FORMED: 1989, Oxford, England Radiohead is widely regarded as one of the world's most important bands of today. While their debut was rather modest, they were shot to stardom after the success of "OK Computer" - a success that few probably would have expected or predicted when the five of them started playing together in the early 80s after meeting at Abingdon School in Oxford. Thom Yorke was the driving force of the band. He was singing in the punk band TNT, but asked the TNT bass player, Colin Greenwood, if he wanted to join him and guitar player Ed O'Brien in a new band. One year older Phil Selway started playing drums in the band. Colin's younger brother Jonny hung around them, bugging them, asking to join. Eventually, he was allowed to play with them, firs More...

It is by human hands and mouths the purest wimper of what is real in our hearts and minds. I've noticed that people who like Radiohead really like to face what is real and wrong with things, be them generally acceptable, tangible aspects of life or the tiniest crannies of yearning in our minds. When I listen to them (I can't tell you which album is best because that depends on where my life is at the time) it makes mere English my second language as I approach understanding and appreciating the subtle bits of life in the closest sense I have ever experienced. They are not just good musicians with amazing chord progressions, haunting melodies, and-to say the least-unworldly sound intricacies; their music and messages soak me with the passion to live a search for deeper truths and passions. Amazing by all standards | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song House Of Cards performed by Radiohead This is the first song i ever heard by radiohead a few months ago. Two months later i now listen to all radiohead albums on a daily basis. Thought i would just comment on how amazing this song is, and on Radiohead as a whole. Keep up the good work guys- you are an absoulte inspiration. on the verge of losing his love | Reviewer: cominfast ------ About the song My Iron Lung performed by Radiohead faith, could be name or a metaphor for the woman he loves, but she doesn't seem to be reciprocating the way yorke wnats her to!!!. hence he says 'driving me away", he's cynical to openly express his love for her, and he is constantly feeling the pain in this bloody situation. he still might go for other bitches, but this particular woman has to say yes, he would go back to her!! he doesn't want to let go too, for he feels he can wait forever, even if it is insanely late in his life Irony | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song My Iron Lung performed by Radiohead This song is pure irony. They wrote it about feeling drowned by the song Creep, about the feeling that it was the only thing keeping them afloat. I just saw them play a few weeks back, and they all look so contented when they play this song, probably because they have LONG ascended past the idea that they are one-hit wonders. Actually | Reviewer: mewster18 ------ About the song Creep performed by Radiohead The singer feels inferior to the girl, that in his love for her he sees her as unreal, perfection. She doesn't realise his feelings for her and leaves him behind, ignores him. He takes this as him being subhuman and says,"I wish I was special". What he really means is that he wishes he could be noticed or equal to her. Its like a geek and a jock, both inferior in there own ways without noticing their true beauty and purpose. As if they cannot see past the stereotypes and focus only on the negative. He loves her. She doesn't know. He feels like a creep. So he decides he wants to be like her, but he doesn't know how to or how to even give himself the chance to make it work. He is lost in depression and doesn't believe in himself. Because he doesn't himself the chance to make her see him he can only blame himself. He can never measure up. Even if he gets the girl he still sees himself with loathing and hatred. He doesn't believe that he is worthy, but doesn't know that until he learns to embrace himself he will never be able to work things out. I feel like this a lot. possible meaning of the song | Reviewer: Sean ------ About the song My Iron Lung performed by Radiohead Obviously the lyrics here are very deep but this is my interpretation of them: I think that this song kind of has a different meaning per verse. the first verse is a clear statement on a sort of atheism it seems like. Like religion is something that's nice for some, but it doesn't work for him. the rest,to me seems to be like an anti-"Smells Like Teen Spirit." It kind of is saying that teenage years are a waste of time. We go from being cute and innocent to old and cynical over the course of 5 years or so. No! | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Creep performed by Radiohead This song is all about anorexia in my eyes.. he loves a girl who is anorexic, and he starts to have thoughts that he wants to be like that too. he doesnt want to stop her, 'whatever makes you happy' x has a lot of meaning | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Creep performed by Radiohead this song means a lot to me its just a song yea its a depressing song cause I devoted this song to my gf she liked it and all but like a week ltr we broke up!! But I listen to this song all the time it connects to me like if it was a part of me!! Its a master in the making I sung this part to her : when ur here before couldnt look u in the eye your just like an angel your skin makes me cry you float like a feather in a beutiful world. every time I here this it ripps me from the inside agh I love this song I just miss her!! LOL finally... | Reviewer: elianaaa ------ About the song Creep performed by Radiohead "Guys, come on. It's just a song. Why does everything always have to have a deeper meaning? It's just a song. Enjoy the amazing vocals, the strong chords, and the emotion in every word. It doesn't need to be analyzed." I think that's what I was hoping to read after all!:):):) this is my final fit | Reviewer: anticitizen ------ About the song No Surprises performed by Radiohead I always thought this song, along with most in OK computer, was about escapism, struggling/embracing the dull & mediocre suburbia life. A dull unrewarding job, a pretty house with a pretty garden, all the stability with no alarms and no surprises, just routine. "My final fit" could be interpreted about suicide (or pondering it) but actually, and frighteningly, it could be about fully embracing this unrewarding life. Killing the last bit of humanity and becoming a pig in a cage on antibiotics? Obsessive Love | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Creep performed by Radiohead The song is simple really if you can pull it apart and put it back together. He is in love with a girl that he wants to be happy with, but something is telling him that he's not good enough for her. So, he resorts to beating himself up if it makes him stop loving her. The evidence isn't in the chords or the sound, it's the lyrics. "I wanna perfect body.. I want a perfect soul." and "You're so fucking special, I wish I was special" both have to do with him wanting her so badly to the point where he would change completely to get her. Then, he just stops and says he's a weirdo and a creep for wanting to change himself to have her. I looked at it from a social level, maybe she really was too good for him or her friends told him so. love | Reviewer: junyul ------ About the song Fake Plastic Trees performed by Radiohead Radiohead is talking about the fakeness of the surface life we live in: things such as growing a fake plant and doing plastic surgery. And he builds that up to talk about a love that seems great on the surface(i.e. holding hands, kissing, whatever couples do). But there always is this doubt whether this love is real. Whether underneathe this surface, there is actual love. And he is scared to find out and only end up bemoning that if he had been the perfect one for her, the there would have been no doubts. 10x Radiohead for their new album "In Rainbows" | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Last Flowers performed by Radiohead I like this song so much, is perfect to listen it in down moments, Radiohead is my favorite Band, these lads are great!!!, im from Mexico and i like their style really!!!, but the "Videotape" song is great too! wow | Reviewer: MJ ------ About the song Paranoid Android performed by Radiohead I'm not exacly a fan of Radiohead (ask me again in a year, haha) but I still think they are among the best bands ever. Since I first heard bands such as The manic street preachers and Radiohead, all modern music has become so.. bad. It seems like everything that is needed these days to climb the charts is to have a catchy tune. I already have these oppinions, and I'm only 14. kahlfsdhfaif | Reviewer: arp ------ About the song Creep performed by Radiohead the song is just saying that he likes this girl but she thinks he's a creep and weird.its not as complicated as everyone is making it out to be.and aimee he was probably just telling you about the song and he most likely didnt intend it to mean anything to anyone. To the oblivious tard below me | Reviewer: Andrew ------ About the song Exit Music (For a Film) performed by Radiohead This song is played during the end credits to the Baz Luhrmann film in '96 (Yes, the one with DiCaprio). Radiohead was commissioned by Luhrmann to write a song for the end of the movie, and this was what they came up with. It then appeared on the 1997 album, OK Computer (They're best album in my humble opinion). "Talk Show Host" by Radiohead is also featured in the beginning of the film. It's an excellent movie. Watch it sometime. Then go play "In Rainbows" because it's fraking amazing. Exit Music | Reviewer: Bobby ------ About the song CLIMBING UP THE WALLS performed by Radiohead A very great song almost my favorite but you really cant beat exit music for a movie when he screams "breath... keep breathing. dont lose your nerve. Breath...keep breathing." Its such a gloomy song but so brilliantly uplifting. I love how with any mood im going through I can listen to that song and feel stronger as a person than I did before listening to it. Absolutely by far Exit music is my favorite song. Eddie Kidd | Reviewer: blimft ------ About the song High and Dry performed by Radiohead I may be wrong, but i heard somewhere that the song is about Eddie Kidd, the British stunt rider, who emulated Evil Knevel, but with filmstar looks, great attitude, very brave. Bit of a National hero over here Came a cropper after bad accident, i believe braindamaged now. Heartbreaking. The words fit his story perfectly If anyone can confirm or deny that, i would be grateful... ps bends and ok computer should be played on repeat...beautiful songs The Greatest | Reviewer: Jake ------ About the song Jigsaw Falling Into Place performed by Radiohead To the guy who said he would probably burst into tears if he saw Radiohead live, despite being a man: I too am a man. haha. I saw Radiohead a couple of weeks ago, and I did burst into tears. Throughout the concert, there were 9 points where I was so overwhelmed that I got choked up. It was incredible. Really sad, but beautiful song | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Fake Plastic Trees performed by Radiohead I think this song is about how fake we all try to be, just so we can impress people. We all act as if we are simple and uncomplicated, but in reality we're so fucked up it scares us shitless. And there's no point to it at all. Also how other people try to control others so they don't feel so strange, or something like that. This song is one of my all time favorites. It's so beautiful and true.
