@PantheonLincoln Really? I mean I respect your opinion, but in my opinion I think HTTT is pretty good, In Rainbows a masterpiece, and that TKOL is just perfection at its best. But yeah, Kid A was an amazing album, no doubt about that.
One of their best performances of this song IMO. Not that it's bad ever, but sometimes Thom's voice is just so worn out (Usually if they play the song at the end of a set) that it takes away some of the magic. Only some though.
To end all arguments, I personally love everything Radiohead has done (including Creep) and it's a common process. 90's rock band, plays heavy rock/grunge for a while, gets bored, decides to turn to electronic experimentation to maintain their fun.
Not having a go, I love Radiohead, just saying it's not unusual.
@jmaguerra I understand radiohead very well thank you very much and I don't appreciate your bullshit elitist attitude. This IS on a whole other level, a much worse one. Creep was the beginning of the plateau of success which is but a memory now.
@knobjockey12 creep is a commercial hit that, compared to the majority of their work it doesn't even sound like it's the same genre. it was a plateau of success the same way most singles are, they work with the masses. i'm not the hugest of radiohead fans, but for me idioteque is way ahead of creep or fake plastic trees, high and dry or karma police.
@knobjockey12 radiohead is my favourite band, and i have to agree with jmaguerra man. creep i personally don't really like (along with most of pablo honey) and fake plastic trees whilst it is a great song isn't nearly as interesting as anything they did post the bends. Back then they were just another band. Now they are the most individual brilliant bands ever.
radiohead isn't popular at all where i live, outside of chicago. I have met one other person who listens to them, and since the only song that people know by radiohead is creep, they all assume they suck. i want to live in europe
@fruitypeebils I'm from Chicago as well, did you got lolla when they were here in Chicago? One of the biggest crowds I have seen……plenty of people love radiohead……especially the college kids
this is scary. i know you guys on the web can be hard but i am trusting in radiohead fans and thus radiohead. i got a channel on youtube and i am trying to get herd. i would love some feedback. its under jeb stuart productions. i aint just piggy backin of a band cause of their name. fckn love these guys. first time i saw them was tibetan freedom. beautiful. im a byproduct.. thank you for listening
@dpthomas37 from what i've seen of these jools holland clips the audience is always quiet and reserved no matter how badass the performance is. the only time ive ever seen anyone in the audience showing any energy during a jools holland performance was thom yorke himself dancing to red hot chili peppers.
Radiohead started with pure rock then introduced the electronics and evolued in a way that no other band did. Their work is so large, diferent and great all the way. That not even the doors did. Its not pop, its not rock, its not thom york either, its radiohead. The greates band of MY time al least. I will have to go to london to see them if they dont come to Portugal soon.
Omg, stfu all of you guys. Just only listen to or ignore Radiohead while its playing. And stfu and leave beattles alone cuz they are dead but legends. simpel
You couldn't be more wrong. The Beatles were highly influential and all that, but there were plenty of bands around at that time that had FAR more influence on modern music than the Beatles (The Velvet Underground, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, The Stooges, etc.). I'm so sick of the Beatles getting all of this undeserved credit. They were great POP song writers. THAT'S ALL. Just because Oasis and Nirvana were on the Beatles' dick, doesn't mean everyone has to be.
@nick4man3 The Beatles were pioneers of many studio sounds/songwriting techniques that we take for granted today. All those other artists did have influence, except for maybe the Stones. I'm a Stones fan, but they've pretty much just done the blues their entire career. Dylan obviously had influence, as did Iggy. The Beatles get a ton of praise because their influence can be felt in most kinds of music today, like it or not.
@LoveisintheStars The Stones did the blues their whole career, but they were one of the first to introduce it to popular music. Their presence is still heard today in bands like The Black Keys, don't downplay them.
The Beatles just wrote great songs, that's all. A lot of people were doing what the Beatles did in the studio long before the Beatles were doing it, and they don't get half as much credit.
By the way, Radiohead rocks. Just figured I'd try to stay on topic.
@nick4man3 You can't praise The Stones for bringing the Blues into mainstream and criticize Beatles for bringing much more specific things into mainstream, from drug use and political expression down to moog synths, excellent songwriting and studio techniques. That's kinda bias. Both had great influnces and both influenced bands, but in the end, The Beatles influenced much more in music from then to now. Thom likes both, but he doesn't cite Ok Computer and HttT to The Stones.
Isn't this a Radiohead video? It's bad enough that I let myself get involved in this stupid argument for as long as I did. I don't like the Beatles, I do like The Stones but more importantly I DO like Radiohead. I love this song, in case you forgot that this was what the video was.
If you want to discuss the Stones vs. the Beatles, find us a forum dedicated to that and I'll be happy to debate you to the death.
@nick4man3 Now you're just degrading yourself. Talking in circles, truley, to just fit your fuel. If you REALLY didn't care to submit bias opinions, you wouldn't have done it in the first place. Don't freak out over a discussion when you're just as much to blame for filling youtube, a place for discussions, with anger and troll-outs. No one said we didn't like Radiohead. I came to watch the video for Idioteque, scrolled down and wanted to discuss with what you were talking about.
@nick4man3 And there's not much more to debate about when you admitted yourself that you "don't like The Beatles" and "like The Stones". That's not much of an discussion worth having.
I'm annoyed by the fact that this discussion has been going on for as long as it has. I will correct myself, I DO like Revolver. I'm not a big fan, I respect their work, but I think their image has greatly surpassed the substance of their music. I feel bands like the Stones, Dylan, and the Velvets did so much more for music than the Beatles, yet they don't even get half the credit.
I think I already made this point forever ago, but I'll repeat myself for your sake. Happy?
@a3dez03 i think it would have been a better comparison if you said if you said the man who creates the wheel doesn't have to make it spin. but good comment :)
the beatles were one of the first thats all. The fact that someone would even want to include those brits with these is just...well not too smart. Radiohead hails frm a different time with a different grasp on music. (the beatles borrowd most of their music) Fuck that shit.
@me4monty "The Beatles borrowed most of their music"? You're right to a certain extent. But over the years Radiohead have also 'borrowed' from many existing styles - including post-punk, grunge, prog-rock, jazz, classical and IDM. Their influences include the Beatles, U2, REM, Penderecki and Miles Davis - all of whom came before Radiohead themselves.
@LantaGem Truth, but in terms of now to then, a dominent majority of songs from the beatles were covers, well they're debut stuff. All the love songs and that jazz, but radiohead is completley their own. No matter how much Thom loved talking heads =D
you havent even listened to the beatles, have you? the beatles and radiohead both encompass enormous qualities of originality. their styles are almost opposite: radiohead is much more ambient while the beatles are obviously much more folky. both are incredibly innovative in style and technology. its like comparing led zeppelin to pink floyd...they are just too different. one cant be better than the other.
i was brought up on the beatles, pink floyd, led zeppelin, alot of reggae and most other classic rock bands because, of course my parents and most of my siblings love them...
i only really enjoy queen, and abba(not classic rock, but good older music)
most old music lacked emotion
it was all just people playing what they thought they should play
ooooh, i like them because i feel the exact opposite way about them. Their emotion and talent seems much more obvious to me than most bands out there today.
@icebud Radiohead have not changed the mainstream enough. I am one of the biggest radiohead fans you will meet, but the beatles defined the 60's. I can't say radiohead have done the same for the 90's or 00's.
Not yet they haven't. Which underlines my point that much more. Their music is so ahead of our time that the 'mainstream' world has a lot of catching up to do. You say The Beatles defined the '60's. Well, I feel Radiohead defined the meaning of music and art. The constantly begged the question "what is art". Besides, I hope Radiohead doesn't become too mainstream. Like Alec Foege said "Art in the traditional sense, is difficult, deep, for a rarefied few; pop music is frivolous, easy, pointless"
the beatles took music and sucked the emotion out of it, made it so poppy and fun and happy and a novelty, radiohead put the emotion back, and soon for the sake of everything that is holy on this earth, i hope mainstream music, or music at all can learn from radiohead and get it back as well.
Hm, I was rather asking how exactly they pushed the boundaries of pop music and what makes them stand out among other bands, as I'm quite uninformed in this area of music.
@twooffour I'm sorry, i misinterpreted you question. This was number 1 in the US as soon as it came out (which may have just been out of anticipation but still). The album was a smash. With it, Radiohead came a Post-Rock-ish band. I mean, of course Brittaney Spears didn't start doing shitty renditions of In Limbo, but this was quite a big deal as far as pop music goes. It was "considered one of the most challenging records to have commercial success"
@MIKEDURSTEWITZ what about what bands like deftones have done with metal? and cursive with indie rock/post punk? radiohead are just the most mainstream band to do it.
@MIKEDURSTEWITZ that's right Oasis always say they are doing it but never do it but Radiohead have pushed the boundaries of popular music and changed what it could be.
@MIKEDURSTEWITZ The only band you could really say has did that besides the beatles and radiohead is pinkfloyd. The rest of the bands that do this aren't very popular thats why it's so amazing that radiohead and pinkfloyd are as popular as they are with the risk they have taken. I think radiohead is easily the most talented and creative band of my gerneration.
yup but I really miss the old Radiohead :S The only band I love like radiohead actually, is one hiting strong in some Italians radiostations not being a million dollar production has a very interesting stuff. Search SWAVE IN THE FUTURE and u will understand what I mean ;)

you havent even listened to the beatles, have you? the beatles and radiohead both encompass enormous qualities of originality. their styles are almost opposite: radiohead is much more ambient while the beatles are obviously much more folky. both are incredibly innovative in style and technology. its like comparing led zeppelin to pink floyd...they are just too different. one cant be better than the other.

i was brought up on the beatles, pink floyd, led zeppelin, alot of reggae and most other classic rock bands because, of course my parents and most of my siblings love them...
i only really enjoy queen, and abba(not classic rock, but good older music)
most old music lacked emotion
it was all just people playing what they thought they should play
atleast thats what it sounded like..

ooooh, i like them because i feel the exact opposite way about them. Their emotion and talent seems much more obvious to me than most bands out there today.

yeah yellow submarine is pretty damn emo.
just a blatant really funny example, NOT SAYING, i dont know more songs by them... because i do

Agreed. Then they solidified their musical status with Amnesiac. In fact, I feel they have surpassed The Beatles on all levels.

the beatles are not the 'Best' rock group,, many bands radiohead included have far more musical talent then the beatles.

@icebud Radiohead have not changed the mainstream enough. I am one of the biggest radiohead fans you will meet, but the beatles defined the 60's. I can't say radiohead have done the same for the 90's or 00's.
a3dez03 1 year ago
Not yet they haven't. Which underlines my point that much more. Their music is so ahead of our time that the 'mainstream' world has a lot of catching up to do. You say The Beatles defined the '60's. Well, I feel Radiohead defined the meaning of music and art. The constantly begged the question "what is art". Besides, I hope Radiohead doesn't become too mainstream. Like Alec Foege said "Art in the traditional sense, is difficult, deep, for a rarefied few; pop music is frivolous, easy, pointless"

the beatles took music and sucked the emotion out of it, made it so poppy and fun and happy and a novelty, radiohead put the emotion back, and soon for the sake of everything that is holy on this earth, i hope mainstream music, or music at all can learn from radiohead and get it back as well.

@twooffour They took the kids who liked Creep and Karma Police jazz music and Electronic music and Post-Rock.
If it wasn't for Kid A i would probably be some tragedy and listen to Katy Perry like the rest of my high-school peers.
Instead, I brood in my room while listening to Joy Division, Sigur Ros, Aphex Twin, Charles Mingus, Boards of Canada and, of course, Radiohead
To make it simple, it was like a gateway drug into so much other music

@MIKEDURSTEWITZ
Hm, I was rather asking how exactly they pushed the boundaries of pop music and what makes them stand out among other bands, as I'm quite uninformed in this area of music.
twooffour 1 year ago
@twooffour I'm sorry, i misinterpreted you question. This was number 1 in the US as soon as it came out (which may have just been out of anticipation but still). The album was a smash. With it, Radiohead came a Post-Rock-ish band. I mean, of course Brittaney Spears didn't start doing shitty renditions of In Limbo, but this was quite a big deal as far as pop music goes. It was "considered one of the most challenging records to have commercial success"

@MIKEDURSTEWITZ what about what bands like deftones have done with metal? and cursive with indie rock/post punk? radiohead are just the most mainstream band to do it.

@pugfuglychris Yes, that's what i meant. It's popular music that redefined what could be popular

@MIKEDURSTEWITZ that's right Oasis always say they are doing it but never do it but Radiohead have pushed the boundaries of popular music and changed what it could be.
No other group today has done that

@MIKEDURSTEWITZ The only band you could really say has did that besides the beatles and radiohead is pinkfloyd. The rest of the bands that do this aren't very popular thats why it's so amazing that radiohead and pinkfloyd are as popular as they are with the risk they have taken. I think radiohead is easily the most talented and creative band of my gerneration.
