airieslady Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 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! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kackie Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 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: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pseudonym Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 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:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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."

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pseudonym Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kackie Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjaiken Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 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) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

letdown Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 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.
