i really like the bends album. the first time i heard Just which conincidently was the first time i saw the video (one of the best vids) i instantly loved it.

now...i'm not a big radiohead fan. i think since the bends their music has gotten a bit strange for my likeing.

i haven't heard the boots of their concerts in europe that they previewed some of their new songs, but i hope they are going to do something a bit more like the bends and a little less weird.

sorry to everyone who is big OK computer/amensiac fans but it's just the way i feel.

BTW....what does everyone think about the "just" video? why do you think they are all laying down in the street in the end?
 
I don't know about the just video, however, I have heard the new songs and they are not a return to the bends. the good news is that they are all real songs, not some bullshit filler like pull/pulk or hunting bears.
to me they sound like an extension of amnesiac.

I guess we'll wait and see.
 
well, jofo i agree, but i cannot hide my enthusiasm for these new songs.

there there is my favorite at the moment. i cant wait for a studio version of this song.

treefingers was great at the end of how to disappear, except it may be even better before that song, if it were placed like that on the cd...

I like that idea of treefingers as a prelude to htdc.

*makes remix*
 
I listened to The Bends for the first time in a long time yesterday.

It tasted so good. Who are my real friends? Have they all got the bends?
 
hey, find me that Default and Bon Jovi thread that was posted ages ago. i need a good laugh. that would certainly help.
 
haha, just type bon jovi, nickelback, default, whatever. i think we both could use a hardy laugh, old boy!
 
limb by limb and tooth by tooth tearing up inside of me
everyday everyhour wish that i was bullet proof
wax me
mould me
heat the pins and stab them in
you have turned me into this
just wish that it was bullet proof
so pay me money and take a shot
lead-fill the hole in me
i could burst a million bubbles
all surrogate and bullet proof
and bullet proof
 
i get home from work and you're still standing in your dressing gown
well what am i to do?
i know all the things around your head and what they do to you.
what are we coming to?
what are we gonna do?
 
you never wanted me that way
now the dogs have had their meat
i think I'll go plug in the mains
 
where do we go from here?
the words are coming out all weird
where are you now when i need you?
alone on an aerplane
falling asleep beside the window pane
my blood will thicken
i need to wash myself again to hide all the the dirt and pain
i'd be scared but there's nothing underneath
and who are my real friends?
have they all got the bends?
am i really sinking this low ?
my baby's got the bends
we don't have any real friends
i'm just lying in a bar with my drip feed on talking to my girlfrien waiting for something to happen
i wish we could be happy
i wish i wish iwish that something would happen
where do we go from here?
the words are coming out all weird
where are you now when i need you?
they brought in the cia
the tanks and the whole marines to blow me away
to blow me sky high
my baby's got the bends
we don't have any real friends
i'm just lying in a bar with my drip feed on talking to my girlfrien waiting for something to happen
i wish we could be happy
i wish i wish iwish that something would happen
i want to live and breath
i want to be part of the human race
race, race, race
 
Have you ever immersed your soul in love before?

I tried it once. Only once.
 
i don't want a be crippled cracked
shoulders, wrists, knees and back
ground to dust and ash
crawling on all fours
when you've got to feel it in your bones
when you've got to feel it in your bones
now i can't climb the stairs
pieces missing everywhere
prozak painkillers
when you've got to feel it in your bones
when you've got to feel it in your bones
and i used to fly like peter pan
all the children flew when i touched their hands
when you've got to feel it in your bones
when you've got to feel it in your bones

That's OK. It pleases me to no end that you actually tried it. :lmao:
