I love this interview! You can tell the boys are much more comfortable with someone taking the piss and joking around a bit, unlike in other interviews where the interviewer is just praising and fanboying a little too hard, or just asking dumb boring questions.
Oh yeah of course, It's just usually interviews with Thom are painfully awkward because they don't know how to deal with him, this guy did a fantastic job.
Jonathan: "This is the general perception of Radiohead. Is that you sit around, picking small scabs on your arms..." Jonny and Thom: *inspects arms for scabs* Jonathan: "I added that bit for colour." LMAO
They are adorable people. I love their music, but what no one ever mentions is that besides being arguably the most influential band of the past few decades, they are also among the most humble and real. I would not be surprised if part of their success were due to their personalities. Whoever doesn't like these guys needs to get their head examined.
@@theadamfriedlandshow4668 They were "coating" each other, which in certain english circles means you "roast" everyone around you, continuously. But you try to use some brains doing it.
i wish they did more british chat shows, because they’re actually so godamn funny, especially when they are together. Jonny said in a podcast that he is a great comedy fan. Given the fact that he is usually the “silent one” u can’t tell but from the little interviews that he had done where he was actually comfortable talking u can see his classic british humour shine through and it’s bloody brilliant! would love to see them on graham norton
I bumped into Thom in a Californian hotel lobby the most recent year they played Coachella. The fella has a serious sense of humour - and he was very friendly.
its weird cause when I listen to Radiohead music I imagine them as super insecure, and depressed, but yet still happy. And this to me showed that. The interviewer was making fun of Thom or just joking around I guess, and he seemed happy about it and playful and stuff. I thought that was strange but cool. I know that if I were in that moment id be acting happy but id probably take that to heart and feel bad about it too.
They’re both so cool! I’ve seen so many great bands since my first in 1970, and I must say that Radiohead is in my top 5. I paid $1700 for tickets to see them with my youngest daughter and it was well worth the money. Musically and emotionally brilliant band!
You obviously don't know shit about Radiohead (funny band, eh?), but at least you have a few upvotes from other morons not having a clue about the band. 👍 Keep on the hard work mate.
You're making me feel old. I was 18 years (and 6 months to be exact) old when I watched this interview back in May 2003. It only seems like yesterday. Good to see that you young guys are into proper music! You will go far in life.
@@Ace_Of_Bass8 boo hoo some spoild celebrity dont know how to put a sentence together and his ego cant take it when he gets exposed, i think im gonna cry.
Yea once I was playing around on the guitar in my living room after school and I acidentally wrote the first few bars of electioneering by Radiohead. At the time I had only heard the song a few times on the radio or at the mall, never intentionally listened to it anyway. So when I hit the first few notes of the song, which are just standard g minor penatonic scale, i just kept going thinking that the melody was coming from my head. So I kept playing till I ended up finishing the song and after a while I ended up recording it. I put it out on UA-cam and decided to name the song ‘Somewhere over the rainbow 2’. The video got over 30 views on the internet and so Walt Disney signed me a record deal with them. I played ‘somewhere over the rainbow 2’ at a my first concert in Down Under Australia. Among all the head-banging kangaroos I see Jonny Greenwood, Radiohead guitarist, who by the way is even sexier in person. He looked angry. At this point in time I realised that the song hadn’t come from my head and I had actually ripped of Radiohead. So at the sight of Jonny boy i darted for the exit. But just as I got there he cornered and BOOM he cracked me over the head and I was out like a light. I woke up tied to a chair, disorientated, in what looked like a massive where house. In the corner I see Jonny sharpening what looked a large collection of weapons. After a while of thick silence he slowly walked towards me with dagger the size of his of a guitar. He said only to words, ‘My song’ He started to press the dagger into my cheek, drawing drops of blood. I screamed hard into my sodden gag. Screamed harder and harder hoping someone would receive my cry of hope. But I had little hope, at least until I heard a cry. The high pitched girly voice of Thom Yorke. My prayers had been answered. He ran forward, covered my ears, and let out an almighty wail. Johnny was brought to his knees. Thom Yorke had saved. He said that I was 2.40x better than Jonny anyway so now I play as Radiohead’s guitarist but in disguise as Jonny greenwood. True story. I know no one will believe me because it’s a very crazy story but it is true. Kangaroos do exist.
This is the era I was a full Radiohead fan, first album I got that was new. I was a year late to Kid A and Amnesiac saw them for the first time in Lollapalooza 2016 for their Moon Shaped Pool outing
You're wrong, Jonny! They have since used 2+2=5 in Class of 92. Wish I could link directly to the scene because it's 1.) a football documentary, 2.) kicks in right as a goal is scored.
I'm a drunk ass American with deep Irish roots and idk programming over the water seems much more loose and fun than the lame ass shit we got going on over here.
PSA to Americans: If an older relative of yours is Irish, but you we're born in America. You're American, and it annoys then fuck out of us when you claim you are Irish.
Thom left the CD on the sofa, hahha
+Mostly Harmless XD
They were going to perform. Probably came back and grabbed it after
Haha saw that myself
Jonathan himself even mentioned it lol
omg 666 likes! nobody fuck this up!
My favourite part will forever be 3:10 the slightly lost and broken way Thom says "I have a stylist.." :/
I love this interview! You can tell the boys are much more comfortable with someone taking the piss and joking around a bit, unlike in other interviews where the interviewer is just praising and fanboying a little too hard, or just asking dumb boring questions.
Same with the Morrissey interview
he was a complete douche, asking dumb boring questions and answering himself. how did you even reason that out
Yeah, this ,but Thom York Is💙💙
The gloomy doomy crack had me crying😂
@@Circleofdxxdcx - I just found this interview and I've watched it like 20 times in 24 hours its so brilliant...
1:34 Jonny laughs and Thom looks at him in confusion. This means Thom's the gloomy one that reads old russian novels.
this is correct there exists a photo of mid-90s Thom reading and captioned "Thom brushes up on his Dostoyevky. The others swap mother-in-law jokes"
this video is violently british
'Violently'... That's the best adverb ever.
Amazing interviewer, he trapped Thom in a box so well it was adorable seeing him kind of struggle to deal with that
in a good way though.
Oh yeah of course, It's just usually interviews with Thom are painfully awkward because they don't know how to deal with him, this guy did a fantastic job.
I agree. This is probably my favorite interview they did.
Ross does take the piss a lot and it really works.
Packt like a sardine in a chrushd tin box
This is the interview that stole my heart.... Thom seems so animated and lively, haha!
Jonathan: "This is the general perception of Radiohead. Is that you sit around, picking small scabs on your arms..."
Jonny and Thom: *inspects arms for scabs*
Jonathan: "I added that bit for colour."
LMAO
hahahah the way they genuinely look at their arms is hilarious
1:23 lmao

LMAO at Jonanthan Ross making fun of someone else's hair!
Tbf Jonathan Ross has pretty fashionable hair... for a middle aged Jewish woman in the 1840s
Jam 😂😂😂😂
this has to be the most passive agressive interview of all time😂😂
It's unbelievable these guys were nearly 40 here. They act and look like they're in their early 20s.
If I didn't know them I'd say they are 20 something
they were *what*
They were like 33
They were in their 30s in 2003. They are pretty young there actually.
Thom was 35 and Johnny was 32
I have a stylist...
03:41 Best moment.
- You can do a breezy, summery pop song, can you?
- We've got lots? (looks hurt)
@young machines The only one
Pablo honey had some poppy songs. Ripcord, Vegetable, Prove Yourself, and I Can’t were pop-like and less depressing.
*"you can do a bweezy summewee pop song can ya"
Pop is dead.
We just witnessed ground zero for In Rainbows.

This is why jonathan ross is great, imagine having to interview those 2 introverts, it was almost awkward but ross pulled it off
0:12 I love the way Jonny flopped down to the sofa.. so cute ❤️
oh wow too cute 😂❤
No other interviewer has gotten them to liven up as they do here. It's cool seeing them like this.
This is wonderful! So nice to see someone highlight their oft-overlooked sense of humor.
Funnily enough, their next album became considered their happiest.
king of limbs is their happiest i think. there are a lot of sad songs from in rainbows esp. all i need and videotape
@@campuo6202 Yeah, people just say IR is their "happiest" album because of the instrumentals.
i like how even their happiest has terribly sad songs and a suicide outro lmfao
In Rainbows their “happiest” ? Nah definitely not
King of Limbs most definitely one of their most optimistic... Closes out with Separator, a genuine beautiful masterpiece
"I can see that but why?" is one of my favorite responses ever.
They took the Tavares CDs and went and wrote In Rainbows
Thom is so adorable lmao
This is one of the best interviews of Radiohead I've seen. Totally hilarious, and Thom and Jonny were having a good laugh right along with it.
legend has it 15 step was written as a eurovision entry inspired by tavares and jonathan ross
This is canon as far as I'm concerned...
@MrBonniesdaddy Only winding you up!
no yeah yeah yeah in the middle tho. missed opportunity
I love how Thom's pants are rolled up at the bottom. So cute. I know the struggle of being short!
+J Roo me 2 thanks
fuck
Thom isnt actually THAT short, the rest of the band is just stupid tall
I'm 171 cm and thought that he was like 174 cm or something. To quote Ross here...: "Imagine my surprise"
@@Throwaway-kg7ft he is very short.1.66 m is very short.but he doesn't look like very short because of his posture.
0:17 look at him he’s so cute 🥺
wish i was as cute as him lol.
they're so bloody cute jesus christ
Ross is a great interviewer, love the banter. Also, Taveres are an awesome band!
Oh... Johnny is so shy. He talks with his hand over his mouth... Trying to cover or hide him self
I've been trying to figure out who he reminds me of. I just got it. Bill Hader playing Stefon on Saturday Night Live.
@@burnlastsunday OH NO YOU’RE SO RIGHT

The world needs this.

Really love this. Feel like Ross is a pro for making that interview kind of work!
His eye gives him character. I love him. And Johnathan too.
Kid A is my favorite radiohead album...everything in its right place, how to disappear completely, optimistic etc.
I wouldn't have expected Jonny to do this big interview on tv. I heard he hates doing interviews because he thinks he comes across as stupid
which he actually does
Hard to come across as smart when these pop talk shows are so stupid

So many of their albums for me to discover. I can't wait.
Great interview. Mid-2000s Friday Night with Jonathan Ross was bloody great.
That was one of their best interview, ever.
3:10 “I have a stylist!🥺” How is he just so cute all the time😭
hes adorable
Thom was dying on the inside when he made fun of his hair
"i can see that but why?" lol
Thom was definitely enjoying himself during this don't let the awkwardness fool you
Yeah he's had quite a bit of interviews where he's definitely not enjoying himself, this ain't one of them.
The two most adorable weirdos in the world. ❤
One of the best bands to grace this earth
You can tell by this interview that Ross really listened to the music and knew well the artist
That's what makes him a fantastic host.
Yes he is a massive fan.
