  • Lol I haven't been here in 5 years but I decided to pop my head back in for some nostalgia. Seems like this was my last post so here's an update... I finally saw Radiohead live in Manchester in 2017 a

just saw the culture show thingy,it was only about 5 mins :dozey: but i suppose a little interview is better then nothing.He said some true things....how music is life affirming and hearing a song he loves helps him get through a certain thing in his life.

according to AtEase, he also said that How To Disappear Completely is the most beatiful thing they've ever done...how true, isn't it? (well, along with Pyramid Song) crying.gif

is there any chance you could upload that for me Nik? :P

this song is wonderful :stunned:

 

thanks again for uplodaing Nik.

it's indeed beatiful especially live, and one of the reasons is Ondes Martenot, on which Jonny is playing yes.gif

according to AtEase' date=' he also said that How To Disappear Completely is the most beatiful thing they've ever done...how true, isn't it? (well, along with Pyramid Song) [img']http://www.ateaseweb.com/mb/style_emoticons/default/crying.gif[/img]

 

he did! the interviewer asked ' what song do you want to be remembered for if you were to choose one song?

he said that like you said that how to dissapear completely is because he thought it was the most beautiful thing they had done,well to him anyway, to which he smiled. :lol:

 

it is a very lovely song i love the ending

it is good quality

 

Certainly not ! I agree with Rad-Cold.

Anyway, I think you can submit links to what you want, provided it's about Radiohead.

However, the quality is bad.

bbc show can't be turned on /at least for me/

 

 

:cry:

How To disappear Completely is a miracle :shy:

 

And I love I Will lately... But I think this won't last too long.

Actually, I don't find How To Disappear Completely and Pyramid Song extraordinary : I like them, but not very much, and I know many Radiohead fans love them a lot, so don't blame me you all, but I don't understand... I love many Radiohead songs, but those two, as well as Karma Police, I find good, but not great.

You're a weirdo, Thom Yorke (at least you're not a plantpot)

 

I've had some good times with Radiohead over the years, despite the fact that they have a bit of a reputation for seeing the gloomy side. But they've done me proud in numerous ways: I'll always be grateful for their company during a slew of dark nights of the soul a few years ago; I saw them live at their brilliant best in a marquee in London's Victoria Park; I can pick out not one or two but three songs from OK Computer on my guitar; and I only have to mention to my best mate that for a long time she thought the line 'I'm a weirdo' in 'Creep' was really 'I'm a widow' for us both to convulse with laughter. And wet ourselves. They even furnished me with a celebrity anecdote, after I chatted blithely, obliviously, tipsily and narcissistically away to their bass player at a party, only remembering after several hours to ask him, 'And what do you do?' He was exceptionally gracious.

So you can see it's not really in my DNA to have a pop at the Head's lead singer, Thom Yorke. But I reached tipping point this week when the cheeky little elf spoke out against the disastrous effect that rock stars' addiction to touring is having on the environment.

 

There comes a point when you have to take issue with all this compulsive handwringing and renouncing and abstaining and ask whether you would rather live in a world that has room for Bob Dylan's Never-Ending Tour, now in its third decade, or whether you would like to spend the rest of your life listening to Coldplay concert podcasts (Coldcasts? And would Cast's be Castcasts? Bugger. They've split up.) Incidentally, Dylan has surely stored up carbon karma; his 1975 American tour, the Rolling Thunder Revue, was conducted entirely by train, and produced a journey so memorable that Sam Shepard chronicled it in book form, giving rise to wonderful daily entries such as 'A hundred bucks' worth of Valiums are delivered to the Niagara Hilton like so much Chicken Delight.'

 

But then Dylan is a song-and-dance man. More to the point, he is probably not prey to the nervy and apparently almost entirely middle-class preoccupation with surplus that seems to explain much of the current vogue for self-castigation. Sure, it's a terrible idea to pump rubbish into the air until we're all choking to death and living on leaves and the planet's a dried-out husk; sure, we should all do our bit and rock stars are no exception, and Thom Yorke is a good egg, trying to help. But you also think: all well and good to forswear the jetset lifestyle after you've made your millions.

 

In any case, risk is a vital if sometimes unpleasant part of life, as Petr Cech and Carlo Cudicini can testify, and both Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger have eloquently explained to us. My own trip to hospital this week was necessitated not by a flying tackle but by a moment's inattention in a tapas bar. I stayed standing but my mum didn't, thereby ending up flat on her face and, the following day, in the newly refurbished accident and emergency department of University College Hospital, now much swankier than your average Hilton.

 

Bless mothers. You can't keep them down. Neither do dodgy legs interfere with their inbuilt ability to champion their offspring. So thank you very much indeed to the kind nurses and doctors at UCH, who I have no doubt are reading this column and this newspaper, since they were directed towards it so forcefully and with such gusto.

huh..there's a huge discussion on AtEase after one member declared Thom has deeply dissapointed her after whole Tour interview..

and i still don't get why to that extend, after all he said the others want to continue plus thom likes to talk bs every now and then..i noticed that a lot of memebers there think this is just an excuse for his fear of flying...:thinking:

^^ i saw that thread too on atease....why all the slagging off of his comments...i dont get it.

Last Flowers :heart:

 

Could it be any better?

Actually' date=' I don't find How To Disappear Completely and Pyramid Song extraordinary : I like them, but not very much, and I know many Radiohead fans love them a lot, so don't blame me you all, but I don't understand...

me too

^^ i saw that thread too on atease....why all the slagging off of his comments...i dont get it.

 

yeah..i think that the main reason for this is that in some way thom admitted he doesn't like touring by that fans and all...it's a vibe i get from furious fans.

 

as for HTDC..yeah i find it too simple though Jonny did a miracle when menaging to write a piece for 7 (!!) ondeses at the same time.

 

as for Pyramid song..i find it perfect, pure pure art..:thinking:
