]

johnny es grunger xD

[whathitz]

0:08 LOL!

[PucaloXD]

Lol!

[funkit22]

that was fucking gay

[maricorleone]

is that guitar the same telecaster he uses nowdays?

[zerochance01]

yep he mostly uses just that one....how cool is that?

[maricorleone]

I believe he's more careful nowdays.. eheheh

[psybard]

Actually, this one was stoeln in 1995 along with all RH's gear, so ...

[WellLSnakepit]

\/ Sua mãe é uma puta. /rs

[biachan4]

OMFG!

que biba enlouquecida! (2)

[BabyG18]

i love his hair..

[anakonna]

Haha! I Jonny looked so goofy, that I can't stop laughing.

[RafaHen88]

que biba enlouquecida!

[rocketbanks]

AMazINg.....!!!!!!

[dandansailorman]

he is breaking his guitar... i think he looks like a bit of a dick with his hair aswell, you cant tell which side of his head is the front

[kafeipoa]

AWESOME. J. Greenwood is the best! :D

[malachidjl]

He kinda looks like Emo Philliips in this video, he's brilliant but seems a bit dorky in this.

[21rush12]

I wanna see them do this today. THAT would be something

[treesapa]

y he smashing guitar and stuff?

[tusspot666]

Because it was the 90s.

[TheRealAutosonic]

Go, Jonny, go go go!

[OlympiaOverdrive]

His hair is brilliant, Thom's too.

[artvandelay13]

oh goodness that hair... jonny AND thom....

[Davepumpkinhead]

Just something I'd like to express after reading a few pages of these comments.. Music isn't all about technical skill or knowledge of music theory! When you get right down to it, it's the art of maniputlating precisely crafted (or not even!) tools of pitch we call instruments to create sounds that appeal to our ears! My biggest concern is that what ever it is you do, you put your heart into it!

[Adamodevadam]

He's gay... who cares...

[superjuan07]

johnny is the man. he looks like a girl without tits from the sixties on this one though

[johny85]

of course he's not a gay. His dad died when he was 6 years old. He had only mom and older sister. And Colin, obviously. But maybe this is the reason of his behaviour.

[futurfry]

@johny85 but he admitted it before, in an interview. hes actually bisexual, and so is colin

[ThomComputer]

@futurfry who are you trying to convince? asswipe

[futurfry]

@ThomComputer im not even the one who said it, jonny said hed rather not say the gender of his old partner. your mad that im suggesting that? are you a homophobe? i might not even be right! (i might be wrong)

[ThomComputer]

@futurfry well okay i'll believe you if you show some evidence to back up these bold statements about both of the greenwoods! :)

[XmissXalyssX]

@ThomComputer Well... I actually have a bit of an article of Colin talking about it... if your really are that interested. I could pm you the link. I don't have anything about Jonny though.

[megaponchogdl]

RADIOHEAD RULES, BUT WHY Jonny Greenwood LOOkS LIkE GAY AT THE END OF THE VIDEO!!!

IS HE GAY?

WHEREVER HE PLAYS GUITAR EXCELLENT!

[gpnicholson]

erm... jonny is married with children...

[megaponchogdl]

ok i was just kidding about it!

thanks anyway!

[benciano]

that was pretty good (=

[iToUchEY]

I don't think that's the same one.Radiohead had their equipment stolen on tour for the bends.His guitar was stolen to.

[AwesomeBuddy12]

They found the ppl that stole it, and he got his guitar back.

[iToUchEY]

Mainstream appeals to people of a general demographic,I don't think radiohead appeal to the average person.They are successful in there genre not particularly everyone.

[WarDemon282]

Define "average person." Average person is so vague that it should never even be used in an argument.

[iToUchEY]

Having a successful album automatically is mainstream?I don't think so.

[WarDemon282]

Um... yes. What does mainstream mean if not popular music?

[iToUchEY]

Wow radiohead not excelling at there instruments thats a lough.Just because sothin isnt difficult that dosent make it any worse.Jonny greenwood can make somthin simple sound great.And do you hear phil's timing on idioteque,hes play to a freaking synth.And them being mainstream is bogas.I mean they were in the 90's but listen to a track off in rainbows and see.

[WarDemon282]

Do some research on just how many albums of In Rainbows were sold. If that isn't the definition of main stream I don't know what is.

[mortigitempo3]

also your being a hypocritical faggot rael you just said that you "looked back a few pages" your stalking his comment and its really sad. and what type of music do you listen too it must be some really gay shit

[AwesomeBuddy12]

Anyway Radiohead Rule!

[mortigitempo3]

Also rael radiohead is not mainstream that was kind of stupid of you to say and to comepare them to fall out boy is fucking retarded. Radiohead avoids mainstream anything. They dont do singles, rarelly do videos and do not seek the celebrity life style. your proseption of radiiohead must be of this video only because the are a totally different band now. dont say shit without knowing anything.

[WarDemon282]

Radiohead is mainstream as fuck. Just because they manage to pass off the facade of being unique doesn't make them less mainstream.

[AwesomeBuddy12]

Wardemon, go play your gay video games you dont know a shit about music and you dont even know how to play an instrument, so stay out of this tool.

[WarDemon282]

I like your idea that the only way to listen to music is to actually be able to play an instrument. And if you're going to argue musical skill to me, then you have no right talking to Rael, as he clearly possess far more technical talent than you.

[AwesomeBuddy12]

Are you and rael gay or somethin? I dont real care if he has more or less talent then me. You are a annoying nerd who sits on a computer all day with no talent. So shut up and get off youtube.

[Rael0505]

Lol, you call me the nerd? I've looked back a few pages and it looks like you stalk this video for negative comments to refute. You shouldn't be talking.

And I can tell just by listening that Radiohead does not have any difficult songs.

[mortigitempo3]

fine play jonny's part of paranoid andriod then play his part on Just and then play his part on bangers and mash

[AwesomeBuddy12]

I wasnt even talking about you, idiot. Even if radioheads songs are difficult or not, their still a good band. And theres nothing you can do about it.

[AwesomeBuddy12]

I think its funny that you didnt comment back to that Steve Vai comment i posted, or that comment when i said you listen to gay music. I know why... because you know you listen to GAY music.

[Rael0505]

I don't see how Vai's music can be gay, especially considering how he possesses a vastly superior knowledge of both music and his instrument than anyone in Radiohead. Playing multiple instruments doesn't matter if you can't excel at a single one.

Besides, just look at this video. How can you honestly say these guys aren't gay and Vai is? Just look at how overtly feminine they all are.

[AwesomeBuddy12]

Im not even talking about vai, im talking about that inuyasha and sonic stuff you listen to, i mean who listens to that shit.

[Rael0505]

Rather than looking at a single video on my channel and assuming I listen to "Inuyasha music" maybe you should look in my favorites and see the kind of music I've been listening to instead.

Anyway, you're not standing very strong yourself. You're defending your favorite band on a video where he swings his guitar around by the strap and steps all over it. Do you think it's cool or something? Why don't you try to defend them on a video where they're actually being respectable?

[AwesomeBuddy12]

Explain hendrix, he smashed his guitar way more then radiohead did, oh yeah btw jonny wasnt trying to break his tele, he was trying to making the noise for the song, he didnt try to break it at the last bit of the video. And he's still useing that same guitar today.

[WarDemon282]

Just because Hendrix did something doesn't make it respectable. The man died by drowning in his own vomit, that doesn't make it a good thing. Him being a great musician doesn't make your argument any less invalid.

And what noise was he trying to make? That barely audible buzzing sound that could have been replicated ten other ways?

Anyway just because he uses a similar guitar now doesn't make it the same one. The neck noticeably bends and then he leaves the guitar on stage.

[AwesomeBuddy12]

he is useing that same guitar today. he only has two telecasters, and one of them is that same one. and he didnt bend the neck.

[catmann3]

jonny greenwood isnt gay, hes married to sharona greenwood. fucking homophobes
