Cool!

I don't think anyone out there has Thom Yorke voice and songs don't sound right without him! It is cool though hearing someone else sing RH songs .... but not as good. I can listen to Thom voice everyday... and I basically do! :)

me too!

His voice is very good and 100% unique

Okay, okay, I'm coming out of hiding... and straying from the Chris thread for a moment... to express my thoughts.

 

Maybe before I wasn't human.

 

Maybe before I was deaf or dumb.

 

But FINALLY I have realized just how amazingly brilliant Radiohead is... (actually, discovered this several months ago but haven't been on the net much). And I had to drop a note in the Yorke thread to say... the man is just freakin' brilliant. The whole band is, but as this is a Thom thread, I'm especially mentioning him.

 

I know I'm late on the train but better late than never. One of my customers early in the year found out I didn't know Radiohead, and went out to his car, came back a few minutes later and handed me In Rainbows. It took me some time to move backwards but I finally have and WOW!

 

I noticed someone posted the Jonathan Ross interview with Radiohead. That was the first interview I saw with them when I looked them up on youtube... I love Jon Ross and that interview was hysterical. Wow.

 

Anyway... wow again... and I hope you will welcome me over to this side of the board lol.

 

and a few prezzies:

 

 

 

ooops! Double post!

 

and to make my double post not be quite such a waste... another pic!

 

So has anyone ever written a biography about Thom Yorke? I would absolutely love to read about the intimate details of how that man thinks and lives his life.

 

 

If I become an author someday I will try to contact him and let me write a bio for him:cool:

 

(he'll say no:rolleyes:)

I think he is Amazing Hes writing is really something but whats up with hes eye????

I think he is Amazing Hes writing is really something but whats up with hes eye????

idk, but it fits him perfectly. if anyone could get away with a weird eye like that it's him

"At birth, his left eye was fixed shut; the doctors determined that the eye was paralyzed and that the condition was permanent. Yorke's parents took him to an eye specialist, who suggested a muscle graft. Yorke underwent five eye surgeries before he was six years old."

Wow, I didn't know he had all those surgeries! Poor kid! He is such a great guy and has overcome alot. I knew he had a lazy eye, but jeez, he went through alot as a kid! Then he worked with crazy people in a psych hospital when he got older. Probably explains why he has written such intense stuff over the years.

Not to mention his obsession with health, like in bones.

freakiest song ever

Thom Yorke - (Jonny+Ed+Colin+Phil)=Fail

Thom Yorke - (Jonny+Ed+Colin+Phil)=Fail

I have to agree. He's a genius, but that band is perfect the way it is and would fail even if they lost one member

I have to agree... sometimes strange things that happen to a person make them even more perfect for what they'll become... look at David Bowie! His eyes appear to be different colors because one is always more dialated than the other. It's part of what makes him awesome... at least to me anyway :D

Thom Yorke - (Jonny+Ed+Colin+Phil)=Fail

 

Fail in what sense?

 

Correct, it is no longer Radiohead. But I would support Thom Yorke as a solo artist (like the Eraser).

 

It's the same thing with Eddie Vedder. I prefer he stays in Pearl Jam, but he is so freaking talented I would buy his solo projects (like the Into The Wild CD)

Do you not like the Eraser?

you guys probably know about coldplay having a grammy advertisement, but Thom has one as well:

that's fantastic!! I noted some Verve songs in there... I love the Verve also :D

Do you not like the Eraser?

 

i hate when thom fucks shit up like he did to Cymbal Rush studio version. i was so excited after hearing the live version but so irritated when i got the album. i don't care for his fondness for all things electro. to me it sounds like shit.

Just out of curiousity, as I've never heard it, where did you hear the live version of that song, Letdown?
