Ed is also an extremely pleasant, friendly person. Very down to earth and willing to chat and engage with his fans. Absolutely not knocking Thom or Jonny for being more withdrawn! Just appreciate Ed’s wonderful attitude and generosity with fans.
If they knew anything about music. If you actually think that the year that gave us shit like Panda and One Dance was the greatest year for music then you're insane!
@@js0988 they never said those songs were good, they just also happen to be released in 2016. there was so much more music that WASNT too 40 pop released. get off ur high horse of “old music was better” and accept that every year had amazing and awful music released. we just see the past through rose tinted glasses because we forget about the bad songs that were released.

Wonderful to hear him talk for so long, I have been a Radiohead fan since my first GF introduced me to them in 1998 and this is the first time Iv heard him say more then a sentence.
@@darrenlockenheart For real. I'm fully supportive of your lifestyle but as a straight man even I knew Jonny looked like a model in the 90's. Even if he wears his shirts two sizes too small.
I used to work in Our Price! It’s absolutely true, most punters would just buy whatever was at the top of the chart. Sometimes you’d get someone who was surprised that the no.1 wasn’t what they thought it was, but bought it anyway.
We used to record the music we'd listen to on cassette, usually 90s rap like Ice Cube, Onyx, public enemy, Naughty by nature, Gang Starr etc then pinch the cassette cases from our price after school. I'm fairly sure I remember Our Price having a big hand in shutting down independent record shops.
2016 was a great year for music, especially with my two favorite bands, Metallica and Radiohead, releasing Hardwired…To Self-Destruct and A Moon Shaped Pool.
@@err0r104 way to say that when a moon shaped pool is such a beautiful record and the natural evolution for Radiohead, which also recieved critical acclaim, I do respect your opinion tho, however radical it is
@@LukasOfTheLight Yeah I know, b-sides were good for all my fav bands in the 90's: Super Furry Animals, The Verve, Gomez etc. Oasis pretty well topped it all though.
@RM Art @RM Art I think Acaster is pretty well versed in music history. He's also a comedian, so I think that his question was also somewhat of a joke. For me it would be a toss up between 91, 00 and 66. I love psychedelia, electronic and post rock, and a lot of my fav releases like Slint and Godspeed are then. I personally don't ever dog people on what music they listen to, because it's reductive. People listen to what they listen to at their age. I'm sure people gave you shit for your taste when you were younger. You can only grow further if you're willing to listen to new things.
Danny Brown, Bowie, Kendrick Lamar, SZA, Frank Ocean, Radiohead, The Avalanches, Kanye West, A Tribe Called Quest, Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, Solange, Car Seat Headrest, Bon Iver. Monumental year for music.
@RM Art I don’t even stand by the notion that 2016 is the best year for music, not even of the 10’s for that matter. That’s got to be 2010. But to actually suggest the majority is ‘snobbish modern trash’ is ridiculous. You ever heard a Danny Brown record? Hahah
@RM Art sloppy hip hop just reinforces your ignorance. I don’t believe any year to be the best in general, why subscribe to such a premise? Music is as subjective as it is beautiful and every single year has seen it’s fair share of masterpieces released.
2016?? For those of us alive b/w ‘65 and ‘75, we know there can never be a single point in time that captures the human condition in art. Suggesting so is not an ode to intelligence nor wisdom.
2016 is such a crazy year to pick, 1967 was most likely the single most important year for music. With sgt pepper, The doors first album, Pink floyd's first album, Velvet's first album, are you experienced, Cream's disraeli gears and countless others
My name isn't Ed or Phil but since we have already delved into chicanery and subterfuge I would be happy to don a wig and be either Ed or Phil. Odd since these are fictional men who as of yet have not been prescribed a physical description, in fact Ed could be Edina and Phil a Philemina... Edwardette, Philys, Edie, Philicity, Edgelordess, Philbertanya, et cetera I play the zoot horn rolo, the phantasmal sphere (acoustic, electric and plasmatic), and the rotisserie-chicken-o-gram
Said this to another commenter but: You can have a bias and a preference for old music, which I'm going to go ahead and assume you have, but 2016 was so densely packed with extremely great albums from all different types of genres. I suggest you actually listen to some episodes from James Acaster's podcast about this.
@RM Art Thats not an argument against 2016 being good. I love the stuff that got released on 1969, although in terms of musical versatility music has undeniably become more versatile and varied in genres. But yeah 1969, 1993 and 2016 are probably my 3 favorite years for releases
@RM Art I'm aware it was diverse, but in comparison 2016 is just more diverse. That doesn't mean everything, of course as time goes on more and more genres will start existing and especially in the age of streaming artists can choose niche sounds and get pretty popular, and undeniably most of the stuff that came out in 1969 was more influential than what came out in 2016 (with some exceptions) but thats mostly because during the 60s and 70s the musical evolution was moving at an extremely rapid pace and shaped the foundations for what we consider modern music
@RM Art Sidenote. I don't care much about memes, am not a millenial and am not nonbinary. If you're gonna make fun of me for something stupid at least be right lmao.
These guys must be living in a blissful bubble if they seriously believe that 2016 was the best year for music. Even the wonderful Radiohead had peaked many years before this. The great years of contemporary music are well over, whether we like it or not.
Colin has such wonderful energy. Relentlessly positive and affable. Radiohead's secret glowing heart.
And of course, he’s a killer on the bass. One of my favorite players that’s still around
One of the best bassists of all time.
@@kmcsounds25 He has such melody in his playing its amazing!!!!!!!
Ed is also an extremely pleasant, friendly person. Very down to earth and willing to chat and engage with his fans. Absolutely not knocking Thom or Jonny for being more withdrawn! Just appreciate Ed’s wonderful attitude and generosity with fans.
Every Radiohead member oozes positive energy in interviews that's adorable.
And Colin's the most adorable of the lot!
not Thom haha
Have you been introduced to the concept of Thom Yorke?
no they fuckin dont lol Colin does, sure
nope! thom is like interview is over before it even started
I just need to say, as an obsessive music listener, it brings me REAL joy that James gets to talk about Music with people who love music too.
I love Colin and his attitude and vibe.
Always gets the crowd clapping at the right time 👏
Colin's brain and hands have crafted some of the most iconic basslines of all time. Dollars & Cents is my favourite.
Airbag is another one of his best
Where I End And You Begin is one of my fav, such a Groove!!!!!!
my iron lung’s chorus is a hard hitter!!!
Anything on amsp
Nude's might've been deceptively simple but such a beautiful piece of work.
I love that him and Jonny speak so simillarly
almost like theyre brothers or something idk
Yeah it’s extremely similar. I’d say Colin speaks slower and clearer and Jonny speaks faster and with a slight lisp
they're both so soft/well spoken :')
I’m not used to this side of James. The calm and collected side that is.
Looking forward to seeing 'Colin's Radiohead Experience with Ed and Phil' in a pub near me soon

Colin is brilliant.
2016 was definitely a year.
Yes, out of all the years that have existed, 2016 was definitely one of them

God I love him (and them)
I like this. I want more.

Yep, I can tell you for a fact I missed out on great-music in 2016!
woah what a crossover!!
You're aving a larf! Truly great music hasn't been created since the mid 70's.

Colon!!!
i came here for radiohead and immediately got jump scared by james' voice
Wtf…. Colin and James had an interview?!?!??! If only I could have been a fly
Hahahahha Colin's Radiohead Experience with Ed and Phil. CREEP
for me it's between 1967, 1991, 2013 (more personal than objective) and 2016
Does James Acaster even know about “Culcha Vulcha” by Snarky Puppy?
I mean, he’s got to right?
1977
Nice!
Colin is so funny
1991 was THE year for music.
I'm going 1971 or 65.
2016 was a trajedy
What's significant about 2016, what did I miss?
Danny Brown, Bowie, Kendrick Lamar, SZA, Frank Ocean, Radiohead, The Avalanches, Kanye West, A Tribe Called Quest, Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, Solange, Car Seat Headrest, Bon Iver. Monumental year for music.

91
Well because Radiohead just put out an album
2016 (well, pre June) was probably the last decent year ever..of anything. Downhill ever since.
James looks like he should be working at hot dog on a stick

Radiohead is a band not a song
if you haven't listened to Blonde, you need to.
All time? No way, recently sure
I thought they were all too introverted and awkward to do on camera interview. Except Ed.
I much prefer James Acaster in this role of mellow, affable interviewer than when he's trying to be funny.
James sounds like Jarvis Cocker
Sounds like Brian Cox
Brian Cox the Physicist? He’s from Greater Manchester. Colin Greenwood is from Oxford. Both have the accents to match.
I didn't realize that OK Computer came out in 2016
Id say 71 was pretty good
SMALL KNEES
He is so George Harrison kind of energy
Why 2016?
You should stop doing random interviews and make one more awesome album, oh my god, how I miss new stuff of Radiohead.
