Saw these live supporting The Flaming Lips. Had never heard of them before, but it was the highlight of the concert. They're great live. Strangely entertaining watching a band perform in full surgical outfits. I bought this album as a result which was on constant play for weeks after that.
Pity The Flaming Lips couldn't keep my interest after that!

I don't know if I would have thought of that myself, but since you said it, now that's all I hear. I, too, feel love. |

The main reason why I listen to Radio Paradise is that my only radio is an old Grundig beauty from the 40s and its frequency range is 88-100 MHz. The only cool radio station here is on 102.4MHz, so I would have to listen to either classical music, German folk music (which is very annoying) or a whole bunch of terrible local radio stations. Songs like this make me turn on my radio again.

Radiohead without all that genius baggage.  |

Have never heard Clinic before that I know of - thanks for the turn on RP!  |

I'm a big fan of this song and finally bought the CD - the rest of it is similar, with some additional great tunes. I blame RP for increasing my music vocabulary, but I agree it would be good to hear a few other tunes from the album.

I think he's referring to "Everything In It's Right Place" from Kid-A. No guitars, similar atmospheric bass tonal keyboards, similar tambor on the vocal. But, yeah, not NEARLY as good.

The fact that there's not a guitar to be found on this track is a start. Not to mention the vocals are completely different.
Am I missing something? :???: |

Once Upon A Time in the West maybe? ;) |

Anyone else think the harmonica player's trying to imitate Pat Metheny's moaning guitar sounds?

yup, the guy singing sounds just like radiohead's singer...
sad how some can't listen beyond the bloke with the mike.

i don't think that it sounds a thing like radiohead. not sure where you're getting that. but yeah, its getting a little overplayed...

I'm surprised that no one has posted that this sounds EXACTLY like Radiohead only not nearly as good. Oh well.  |

I don't think once a day is too often for a song of this beauty. |

As much as I love this song I hear it virtually every time I listen to RP.

Instrumental portions sound a lot like Bronski Beat and Soft Cell from the mid 80s (Jimmy Somerville and Marc Almond, respectively).
But it's a catchy tune. Wonder what the rest of the album sounds like.

Boy this song is great. Not sick of it at all. As others have said, this song is infectious. Just increased my rating.
Is commericla radio playing this? I listen so infrequently these days thanks to RP, DISH stations (jazz, classical and big band - their adult alternative channel is weak) and my own mp3 and cd collections. Anyway, this SHOULD be on the radio.

Reminds me a little of R.L. Burnside and the whole techno/blues thing. Gotta love that harmonica :)

Another album I bought because of Radio Paradise (what's that, about 20 this year?!). It's good from start to finish, although I read their first release is supposed to be even better.  |
