Radiohead does not make me depressed. It makes me free and home. From their music I can climb up and face life, because I know I am not alone. They know the contents of my soul so deep.
Let Down still haunts me when I hear it. Terribly bleak and beautiful. The whole album OK Computer haunts me when I hear it. The vibe on that record is so full of possibilities and I was at a place in my life where everything was possible.
It used to be my favorite song, my "theme song" pretty much from 1998 to 2008. Today, I don't know which one it would be... I also love "All I need", "How to dissappear completely", "give up the ghost" and... I don't know anymore they made so much great songs. Been a fan since 1998 and I still love them.
@@brunobailly7013 Oh yea, I love all the songs you mentioned and many many more like The Pyramid Song, Codex, Weird Fishes, Separator, Little by Little, Tinker Tailor Soldier Sailor Rich Man Poor Man Beggar Man Thief, man you could do a four album best of easily. Still my favorite active band.
One of their most overrated songs in my mind. It’s not bad at all I just think it’s relatively boring compared to their other stuff. I feel like I’ve heard a hundred songs like it too
@@seffers4788 Well, that's like your opinion man! My opinion is that it is a real beauty! When I hear Weird Fishes, I think back to Let Down as how their multi guitar parts have evolved over the years, is remarkable.
i was working at Wherehouse Music in The Woodlands, TX when i got my hands on an advanced copy of KId A ... by the days end i was pumping what was probably the most anticipated album of my lifetime through my system at my apartment with my girlfriend, bandmates and a dear music lovin friend of ours who was like 6'5 with floppy hair, a cowboy hat and still in high school at the time.... He didnt have a band at the time but had some songs we helped record onto 8 track demos... So weird because by the end of that decade Rolling Stone put out the top 100 albums of the decade and Kid A (which blew us a way in that apartment living room ) took rollings stones #1 spot.. with our friend Win Butler's record at like number 4 or 5 with Funeral .. which was really recorded only like 4 years later.
I saw them in Warrington on Oct 2nd 2000- the same day Kid A came out in the UK. The experience was marred by hundreds of people who'd apparently paid money to stand and talk right through the show :/
“In Rainbows” is where I feel they got the balance of electronic and rock right. It is the apex (thus far) of bridging the complex rock sounds of “The Bends”, the form, conceptualization and engineering direction they went with in “OK Computer” and the electronic/ambient feel of “Kid A”. To me, “In Rainbows” is a triumph.
@@johnnyrocco123 Only for new Radiohead listeners. Some of us that follow them since Pablo Honey appreciate a lot better Kid-A, Ok Computer and The Bends
Radiohead has great music and lyrics but it's probably the most depressing band I've ever heard. There are some exceptions to that, but ... yeah. I don't just mean melancholic by the way, but depressing. 'Don't get any big ideas, they're not going to happen' etc. No thanks. No Surprises ... ugh. Great songs but I refuse to listen to them anymore.
I am glad rick is giving out some love for Pablo honey. Most radiohead fans hate it because its very simple compared to the bends. But I remember everyone in high school thought it was a great album. At time I thought it was a better record than the bends. And I disagree rick about creep. One of their best. And everyone at the time thought it was the stand out track.
Married, two children, running a business music stopped being a part of my life and then OK Computer came out and it was like Radiohead has sneaked into my soul and stolen my deepest feelings and made a record of heart rending beauty. It perfectly mapped my unease and the growing disfunction in my marriage. Kid A became the soundtrack to the break up and free fall. I hadn't dared to listen to it for years but bought a copy a few weeks ago and played it whilst driving. I was fine until I got to the last track where I ha to pull over as the tears were making it hard for me to see. I listen to just about every genre of music and am lucky enough to work in such a way that I can listen to music all day and every day but for me nothing has the emotional power of Radiohead.
Thanks for sharing mate, Radiohead are one of the few bands that for me touches the deepest core of my heart and soul, there’s REAL magic in Radiohead for sure, pure emotion
This comment is the reason why they are up there with the greatest artists of all time. No matter who you are this bands invites you in for mind enticing and aesthetically irrestistable trip to a world where music is kind of its own language. Yeah, I agree w the last line.
I was at their TRNSMT 2017 gig after separating from my wife. An amazing gig! I was watching footage from the gig on youTube this morning with tears streaming down my face. Super powerful emotional responses but also just seeing the utter joy on the faces of the audience was just so lovely
I always come back to Radiohead. I may not listen everyday, but some days they are an all consuming obsession. A truly great band. See them live when life returns.
They create complete SONGS, no riffs, no lyrics, no bullshit singling...they put everything into creating great cohesive songs. Nice breakdown of the creativity of their creative choices of notes and chords- they’re so emotive to fit the songs
Not only Radiohead is probably the best band of all times but they are at the forefront of the dissolution of the frontiers between art-music and pop-music. Something remarkable in and of itself.
Any time anyone uses the phrase "of all time" I cringe. It is pointless as no entity in creation ANYWHERE (in this dimension at any rate) can see into the future. Thus ALL TIME makes no logical sense as all time would, obviously, have to include any time in the future...and, unless you have the capacity to live forever, you have no idea what music may come.
Great episode! I was a recording engineer (still am) when I first heard OK Computer. I could usually listen to anything and figure out how it was recorded, but all bets were off from the start with Airbag. I was like, "WTF is this? Distorted drums? This must be a mistake...but clearly it's not.". It was like that album got dropped off on earth by aliens, I'd never heard anything like it.It's very rare to have something come along that doesn't any reference point.
This is why i think some people don't get Radiohead, they need a reference point, but exactly why i was intrigued and ultimately love with their music, which to me is more art than music. Timeless, yet of it's time, as good now (if not better), than it was at the time it was released. Something that will not always be appreciated in it's time, but will be loved and treasured long after 99.9% of today's music has been long forgotten.
I forgot where I read this, but I remember Thom said he made a bet or something with Jonny to see how many chords they could shove into a song. As a result, Just was born.
Radiohead is one of the most unique band I've ever heard in my entire life and they keep on going like the Energizer bunny rabbit. I am beginning to realize that to get the most out of your videos I have to watch them a few times to appreciate the musical insights! Thank you Rick!
Like the band or not, you have to respect them; talented, daring, principled and consistently ahead of their time. So nice to see you're a big fan too. I would love it if you could go over some Johnny Marr arpeggios soon!
@@edsnotgod They have some hooks. But aside from the question of whether they have any hooks, I take issue with the implication that music has to be "hooky" to have lasting value--even in pop music.
@@edsnotgod I think I'm done here. If I try to argue in support of Radiohead's musical significance relative to Lil' Wayne and Yoko Ono, it's likely to fall on (your) deaf ears, and frankly I feel like it's so self-evident that I shouldn't have to argue.
I just listened to “everything in its right place” about 5 million times because of you. Never heard it until last week. Omfg I cannot stop listening to that chord progression! I have had 2 friends that were Radiohead nuts, and I still didn’t listen to them, until you had the intro to that piece in your 20 greatest keyboard intros!
Radiohead is my favorite band. Ever. I literally listen to OK Computer, no joke, like once a week. There are many instances in that album that bring me to tears. It’s such a fucking masterpiece!!
Same. OKC is still my favorite. From 2001 to about mid-2005 I ONLY listened to Radiohead - The Bends, OKC, KidA and Amnesiac (added HTTT when it was released). I love all of their albums (still have not spent much time with AMSP). What I also find fascinating, and it says so much about their music, is when I talk to other RH fans, everybody has a different favorite song. Only 1 or 2 other bands have that phenomenon.
This whole video is making me fall in love with Radiohead all over again.....gah. Their chord progressions and melodies are so hauntingly gorgeous. More than most any other band they have this ability to express the most _subtle_ and nuanced and ineffable emotions into a musical language.
65 this week and have just discovered Radiohead - OMG - Paranoid Android - can’t find the words to describe how this reaches into my soul and moves me to tears
I liked Radiohead when creep came out, it was pretty cool and kinda simple for them for the time, but I started to really love them the more they progressed. Their melodies and arrangements got more and more complex but so unbelievably amazing and beautiful. Now they’re one of my favourite bands of all time, and when it comes to the history of modern rock music, they’re definitely legends.
I saw them in DC at the 930 Club on that same Ok Computer tour. The 930 is about the same size as the venue that you mentioned. It was an absolutely perfect Rock Show experience; not too big, not too small. Great acoustics. They played the CD from beginning to end. Possibly the best show I've ever seen. They sounded just like the record, the professionalism was bar none; the performances top-notch. Unforgettable. That's what they were.
That fast piano run in Daydreaming... Actually Jonny plays it with both hands. His right hand just keeps on playing the A-D-E pattern while his left hand adds the other notes in between (first C# and F#, then C and F, etc). That makes it unbelievably easier to play.
To simply not talk about “In Rainbows” is a slap in the face to Radiohead fans. The first chord of “House of Cards” may be the most heartfelt use of the Drop D tuning ever. And “Reckoner?!” And “Videotape?!” Good God, what an album...
Decks Dark on moon shaped pool might be my all-time. Then again there have been probably 15 Radiohead songs that were my all-time favorite at one point or another. Brilliant.
Radiohead is one of my all time favorite bands. Along with Tool, Floyd, Zeppelin, Queen, Porcupine Tree & Toad the Wet Sprocket. So glad to see other fellow musicians appreciating the same music for the same musical reasons!!!
queen and radiohead have been my 2 favorite artists for a long time. maybe it’ll change someday, but those will definitely stay in my top 5 for the rest of my life
Yes me too, in Wechter rock festival, and before them (if I do remember right) it was Sheryl Crow on stage, and the contrast was... Fu..ing HUGE !!! :)
@@yoannhappe9281 I was there. Took a festival coach from Newcastle upon Tyne. What a line-up!!!! And when Radiohead came on, the whole world appeared to have stopped, knowing they are witnessing greatness.
I've liked Radiohead for more than a year but just recently everything has really clicked and they are one of my favorite bands now. Most bands dont even come close to the talent they posess. They are just so good man.....
Man, Radiohead has had such an impact on me musically and I am a jazz pianist. IN Rainbows though.. That album has so many gems. Wish you would have addressed it, but as it is this video is very cool! Thank you!
How you articulate your awakening to Radiohead is spot on. (It's personal when that "light bulb" goes off and you realize how different/special this band is. Everyone has their own moment.)
Radiohead is by far, by far by far by far my favorite band. Even their less inspired songs are so interesting. And their highlights are true masterpieces.
I don't play any instruments but I love watching you breakdown the songs. I'm learning a lot about music from you. Radiohead, Pink Floyd, and Led Zeppelin are my holy trinity. They are the cream of the crop.
It's funny because I was a huge Led Zeppelin AND Beatles fan from roughly age 13 to 18 (when most of my friends were fans of Nirvana, Soundgarden, Iron Maiden or even Sepultura), I became a Pink Floyd fan around 17 and then a Radiohead fan since the age of 18. But I've only realized a few months ago how much I still love Led Zep and "Led Zeppelin IV" is still one of my all time favorite albums (or maybe it's just that I'm going through a midlife crisis haha 😅)
@@brunobailly7013 sorry i didnt see this earlier. Thanks for your reply. The more you learn how to appreciate really great, complex, creative, innovative music the more your mind expands - wanting more, needing more, like food for your soul. Led Zeppelin, Radiohead, Tool, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, early progressive Genesis are true outliers in the music world. They are on a much higher level.
@@jennifersun2638 i bought a good ukulele when they were in vigue. Quickly found my carpal tunnel i had surgery on is prohibitive of playing. Piano maybe? 🙂🎹. Thanks
Kid A changed music for me. Before then I was just obsessed with classic and Indy rock. Still don’t think another band has made an album to touch it tbh. Crazy to think now how badly it was received by critics here in the UK at the time.
Hey Rick, you have REALLY been hitting your stride with how you compose your videos over the last year. Would you PLEASE revisit Radiohead? This is a good video, but I have NO doubt that today you could do SO much more to help explain why Radiohead is SUCH a great band. Thanks in advance, even if you never see this. I LOVE your channel.
We are so lucky to have Radiohead out there writing music. The breakdown of "Daydreaming" reminded of how they're light years beyond most other bands in terms of the chord structures and progressions they're using. I would love to hear an analysis of "Pyramid Song."
I didn't begin to appreciate Radiohead until I heard In Rainbows. I immediately sought out every album and live performance available. I know some people that don't get them and once I did they quickly became one of my most listened to bands. Everything In It's Right Place, Exit Music (For A Film), All I Need and Pyramid Song are pure mastery for starters. Ramin Djawadi uses them most in the Westworld soundtrack covers for good reason.
Huge Radiohead fan here for years. Thanks for bringing to light the underrated ideas Radiohead put together in the early albums. When I started watching your videos, it felt very overwhelming hearing "that's an ____ played over ____" But as time has passed I feel more and more aware of what you are talking about. Which is especially nice when talking Radiohead! Cheers from Canada Rick!
everything in its right place (first track on Kid A) just feels so powerful. especially when you have headphones, the synths just feel overpowering. It has good sound design without losing harmonic complexity.
The opening to Kid A (Everything in its Right Place) given me chills EVERY time I hear it. If I'm on a late night flight, that's playing through my headphones as soon as I sit down. I absolutely love that album.
I’ve seen Radiohead a number of times and they’ve blow me away each time. I’m going with my wife to see Thom in March and I can’t wait. As a metal and jazz fan I’d have to say Radiohead is just one of those bands that simply will never be replaced. I feel Radiohead and Failure are just 2 of the most unique bands in music today. Great video! 👍🏻
Hiya Rick . Thank you for this . I think you are so talented and a great teacher . I loved Kid A so much and the follow up, but I can’t listen to them anymore . It is so emotionally intense . I find it hard to listen to Radiohead for this reason , but oh my their music sounds so complex and difficult to play . They really must put everything into every gig . Thank you .
Thank for this! As a musician myself, I know lots of other musicians, ALL of whom are huge Radiohead fans. Wonderful to see your passion for this music! That's the thing about Radiohead: You can't merely *like* them. :-)
So glad you took a look at their piano-based stuff. The wild thing about Everything In Its Right Place though is that part of the performance is Ed capturing Thom's performance in electronic loops and replaying them, live, differently, every time. That is a crucial part of the band's ethic, there is no backup tape, it has to be real.
I know nothing about music theory, but I know what I like, and you described what I like in a most delightful way. I must reiterate the sentiment of other viewers who wish to see you give us something from In Rainbows.
I'm just a humble hand percussionist, and have absolutely NO idea of what Rick is talking about when it comes to scales, notes, tempos, etc., but I STILL enjoy how he dissects and describes the songs he does!
"Hail to the Thief" tends to get forgotten about, but it's one of my favorites of theirs. Arguably the best of the "Anti-Bush/Blair" albums that came out post-9/11.
I think a million people died. And it was all based on so called American intelligence. Then Afghanistan happened, I forgot about Syria where they carried a bombing mission of over 12 months with no progress. But The Clash are the best political band. People forget about the call up and guns of Brixton.....
Both the Bends and OK Computer are desert island discs. So original and Johnny Greenwood is very underrated as a unique guitarist. Best music advice given by Thom . .paraphrasing of course but it was something along the line of "If you want to write original music, don't do covers"
Man i really like your channel but this, this is amazing. And let down is one of the best radiohead songs, i had like 16,17 when i first knew them. Really changed my life. And i really like that you talk about this. thanks again rick you are changing people life's too. (sorry for the bad english)
Incredible technical and emotional analysis of Radiohead. Rick speaks the truth. Always. And so f*cking fluent on his instruments. So far beyond "thinking" about the notes, chords and progressions. And into the feel.
I can't find words to tell you how much I love your channel and the way you teach us the music you appreciate and why. You are priceless for me. You are precious for me and I thank you so much.
On Airbag, Thom in fact plays a guitar with the B string tuned up to A, meaning the two highest strings are ringing out open throughout most of the song. This is verified by the fact that Thom is handed a different guitar every time he plays Airbag- the tuning is different to the standard tuning of his usual guitar.
I was in a band called Push that was going to support Radiohead at the Plaza in Glasgow and possibly go onto their UK tour...95/96...I loved them; sadly their management cancelled the tour citing instruments stolen etc from US leg and new album etc....would have loved to have played on their bill and remember chatting with their sound engineer in the Barn at Oxford on the phone about along with their new material and how he'd actually listened to and enjoyed our EP release as a tiny indie band (I was amazed hehe had! !) and also remember that day I collected my preordered ok computer in 97 and just being amazed as we a group of us musos listened to it collectively the same day...great videos sir, inspiring and informative and acknowledging true creative talent and breaking it down without patronising....thank you!!
uh loco you know sometimes I play a C-sharp and accidentally say C. Can't do anything about it once it's been up. Sorry! It's what happens when you get old haha!!
The early Radiohead albums, Pablo Honey, The Bends and OK Computer are some of my faves. I listen to these albums when I'm on long haul flights, helps me zone out, relax and ignore the other annoying passengers. It's become essential in my coping mechanism on long flights to the point where I actually look forward to flights so I can can indulge. Radiohead are not the only ones, there are others too like early 70's Pink Ployd, who made equally beautiful and calming music.
My Radiohead timeline: 1998 - girlfriend bought me OKC because I loved paranoid Android. I hated it and it’s one of the only CDs I’ve ever taken back to the shop! Some years later - I bought OKC and loved every second of it like a long lost brother Even more years later - an old friend of mine asked me why I didn’t have The Bends. I said I didn’t know, bought it, and immediately loved every moment of it. Conclusion - it took me waaay too long to get to appreciate Radiohead.
Great video, your channel is the only reason I go on UA-cam regularly. I was working at Virgin Megastore when OK Computer came out. Was life changing. Radiohead were like gods back then.
Daydreaming is such a beautiful song. I remember when the record came out and I listened to it, I was in Singapore then for summer vacation. It was the soundtrack of whole trip, exploring through Singapore. Every time I listen to Daydreaming and the whole of "A moon shaped pool" it feels as though I was there again. Amazing how great memories can easily be tied to beautiful music. Now, every time I travel to a new place or explore a new country, even as simple as traveling to a city I've never been before. I pick out a few albums that I love, some new ones that I was trying to get on. So that when I listen to that music again, I will feel as if I was there.
Radiohead is a top-tier band for me too. They have an incredible amount of music that's just really strong, melodic and interesting. Some of it's not as immediate as other stuff but it tends to grow on me. Thom Yorke's solo stuff is worth keeping up with too. I don't like everything but his collaborations are often really good, and any song that's him and a piano has a chance of being great too. I put him and Radiohead up there with the best bands with the strongest discographies.
In returning to a lot of older great bands like Mercury Rev, The Shins, am now dissecting Ok Computer even if I was really late to the game with Radiohead, I'm ashamed to say. But maybe a slightly more distanced view from the hype also gave me different appreciation of just how incredible it is. The lp's depth affords one so many angles to view it from. The instrumentation, the complex, at times, quirky, chord progressions, Tom's lyrics, his brilliant, and memorably beautiful melodic lines as well as how much the band is such a cohesive and organic unit. There's numerous great works from all eras, and probably many I/you/we never heard, but as things like Abbey Road, Aladdinsane, Dark Side stand up perennially, so does OK Computer, really a landmark work.
Of course, tremendous respect to all the brilliant music you discuss and play but I would like to take this moment to recognize you, Rick Beato as the real MVP. The capacity of knowledge as well as your memory and plain ole fashioned musicianship is truly astounding. Protect your brain at all costs!
Radiohead is what you get when you put together five musical geniuses, give them free reign with no boundaries, and team them up with one of the most underrated producers of all time, Nigel Godrich (another genius).
Radiohead has been one of my principle theme song bands since probably elementary school, since my parents listened to them. I remember hearing the OK Computer album so young and seeing sunlight cast hazy down through car windows that were higher up than me after school or on car trips while I was in the back seat, and time just seemed to slow down cinematically whenever we went through their albums.
Love Radiohead, the great thing about them is that 99% of bands get more and more commercial as they get popular. Radiohead are almost the exact opposite, they got less and less commercial and more arty as their popularilty grew. Amazing group.
First of all...thanks Mr. Beato! I'm 52! I grew up with 80's music ( and i have great respect for the band/music of 60's and70's), I love/ adore band like Simple minds,U2,Cure,Depeche mode and many others from the 80's! Obviously I love Radiohead! I Think They are the best of the 90's and one of the best band ever! I Think "Paronoid android" , " In Rainbows", "The bends" are masterpieces! And Radiohead are also the reason why I love/adore Muse....Muse that for me are one the best band of the last 20 years and one of the best live band ever!! Thank you, grazie ancora Mr. Beato. Greetings from Italy, saluti dall'Italia!!
I just found your channel today, Just is also my first song that made me fall into Radiohead til now! Great song that introduce me to the one of the greatest band on the galaxy!!
Radiohead is our Beatles, IMO. Amazing breakdowns here. I love hearing someone who really knows music analyzing interesting music. Next, Rick, “Pyramid Song”. :-)
I love this video. My father, a tenor sax player who studied theory with some Berkelee guys, used to sit in front of the piano and similarly explain the chords and arrangements of Radiohead to me!
Radiohead does not make me depressed. It makes me free and home. From their music I can climb up and face life, because I know I am not alone. They know the contents of my soul so deep.
Let Down is one of the most beautiful things that someone has ever created with guitars

I literally hate people who say that. They are talking out of their bland, boring, uncool, dull little arseholes
Maybe an unpopular pick, but Pyramid Song is my favourite Radiohead song. It is really incredibly moving. Amnesiac is a really underrated album.
It is one of the few songs that is simultaneously rhythmically destabilizing, yet melodic, and infinitely expressive.
That’s my favorite song of all time
Pyramid Song is definitely one of the best things they’ve ever done.

"No riffs, no lyrics, no singing" LMAO have you ever listened to radiohead
@@RabbidTheNabbit I don't think you read the comment right
Not only Radiohead is probably the best band of all times but they are at the forefront of the dissolution of the frontiers between art-music and pop-music. Something remarkable in and of itself.
What?! That statement is not very solid, I'm sure people wouldn't call Radiohead something close to pop.
Yeah, mainstream music would’ve been more apt
Any time anyone uses the phrase "of all time" I cringe. It is pointless as no entity in creation ANYWHERE (in this dimension at any rate) can see into the future. Thus ALL TIME makes no logical sense as all time would, obviously, have to include any time in the future...and, unless you have the capacity to live forever, you have no idea what music may come.
@@hpoonis2010 Thank you for the philosophical clarification. Obviously I meant of all time up until today.
I mean, you're talkin of the Beatles right?
Airbag has one of the coolest freakin bass lines I've ever heard! It's so sporadic and rhythmically interesting! Love your channel man
You probably know this, but it was supposed to be overdubbed but they liked the stop start nature so they left it!
I strongly agree! That bass sounds like so much fun!!
I find the base line in Burn the Witch very similar at points.
Jonny looks so cool when he plays airbag
@@williamdufort176 I was gonna say the same thing! It is so reminiscent of Airbag in that way.
Great episode! I was a recording engineer (still am) when I first heard OK Computer. I could usually listen to anything and figure out how it was recorded, but all bets were off from the start with Airbag. I was like, "WTF is this? Distorted drums? This must be a mistake...but clearly it's not.". It was like that album got dropped off on earth by aliens, I'd never heard anything like it.It's very rare to have something come along that doesn't any reference point.
This is why i think some people don't get Radiohead, they need a reference point, but exactly why i was intrigued and ultimately love with their music, which to me is more art than music. Timeless, yet of it's time, as good now (if not better), than it was at the time it was released. Something that will not always be appreciated in it's time, but will be loved and treasured long after 99.9% of today's music has been long forgotten.
goddamn, you made me want to hear every single Radiohead's song again, sir.
Same. I'm making a Spotify playlist as soon as I finish this comment.
I forgot where I read this, but I remember Thom said he made a bet or something with Jonny to see how many chords they could shove into a song. As a result, Just was born.
Not just it's paranoid android
@@sneedsfeed5752 nope its just
It's on the video they put out for The Bends. They discussed it there as a challenge to put as many chords in a song, just.
Paranoid android was put together from 4 different parts that they gave to the drummer and got him to arrange it
I believe the only chord not included is a B. I kind of wish they had thrown that in there behind the solo. It would have sounded fine.
I LOVE "Airbag". The part where Thom sings "In a fast German car, I'm amazed that I survived. An airbag saved my life." Gives me chills every time
They’re the best band ever for me. So innovative and ahead of the crowd.
Radiohead is one of the most unique band I've ever heard in my entire life and they keep on going like the Energizer bunny rabbit. I am beginning to realize that to get the most out of your videos I have to watch them a few times to appreciate the musical insights! Thank you Rick!
Great! Radiohead rules! You should do more analysis of their songs I am sure many of us would be interested 😀
Jens here? it means im on the right channel.
Haha! Thanks Gabriel!
hahhahah just thought the same!
Part 2!
Tof voor je hé Jens! Die erkenning die je zeker verdient! Groeten, Luc
Let Down is my favorite song. It’s a masterpiece.
Like the band or not, you have to respect them; talented, daring, principled and consistently ahead of their time. So nice to see you're a big fan too. I would love it if you could go over some Johnny Marr arpeggios soon!
@@edsnotgod They have some hooks. But aside from the question of whether they have any hooks, I take issue with the implication that music has to be "hooky" to have lasting value--even in pop music.
@@edsnotgod Yeah? So? Are you equating Lil' Wayne and Yoko Ono with Radiohead in terms of musical substance?
@@edsnotgod I think I'm done here. If I try to argue in support of Radiohead's musical significance relative to Lil' Wayne and Yoko Ono, it's likely to fall on (your) deaf ears, and frankly I feel like it's so self-evident that I shouldn't have to argue.
@@davidbaker231 ❤️❤️
Pablo honey wasnt really ahead of their time
Their music moves you deep inside. We can tell. I feel this same communion.
I just listened to “everything in its right place” about 5 million times because of you. Never heard it until last week. Omfg I cannot stop listening to that chord progression! I have had 2 friends that were Radiohead nuts, and I still didn’t listen to them, until you had the intro to that piece in your 20 greatest keyboard intros!
That opening to everything in its right place always gives me goosebumps.
Radiohead is my favorite band. Ever. I literally listen to OK Computer, no joke, like once a week. There are many instances in that album that bring me to tears. It’s such a fucking masterpiece!!
Same. OKC is still my favorite. From 2001 to about mid-2005 I ONLY listened to Radiohead - The Bends, OKC, KidA and Amnesiac (added HTTT when it was released). I love all of their albums (still have not spent much time with AMSP). What I also find fascinating, and it says so much about their music, is when I talk to other RH fans, everybody has a different favorite song. Only 1 or 2 other bands have that phenomenon.
Weird Fishes is my favourite Radiohead song. It's just eerily beautiful and sad all at once. Like the act of drowning was put into a song.
This whole video is making me fall in love with Radiohead all over again.....gah.
Their chord progressions and melodies are so hauntingly gorgeous. More than most any other band they have this ability to express the most _subtle_ and nuanced and ineffable emotions into a musical language.
65 this week and have just discovered Radiohead - OMG - Paranoid Android - can’t find the words to describe how this reaches into my soul and moves me to tears
I liked Radiohead when creep came out, it was pretty cool and kinda simple for them for the time, but I started to really love them the more they progressed. Their melodies and arrangements got more and more complex but so unbelievably amazing and beautiful. Now they’re one of my favourite bands of all time, and when it comes to the history of modern rock music, they’re definitely legends.
Insane, emotionally insane. My mind would cry every time I listen to all that intros you played. Please, keep analyzing their songs.
I love 'Let Down' so beautiful.
I saw them in DC at the 930 Club on that same Ok Computer tour. The 930 is about the same size as the venue that you mentioned. It was an absolutely perfect Rock Show experience; not too big, not too small. Great acoustics. They played the CD from beginning to end. Possibly the best show I've ever seen. They sounded just like the record, the professionalism was bar none; the performances top-notch. Unforgettable. That's what they were.
That fast piano run in Daydreaming... Actually Jonny plays it with both hands. His right hand just keeps on playing the A-D-E pattern while his left hand adds the other notes in between (first C# and F#, then C and F, etc). That makes it unbelievably easier to play.
To simply not talk about “In Rainbows” is a slap in the face to Radiohead fans. The first chord of “House of Cards” may be the most heartfelt use of the Drop D tuning ever. And “Reckoner?!” And “Videotape?!” Good God, what an album...
Reckoner is one of the most beautiful and emotional songs I’ve ever heard
House of Cards is in F. The only song on the album in Drop D is Bodysnatchers
Decks Dark on moon shaped pool might be my all-time. Then again there have been probably 15 Radiohead songs that were my all-time favorite at one point or another. Brilliant.
Good ear! Don't know why it doesn't get more love along with Identikit.
Radiohead is one of my all time favorite bands. Along with Tool, Floyd, Zeppelin, Queen, Porcupine Tree & Toad the Wet Sprocket. So glad to see other fellow musicians appreciating the same music for the same musical reasons!!!
I love that you mentioned porcupine tree another genius that is Steven Wilson.
Toad the Wet Sprocket omg!! Love love love them!!
queen and radiohead have been my 2 favorite artists for a long time. maybe it’ll change someday, but those will definitely stay in my top 5 for the rest of my life
I saw Radiohead live in 1997 too, what a time to see them!
Yes me too, in Wechter rock festival, and before them (if I do remember right) it was Sheryl Crow on stage, and the contrast was... Fu..ing HUGE !!! :)
@@yoannhappe9281 I was there. Took a festival coach from Newcastle upon Tyne. What a line-up!!!! And when Radiohead came on, the whole world appeared to have stopped, knowing they are witnessing greatness.
OK Computer is one of my all time favorite albums.
Me too ❤
If I had to choose only one song I could ever listen to again it'd be Paranoid Android
Same here
I've liked Radiohead for more than a year but just recently everything has really clicked and they are one of my favorite bands now. Most bands dont even come close to the talent they posess. They are just so good man.....
It's been cool witnessing Thom Yorke's progression piano over the years. Johnny too.
Man, Radiohead has had such an impact on me musically and I am a jazz pianist. IN Rainbows though.. That album has so many gems. Wish you would have addressed it, but as it is this video is very cool! Thank you!
How you articulate your awakening to Radiohead is spot on. (It's personal when that "light bulb" goes off and you realize how different/special this band is. Everyone has their own moment.)
Radiohead is by far, by far by far by far my favorite band. Even their less inspired songs are so interesting. And their highlights are true masterpieces.
I don't play any instruments but I love watching you breakdown the songs. I'm learning a lot about music from you. Radiohead, Pink Floyd, and Led Zeppelin are my holy trinity. They are the cream of the crop.
Linda L exactly same, only discovered pink floyd a year ago and now can't even stop listening to them
You can always learn an instrument,guitar is easy.
It's funny because I was a huge Led Zeppelin AND Beatles fan from roughly age 13 to 18 (when most of my friends were fans of Nirvana, Soundgarden, Iron Maiden or even Sepultura), I became a Pink Floyd fan around 17 and then a Radiohead fan since the age of 18. But I've only realized a few months ago how much I still love Led Zep and "Led Zeppelin IV" is still one of my all time favorite albums (or maybe it's just that I'm going through a midlife crisis haha 😅)
@@brunobailly7013 sorry i didnt see this earlier. Thanks for your reply. The more you learn how to appreciate really great, complex, creative, innovative music the more your mind expands - wanting more, needing more, like food for your soul. Led Zeppelin, Radiohead, Tool, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, early progressive Genesis are true outliers in the music world. They are on a much higher level.
@@jennifersun2638 i bought a good ukulele when they were in vigue. Quickly found my carpal tunnel i had surgery on is prohibitive of playing. Piano maybe? 🙂🎹. Thanks
Kid A changed music for me. Before then I was just obsessed with classic and Indy rock. Still don’t think another band has made an album to touch it tbh. Crazy to think now how badly it was received by critics here in the UK at the time.
Yeah their existing UK fans wanted another guitary album.
Among the best in US tho, funny why their own country critic it so much 😂
Just is my favorite Radiohead song it’s amazing in every aspect!!
Hey Rick, you have REALLY been hitting your stride with how you compose your videos over the last year. Would you PLEASE revisit Radiohead? This is a good video, but I have NO doubt that today you could do SO much more to help explain why Radiohead is SUCH a great band. Thanks in advance, even if you never see this. I LOVE your channel.
We are so lucky to have Radiohead out there writing music. The breakdown of "Daydreaming" reminded of how they're light years beyond most other bands in terms of the chord structures and progressions they're using. I would love to hear an analysis of "Pyramid Song."
I was attending the American Academy of Art when OK came out.
Me and my art kid friends played it non stop for two years.
I also have been a fan since Pablo Honey. Best band in the world. I've seen them twice in concert and they were transcendent live. Just brilliant.
Radiohead. Best thing since The Beatles. More of their music please! Rick, you're the best.
Today we're going to be talking about Radiohead, and why they're so cool.
Best opening to a video ever!
I didn't begin to appreciate Radiohead until I heard In Rainbows. I immediately sought out every album and live performance available. I know some people that don't get them and once I did they quickly became one of my most listened to bands. Everything In It's Right Place, Exit Music (For A Film), All I Need and Pyramid Song are pure mastery for starters. Ramin Djawadi uses them most in the Westworld soundtrack covers for good reason.
Huge Radiohead fan here for years. Thanks for bringing to light the underrated ideas Radiohead put together in the early albums. When I started watching your videos, it felt very overwhelming hearing "that's an ____ played over ____"
But as time has passed I feel more and more aware of what you are talking about. Which is especially nice when talking Radiohead!
Cheers from Canada Rick!
everything in its right place (first track on Kid A) just feels so powerful. especially when you have headphones, the synths just feel overpowering. It has good sound design without losing harmonic complexity.
The opening to Kid A (Everything in its Right Place) given me chills EVERY time I hear it. If I'm on a late night flight, that's playing through my headphones as soon as I sit down. I absolutely love that album.
Glad he mentioned Just. It’s my favorite song from the first 2 records and it’s rarely mentioned.
You might enjoy the recent video from James Hargreaves Guitar: SOLVED! The Secret Words In Radiohead's 'Just' Video (& what they mean).
I’ve seen Radiohead a number of times and they’ve blow me away each time. I’m going with my wife to see Thom in March and I can’t wait.
As a metal and jazz fan I’d have to say Radiohead is just one of those bands that simply will never be replaced.
I feel Radiohead and Failure are just 2 of the most unique bands in music today.
Great video! 👍🏻
When the ugly moments are made beautiful I’m reminded of Radiohead
Hiya Rick . Thank you for this . I think you are so talented and a great teacher . I loved Kid A so much and the follow up, but I can’t listen to them anymore . It is so emotionally intense . I find it hard to listen to Radiohead for this reason , but oh my their music sounds so complex and difficult to play . They really must put everything into every gig . Thank you .
Thank for this! As a musician myself, I know lots of other musicians, ALL of whom are huge Radiohead fans. Wonderful to see your passion for this music! That's the thing about Radiohead: You can't merely *like* them. :-)
So glad you took a look at their piano-based stuff. The wild thing about Everything In Its Right Place though is that part of the performance is Ed capturing Thom's performance in electronic loops and replaying them, live, differently, every time. That is a crucial part of the band's ethic, there is no backup tape, it has to be real.
I know nothing about music theory, but I know what I like, and you described what I like in a most delightful way. I must reiterate the sentiment of other viewers who wish to see you give us something from In Rainbows.
I'm just a humble hand percussionist, and have absolutely NO idea of what Rick is talking about when it comes to scales, notes, tempos, etc., but I STILL enjoy how he dissects and describes the songs he does!
Hi Rick, do some "In Rainbows" in a future video please!
My favourite Radiohead album.
My favorite album
Juan Andrés That would be all I need..
i think you'd like Vox's video about this song
Jigsaw falling into place
When I played on Ok Computer I almost cryed after hearing Airbag. How amazing and moving their music is! Great coverage to Radiohead songs!!
Hey Rick, I saw Radiohead live on the OK Computer tour in '97. A musical highlight of my life.
Every Radiohead song you mentioned are my favorites
The Bends, to me, is the perfect album, start to finish. It's my music highlight of the 90's.
"Hail to the Thief" tends to get forgotten about, but it's one of my favorites of theirs. Arguably the best of the "Anti-Bush/Blair" albums that came out post-9/11.
Too right! I was just starting to become politically aware when that came out and it was instrumental!
It is so good. Few songs I've ever heard hit as hard as 2+2 = 5
I think a million people died. And it was all based on so called American intelligence. Then Afghanistan happened, I forgot about Syria where they carried a bombing mission of over 12 months with no progress.
But The Clash are the best political band. People forget about the call up and guns of Brixton.....
Both the Bends and OK Computer are desert island discs. So original and Johnny Greenwood is very underrated as a unique guitarist. Best music advice given by Thom . .paraphrasing of course but it was something along the line of "If you want to write original music, don't do covers"
The solo for Just is too sick
Man i really like your channel but this, this is amazing. And let down is one of the best radiohead songs, i had like 16,17 when i first knew them. Really changed my life. And i really like that you talk about this. thanks again rick you are changing people life's too. (sorry for the bad english)
Incredible technical and emotional analysis of Radiohead. Rick speaks the truth. Always.
And so f*cking fluent on his instruments. So far beyond "thinking" about the notes, chords and progressions. And into the feel.
Pablo Honey came out in 1993.

I can't find words to tell you how much I love your channel and the way you teach us the music you appreciate and why. You are priceless for me. You are precious for me and I thank you so much.
On Airbag, Thom in fact plays a guitar with the B string tuned up to A, meaning the two highest strings are ringing out open throughout most of the song.
This is verified by the fact that Thom is handed a different guitar every time he plays Airbag- the tuning is different to the standard tuning of his usual guitar.
Never knew this
tuned DOWN to a a

@Saint Cocaine A is also _higher_ than B.
Have an utterly swell and delightful day my good, friendly chap.

I was in a band called Push that was going to support Radiohead at the Plaza in Glasgow and possibly go onto their UK tour...95/96...I loved them; sadly their management cancelled the tour citing instruments stolen etc from US leg and new album etc....would have loved to have played on their bill and remember chatting with their sound engineer in the Barn at Oxford on the phone about along with their new material and how he'd actually listened to and enjoyed our EP release as a tiny indie band (I was amazed hehe had! !) and also remember that day I collected my preordered ok computer in 97 and just being amazed as we a group of us musos listened to it collectively the same day...great videos sir, inspiring and informative and acknowledging true creative talent and breaking it down without patronising....thank you!!
Subterranean Homesick Alien was the first time I heard a song and audibly yelled “woah” after the first chord change. Really cool stuff
Let down is one of my all time favourite songs ever, the way the vocals and song builds and climbs to the end... Wow.

dont worry my man, with the way you play your instruments you can call it what you want
You like Jules, im with you brah
same for me!!!!!!
The early Radiohead albums, Pablo Honey, The Bends and OK Computer are some of my faves. I listen to these albums when I'm on long haul flights, helps me zone out, relax and ignore the other annoying passengers. It's become essential in my coping mechanism on long flights to the point where I actually look forward to flights so I can can indulge. Radiohead are not the only ones, there are others too like early 70's Pink Ployd, who made equally beautiful and calming music.
My Radiohead timeline:
1998 - girlfriend bought me OKC because I loved paranoid Android. I hated it and it’s one of the only CDs I’ve ever taken back to the shop!
Some years later - I bought OKC and loved every second of it like a long lost brother
Even more years later - an old friend of mine asked me why I didn’t have The Bends. I said I didn’t know, bought it, and immediately loved every moment of it.
Conclusion - it took me waaay too long to get to appreciate Radiohead.
Great video, your channel is the only reason I go on UA-cam regularly. I was working at Virgin Megastore when OK Computer came out. Was life changing. Radiohead were like gods back then.
Planet Telex was my first experience with Radiohead. That's when I fell in love with The Bends and the band.
Daydreaming is such a beautiful song. I remember when the record came out and I listened to it, I was in Singapore then for summer vacation. It was the soundtrack of whole trip, exploring through Singapore. Every time I listen to Daydreaming and the whole of "A moon shaped pool" it feels as though I was there again. Amazing how great memories can easily be tied to beautiful music.
Now, every time I travel to a new place or explore a new country, even as simple as traveling to a city I've never been before. I pick out a few albums that I love, some new ones that I was trying to get on. So that when I listen to that music again, I will feel as if I was there.
Radiohead is a top-tier band for me too. They have an incredible amount of music that's just really strong, melodic and interesting. Some of it's not as immediate as other stuff but it tends to grow on me. Thom Yorke's solo stuff is worth keeping up with too. I don't like everything but his collaborations are often really good, and any song that's him and a piano has a chance of being great too. I put him and Radiohead up there with the best bands with the strongest discographies.
In returning to a lot of older great bands like Mercury Rev, The Shins, am now dissecting Ok Computer even if I was really late to the game with Radiohead, I'm ashamed to say. But maybe a slightly more distanced view from the hype also gave me different appreciation of just how incredible it is. The lp's depth affords one so many angles to view it from. The instrumentation, the complex, at times, quirky, chord progressions, Tom's lyrics, his brilliant, and memorably beautiful melodic lines as well as how much the band is such a cohesive and organic unit. There's numerous great works from all eras, and probably many I/you/we never heard, but as things like Abbey Road, Aladdinsane, Dark Side stand up perennially, so does OK Computer, really a landmark work.
Listening to Radiohead changed my life.

Of course, tremendous respect to all the brilliant music you discuss and play but I would like to take this moment to recognize you, Rick Beato as the real MVP. The capacity of knowledge as well as your memory and plain ole fashioned musicianship is truly astounding.
Protect your brain at all costs!
Radiohead is what you get when you put together five musical geniuses, give them free reign with no boundaries, and team them up with one of the most underrated producers of all time, Nigel Godrich (another genius).
Radiohead has been one of my principle theme song bands since probably elementary school, since my parents listened to them. I remember hearing the OK Computer album so young and seeing sunlight cast hazy down through car windows that were higher up than me after school or on car trips while I was in the back seat, and time just seemed to slow down cinematically whenever we went through their albums.
Love Radiohead, the great thing about them is that 99% of bands get more and more commercial as they get popular. Radiohead are almost the exact opposite, they got less and less commercial and more arty as their popularilty grew. Amazing group.
First of all...thanks Mr. Beato! I'm 52! I grew up with 80's music ( and i have great respect for the band/music of 60's and70's), I love/ adore band like Simple minds,U2,Cure,Depeche mode and many others from the 80's! Obviously I love Radiohead! I Think They are the best of the 90's and one of the best band ever! I Think "Paronoid android" , " In Rainbows", "The bends" are masterpieces! And Radiohead are also the reason why I love/adore Muse....Muse that for me are one the best band of the last 20 years and one of the best live band ever!! Thank you, grazie ancora Mr. Beato. Greetings from Italy, saluti dall'Italia!!
“Hey Thom what’s your favorite Radiodead song?”, without hesitation “how to disappear Completely “
I just found your channel today, Just is also my first song that made me fall into Radiohead til now! Great song that introduce me to the one of the greatest band on the galaxy!!
Radiohead is our Beatles, IMO. Amazing breakdowns here. I love hearing someone who really knows music analyzing interesting music. Next, Rick, “Pyramid Song”. :-)
That's my favourite song by Radiohead
Aww it's sooo good
Radiohead are our Pink Floyd

I love this video. My father, a tenor sax player who studied theory with some Berkelee guys, used to sit in front of the piano and similarly explain the chords and arrangements of Radiohead to me!
