How come I end up where I started?
How come I end up where I went wrong?
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
You reel me out, then you cut the string
How come I end up where I started?
How come I end up where I went wrong?
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
First you reel me out and then you cut the string
You used to be alright
What happened?
Did the cat get your tongue?
Did your string come undone?
One by one
One by one
It comes to us all
It's as soft as your pillow
You used to be alright
What happened?
Et cetera, et cetera
Fads for whatever
15 steps, then a sheer drop

Good Tune! But, not their best.

Bravo! I truly appreciate your comment. My faves tend to get a lot of grief. On the other hand when I hear tunes that aren't my cup O' tea, I prefer not to crap on other peoples taste. We're all here for the same thing and different things simultaneously. But it's great when someone, like you, can still post positivity and show respect for your fellow listeners.
Very well stated!!

But then I would be extremely disappointed if RP with its eclectic music mandate and historical range did NOT play lots of music by both these bands. The talent is obvious; the positive critical reception and enthusiastic following are well known.
And FWIW, I never use the PSD function. I want the DJ to play stuff that stretches me and that means the odd song that annoys me.
Lord knows, some of my favourite music irritates others, profoundly.
Well said Westslope!

I know Thom York took Radiohead off at a tangent after OK Computer, but depending on your mood, they can still arouse feelings deep in your musical soul that so many bands simply cannot do. The later stuff reminds me of Talk Talk. Can't tell you why exactly, just does. I guess they both pushed the boundaries a bit, and that's never a bad thing.

I heard a sewer worker say that just a few days ago - apparently he didn't like the smell of chicken korma.

Radiohead would be far better with a decent singer. Good otherwise.

Bizarre mix of love it and hate it. Drum 'n' bass percussion not too pleasant to my ear.

Haters will hate, but its the ratings that (mostly) dictate the tunes played here by Bill. Apart from a few notable exceptions, songs that have a low rating are usually culled from playlists.
But how marvellous that this challenging and excellent piece is played here. Hurrah!
Amazing amount of negative comments for a song with an average rating of 7.5, which I guess would be Most Likeable? I guess we Radiohead fans don't need to defend Thom and the boys.
Sure had me chair-dancing like a maniac at the computer... solid solid 9!

OUCH! It hurts to rip off my earphones that fast! PSD is just too slow sometimes.
Canned Heat without the groove- really awful music
But mostly, really, what makes this SUCK is Yorke's so-called voice. 
Had an amazing experience with this in Amsterdam last week. 2 drummers and at least 15,000 bouncing, stomping steps!

Bleh. Hm, maybe a decent drum track, that could fit under a hundred other arrangements, but most of this is just hookless, minimalist noodling. Ooo look, layers of found sound - Beck did it better 20 years ago. And then, ahem, but Yorke's voice is one of the most grating sounds in the musical universe.

Where I come from, this is what we call hitting below the belt. Allow other people their opinions. We don't need a Taliban mentality when it comes to matters of taste.

Okay I have figured out what it is about these guys that drive me to the mute button, the lead singers voice just is grating on my nerves.
Musically they are good and unique it is just York's voice that is terrible. I guess it could be worse, it could be autotuned.

It isn't like they didn't make enough money off it the first time, and I highly doubt that you will ever see American Idol on DVD. At least I hope not, watching that show once is bad enough...
Whoa! Thanks people who posted the You Tube video of 2009 Grammys — I missed that the first time around. Very cool! Now it makes me want to see Tusk — maybe there's a video for that too? My recent favorite was when James Durbin on American Idol performed Muse-Uprising with a marching band (well not a whole band).

Now I remember why this album was free and I still haven't listened to it in ages. Must we have the ping pong table back in the recording studio. I know other people liked it on OK computer but really? Somewhere buried under a mountain of crap I kind of suspect there may be a half way decent song but I can't drown out the rest of the annoying noise to hear it.

Ah yes, the marching band days. 4/4 was easy as most music is written in 4/4. 3/4 was a bit of a challenge.
Of course, I was a percussionist, so there is an argument that was frequently made that we didn't march at all, just walking around the field with heavy drums on.

WOW this actually sounds CLEVER!!!!!! Bit of a throwback to Pablo Honey with all the guitars..

Zeppelin may be amazing. Zeppelin may have been around first. But Radiohead to some - including myself - are absolutely brilliant. This track is no exception.

Just because it's Radiohead doesn't mean this is an automatic 10. In fact, I'm shocked this has more 10's than say a rarer Led Zep track played here.
7 at best for me, what's so special about this track?

Yes Stingray, you are viewing, so you stay very "best in photography" to make comments on this record. (Now, whenever you are angry with you girlfriend, hypothetical, you come here to release your frustration, hate to write in red ink, so there)
Hello RP-Listeners!
I wish all of you "MERRY CHRISTMAS",
wherever you are - whoever you wanna be!
Christmas is a sweet-naive tradition -
not a religious event!
I like it anyway!
Still - I hope Bill takes the chance
to rock the christmas-tree to pieces tonight!
"Happy Christmas
your "BAD SANTA",
aka STINGRAY
-from Cologne/Germany-
PS
Sermon of the day (promise: I'm serious):
The "Three Wise Men" - Melchior, Balthasar + Caspar
are buried in a golden sarcophage in"our" dome, the famous
"Cologne dome" - the third highest church-building
in the world - right in the very centre of town, next to the Rhine.
A gothic building of extra-class!

The British Paul Auster's of music!

I think I like the Grammy live version better than the CD. Not too bad either way. Nice pairing with Elvis Costello Bill ;-)
This is a great track & was brilliant when I saw them live
