(2001/06/20) MTV, full band

Radiohead interview. TRANSCRIPTION:

[@btul2569]

"good luck with kid a" lol

[@officialpierluk]

this line is really funny, and because kid a and amnesiac are my favorite albums they influence me a lot in my writings as i mix a lot of genres and experiment a lot with synthesisers so we'll see how it goes in the next few years :P

[@doesanythingbreathe]

PL le zèbre how’s it going

[@minsqueeno2]

0:27 I feel so bad for Colin here, this is me in most social situations lol

[@brightoneasterling9304]

guy: whats the story behind pyramid song? thom: *proceeds to explain the meaning of life

[@ItsMisterEp]

When the film score question came Jonny heart must've skipped a beat!

[@ThaAmjab]

"Good Luck with Kid A!" HAHAHA

[@bhavyakukkar]

The fact that fans calling Ok Computer a concept album terrifies Thom, terrifies me because I know albums that wear "concept album" on their sleeves yet are half as conceptually strong as Ok Computer

[@TheWidowsWeeds]

a perfect answer to "do you have any recollection as to the meaning behind the moods and lyrics of 'Amnesiac'?" would have been, "No."

[@leahwaters-katz761]

Im loving how Ed is so feisty

[@brendantaylor3570]

Ed is an Aries haha. Shows here.

[@ArmandoNetto]

[@patrickcrawford6392]

[@kwood9307]

[@Broomsticksandbananasplits]

I actually watched this in 2001 and had it recorded to a VCR tape. Watched it over and over. I was 22 when this came out.

[@frenchguitarguy1091]

Yeah I'm watching this in 2001

[@kaaru6891]

Clearly not you

[@Mrsteisag2]

Great answers Phil!

[@harperlee8516]

Johnny is so precious, i just want to hug him so badly..

[@davidmckelvey2601]

I know someone who looks exactly like Jonny.

[@brendantaylor3570]

The Greenwood's seem like intelligent folk. Must be an interesting family.

"Good luck with kid A" xD

[@genesmith3582]

love that the band, and Ed in particular, slammed that stupid ass GW/Nader question back in his face.

[@Londeton]

Good luck with Kid A!!!

[@griffinstopsign]

something deeper and scarier going on... damn

[@griffinstopsign]

"see that makes perfect sense!"

[@NoSuchThing99]

yeah so, I'm talking to Radiohead right now and I'm gonna act like this is the most boring day of my life.

[@colleencavanaugh5830]

Ed's answer to the Nader question is so based. incredible.

[@catalina5711]

ed is such a babe

[@kwood9307]

10:00 That's interesting what Thom said about Miles Davis, turning his back.. (I hope I caught everything he said) It reminds me of Adam Young of Owl City. He was So shy, esp. when he first started, that he'd occasionally turn his back to the audience briefly, while playing. He said, he'd never expected to be a singer, and was So shy, he didn't think he'd be able to perform in front of crowds. But, he found that, although he'd be terrified backstage, once he walked on and his music started playing, he could just get lost in it and kinda forget the audience was there. It's also interesting that my fave band's lead singers, (RH is #1) originally didn't want to or never planned on, being a singer. I think Thom is one of them. He just wanted to play electric guitar, originally. I'm sure we're all very grateful, he changed his mind!!

[@ajsmith4181]

This is great!!! Thank you

[@jordanestes1997]

Looked up the time is cyclical thing, trying to wrap my head around it. Still think time is linear but also has cycles, I don't see why it can't be both

[@val777gray]

the ground is flat but the earth is round, you're right to think its both but it is technically only one, really its just all a big circle so you dont have to worry about falling off the edge

[@jordanestes1997]

@@val777gray just because shit goes in circles, I don't see how that means that I'm not gonna die

[@syrup-]

Look up the concept of entropy. Discord & uncertainty relates to cyclicality in the most abstract way..

[@WickedLiquid]

Hi Phil

[@basicoptimalmouse]

Thom Yorke rips off The Pixies, Jeff Buckley, REM, and U2 and then whines about bands like Coldplay and Muse. Does my dude think he invented soft rock?

[@fmathsson4097]

He perfected it

[@asmusavlund3074]

He did Kid A. All those bands have never sounded like that album

[@life.9251]

He didnt whine he made a joke about Kid A...

[@genesmith3582]

just about every artist in history was influenced by other artists, Einstein. The fact that you think Radiohead pulled anything from U2 is funny too.

[@para4902]

LOL
