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.
Lol they evolved their sound, that's not pretentious. That's what makes them a great band, the ability to evolve your sound and take what you previously had and improve on it.

@@valentinzelenco7770 Me too lol
you are insane
r/radioheadcirclejerk brought me here
This songs chorus piece is really cool because its literally going "forwards" then it goes "backwards"
Awesome work and proves why Johnny Greenwood is one of the best guitarists since the 70s.
+Philip Yates You misspelt "of all time"
Philip Yates I also think he really came into his own in the 1970s!
FUCKING LOVE IT. Im a massive life long radiohead fan and dont like a lot of covers but u were wailing on that thing. Im down on one knee sir. Bravo.

YEAAAAAAH KID! That was fuckin awesome!!! Congratulations!
Crazy good to copy something as idiosyncratic and illogical as Jonny’s playing on this one
The playing in this song is pretty standard guitar playing, compared to other greenwood parts
Awesome
That is fucking impressive

I don't know why radiohead don't do more songs like this. They became so pretentious after the Bends.
This was after the bends
@@haich_9085
Yeah I know. Thy still made some good songs after The Bends but not any good albums.
dan ohyeah what about ok computer
Lol they evolved their sound, that's not pretentious. That's what makes them a great band, the ability to evolve your sound and take what you previously had and improve on it.
