I don't like Radiohead

[Headache in a Suitcase]

i know... it's blasphemey to admit... but i just really can't get into Radiohead i don't think they're bad... i just can't do it. i've tried, 'cause people keep telling me about what i'm missing... but it's just not happening. anyone else in my boat?

 

[Bonochick]

I haven't tried to get into Radiohead. I don't have any of their albums, and I've only heard a few songs.

 

[Chizip]

yes, i also dont realy understand what all the hullabaloo is about

but im sure radiohead fans will tell you thats because you dont know how to appreciate good music

 

[Laura M]

I only like some radiohead songs, some of their songs I find completely bizarre

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

then you all have crappy music taste and will burn in hell forever with all your celine records while being tortured by PITCHFORKs













i'm good with the puns, eh?

 

[Bonochick]

Somebody just started a thread at another message board I frequent about how they dislike Radiohead. Deja vu!

 

[Laura M]

i'm good with the puns, eh?

No

 

[Hewson]

Not a huge fan of them. Though "There There" almost got me to buy Hail to the Thief, almost.

 

[~LadyLemon~]

It's ok headache

After all...you listen to U2 on the crapper

yeah i saw that on the celine deon board as well

 

[Laura M]

you spelt Celine Dion wrong Chizzer

 

[Sicy]

For the longest time I couldnt stand them. Especially Knives Out. deathbear kept trying to get me into them and I kept saying 'but the guy just whines.. he sounds horrible!'

It took The Bends to get me into them. Maybe The Bends would work for you too.

 

[joyfulgirl]

I will eat you alive.

 

[zonelistener]

I will suck you down to the other side

didn't I have some silly confession about Radiohead too.

Damn that deathbear for introducing me to Radiohead.

 

[JessicaAnn]

I too am just starting to get on the Radiohead bandwagon ...

Kid A ... my first purchase gets a big

 

[DiscoJokeX]

Radiohead is the kind of band that either does it for you, or you think its bizzare.

I also think that you have to listen trough an album several times to like it.

 

[joyfulgirl]

Damn that deathbear for introducing me to Radiohead.

If he'd been a dog
They would have drowned him at birth

I haven't tried to get into Radiohead. I don't have any of their albums, and I've only heard a few songs.

Ditto.

 

[joyfulgirl]

I haven't tried to get into Radiohead. I don't have any of their albums, and I've only heard a few songs.

Somebody in the ICDE needs to do something about this immediately.

 

[Bono's shades]

I only have OK Computer and Hail to the Thief.

Some Radiohead songs are amazing, but there are some that I would just as soon skip.

 

[IWasBored]

i like them and i'd put them on a list of mauybe my top....25 favourite bands.

but i'm by no means the fan that many people here are. i like them, but i can't get obsessed. i like pablo honey too much or something.,..

 

[beegee]

my new years resolution is going to be
to become the second biggest radiohead fan ever.

this is a true story.

 

[Edgeman]

yes, i also dont realy understand what all the hullabaloo is about

but im sure radiohead fans will tell you thats because you dont know how to appreciate good music

You obviously don't appreciate good music.

 

[TiaraGurl]

I like them quite a lot but not asmuch as some people. I enjoy watching Thom yorke dance around.

 

[AcrobatMan]

Admitting it for the 1st time - Radiohead is my band no 1 - have all radiohead albums

You need some time to get into radiohead

These are some user-friendly radiohead songs. try them first.

street spirit
fake plastic
high and dry
no surprises
there there
creep
national anthem
true love waits

And as you will listen more and more, you will begin to like songs like knives out, dollars and cents etc. I absolutely love all radiohead songs. For the sake of completeness, let me mention that "Let down" is my song no 1 ever by a long long way.

You need some time to get into radiohead

perhaps Radiohead needs some more time to adjust their music to my personal liking

 

[ILuvLarryMullen]

I'm in the same boat as BC.

Maybe I'll ask for a Radiohead CD for x-mas

 

[AcrobatMan]

perhaps Radiohead needs some more time to adjust their music to my personal liking

Oh I love Radiohead...well not all of it but there's some songs where I'm like WTF was he smokin, but there's some other songs that make me practially wail. Like Street Spirit. Radiohead songs are great to hear when you want to get like really depressed LOL. Thom Yorke is a genious and a weirdo as well.
