RA D IOHE_AD "IN/RAINBOWS" continuing discussion thread part 9

[phillyfan26]

I can't believe that's all you can come up with on a four hour flight. That's fucking awful. He had a long time to think about that line.

 

[LMP]

I actually absolutely love it, one of my most listened to songs of theirs over the last 5 years or so.

Of course, that could be because it was the ONLY new Radiohead song for about 3 or 4 years...

That's cool. I never got into it; plus, it was one of the first songs I heard by them before I became a really big fan, if that means anything.

 

[cobl04]

On another note; another proof that video clips can make you like a song even more: I just watched Pyramid Song's video and I'm all

This is how I got into Leeemmmaahhhhnn

Anyway, just listened to In Rainbows again... I would make a description, but I'm tired now, so I'll just say:
And, of course, rank the songs:

#1 House of Cards
#2 Nude
#3 Bodysnatchers
#4 Faust Arp
#5 All I Need
#6 15 Step
#7 Videotape
#8 Reckoner
#9 Jigsaw Falling Into Place
#10 Weird Fishes/Arpeggi

Now I'll listen to some b-sides....

That's terrible, sorry.

Finally, none of this is as shocking & disturbing as you not loving Meeting Across the River as much as the rest of BTR.

I love that song!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My favourite after Born to Run, Jungleland.

I think I like Videotape much more than everyone else.

How much do you love it? 'Cos I adore it.

I love Jigsaw, but do not feel that it fits into the overall atmosphere of the album.

This is the problem I have with it too.

 

[LemonMelon]

That's terrible, sorry.

I actually don't disagree with him all that greatly in this instance.

1. All I Need
2. Weird Fishes/Arpeggi
3. Bodysnatchers
4. Faust Arp
5. House Of Cards

[cobl04]

Nude is particularly beguiling. The atmospherics on IR are outstanding.

 

[phillyfan26]

So, apparently they're slated to perform with USC's marching band. Which I can only assume means that they're playing 15 Step.

 

[lazarus]

What's this shit about only Thom, Colin, and Jonny being there?

That's weird. I needs me some Ed O' and Mr. Clean.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

What's this shit about only Thom, Colin, and Jonny being there?

That's weird. I needs me some Ed O' and Mr. Clean.

I KNOW.. wtf.. and why.. I read this too. Is there any answer out there as to why? I haven't found it yet. Been all over atease looking.

 

[phillyfan26]

Yorke hasn't cut his hair in forever and looks like a fucking hobo.

[lazarus]

Hey, could be worse:

Better to look like a hobo than a fucking tool.

 

[phillyfan26]

Absolutely. Yorke beats Martin in every way possible, except unintentional comedy. On that, they're about even.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

or this

 

[lazarus]

Absolutely. Yorke beats Martin in every way possible, except unintentional comedy. On that, they're about even.

And in how much shit he can tie around his wrists and fingers. Although I guess that's covered under "unintentional comedy".

 

[u2popmofo]

Looks like Gickies and I may have our wish come true on no "House of Cards" then. 15 Step with the marching band should be pretty cool, though somewhat cliche at this point. Does EVERYONE have to perform with a marching band at awards shows?

 

[phillyfan26]

A tight battle, but, yeah, that's covered already.

 

[lazarus]

I love House of Cards, moreso than 15 Step, but don't think it would have been a great choice for the Grammy perf. I guess it would have gone over smoothly, but this one's gonna get a lot more attention.

I will say that playing with the USC Marching Band isn't exactly groundbreaking (Fleetwood Mac did this like 30 years ago?). I'd rather see a children's chorus on stage doing the "Yay!" parts.

Thom looks like a creature you'd shoo out of your garden.

exactly...


anyone going to the grammy's that can take a scissors with them to cut his hair with.

 

[u2popmofo]

I no longer like Radiohead, as they've apparently "gone hippy".

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

check out all these pics of the grammys rehearsal!

omg!

[lazarus]

Fuck, is it just Thom and Jonny?

Can't really call that "Radiohead" performing.

i know..


i read on atease that they are doing 2 songs so maybe phil and ed will be there for that song whatever it is.

i like this guy's take on the rehearsal..

 

[lazarus]

Getting blown off the stage by Radiohead may make U2 question their decision to play at this show.

Don't know how they're going to be able to top that.

yeah.. but I doubt U2 will not perform even after this.. Bad PR ain't it to pull out at the last minute (ok this sounds bad don't it.. take it anyway you want i guess. )

 

[LMP]

Bad PR ain't it to pull out at the last minute..

Definitely.
