Whingy vocals, droning, minimalist-for-minimalism's-sake arrangements. Bleh. I try, I really do. It's on the RP hitlist, and Bill knows great music. But this is my automatic PSD cue. Will nobody call this crap "crap"? This emperor has no clothes. (and ooo, bad English teeth too!) I don't think one can explain it. Like Dylan and so many others, Radiohead tend to be a "love 'em or hate 'em" band. I'm a member of the former camp. ; ) [ Reply ]

Radiohead makes me feel so many good things. The fact that their song structure is unconventional and their singer has a unique approach only adds to the power of my attraction to them. Very well said! [ Reply ]

ScottN Dec 24, 2011 - 10:09	One of Radiohead's songs I really like. A year or two back BillG had this song following Gimme Shelter which was preceded by U2's Bullet the Blue Sky. I called it the "apocalypse set". Bring that back for spin, Bill [ Reply ]

One of my favourite numbas. SO much better live in a lot of ways, and yet the studio version has another element to it that perhaps isn't quite reproduced live. Either way, absolutely love it!

It is not intended to be personal, nor uncivilized; it is facetious: (click here) "> Still no excuse for your comment. As for this song, I must say I like it and Thom Yorke's vocals are nice and don't grate on me like they often unfortunately do. [ Reply ]

Great comment, though, from a fellow Canadian. Understandable. Yes, we must stick together, lol. Seems there are quite a few Canadians on here for how little people live in Canada... Seems like that on almost every website though. I think we're a very connected people per capita. [ Reply ]

Once in while, I've even used big red letters to get my point across. So there you are, Radiohead fans —- this band seems to polarize people into "lovers" and "haters", and we haters, minority though we may be, really, really hate em. "Intensely", as one post put it. After untold thousands of plays of In Rainbows, to the point where I couldn't listen to RP any more, the world has come back into balance a bit and we maybe get RH every six hours or so. I can live with that —- the LRC is only a couple of mouse clicks away. If you can't hear a groove in Everything In It's Right Place, There There or Jigsaw Falling Into Place (or a melody in Karma Police or Fake Plastic Trees) then you need your ears checked. [ Reply ]
