hhhhhhhhhhha
Goggle products wtf
Radiohead is still the sound of the future.
Well no, they have never been really ahead of their times. Just if you see the 90s as Nirvana and Oasis (and 90s were much more). Their music is cacophonous pop rock that keeps up with the tecnological innovations and arrangements, often already experimented by others and not really so experimental like you might think. They have always been just in their times, not ahead. They were not the Slints, they were a britpop band that saw what others were doing (looking at the krautorck) and followed the path. And doing that they didn't even invent a new genre, they're just cacophonous britpop/altrock. They just showed a new trend to follow to masses bored by grunge and britpop.
@@nickn2794 dude You nailed it, this is exactly it, radiohead is incredibly overrated. Its a good band, but overrated. The fans are ridiculous if they say they revolutionized music because until age 20 I didnt listen to any track besides creep by them. They werent that popular, or revolutionary. Experimental? Yes.
@@hunterlasso1956 Radiohead is probably better than your personal favorite artist. They have been constantly compared to other major acts such as The Beatles /Bowie and for good reason.
If they are the future of music then shoot me in the head
Well, I think more and more bands who incorporate lots of different styles in their music and/or play different styles, have been getting more and more popular because of Radiohead. I am still amazed how a band like Radiohead is super famous though considering what is famous on the radio these days and they are one of the few artists today that are super famous that I like. I do know fame is not "everything" for me and lots of people though as musicians.
The pink Floyd of our time.
true, lmao
Better than pink Floyd don't even try changing my mind
@Sam i get into this debate with my friends alot, and everytime We come to the conclusion, pink Floyd might be the ' better' band, but radiohead certainly has better albums. Ok computer and in rainbows are far better than anything that pf ever produced. But again, that's just my opinion.
@Sam the only edge i see pink Floyd having on radiohead is Gilmore's solos. Those are fucking amazing.
@Sam aah i see.May his soul rest in peace 🙏. i also got introduced to rh through a friend tho, who is still with me luckily. But i feel like alot of their stuff has emotional value for me because i was going through alot at the time when i discovered them and thus, the being biased
It astonishes me how much Radiohead have evolved since the Pablo Honey days
@Goggle products what?
@Goggle products Is the answer 42?
They always been evolving with every album
Goggle products I don’t even consider you human
@Goggle products huh????
2+2=5 is from George Orwells's book 1984. It has massive significance.
I know. I try to be funny.
I don't know where they took it from but 2+2= 5 is quite older. Abbé Sieyès 1789, Victor Hugo 1852, Fyodor Dostoyevsky 1864. Sometimes you can find interesting information on wikipedia :)
Optimistic also references George Orwell’s Animal Farm. Radiohead are well read.
No it equals 4 dumbass.
Madison Kelly Maund thom Yorke is well read hahaha
I'm from China, being a fan of Radiohead for over 20 years. In 1998, I was one day at a friend's house, when I about to leave, he gave me this album called "Ok computer". He said: 'throw it away or take it away, just keep it from my sight.' I got curious and had to listen to it. After the first time I listened to the whole album. I felt lost, depressed and something like seasickness. I decided to throw it away as my friend told me to. Before I do that I was caught up in something so I just left it on my desk. However, for the rest of that week, this music just stuck in my head. So I listened again. and again, and again...before I knew it I got obsessed with it and radiohead became my favorite band of all time. To see a live show of them is on top of my bucket list.
Howdy from Texas, USA!...been a Radiohead fan since Pablo Honey, but I must say, OK COMPUTER is by far, my favorite.( KID A, my 2nd)...later on, my son, who is grown now, developed a liking of RADIOHEAD and we (he was in 11th grade, maybe 12th) went to a show in Austin. They played Paranoid Android for the encore....so awesome!...what a wonderful experience for a Mother and her Son...I truly hope you are able to check this off your list!
Hopefully Freddy you see them live. I am fortunate to have seen them live 5 times. It's like a religious experience. They are by far the best band I've ever seen.
My first gig to see them was in Dublin in 1997. I've never heard anything like it since. My uncle who was a musician brought me as I was young and only getting into music. I was about 17 years old. He explained to me all about how they arranged their music and how good they were. He was always with me for their gigs.
Sadly he passed away a few years ago and I put a copy of ok computer in his coffin.
Only last week I played paranoid android for the first time in years and I've forgotten how good they are. My 11 year old son heard it for the first time and thought it was amazing and hasn't stopped playing it since.
They are absolutely amazing band.
Cool story
Great story!
jane doe Thanks Ma’am! I hope one day my daughter who is 6 will be able to enjoy Radiohead just like your son! And paranoid android is the one song that gave me the headache then just stuck in my brain! And my favorite if I had to choose! Great respect from Beijing, China!
I don't think the guy who's talking in the vid actually knows how much The Bends is important, critically acclaimed and highly regarded.
He doesn't know how to pronounce Abingdon, either. I don't know why you'd pronounce it with a t.
@@lindseypratt7875 the bends is my fav
Nnnnneeeeerd.
@@ageshero who ? meee ? :P
Youre all just thinking ,as your listening to Radio Head,that its heavy shit,because noone understands theyre strange lyrics,that mostly was born under toiletvisits,hard long toiletvisits,where Thom Yorke had a serious hard stommach-therefore the strange hard lyrics...
Radiohead is such an inspiring band, they seem to not care about what anyone thinks of them and make some of the most technically perfect music ever made with such a great meaning and such a great understanding of the art form music is
How can you mention High and Dry but not Street Spirit, My Iron Lung or Just?? Heresy.
Agreed
and nice dream
Yeah high and dry is the worst radiohead song by far
Gotta love Radiohead.
@Goggle products wut
Yep
Let's hope they have many more records in them.
YOU'RE EVERYWHERE
Let's hope they die in a dumpster fire with all their "music:.
@@Simp44 uhm yes i see, a really not stupid opinion there... words totally not tossed to the wind, best thoughts ever...
please make me the favour of not using the word "music" ever agian unless you learn the the fundamentals of Art and Impression
@@handreieiacasa Ah yeas classic pretentious twat Radiohead fan response.
@@Simp44 just sayin you re highly biased or really don't know music to say that. I could say the very same thing for every kind of music or artist, if u wanna make critics do them well. I m not sayin they re perfect but just try not hate blindly cause you re hating blindly
Interesting how Radiohead absolutely destroys their own influences.
Radiohead albums are always ahead of their time. To explain why, I developed what I call the “Radiohead conjecture”. I buy the album and listen to it once, and invariably I’m not sure how to process it. A year later, I listen again, and invariably find it to be a timeless masterpiece.
IMO the greatest band of all time.
Agreed
asr 01 lol that’s funny
So...you've never heard anything else then? They almost make me happy that I lost hearing in one ear.
@@Simp44 not only one
They're not even close to being the greatest band of all time. But everybody loves living in their own bubble nowadays, so keep on bubblin'.
Their next album oughtta be titled "On A Friday"!!
Their last*
And released on a Tuesday.
I'll listen to it on a Sunday.
Rad10head
I think they need an album titled “We Live in Strange Times, it’s Not My Fault “
During an interview in 1996 Thom Yorke was asked about his thoughts on the 1995 movie Clueless’s take on Radiohead, saying it was for crybabies. Yorke responded with saying that the character that says the line is one of many 2 dimensional characters, and the character that was listening to the song(fake plastic trees) is one of the few 3D characters. Afterwards he says “So the answer is: F*ck you! We’re for 3D people!”.
Did that make you feel included.
You are special cause your 3d.
Metaverse is calling
In Rainbows pulled me out of the deep rut known as "listening to nothing else but prog rock/metal". God bless 'em.
In Rainbows is their best album! Change my mind.
Amnesiac is my favorite. I just love that recorded dropped drumstick.
Every time I don't know what to listen to on my headphones while i'm going to or from work, I'm listening to In Rainbows, or much less often, Ok Computer or Kid A. And I currently have 46 bands/artists and 72 albums on my phone.
@Alexx Cross I don't want to change your mind; just add to it. Listen to 'All Mod Cons' album by The Jam. I think that's a great album. You may disagree, but as I'm not a snowflake I won't get offended if you don't like it. No idea when you'll read this or check that LP out, but I hope you do.
Peace.
Christopher Vouga I cant.
Kid a
Is that a symphonic version of I Promise in the background?
chef. Heck yeah. I put the link to it in the description.
dope
You really know your shit you know that?
Hey nice work on this video! Super simple and really easy to follow. Definitely one of the better Radiohead introduction videos!
Chris Sierzega Thank you! I did have music clips and more music video clips incorporated, but RUclips couldn't tell it fell under fair use, so I had to get rid of those. Thanks for watching :)
My dad was one of the 6 people at Radiohead’s first gig
Really?
Awesome video! Long live Radiohead, one of the greatest bands of all time, we are really fortunate to be alive in an era when they release music
Thank you so much. I have to agree with you about being fortunate to be alive in this era :D
blasborg Radio Heads music really changed my life.
The five didn't know each other that well...
(He really said that after saying that two members are brothers)
Radiohead: creativity, not afraid to venture to uncharted ground, and be great.
"That's right! Radiohead's popularity caused them to transcend the laws of mathematics."
I'm trying not to wake up my dad but this was funny and I Iaughed very loud.
This is wrong. I was a roadie for "On A Friday" when they played a gig in Bristol University in 1989 as a friend of Phil. The band was bigger then: 2 x sax + 1 x sax/multi instrument. Their best song then was "Rio".
Cap
do we have anything left of this song anywhere online?
Funk everyone! In Rainbows is easily their best album so far.
Really great job man. Thanks for making this. Would love to see a similar brief history of Ween!
Jonathan Thanks for watching, and great suggestion!
Radiohead saved me.
Thank you..
Johhny didn't like the song and the other members told him that he will be playing on these parts. Because johhny didnt like the song he wanted to destroy the song by playing this riffs. But the band liked it and they kept it
Their music, especially Kid A and Amnesiac helped me a lot with my depression.
From someone who actually lives in the same town that Radiohead is from, I can’t stand the way you pronounce “Abingdon” it’s pronounced: “ab-ing-don” not “abin-ton”
Oh my God I'm from oxford as well and this annoyed me sm
Easy mate he’s American
I'm American and lived in New Orleans for 8 years and bartended. I met many cats from the UK. You guys destroy the proper way to say New Orleans, among many other cities in the states. Go ahead though, generalize the entire country, genius.
Ffs. He is American. Are you that dumb?
My mom always plays this band (along with like, Pixies) and I have grown a very big liking to them. Their music is strange and different I really enjoy it.
Favorite album is maybe the king of limbs or ok computer
living in oxfordshire (near abingdon) is great, i've had like 3 encounters with Thom Yorke
Omg I wonder how it feels like to encounters with thom for 3 times
Amnesiac wasn't the "leftovers" of the Kid A sessions. The were just both written and recorded at the same time. Like you said, they took a long break after OK Computer so they came back with a ton of material. Enough for two albums. The narrative that Amnesiac is some B-side compilation of Kid A is so tired and wrong.
Thanks man. I love Amnesiac.
yeah, amnesiac songs would not have fit in with the kid A vibe
I'm glad they didn't make Kid A double album.
I like amnesiac because its alsmost like an even darker version of kid a with songs like packt like sardines in a crushed tin box and pulk/ pull revolving doors.
Deserves more likes.
Very nicely done. Great "just the facts, ma'am" style and pace with just enough inserts to keep it interesting. I'm afraid most of us don't realize just how hard it is to pull this off!
Pink floyd?!
The Pink Floyd is the best. Better than Pink Floyd
Thank you! So much Floyd influence in their songs!
The Bends, OK Computer and Kid A are albums I can listen to frequently. The Bends especially is a more traditional recording, and I love it. OK Computer blew my mind when it was first released, and still continues to do so. Kid A was a slow burn for me - like the guy said, I didn't know what to make of it initially, wanting as I did "More OK Computer". Slowly the tracks wormed their way into my mind, and it kind of infected me, and now I love it, especially Idioteque, Kid A, How To Disappear Completely, and In Limbo. Their follow ups since have been albums I enjoy and respect, but I have to be in a certain frame of mind to listen to them, and are not really very easy listening experiences. That's part of what makes them so good, that they are dense and complex.
You really hit the nail on head there or my experiences. BUT then 'In Rainbows' happened.....Mind blown [again] and fell in love with them all over again
Really got into them lately, can't wait for all the great songs I'll discover!
Happy hunting. It’s a deep rabbit hole
Aight what albums have you heard so far?
Man I really envy you
I think they've taken over from Pink Floyd as the musical overlords of quality & distinction!
In my personal opinion I belive they've become equals to the Beatles.
paranoid plane97 Yeah, because both of them have introduced, not created, a lot of genres/techniques for creating music. Radiohead also changed how we listen to music as well. I think their lyrics are honestly up there with The Beatles and Bob Dylan. It seems like they haven’t hit a major snag either.
@@paranoidplane9799 not really. The Beatles gave this world quite an amount of popular songs, but Radiohead are going in another direction. They explore the essence of Music itself, they are cosmically far ahead of any other band. They are smarter than The Beatles enough - not to have broken in freakin' seven recording years after a silly egoistic disagreement. They are as deep as Pink Floyd, but melodically and rhythmically are way much more talanted and skillful. And how many great albums does it need to be considered a classic group? Radiohead have done them. And the Story has just begun...
Me: You're Thom Yorke!
Thom Yorke: I am who I am
Me: My dad loves your shit
Also Me: *Vomits and cries from emotional pain and alcoholism*
oke
Im baby
When my dad died I got all of his old CDs when he was a teen... Lot of Duran duran and radiohead
lil queso aw, that’s something amazing to find :)
You don't see many great bands without controversy, arguments between members, drug use, or tragic ends to the musicians. I love to see that Radiohead is the expection to this.
Tool, Beck and Radiohead are pretty much musical perfection for me. Everything they do is outstanding.
Phil Yates I just don’t know how to start with Tool .. but else agree on anything else..
Along with Portishead. Amazing bands.
@@dreamtree1510 weezer too
Tool yes, Radiohead yes, Beck tho… they’re ok
@@bacht4799 tool is a great band MJK is talented. If you want a Tool - light try A Perfect Circle or Puscifer
random fact: if you check the music video for karma police and scroll down through the comments, on mr beat's main account, one comment states: The greatest band of all time. Tell your kids.
(not saying that i disagree)
Just will always be my favourite radiohead song, I really love the riff that builds throughout, it's a shame not so many people like it
i love it sm
i attended their first show in toronto after the stage collapse and the only time thom spoke throughout the entire show was towards the end and it was to address what happened and how terrible canadas justice system is. ( im canadian and i agree with him)
Have you heard Thom on PJ Harvey's 'this mess we're in'? Amazing track!
I can't describe how much I love this band. eversince I stared getting into music I would always listen to them they changed my life. The ranking would go IMO
1. Kid A
2. Ok Computer
3. In Rainbows
4. A Moon Shaped Pool
5. Hail To The Thief
6. The Bends
7. The King of Limbs
8. Pablo Honey
9. Amnesiac
I wouldn’t rate Amnesiac that low, put it above The Bends. Other than that solid list.
Amnesiac is better than httt imo
Same here.
I agree with your entire list although one tiny change AMSP before I.R
How the fuck is amnesiac at the bottom, bad list man, the king of limbs should be at the bottom
I just noticed that Johnny Greenwood might have the most squared head on the planet. Dude's cheeks are two right angles!
A band that stays relevant for 50years
Probably more than 50 years, I think they will be relevant to many people in over a hundred years
I still think the Bends is their best album.
It’s a tie between the Bends and Kid A for me as their best albums.
the Bends is highly underrated
It's my favourite :)) unfortunately I get a lot of insults because of it
Didn’t feel inclined to put on Ed O’Brien’s side projects? Played guitar on an Asian Dub Foundation LP in 2003 and recorded and toured with 7 Worlds Collide.,
Ok computer was released the day i was born lol
The way he pronounces Abingdon "Abington" makes me cry
The Bends is AWESOME!!!
The Best
Planet Telex is my favorite Radiohead song
Is that “I promise” in the background
The fact a gem like in rainbows was free, is simply marvelous
Are you Mr. Beat
Decks Dark is one of their underrated songs
You forgot Rez Peterson, who played Saxophone. He was a part of On a Friday before Jonny joined the band.
Sorry Rez!
Does this guy sound like Adam Scott to anyone else
I cannot unhear that
One of my fav channels bc of this series can’t wait for him to do Alice In Chains
The beat goes on? The beat goes round and round!
I learned about Radiohead from South Park. Im very glad. They are awesome!
I really hope they all live for ever
Greatest band of all time.
I've seen this video before and only just joined the dots that you're Mr. Beat! It's nice to know that such a great educational youtuber also has great taste in music.
radiohead's been real quiet since this dropped :(
How you feelin now?
I think In Rainbows was their best album.
Thanks so much for the synopsis. Saw them 3 times. Kid A, Amnesiac, and Hail to the Thief
I chatted with Ed at my local pub
Glad it was mentioned, as Pixies were a HUGE influence on them. Jonny Greenwood is on record saying that the reason they went away from the guitar for Kid A and Amnesiac was because “Pixies only have so many songs, you can only copy them for so long”
If the band members look like losers then you know there going to be good
This is a great journalist piece, and the ending is truly accurate! Well put... Thanks for this great work.
“Abington” are you for real where do you see the T
Bill Arsenic thats how its pronounced though. the tennis open wimbledon is pronounced similarly with a t sound
@@aidantf8 erm. No. AbingDon it is. AbingTon it is not. Perhaps confusing it with Arlingdon Cemetery
@@aidantf8 haha - no.
Aidanator865 since when is Wimbledon pronounced with a t? I’m not British but I’ve never heard that before.
Yeah but the capital of the UK is Lonton! Derrr.
Every week I tune into the BBC's 'In Rainbows' live session from the Basement.
Danny A me, too! For years...
I love that session...especially "You're all I Need"...Itd be so cool to sit-in on that live...
1. _In Rainbows_
2. _The Bends_
3. _OK Computer_
4. _Kid A_
5. _Hail to the Thief_
6. _Amnesiac_
7. _Moon Shaped Pool_
8. _Pablo Honey_
9. _The King of Limbs_
Great piece of info mate on Radiohead. Loved it. I am now more enlightened. I only had a few albums but might get some more now. Thanks for taking the time to do that piece.
All the best .
Paul Bedworth uk 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
As much as I love "I promise", I much prefer "lift" and "man of war" in terms of songs and music videos
You can't forget about their MTV beach house preformance
please do a brief history of bowie
That'd be an interesting one.
Not sure how "brief" a Bowie history
could be. His career goes all the way back to the '60s.
Fucking amazing band! Probably the best band of the past 50 years
Honestly, If they made just one more album that was another great record, that'd be enough. Pablo Honey is their worst LP and when I say that I mean slightly above average. What a crazy unbroken string of success! Especially critically!
Radiohead Songs About Poop.. gotta check that one out
😏
In all seriousness now they’re by far my favorite musicians.. I have all their records on vinyl EXCEPT hail to the thief.. it’s sold out everywhere 😢
Whoooooaaaaaaa Mr. Beat does music too???
words can’t explain how awesome of a band Radiohead is. They took the spot as my #1 band. I love that every album is unique but always Radiohead they never lost who they were, they only grew, it should also be noted how relevant their music is in 2021.
Right now I have ‘Amnesiac and ‘A Moon Shaped Pool’ on repeat, I’m also really enjoying Thom Yorkes solo work, the ‘Suspiria’ soundtrack is 10/10 genius.
Highest praise to this band for the marvelous work they’ve put out. Their ability to make you feel textures, their ability to make you feel different emotions is breathtaking. I love that I can listen to Radiohead whether I’m waking up or going to sleep, whether I’m happy or sad, or whether I’m feeling rock one day and electronic the next, they do it all.
I grew up in Abingdon here in the UK and its actually the oldest recored settlement in the UK!! Mentioned in the Doomsday Book n all sorts. Last I knew tho the high Street there had gone to pot but hey ho
Team Animal Collective would love a video in that smooth voice of yours please
+bennykification haha thanks for the great suggestion
This is so good. They need to make a radiohead film.
Radiohead, the kind of band that can make a good album off of songs that didn't make the cut for previous albums (the 11 added songs on OKNOTOK could make a decent album, like Amnesiac)
some of them kinda did make a decent "mini-album". That would be the Airbag/how am i driving EP which has 7 of those -i've played that one a lot!
jorgepeterbarton
Great EP. I listened to that as much as, OK Computer when it was released.
I just realized that you are mr beat lol
Me to yo
ive been watching your history channel since the alaska roadtrip(i googled KC to alaska once feeling adventurous and wanting to know if anyone ever made the drive and your video came up) and I remember thinking to myself "wow this guy has a great taste in music"
today I just discovered this music channel.. and notice the first video is over my favorite band ever..
Great taste Mr. Beat! keep up the great content
hands down my favorite band ever.
Damn, how i love this band
Just saw the boys in Pittsburgh last night, and they’re definitely still at the top of their game!
separator is the best radiohead song good video btw
+Whoppers777 One of my favorites! Thanks for watching :D
Whoppers777 Man, that song is so good. Of course, there's just too many good ones to even try to rank them I find. But it's certainly a notable selection.
Such an underrated song
that is one spicy ass take
I compltely agree, Separator is literally my favourite song ever
That song never fails to amaze me
2+2=5 is a reference to George Orwell’s dystopian novel “1984”
5:49 No one asked, but hey, the day i was born
Amnesiac is very underrated
I was like, "Is Mr. Beat doing bands now?!"
Glad I stumbled upon your music channel!
The first single was “Pop is dead.” Time to do your homework again... you get a C on your book report.
