@TheNatedogg56 most definately written pre pablo honey but released on one of the singles/eps from that album. The band rarely plays any of that albums material now but songs like ripcord and anyone can play guitar still hang with some of their modern stuff. I must say I love every album except king of limbs, it's just too much tech for me
@dcthegreatest24 Yeah, The King of Limbs took 3 or 4 good songs, and played them with the most god awful instrumentation I've ever heard. There's one song (I forgot the name) that I really want to like, but the whole time there's this sound of something like a coin shaking in a can and it ruins it for me.
26 people, died an ugly death, get you nowhere, just gave up, wont stand up, arent a great loss, had their face flown off, had their skinf peeled off, found enough coke to jack themesleves off, and left this message for us.
I've always interpreted this as they were 'predicting' Michael Jackson's death: he was 'the king of the pop' (Pop Is Dead) and Thom is with his face painted in white.
they are like prophets..... pop IS dead now... but it wasn't 15 years ago.... they also said music industry will collapse.... and still waiting for that. won't be long
I think most of us can agree the video isn't any good, although I like the song personally. I feel bad for them that they had a point in their career where they had to make this video, but then again it shows how far they've come. They call no man mister, not anymore.
The only horrible part about this song is the video. And to an extend some of the voice passages. The instrumentation at the end is mind blowing though, just like almost all Radiohead songs.
@joshwa12341 I'm just saying that 'awful' is maybe a little far. I'd reserve such a word for the music of the little boy we are so lucky to have gracing the background of this particular youtube page. Agreed?
@FuckThisShit422 Oh and its the first time i've seen this video, and heard the song actually and it doesn't seem like something Thom Yorke would do. He doesnt even like High and Dry so God knows what he thinks of this now.
I dunno why everyone is freaking out about this particular song being bad. I actually quite like it, it's their new stuff that really isn't all that great.
@xRyan5 Terrible... WTF???? Radiohead 90s stuff was phenomenal that led to their greatest album in OK Computer. Way better than what they produce nowadays.
@MegaLoveMusic77 Their 90s stuff was phenomenal, but this is just plain bad. I think this is one of the only songs by Radiohead that I really dislike.
@xRyan5 Yeah! I don't disagree with your statement as this is their weakest song from that era, but I actually really like it as it's better that most songs nowadays :-)
@MykeMetyll *head slap* Judging by your name, you should look up 'Blow out live at astoria" I think you'd appreciate that. The last few minutes are fucking incredible. "Inside my head" would be worth looking at too.
@Slandarich the comment section was made for everyone's opinion and you can say whatever you want to say and that also means that I can say you're full of shit.
and considering some of the shite on your channel you really can't judge.
Don't hate the song like so many people. Not the most 'artsy' or deepest Radiohead song by any measure, but if you can't have fun playing along to that guitar line, something's wrong.
this is a cool memory for me - 1993, I was introduced to Rediohead and this was one of the tracks I first heard, along with Creep and Banana Co.. A fling who supported them in one of their first gigs in Oxford. I still love them, the fling is god knows where!
Pop isn't dead, but pop bands themselves die all the time. Take the Jonas brothers for example, DEAD. Rock may not be as popular, but once a rock band is noticed they always have a strong core audience.
this song is awwwright because even though it's bad, it's p. catchy AND it isn't boring so...it's automatically better than anything nickleback could ever achieve
It's mind blowing that a band could go from making songs like this or "Anyone Can Play Guitar" to songs like "Like spinning Plates" and "The Amazing Sounds of Orgy".
The only one that looks the same as they do now is Jonny, Thom has different hair and a completely different look, colin had hair as long as Jonny's and phil still had what is more or less a full head of hair.
