OK Computer should definitely be the next RH record you react to. It's easily one of the greatest records ever made.
I'd definitely recommend doing OK Computer and Kid A right after to understand what we as fans at the time went through. It's quite a trip.
What he said
Yes, I personally consider A Moon Shaped Pool as one of their strongest albums too
I totally agree and recommend checking out other albums. Definitely 1 of THE most diverse and evolved bands of all time (TOOL & Pink Floyd being the other top 2 of 3)
Videotape is one of my faves. The videotape rewind beat is exceptional.
De-loused in the Comatorium next? lol 😉
Life changing to discover Radiohead and TOOL.
Okay, you're done with In Rainbows, so OK Computer? 🤞
That moment when he gets to the midway point in Paranoid Android...😱
Please don't leave us Radiohead's hanging too long!
The Daily Mail live from the basement would be a perfect performance for you to react to!
Would definitely love seeing your reaction to more Radiohead stuff. They have such a huge amount of interesting and amazing music, it would be a shame to stop at In Rainbows!
I've been waiting for this reaction for a long time! Thanks for the journey!
The imperfections in the beats and tempo makes this inexplicably perfect
You gotta do Kid A next man
Been a fun ride! See you From The Basement!
In that outtro, they added a broad wash sound to the live "Basement" version
There is a 2nd disk to this album full of songs that are just as good
A moon shaped pool...
I enjoyed your reaction to my second favorite album of all time. Please do Kid A next 🙏🏼
If you like the dreamy vocals and mysterious vibe i strongly recomend you listen to 'Go Slowly'. Its a beautiful song but it somehow landed on the b side of In Rainbows even when Jonny (guitar player) begged Thom (singer) to include it on the main album.
Btw, what sort of music/bands do you like the most?
You should do a stoned reaction to Kid A. Someone recommended that in another video and I think it would be a cool experience. Super glad you liked In Rainbows. I think it's a pretty great entry point to get into Radiohead. Looking forward to your next reaction!
a simple 4/4 beat...?.....*laughs in rhymic illusion
im surprised you havent come back to radiohead reactions yet. you should definitely keep it going!! :)
Looking forward to the live..
stay safe friend.
You may already know them but if not, I reckon you'd love Oceansize. They have crazy time signatures and weirdness like Tool mixed with a load of beautiful guitars and melodies like Radiohead. They're not really like either of those bands but if you like both of them, I reckon you'd like Oceansize. Check out "Drag the 'Nal / Dead Dogs an' All Sorts / As the Smoke Clears" (3 songs but they go together as 1 - it's 1 video on UA-cam), "Trail of Fire", "Unfamiliar" and "Music for a Nurse" are great. They've got loads of amazing songs. Probably not popular enough for a reaction video but I'd definitely check them out.
Always like a Oceansize recommendation.
Yes! I’m so glad there’s people who are still listening to them in 2021! One of the most creative rock bands of the past 2 decades.
If you haven't already, check out Vox's video "the secret rhythm behind Radiohead's videotape" that explains the audio illusion the band is doing with this song, why this version is different than the live at bonnaroo version, and why this Thom Yorke's personal favorite is hard to play live because the audience is usually messing with the band.
you have drums in the background so i assume you'll understand a fun fact about the song, the piano is syncopated and lands on beat 2, beat 1 is silent for most of the song, the drum machine thingy marks the beat 1
I really hope you do more radiohead!
Really hope you return to UA-cam and do more albums from them! Miss your reactions quite a bit my dude.
still have a hard time wrapping my head around the syncopated beat
It’s syncopated, but perfectly in sync with the piano and his vocals, though.
Especially cause the beat is really upbeat.The piano lands on the "and" before the 1st and 3rd beat, so the hidden beat is twice faster than the piano feel
i don't if i'm just listening and paying attention to it but whenever i play it and sing on top it becomes really hard
Check out the scotch mist version
Dude you have to listen to the 2006 Bonnaroo live performance of this song it goes a lot heavier and is more full I think you’d definitely get a kick out of it
I think King of Limbs should be next... but do the "From the Basement" performance. You'll dig the double drummer aspect.
I nearly killed myself to this song but tbh music reminded it was good to be alive
This album review was awesome, thank you! I have a suggestion. If & when you get to Kid A (album), I suggest you do continuous full listen reaction of the album & then splice up the videos into individual “reactions” & upload at your pace. This album is best heard continuously. By the end of the 4th track, you should feel overwhelmed. I would even much rather if you’d listen to it on you own completely focused without the pressure of forming a review…it’s that special IMO.
Congratulations!! You made it through one of my favorite records. You should check out “Moon Shaped Pool” from Radiohead. And if your looking for something is try Tame Impalas “Currents”!
This version is amazing, but I also love the live basement version. If you liked this you should check it out even if just for yourself.
More radioead albums
All Radiohead albums are great, but this album just consistently hits a chord in my soul. I'm not gonna say it's my favorite, but it's the definitely the most played
I think you'd really enjoy Pineapple Thief In Exile or The Final Thing on my Mind. Beautiful tracks. Gavin Harrison the former King Crimson and Porcupine Tree drummer joined on this album in 2016.
I believe lyrically the song is about someone dying and making a videotape for the person they love. This is what makes Radiohead so cool though - you have this complex warm instrumentation, with a really eerie sound to it at the same time (much like Yorke’s voice), and then his lyricism is the cherry on top. Much like tool tbh, they all bring something different to the table to make a very unique sound.
Coincidentally, that's actually what the song is about, more or less. It's basically Thom saying to his family, friends, and maybe even his fans, not be sad when he passes because we'll still have the memories, photos, and videos of him.
If you're into it check out videotape from the basement sessions
When I'm at the pearly gates
This'll be on my videotape, my videotape
Mephistopheles is just beneath
And he's reaching up to grab me
This is one for the good days
And I have it all here
In red, blue, green
Red, blue, green
You are my centre
When I spin away
Out of control on videotape
On videotape
On videotape
On videotape
On videotape
This is my way of saying goodbye
'Cause I can't do it face to face
I'm talking to you before
No matter what happens now
You shouldn't be afraid
Because I know today has been
The most perfect day I've ever seen
Would love to see a full Porcupine Tree or Steven Wilson album react. I think you'd enjoy.
Perhaps when you're caught up with Tool (or before) You could experience Porcupine Tree - Anesthetize 🤘
React to The Bends
can you react to the strokes "The new abnormal" its an album that won a grammy this year :D
Good on the record, but prefer the live versions of this song, not the earlier, fast Bonaroo version from 2006, but the versions on the In Rainbows tour and after. Saitama and From The Basement specifically.
All I Need, Reckoner, House of Cards top 3
Please do OK Computer
Best album ever, simple as that. Go for A moon shaped pool next. Really you can't go wrong. just don't do Pablo Honey, just yet ;)
This is the "from the basement" version, I'd recommend you check this out ua-cam.com/video/BTsH6jcyJgw/v-deo.html
Came here to say the same as others, when you investigate whats actually happening in this song it'll blow your mind.
(Also the Hammersmith/Boston/Bonnaroo versions of this song are fantastic and each subtely different to each other)
its stripped down and off time
STONED reaction to Ok Computer and Kid A
Don't get me wrong, I love Radiohead but is anyone else just waiting for the 7empest reaction lol?
I feel like you've already got quite a big forehead but your hair makes it look significantly larger than it really is
