I don't like it either.

I should stop watching interviews with him now seriously, they are so depressing. I mean, really really depressing and I can't even totally explain why (or I'd rather not.)

When I watch or read interviews with musicians/bands that I really adore, I always do it with a deep sense of unease... or even fear they might say something upsetting or disturbing...

That's why I've always preferred to concentrate on the music itself and my own perception of it...
I don't want to see it through their eyes, even if it was them who created it
It's like my own parallel universe and I don't want to have it destroyed by some highly unwelcome comments or remarks concerning it

Kid A is one of my fave albums (I mean by any band), and if there is something disturbing about what he says about it in that interview, I don't think I want to hear it...

Thanks for the interview. I'll watch it later because I have to go to get my father's post.

I've never actually told anyone. But since I watched this Fast Forward interview with Thom Yorke, I... I realized that everything he says makes sense. Even if you don't agree with him. It just makes sense. laugh.gif And I must say... I have never felt like that about any person before. Which is really... impressive, given that I, as everyone else, have listened to numerous people in my life. laugh.gif And then...

Ah, I think you know what I mean.

The same goes for the music. Actually just the Eraser.

Wait... I think I have to listen to him. Because I have read a few interviews, 3 or 4... laugh.gif And there... You just don't know about everything he has said. In interviews things get cut. (Well, not in the UNCUT. rolleyes.gif laugh.gif Haha.)

But if you hear... the whole capacity blink.gif (can you say that) of what he actually says...

it is...

The point I am trying to get at (ah, I am so into it now, I could go on for ages, like Chris Martin pretending to play piano. laugh.gif Well, in this one radio interview, on youtube you can find it, just ask Lea) is that... Rhetorical skills... The man has got them. If even I get what he is talking about... Then that means a lot. laugh.gif

"The less you know about an instrument, the more you get excited about it." happy.gif True... Haha, I love playing guitar when I can just mess around. I tried to play Street Spirit again today. I actually worked out the No Surprises riff yesterday... laugh.gif And it's not as fun as just messing around. Although it fits in between the messing around bits neatly. laugh.gif

"It's got the same "Fuck me" attitude if it's good."

laugh.gif Thom on electronical music and rock music.

I find it really interesting that he doesn't like the concept of rock music. Because... It just makes sense that he doesn't like it. "Tour ourselves stupid" and all that... That just seems like him. You know... unsure.gif
Thomhatesmusic
I told you I was at this girl's house today and she's basicly into rnb and hiphop and african music but we listened to music on my Zen a bit and she said You and Whose Army really made her all sleepy. I don't even know why I thought that was funny but it was. We actually both got really sleepy...

The weird thing is: I somehow feel bad for caring about him and what he says so much. It's like the same feeling you get when you like someone but you know they don't like you and basicly you just want to forget about it all.
Colin_is_a_Phillover
Yeah... I agree with you, except for the last bit of the sentence.

I don't actually want to forget about it all. For me it's like that with liking the music. Sometimes I feel like... Like... It's too hard for me to understand. laugh.gif No, really...

unsure.gif

And... As I can really understand him, it's really great that... someone like that (I hope I don't get too emotional... mellow.gif Because I don't want to... I just want to finsih this post.) is out there. dry.gif These three words sound absolutely cheesy.

Wait... I've read the second part of your post again... Yeah... Yeah... I actually agree with you. laugh.gif Completely. I was just being stupid. I guess I haven't read your post properly.

Ah, now I lost my thread of thought. laugh.gif I have to get back to it...

Erm... Liking someone, but the person doesn't like you... Er...

"Remain In Light" is a cool title, by the way. And I think I might buy it, just to know what it sounds like. laugh.gif

Oh yeah, it's like me... Today I was thinking about it again.

It is kind of pathetic... It's... You might think I was trying to "imitate" Thom Yorke... But it's not like that.

I guess it is just the way he put it... He actually didn't put it... It is this animated video for 2+2=5 and... the song itself...

And...

I wonder whether I should become vegeterian... But... I don't know. I would have found it weird just about half a year ago, but now... It makes much more sense to me.

I am wondering why. unsure.gif

laugh.gif Anyhow, I got off-topic.

Oh yeah!!! I got back. Er...

The thing about Thom Yorke not liking me is... I have never met him (rolleyes.gif I guess you wouldn't have thought THAT) and... I just think that... I don't even think about it that much, I don't want to. laugh.gif The reason why I didn't... No... I didn't not like him. laugh.gif It was just that I didn't get his point.

The whole point about his personality and... Radiohead's music...

Wait, that is interesting now...

Why did I start listening to Radiohead?

Well, it is because I started this whole thing about starting to listen to bands who I have the most prejudices... against... about... for? laugh.gif Ah, who needs a preposition?!

And so... I started with... The Who... Then it was Led Zeppelin... Bright Eyes a bit because I was listening to "True Blue" laugh.gif which didn't seem like a "typical" Bright Eyes song to me...

And then... I asked you, Ihatemusic (No, I don't wanna marry you... laugh.gif ) for the worst Radiohead album you have. So... You gave me Pablo Honey.

Haha, I even listened to it more often than you did, which I still find amusing...

But you knew the songs way before you bought the album anyway... laugh.gif

So... Erm, the Iron Lung EP, then OK Computer... Hail To The Thief was after that, I think. laugh.gif Then Amnesiac and Kid A... Finally the I MIGHT BE WRONG live recordings...

And... I think it was in November, when I was listening to Hail To Thief on my laptop that...

I started to get them...

I am still getting them. It's a looong process. I guess you knew that...

Oh, erm...

I compared Thom to Bono today... And I figured out for myself that the difference between them is... Thom criticizes everything, other people, the world and himself. And Bono... He doesn't seem to criticize himself. At least not in public.

I guess that is why you say that he says he does so much great stuff all the time...

"I saw the Zeffirelli version when I was 13 and I cried my eyes out, because I couldn't understand why the morning after they shagged they didn't just run away. The song is written for two people who should run away before all the bad stuff starts. A personal song". Thom Yorke about Exit Song (for a film) and William Shakespear's Romeo and Juliet

"Being in a band turns you into a child and keeps you there". - Thom Yorke

"It's a fine line between writing something with genuine emotional impact and turning into little idiots feeling sorry for ourselves and playing stadium rock". - Thom Yorke

"He's very quiet. He can get tense very quickly. He's moody and childish and aloof but he can also be very affectionate and friendly". - Jonny Greenwood (Radiohead guitarist) about Thom Yorke

"Karma is an important idea. I like it. It makes me nicer to people. It fills me with joy. This song makes me laugh. It was Ed's idea". - Thom Yorke about Karma Police<

"'Paranoid Android' is full of images of people that I saw in a pub the night before we went to the studio. Most lyrics on 'OK Computer' are actually polaroids inside my head". - Thom Yorke about Paranoid Android

"'Street Spirit' is our purest song, but I didn't write it.... It wrote itself. We were just its messengers... Its biological catylysts. It's core is a complete mystery to me... and (pause) you know, I wouldn't ever try to write something that hopeless... All of our saddest songs have somewhere in them at least a glimmer of resolve... 'Street Spirit' has no resolve... It is the dark tunnel without the light at the end. It represents all tragic emotion that is so hurtful that the sound of that melody is its only definition. We all have a way of dealing with that song... It's called detachment... Especially me.. I detach my emotional radar from that song, or I couldn't play it... I'd crack. I'd break down on stage.. that's why its lyrics are just a bunch of mini-stories or visual images as opposed to a cohesive explanation of its meaning... I used images set to the music that I thought would convey the emotional entirety of the lyric and music working together... That's what's meant by 'all these things are one to swallow whole'.. I meant the emotional entirety, because I didn't have it in me to articulate the emotion... (pause) I'd crack.... Our fans are braver than I to let that song penetrate them, or maybe they don't realize what they're listening to.. They don't realize that 'Street Spirit' is about staring the fucking devil right in the eyes... and knowing, no matter what the hell you do, he'll get the last laugh...and it's real...and true. The devil really will get the last laugh in all cases without exception, and if I let myself think about that to long, I'd crack. I can't believe we have fans that can deal emotionally with that song... That's why I'm convinced that they don't know what it's about. It's why we play it towards the end of our sets. It drains me, and it shakes me, and hurts like hell everytime I play it, looking out at thousands of people cheering and smiling, oblivious to the tragedy of it's meaning, like when you're going to have your dog put down and it's wagging it's tail on the way there. That's what they all look like, and it breaks my heart.

I wish that song hadn't picked us as its catalysts, and so I don't claim it. It asks too much. (very long pause). I didn't write that song". - Thom Yorke about Street Spirit>

We all have a way of dealing with that song... It's called detachment... Especially me.. I detach my emotional radar from that song, or I couldn't play it... I'd crack.

Now I've got... "Cut Off" in my head.

Haha, I also understoog monkey, by the way. "Had the monkey, held the key" or "Hell" or whatever laugh.gif.

"Solar system" and so on... "Convicts".

laugh.gif I actually wanted to say something about "Street Spirit", but never mind.

Er, what I wanted to say... laugh.gif

The thing about his fans, Radiohead's fans, not knowing about the meaning of the song... I find that interesting. Really interesting.

Because I obviously *rolleyes* didn't know it and because I didn't understand it and because I didn't understand it, given that I didn't understand it.

Erm... Now I have already lost this... my reaction to what he said. This feeling...

But... You, Lea... You have said that you feel like a bad person when you are reading/watching/listening to Thom Yorke interviews.

And I... I, well... I don't feel like a bad person because of that, I already feel like a bad person... So, erm... I feel...

I feel with him (if you can say that), I can, in most cases, completely understand what he is talking about and...

Well...

He... makes me see all bad in this world (and others as well) and... I dunno. It doesn't hurt me or haunt me. I don't even think that it makes me feel bad.

It just is... the truth.

The unbelievable truth. *rolleyes* Yeah... Haha. Stupid joke...

And...

I have to get all this into one post because the internet is so slow today, so I have to wait for five minutes for EVERY page on this message board to appear... come up... build up.

And back to street spirit: I don't even want to listen to it again because I will either realize what he was talking about or because I won't get it again or because...

Anyway...

I'll just go away. The internet pisses me off anyway. I'll just go and do my homework. So it's good that the internet is so slow today...

Erm...

Bye. Here are four pics which I found on atease an hour ago... Hope you enjoy them...

Argh. Thom Yorke. Just...

I shouldn't have read the longer comment on "Street Spirit" because... Now I actually feel bad because I am thinking of listening to it again...

Maybe I can listen to it again in a few days. Or not.

Dammit, why does he always have to be so awfully harsh and realistic. He doesn't even want to be like that. But we all can't change our innermost selves, so I should shut up.

But it's Thom Yorke.

C'mon... This is too much.

"That's not good enough, that's not good enough." Well, thank you. I'll just go and do my homework, although I don't know what for, I don't know why I do anything... Just...

I just do it and go to bed and... I am continuing my cheesecake and... I'll do a bit of other silly stuff.

Silly glittery stuff.

And I still have to do my homework for three subjects and I have five books for my Physics presentation and I have to have at least a look at each of them.

So, see you. Bye bye.

Awwwww, Thom, Colin, Jonny...

Phil, Ed.

The comment really distracts me, although Ihatemusic has already told me about it... But it wasn't the exact words and now I am completely confused.

Just, aaahhh... No...

I don't think that I understand any song, so... I'll just go...

I don't know whether I understand anything, as pathetic as that may sound.

But... I just have to think of Politics in school. Ha ha.

Ha.

Ha ha ha.

Yeah, I'll buy myself How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb soon and then I'll be a U2 fan and I'll love Bono and spam the whole forum with pictures of him. And I'll spam atease. And coldplaying.

Shame, the Who forum I went to isn't there any longer. Or it seems to me that it does.

So, bye.

P.S.: The Adam Clayton band!

Or... Martin, Gallagher and Buckland!

Or... Thom Yorke loves guitarists with long black hair if they have a big brother and are called Jonny.

The last band name is the coolest. *loooool*

Now it's all clear

I've always wondered why it is that whenever I listen to that song
I just want to curl up and die...
