- Radiohead's Thom Yorke and Ed O'Brien talk to Dave Fanning about being rock stars, juggling family and work, how painful recording In Rainbows was, whether they should still be making music at their age, having low artistic self-esteem, and Portishead's Third!

Sounds like they at marriage counselling
Made me giggle 😂
HHAHAHAHA
Bands are lol not far off marriages not going to lie
Ed saying: "We've done some good stuff in the past", has to be the definition of the word "understatement".
that maybe why they are still a good band. They're the least egotic famous band I ever seen
i think they believei n some kind of karma thing. they dont want to jinx their careers.
In Rainbows was a magical era for Radiohead.
What's your guess for their next album friend?
They just knew they had a great record, I think. You felt they had so much confidence
@@wilmabaird3508 more beep boop a and more piano
bip bong
And more mumbling from Thom
Ok computer is my fav, I can't lie
I really really love Thom's talking voice,, it's just as nice as his singing voice
Agree
it's weird to think think that these two men sitting here, talking, are the vocals behind the best band in the world. Ed is so underrated and their harmonies are always amazing.
i agree with you. everyone says ed is useless but really he so underrated
who says that is a total dumbass! Ed is as highly important to the band as any other member. If one just watches there live performances closely, it's quite obvious. He adds all these sounds to the catalogue which just bring the full picture to life. I've always admire Radiohead for working so effective since they have 3 guitar players. I know it is hard. Thats one more reason why the are such a fantastic band.
Maxwell Harrison Ratzky true talent is being so subtle that people question why you're even in the band. Jazz is great example of the ultimate art of subtlety... A lot of people would say the same thing about Ringo Starr, that he sucked as a drummer. The guy is a genius when it comes to writing music for the style the Beatles were. In the same regard, Ed falls into this category, but as a guitarist/vocalist/etc... I wouldn't know what the hell to play to half of Radiohead or The Beatles catalogues if I were either of them.
Maxwell Harrison Ratzky when I was 6 I stayed on the same campsite as them and beat his son in ping pong. Goals.
Maxwell Harrison Ratzky you said it!
"are we too old to be doing this?" LMAO dont ever stop radiohead...
Its funny because it feels like Thom's voice is getting better with time
I don't even get what he means by that lol what does age have to do with it? Why would anyone suddenly quit their music career in their 40s?
The fact he's in his 50's, they still should never stop.
"daddy wouldnt do that"
I don't think Radiohead knows how much they will ALWAYS have a place in the hearts of alternative music fans everywhere... They don't understand what they've done for music and how much they are appreciated. They could play me the phonebook and it'd be genius. They will ALWAYS have a fan base. It may not always be the largest, but it will always be the most loyal and appreciative of true art. Thank you, Radiohead. Thank you for everything. -an 18 year old fan.
ChrisMarie93 airbag and tourist hold up. but the rest are on rare rotations.
kid amnesiac was made from a tabla rasa space. not a "lets make another rock album".
Of course, Johnny Greenwood isn't here to answer the question on aging because he's still 17.
55555555555 he just innocent and soft boy
it's interesting to see that, even at their level, there is still that artistic self-doubt and struggle...no matter how many millions have been thrilled by every note they've ever played... it just shows that really every artist has to go through nearly the same struggles regardless of their level of success or talent
Thom is the most adorable person I've seen .
so much love and respect for them
0:48 wish Thom would give that look to me
😂😂😂
I'm dyingg
A bit creepy but ok
I love his random expressions and out-of-place gestures xD
My God, the greatest band in the world, talking about how they don't have it all figured out at all. Amazing!
maybe that is some of the reason why they are great ;)
I agree they are the best band in the world!
They are Radiohead for crying out loud! A category by itself. Please do not talk bad for them, they were part of my life at times of joy, split ups, relaxation , and, miraculusly...celebration...they are holy to me...
The antithesis of the American cultural doctrine that artists have to be open, performing, accessible at all times. The British have always been more reserved, but sadly Cowell has imported the fashion.
+bodhid did you listen songs like spanish saahara or providence arent the best radiohead songs ?
Thom Yorke's kids. One day they will grow up to be fuckin' awesome.
Hey, 9 years later!
@@patrikfrroku7215 hey, 3 months later!
@@flazo9152 hey, three hours later!
@@j.ricardodesaless.919 hey, 5 days later!
@@itsvoid.iwillmissyou120 hey, one week later!
Thats why I love RH they are brave enough to go to those dark place which build strength, and gives there fans empathy for those times we get lost in the dark. Thank you Radiohead, and Pink floyd for allways being there.
So funny to think of them talking, way back then, about being old.
Radiohead will never die
Don’t you jinx it
This is hilarious... just look at how those two are really just using the interview as a time to talk with each other (Ed and Thom) about what they seem to need to say about the past.
"low artistic self confidence" - Geez, we're all screwed then.
In Rainbows is my favorite album by Radiohead. Their hard work changed my life.
"there`s tough sometimes, then there`s two and a half years of tough"
Can I just say, I'm in love with Thom's haircut. 💜
Its weird to see them so relaxed and open! love it.
I just love Ed's voice
In Rainbows is a truly great album. So is Ok Computer, The Bends and A Moon Shaped Pool...
Their track record is god tier
How ironic. In Rainbows was what brought me to Radiohead.
I came here from "'Meeting people is easy' Sad moments". Very uplifting. :)
What's genuinely amazing about these interviews: I've heard them talk about how difficult it is when they make albums, but only in generic terms. I have no idea what Ed means when he talks about "trusting the process". But the albums where I've heard the most about them struggling? OK Computer, Kid A, and In Rainbows. There's something powerful in their struggle and I wonder what it is.
Ok. Here's the obvious: love them! The more they relax and discuss real life situations, quite frankly, the more I respect them and would love to just hang out and have a drink with them. Despite previous press about how "difficult" Thom is, I'll bet he's fun when he's at ease. I'll bet they all are...
"Abuse at railway stations, its brilliant!"
I hope they never stop making music
Seems like a great interview. They both seem so chilled out & relaxed. Compared to the awkwardness of the interviews on live talkshows and stuff
0:32 oh man such an intimate band moment we caught a glimpse at! I love it
Yeeeeeey, we're not alone!
Dang. So insightful. Thank you for posting this.
you guys will always be relevant and we will always want new music from you guys. please never stop and know we all love the things you have done for us and will be forever thank ful.
Some one said once... "Ed is the mayor of Radiohead." I thought it was funny.
thanks for doing it guys
those two fucking rock. c'mon Radiohead, release album 8 already! LOVE THEM!
Thanks for this :).
Thom is rocking the denim on denim
They care so much. I love it.
Excellent interviewer...
Idk why i ever thought that Radiohead made songs easily. I never though about the pressure and insecurities.
These dudes are the kind of musicians you can tell didnt want international fame and all that goes with it. Almost like a Pearl Jam situation.
i think they wanted just to be known in england but it blew out of proportions. i bet thom wanted to be a star but not THIS KIND OF STAR
it's a sad thing watching this on 2022 knowing they don't know if lp10 will exist someday... holy fuck i just played it for full of serotonin purposes and now my chest kinda hurts hahah
@semperfidelis3100 they're not saying they don't make good music but that they can lose confidence in themselves whilst making a record. I love how they've stuck together and pulled through all these years to yet again release a great record. I can't thank this band enough for what they do.
awesome
"Tough times in two and a half years of tough." Lol
No way, man. Kid A might be their best album, but OK Computer was amazing.
real people...real genius...amazing music ..ahh....
he's known as, "the left side of the stage"
The way Ed talks reminds me of Brian May. They have a similar way of giving an interview.
never mind, mates! In Rainbows is a perfect album
Ed is 30 cm taller than Thom, for those ones who where wondering
"If you are trying to do something good, it can be really tough"
ed almost said #TRUSTHEPROCESS
OMG I love Thom's children XD
is the full interview posted anywhere?
Amen.
Thom Yorke is an English human Sonic the Hedgehog.
haha, his kids should see the pics from the mid-90s when Radiohead was all glammed up like they were going to the Eurovision.
Rainy Jane and that phase lasted a Qwik minute.
they rock in best sense of the word...not pop in its worst sense.
I wouldn't have gotten so mad if this guy would have said, " Are they on drugs?" or "Do they do drugs?". But his "how high are they?" seems to imply that their complete druggies and on drugs all the time. I don't doubt that they've done drugs before, and yes, drugs can make people make great music ( Pink Floyd, The Beatles etc.) It was just his wording that got me kind of pissed. But yeah, I agree with you.
why the Portishead stuff in the last seconds??
@TheBarbon85 haha I was sure it was Louis Walsh too, until I saw the guy.
when was this interview?
Listen to their later albums a few more times. Trust me.
I don't trust you
@@soapyguy6483 lol
How can he blink with only one eye? Does his left eye burn all the time?
its paralysed
his eyelid muscles are paralyzed in his left eye, he can move his actual eyeball but not the eyelid
i think he rolls his eye backwards or something...
I think my eyes are gonna fall out of how cringey these replys are
Cómo me calientan estos dos los inglesessonbuenos amantes lo digo porq lo comprobé!❤😅
So people still consider Jonny a guitarist?
Which album they talking about? K.O.L?
Surely not In Rainbows..... it's their best album!
Which album are they talking about?
In the rainbows or hail to the theif
house!!!!!!!
@mahavishnuxc Real musicians...
o my god Ed o'brien evolved in hugh laurie
why does thom yorke have a middle aged lesbians haircut?
That made me chuckle. 😂🤣😂Thx
fc off this supercool haircut
>Progressed in the nineties
>No Progression in naughties
You sir, have defeated me through the powers of sound logic and reasoning, obviously Kid A, Amnesiac, In Rainbows and The King of Limbs were a regression
Hail to the Thief is not mentioned?, it is far and away some of their best work, i saw them play last week and There, There was the penultimate song of the night
no, Ed is 2nd and Thom would be 3rd
he sounds just like my dad
@mahavishnuxc now they play dubstep huhuhu :(
a band can be annoying when you are in love with it and you have expectations.Obviously Antiks72 was expecting another way of Radiohead maturing ... I think
@zinkerled
dont forget bucket
more of rock + psychedelic
Ed looks like Danny way
don't you mean...
...15 STEPS!? BUDUM CHING!
Rock stars... can they be so down to earth like this??? 0_o Having delivered a chart topper they should be on cloud nine... oh, but Radiohead ain't like any other rock band!
And Hail To The Thief
Johnny is the 2nd
I didnt know Thom had a daughter! i though just two sons!
Alternative
2:28
@Miguelohara563 Imagine parent's evening!
Is Ed th 2d guitarist?
not 15 steps?
Why did it say Portishead at the end?
they also released an album around the time of In Rainbows. Portishead (good friends of Radiohead) has been around roughly as long as Radiohead so it made them feel comfortable that they weren't alone in releasing an album for as long as they've been around
@therealgergory back to troll school with you
@therealgergory Then go and watch things you do like, like Lady GaGa or so, and leave us nice people alone ;-)
