Radiohead - In Rainbows - Faust Arp

Radiohead

The Beatles

Pink Floyd

Who gives a shit , they are all EXCELLENT British bands who have influence over every act in music combined

stop the petty arguing :)

"Boxrag" and "atruelover123" - Ever considered the idea that Radiohead could be influenced or inspired by more than one group?

Wild and radical idea, I know but...just give it a thought.

they say Blackbird pie in the song because the picking pattern is the same as in Blackbird by the Beatles. They obviously acknowledge where they get their inspiration from.

While I am certain Radiohead has taken inspiration from the Beatles I would argue that the only time they have ever made it obvious is the similarities between the Sexy Sadie and Karma Police chord progressions and the fact that they claimed Happiness is a Warm Gun was a part of the inspiration for Paranoid Android

Whoa... I was surprised to find so much antagonism in the comments section of such a mellow song. To the people who are spazzing out: crank the volume, close your eyes, and try some deep breathing. It's a song. It's beautiful. End of story.

Peace.

haha. who gives about the inspiration yo.
It's nothing to argue about.
Just appreciate the amazing piece of music that they produced; regardless of its influences.

is about the innovation.

"atruelover", you are either a very obvious troll or need a reality check. If you are not a troll, that's sad. You're freaking out over a comment on Youtube.

If you don't think Radiohead was inspired by Pink Floyd, you should listen to "Lucky". I don't think this song sounds like the Beatles, you apparently do. Get it? I would love to meet someone like you in real life; someone who can't keep their cool over something as trivial as a song.

Don't address me with quotation marks, as though I don't fulfill the meaning of my name. I'm actually a very calm individual; I don't take Youtube seriously, due to the amount of insincere, and in hominid attacks made regularly. I'd rather not debate in a civil, and ultimately formal fashion in regards to something so minimal; people took it too seriously, so I put it in perspective. Homesick Alien, Karma Police, and Electioneering are Beatles-influenced; once again, fuck off.

Lucky and Last Flowers...Then again, I guess when Thom says that Pink Floyd was a big influence for him, I guess it means the Beatles.

Idiot.
