David Byrne is so close with the band Radiohead that he can refer to it by the band's first name Radio.
LMFAOO
Haha. I just thought I would revisit the video coz of your comment! 🤣
Lol. I keep coming back to this!
@@plainzero Same family. Radio is a part of Talking Heads, hence!
@@d1p70 🤣 Nice!
Imagine chilling in Oxford listening to Talking Heads, even going far as to name your band after one of their songs and their lead singer inducts you to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Imagine if they had called themselves "Don't Worry About the Government"?
@@blueodum That would have been better unironically
Imagine naming your own band "Psycho Killer".
@@blueodum
They might have been named "This is not my Beautiful Wife"! or "Letting the Days go By" or "You May Ask Yourself"!
Same as it ever was
"It proved that music fans sometimes are not stupid."
That's the line that hits home the most.
yes, key word was "sometimes". Love that guy.
This one-time Ted Nugent fan understands, takes no offense, and gets a big fat grin from it all!
@@metubenoggin07 To be fair, Stranglehold is an AMAZING song. Too bad it wad made by... him.
@@8bitdiedie True. You know what else is "too bad"? Having been near enough to the stage at his concert back in the 80's to get a clear view of his dangling nuts burned into my brain while he swung over the crowd on a rope wearing a Tarzan loin cloth, I'm forever traumatized!
Yeah, but now all these Radiohead fans have confirmation that they are indeed better than everyone else...
1996: David Byrne inducts David Bowie
2019: David Byrne inducts Radiohead
Both times, it was an artist who influenced him as much as he influenced them. Quite fitting, to be frank.
Such a coincidence David Bowie my fvrt 1st singer and thom the 2nd fvrt.
Bowie and Radiohead deserves a better host. Byrne was high as hell!
@@Amanda-mb5sp pretty sure Radiohead wouldn't want it any other way
@@Amanda-mb5sp i think Bowie would disagree with that, and i have to say, its not really nice to say that someone is "high" just because they are autistic.
@@Amanda-mb5sp He's not high, he's autistic.
Why is David literally the cutest person ever
except towards those, who know, also contributed to his fame, like his bandmates for example
He is Scottish.
I've always found him so sexy i don't care that he's about 30 years older than me lol
@@sharonkemp1824 who asked?
@@tehtrollest2977 um.. Sorry? Didn’t realize commenting required someone asking. I wasn’t being negative, I’m so confused right now lol
It is quite obvious David is socially awkward yet it isn't his mannerisms but the gist of what he is saying that matters. Good job m8! Radiohead truly are one of a kind
He has asperger and he speaks very well in public
That's because he's autistic! Speaking as an autistic person myself (I was specifically diagnosed with Asperger's when I was a kid, but as of 2013 it's been absorbed into the autism spectrum), it's always hard trying to understand and fit in with allistic social norms, even if you're able to pass as neurotypical, and Byrne displays that quite readily.
@@VinchVolt I did not know that. Thanks for the information my friend.
He's autistic
@@VinchVolt Cheers for the info, I have to take my original comment back then as he did very well considering.
Being a trained speaker, I really appreciate someone stepping up and carrying out a six minute expository that is heartfelt and historically relevant.
The fact that he has Asperger's also makes his speech a heartfelt and astonishing spectacle. I love you Mr Byrne ❤
The ever-visually awkward yet arresting genius that he is, David Byrne's speech was as sincere an oration as all of his stage performances. He is an amazing man and that his creativity can inspire so stellar a band is testament to just how gifted he is. Long may he influence and long may we continue to enjoy him as surprises us.
He's definitely is! An inspiration for people on the spectrum such as myself
He is the embodiment of authenticity 🥰 I wish I could hug him but I don't think he'd welcome it - I will love him from a distance x
Nobody better to induct them. He knows what he’s talking about. A true genius in his own right.
Radiohead are a rare example of band getting better and more interesting as they go on; for all the obsession with The Bends and OK Computer (and there are some terrific songs on those albums), I totally relate to what David Byrne says here, Kid A was my proper conversion to the band, and since then I don't reckon they've looked back, really good albums, some of the best of the era, and in In Rainbow's, a flat out masterpiece; unlike many more recent RARHOF inductions, they certainly deserve there place
Zzzzzzx
Agreed. I also think A Moon Shaped Pool is seriously one of their best
An alternative band with mysterious lyrics and a moaning vocalist who once heard Aphex Twin and Autechre and got an idea how to incorporate electronics into their rock stuff to sell more records. Meanwhile Coldplay did nothing of that and got way more successful. And I'll take Parachutes over OK Computer anytime when I want to cheer myself up. It's always easy to write sad songs that sad teens buy.
Coldplay is nowhere near as popular as Radiohead and certainly nowhere near as good.
@@mot00rzystayea but Coldplay fucking sucks and they are tame asf just like U2
Getting a Christopher Walken vibe from Byrne.
I got a cocaine vibe from him
@@demogog3449 same thing.
@@demogog3449 as in Michael Caine?
OMG! They could easily be brothers! Maybe twins! LOL!
He has autism, he's nervous because of it but he knows how to override it the best he could.
Radiohead changed my life.
Poor life, radiohead is poop
@@shenker43 lol I only see this kinda comment in response to other comments, i wonder why
@@handreieiacasa Don't humiliate him girl...
@@Rienyel just kiddind
@@shenker43 LMAO 😂
Bless you, David Byrne. Great speech delivered with a kind of nervous schoolboy charm in the face of all that academy talent. Lovely.
Oh my god to have Byrne bestow that honor on you. Thom must’ve been secretly peeing his pants.
Hahaha that i tough
Thom, Colin and Jonny were safely chilling at home while ed and phil were squirming...
@Alec Durante wait for real?
@@rimelgana1656 of course not
@Alec Durante i could see thom actually doing this
When he said Kid A, the world became a better place.
I'd heard "Creep" when I was in high school, and was aware of The Bends when it came out, but they were just another band to me then. A good band, but just a band. Then in college, in January of 1998 I had a radio show at the college station in St. Louis and I saw this album "OK Computer" by Radiohead. I thought, "Okay. Let's check it out."
Pop it in the player. Press "Play."
"Airbag." Yeah, okay. I'm digging it. Cool rhythms, awesome guitar lead-in.
"Paranoid Android." What the shit is this?! MY MIND IS MELTIIIIIIIIIING!! I'm going to Vintage Vinyl immediately after my show.
Everything after that was gravy.
And Radiohead and I lived happily ever after.
Best. Story. Ever.
“With In Rainbows, they made a big... yes”
I didn’t even know RadioHead was even IN the RARHOF!
And yet Supertramp, Iron Maiden, and Judas Priest wait. What a joke
Just happened last year :)
No, of course not. They're in Hasselhoff.
Pure joke.
@G frt yes i can
A Moon Shaped Pool, In Rainbows, Kid A, OK Computer, The Bends. 5 perfect albums each capturing a distinct sound and style of its own.
In due time, we may be saying the same thing about The King of Limbs!
@@jacksonwaldon a seriously underappreciated and overlooked piece of art. "TKOL: From the basement" really solidifies the record and pushes it into my top albums from radiohead
@@caramelllllllll I actually prefer the in the basement performance to the album version
@@upgoyxtirzruz as much as some bangers were released from the studio version from the basement will always be the definitive better version of TKOL. i also find in rainbows from the basement to be better than the studio version since the sounds feel raw and unpolished
I also loved the King of limbs, Hail to the thief and Amnesiac
oh yes radiohead the best of the 90,s and today they are unique !!!
Not the best of the 90s but close
Matt Wyman never heard that one before, your so original
Matt Wyman you’re* gay
@@sizzlegb the best of the 2000’s
Suede
I love how he deals with his Asperger's syndrome and his laugh breaks.
It's not something you deal with. It's several small differences in how we process things.
@@daishoryujin95 Yes, but he may have more difficulty to, for instance, deliver a speech like that in front of an audience, right? I mean, I know that many Asperger's try to hide it socially and behave in a different way. Am I right? Maybe "deal with" is not the word, but I find it funny and also valuable.
@@7CeLsO7 ah, I see. Btw I have asperger’s as well
@@daishoryujin95 I guessed you had, don't ask me why. I have doubts whether I have it or not. I think I might. I send you support if you need it.
@@7CeLsO7 Oh don’t worry about me I’m fine. And If you had it, you’d probably already be diagnosed, but you could still do some research or ask about it.
Genuinely one of my favourite induction speeches I've ever heard. You can tell David Byrne loves this band and cares deeply about their history and innovation
The thing that I love about Radiohead is just how much you can through the decade they are in just through the music. You can hear a record and, for better or worse, identify when it came out down to the individual month of it's creation.
Pablo Honey is like the perfect example. It's a peak 90s alt and grunge rock album that has not aged well to today's standards. But I mean you can hear it and without knowing anything else just know that this is some post-In Utero and pre-Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness music.
I enjoyed Pablo Honey then and now. Some RH fans shun it, but I embrace it. They still perform bits off it occasionally and I think that says something for whatever kind of staying power it has, even within the band that created it. Everyone has to start off somewhere, right?
David Byrne is a legend in the UK.
And born right here in Dumbarton, Scotland..
@@Stu-SB - Another tidbit: he still had full, single UK citizenship until 2004, when he was pressed to gain dual US citizenship by the US authorities (due to having been resident for over 40 years).
David Byrne is a legend in the U.S. Genius. We have been so, so lucky to live during this time of music and technology: we get to listen to some of the best music of All-of-Time, from the bits that have survived down millennia to the most modern. Glorious. And what a wonderful, wonderful thing that we also get to 'know', in the broadest sense, the people who create it. Even considering how fear-inspiring and truly desperate our time is, I feel that I would rather deal with this reality and have the music and its makers than live in Utopia without them.
David Byrne is actually a great and charismatic speaker.
He's aged real well imo
Easily deserving, top 3 band ever pretty easily imo and my personal favorite. Their creativity and change in sound with each album while still producing high quality is insane.
What would be the other 2?
Not in my personal top 5 but I wouldn’t argue with anyone on that stance
@@FaliolssbThe Beatles and Pink Floyd?
Top 20 Rock N Roll band of all time & the greatest of this generation.
Really? Not even close to the top bands. A few good songs.
Top 10!!!
@@no1nestandsalone387 Anyone who has Elvis as profile shouldn't talk about Radiohead
@@tonysp1912 yeah who is the top then?
erm....have a listen to band from manhchester...called oasis
As much as I love all of Radiohead I think In Rainbows is the greatest album of all time.
Thom shouldve been there only because it was the fantastic David Byrne inducting them
My immediate thought, after paying quite a bit MORE than the going rate for In Rainbows was "damn I'm a moronic tool". Then, I listened, a lot, fell in love with it, and have since come to believe I scored a bargain.
And by making it ok to get music for free they helped legitimise the destruction of the industry
@@JoshuaRoss2 Greedy reptilian slime bags up in the lux suites at Capitol Records began the destruction of the recording industry long before Radiohead came along.
Radiohead; my favorite band for 25+ years. So glad I got to see Thom and gang before live shows died, along with 230000 souls (and counting).
Calling them Radio and telling his speech to every audience member. David Byrne.
as two iconic peoples that symbolize what it can mean to create emotion more stimulating or entertaining than just 'happy or sad', 'good or bad,' it is a very rich moment to watch and hear them both thriving and giving us a glimpse into their story that has helped many of our stories sound and feel better!!
a-SPOGGIT!
If only everyone else in that audience was as awkward as David Byrne. The world would be a far better place.
Limmy has to play Tom
Exactly what I thought
wrong way down a one way street
I could imagine Limmy just babbling random shit in Welsh on a drum machine with distorted piano chords.
Thom Yorker
Probably the most influenctial and important band in the actual music, long live Radiohead and Thom Yorke, they are legends ❤️
Byrne being Byrne who is my hero from when I was about 12 in 1983! 77 album blew me away, my 2nd name is Byrne also, but hey, I’m nobody, just a listener to good shit.
This was a complete lifecycle .. Radiohead receives the place that they deserve.. sponsored by the real Radiohead, Byrne
I missed meeting David by about 15 minutes when he came into the Cafe I worked in at University of DE back in May of 1998. Radiohead is one of my favorite bands of all time so this was a thrill to finally see them inducted in 2019. Pablo Honey, the Bends, Ok Computer, and Kid A were like the soundtrack to my early adulthood ❤
I remember when Pablo Honey came out. It was the year before I started playing guitar, I was in 6th grade & a friend picked it up from his sister in college. I thought it was total garbage & had no interest. Not sure if it was maturity, musical progression or a fresh introduction but when ok computer came out I was sucked in. It was like I suddenly understood & went back to enjoy the previous 2 albums. They stretched my perspective of music & opened my ears to sounds I didn't want to hear before. They became one of my biggest musical influences. Jonny Greenwood was a guitarist that I related to heavily. A friend I was spending a lot of time with mocked my interest when ok computer came out, she had just started playing guitar at the time. A few years later I ran into her & kid A had caught her attention. She had become obsessed. I was lucky to catch concerts for kid A, amnesiac & hail to the thief, 3 of the best shows I have seen to this day.
I learned so much by listening to them & in my mind they are right there with the mist influential bands in rock history. They are their own beast with hints of everything mixed in.
In my mind they couldn't have picked anyone better to induct them.
When he mentioned blonde Thom, I realized this dude doesn't just like them, he is a straight up fanboy xD
David Byrne... serial genius
David Byrne Inducts his own song into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame
I was lucky enough to bunk into a David Byrne concert in Brighton. Made my year!!
I'll be honest, with my upbringing with straight up hard rock/metal/grunge, the more experimental albums like Kid A and beyond took more time to get into. But, The Bends and OK Computer were remarkable combinations of the more distorted loud guitars of their time with the more alternative almost avant-garde ideas for other sounds and lyrics. I like just about everything on The Bends. On OK Computer, Karma Police is one of the songs I consider among the best in all of alt rock history.
David Byrne of The Talking Heads and Radiohead are awesome.
Nice to see Rick Beato inducting them
Are you sure that it wasn't David lynch..?
Love David.....a true artist and yes...athlete
Damn I clicked the video to talk about Radiohead but how 'bout that David Byrne. What. A. Treasure.
Well said mr Byrne , long live radiohead.
So happy to have been there that night!
@Alex Dee It must have taken you all of the 6 months my initial comment was sitting there to come up with such a deep reply.
Legend without text! He really into the band
Radiohead is incredible.
love you David Byrne
David mentioned Can, wow. I'm now in love with him and I already liked him.
remain in light reminded me of ege bamyasi when i first heard it
They need to put this speech to music. It would fit perfectly on remain in light
The artistic risk paid off. Thankfully. And the rest is history. 👏
Kid A for me also. A masterpiece. Every song was sooo good. Innovative to say the least
funny thing, the Talking Heads song "Radiohead" was written about actor Stephen Tobolowsk (Ned Ryerson from Groundhog Day) who told David Byrne that he could hear the tones that people give off.
David's quirks were both unsettling and at the same time endearing . . .
Music fans are not stupid is the greatest statement coming from David Byrne
It's surprising that after all his years in the biz, DB still nervously rocks side-to-side in his speeches. Odd, but no matter. He is still a musical genius, and oh - that grand head of white, thick hair
He's autistic he was Stimming because he a bit nervous big speeches are weird to do
What a beautiful Speak 👌 great Mr. David Byren. ❤🎼❤️ Thank you so much wonderful Man .🥳
Spectre x Radiohead is Incredible ! Find it, listen to it ! Such a shame it wasn't used.
I want Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson, to play Thom Yorke in the eventuality of a biopic.
Tilda Swinton stars as Thom Yorke
What a beautiful human being.
I think David Byrne may have confused the timeline here a bit. There were no such thing as an app in 2000 and Kid A was never released as an app. The only app Radiohead ever did was for The King of Limbs. He was probably thinking about Napster and P2P but didn't know the terminology of it.
Ehh, "App" still stands for "Application" last I checked. While it wasn't a modern definition of an app is today, it certainly was an app - a Java applet to be specific. A web embed that streamed the album and linked to a pre-order site for the album. Many things we take for granted now was far ahead of it's time and infancy when Kid A was marketed back in 2000.
My man David looks like he’s trynna dodge a sniper
Love that Thom didn’t show up for this shite. The Rock and Roll hall of Fame is the antithesis of what rock is.
Exactly.
When he mentioned OK Computer my Google Assistant turned on
Saw Radiohead at the Aug.2016 Lollapalooza in Grant Park Chicago IL, look it up you can find it on RUclips. One of the greatest recent live sets they ever performed!
This is fantastic!
What a fantastic speech.
love you, David, and all the TH, and Radio Head.
Radiohead not being first ballot HoF'ers is a stain on the hall forever. I'd like a list of all the "music journalists" who voted no the first time so I can ignore everything they ever write again. Imagine voting no on Radiohead? Holy crap.
David darts his head around like he's looking for Thom and Johnny
will radiohead make a song called talkingheads
Or a new band with the name of a radiohead song
@@nombreapellido310 im sure there are plenty fake plastic trees out there
Sometimes music fans are not stupid. I love David this guy.
"it sounds like a movie in your head.... in my head anyway"
Genius recognizes genius.
0:25 ...well, how did I get here?
R a d i o h e a d 💜
I’m rainbows was the first one I bought that wasn’t already in my house growing up and the pay what you wish idea was a marvelous gift and we gifted them back
30 years ago you watch David Byrne and you’re just thinking he’s strange and quirky and that’s part of his act. Then he comes out and admits he’s had Asperger’s and you watch this video and you’re like oh no shit.
"Music fans, sometimes, aren't stupid" 🤣
I would've loved if he just walked on stage and blurted out: "Fa fa fa fa, fa fa fa fa fa fa.... eeyaeyaeyaaeeeyayayayaya..." and then just walked off stage.
That was beautiful
Lol, their reaction to being called "Radio"... 😅
LEGEND
This video is the same length as paranoid android
My first ever concert that I went to was Radiohead, on the OK Computer tour.
It was spectacular.
Once in a lifetime
Yeahh of the all time greats and brave musicians
The executives at Capitol Records who deemed 'OK Computer' "career suicide" are now gainfully employed mopping the executive restrooms at Capitol Records.
2055 Byrne inducts god.
If science found some way to harvest the energy from David Byrne's restless hips, we could power the entire planet for free.
David byrne and chritopher walken.thx 4 the syndrome.🎶🎸🎶
Thanks to them for Bandcamp
