Point taken.

Please provide me with some of this music you and other users are referring too, Bangers from Hanson if you would.

munxx, sorry to break your bubble, but as hard it is for you I'm a big fan of both. I own every album Radiohead have made, and every album Hanson have made. It's just a matter of there being music to suit different moods and needs. Radiohead caters for different needs than Hanson, but also, Radiohead wouldn't be suitable for all days and moods.

They did not get fired. They wanted to leave, and this is a fact. Check out Strong Enough To Break, the doc.

eeramohd - it's not so much that Hanson fans can not understand Radiohead, but that a genuine Radiohead fan would not be able to understand Hanson. A genuine Radiohead fan would not have any patience, tolerance or appreciation for a band such as Hanson who have absolutely nothing to offer when being compared to Radiohead.

Is your favourite song "creep"?

paolo929, well of course there is a bassist, 'cos none of the Hansons play bass. But what's wrong with that? Oly natural to have a bassist there.

Umm, I started listening to Radiohead the same year as Hanson, 1997, so I've heard both kinds of real music. Kid A is in my all time top 10 albums.Yet Hanson's The Walk makes my top 5 for 2007.

Hey guys, Hanson fans know real music. Go listen to Hanson's albums Underneath and The Walk, then you'll see who Hanson really is. We are the kind of fans who appreciate music, and understand it, and love it. Just because you know "MmmBop" doesn't mean that's how they still are. Please take a listen at their new stuff....... btw, about 90% of the fans like music from 1950-2000. Also, are into indie music. We're not what you think.

One of my favorite covers that they have done. I've loved Hanson since '97. They're actually really good. Most people just can't get past MMMBop.

the worst part about this vid is that there's fans screaming in adoration and they've probably never heard the song before.
