You should definitely react to the From The Basement versions of these songs! It’s a bunch of In Rainbows songs, but performed by Radiohead live in the basement of a recording studio. The Nude and Weird Fishes versions from there are heavenly.

[@eazy-e8085]

Vouch^

[@gameofadages6847]

The simplicity of Nude’s lyrics. “Now that you feel it…you don’t.” Guts me every time

[@joemahoney7870]

‘You’ll go to hell for what your dirty mind is thinking’ is one of my all time favourites

[@garethcampbell8415]

I love how in this album especially, the singer (Thom Yorke) uses his voice as an instrument instead of just a way to get words across.

[@nachobusinezzreacts]

YES DUDE! I realized that when I started listening to them and it is amazing that they do this! I’ve never heard other bands do this and it really opens up your mind to how they see music. Really really cool stuff from them that makes them UNIQUE!

[@gavinoleary4550]

If you want to see them live you’ve got to do this album from the basement 😊

[@nachobusinezzreacts]

Someone else said this to me as well and I’m definitely gonna check it out now that two people have recommended it! Thank you so much for your support, I truly appreciate it! Hope you were able to enjoy the video! 😁💪

@@nachobusinezzreactswon’t be disappointed

[@d_man_69]

Seriously do watch them play live from the basement...it humbled me

[@dannya8614]

BBC's Live From the Basement is arguably even better than the studio album. You get to see and listen how talented Radiohead is live when they are in their comfort zone.

[@the_oslovian]

Yes!!! Best live clip ever!

[@JMoney_TheGangster]

The beginning of Nude is actually the end of the song, but reversed. Except for the drums, they aren't reversed. Kid A's next. It's the album that comes after OK Computer. There's a reason it's called the "Greatest Left Turn In Music History". Also, Thom Yorke (The singer) is the one who likes Billie Ellish. I hope I spelt her name right. Oh and you gotta check our their From The Basement sessions. It's absolutely bonkers.

[@nachobusinezzreacts]

OMG I DIDNT EVEN CATCH THAT THE ENDING OF NUDE IS THE END! That’s a pretty cool way to end the song! You see, it’s little details like that one that make me appreciate the band much much more. Kid A is for sure next, so stay tuned for that! And thom Yorke and Billie have very similar styles when it comes to singing. Ofc 2 different genres but very similar singing styles! I absolutely loved that. And you did spell her name right lol. And I’ll be more than glad to check on those basement sessions, it sounds really interesting. Once again dude, thank you so much for your support! 😁💪

[@kimbervoss3753]

Enjoying your reaction so far..and don't worry about doing what you have to to avoid copyright strikes. I'd much rather hear someone talk over the songs I've heard a million times and pause briefly a couple of times than listen to a reactor that skips parts or omits most of the song. "Nude" is arguably my favorite RH song. The strings are like melting butter on my brain..lol The bridge and breakdown before the climax in "All I Need" is one of my favorite pieces of music ever written.. Looking forward to part 2!!

[@SnerMerNer]

When you finally get around to Kid A, the best thing you can do is toss all preconceived notions out the window and go in with a completely open mind. Such a damn good album. Kid A and Amnesiac are a bit weird but they're among my favorite albums of all time.

[@voiceover2191]

Kid A and Amnesiac both take time for most people to really appreciate. I personally love both and it took some time even though I love the experimental nature and bravery of either one. I must admit though on an album level, nothing comes close for me like In Rainbows, every single song perfection.

[@cleeshay]

You will definitely love their Live From the Basement stuff.

[@summerxoxoxo]

i looove that you keep the whole songs in your reactions. im so hype

[@nachobusinezzreacts]

Thank you so much dude! I try to make it as easy as possible for you guys to be able to watch. Hope you enjoyed the video!😁🫶

[@garethcampbell8415]

If you want a harder, more rock Radiohead, listen to the album The Bends. It’s very arena rock-sequel, and has some obvious hard rock influences which are seen especially in the song The Bends.

[@cleeshay]

Gotta think that you'll love Hail To The Thief as well.

[@skillbomb8823]

Idk if you know this or not, but Apple Music has lyrics for these songs. It’s the button to the right of the volume bar - looks like a speech bubble with 2 apostrophes in it

[@TB_2006]

I would love to see your reaction to Loveless by My Bloody Valentine. It has that feeling of taking you to another dimension with the amount of different sounds they use. I also wouldn't worry about the lyrics for that album. It's one of my favorite album ever, and I've listened to it dozens of times, but there's only about 2 or 3 lines in the whole album that I actually understand. I also think Spiderland by Slint would make another great reaction. It's sort of the opposite of Loveless, because it uses more stripped-back instrumentation, and the lyrics are one of the most important aspects of the album. Both albums are among my favorites.

[@dreww1609]

You def have a unique and refreshing take on reactions, straight from your thoughts, and that's a good thing. You can get close to that live experience you mentioned by watching their most legendary concert if not moment period, "In Rainbows: Live From the Basement" where you see just the 5 band members recreate this sound - it is mind blowing and so cool - once you finish it up it is beyond worth it to connect to the band in a badass way. To me, "OK Computer" is their all time greatest album, "In Rainbows" the most beautiful and them at just near flawless top of their game levels, and "Kid A" is their "Dark Side of the Moon" (though while your reference to undertones to Pink Floyd is one I agree with, THAT album is nothing like Dark Side sonically) - it is more it is their most experimental and at times challenging, but - it is just a straight up piece of Art as music, like almost nothing you'll have ever heard or may ever hear again. So, awesome takes, enjoying it, keeping it real, and sharing what's up to people like me who have been captivated by these 5 dudes (not that way, ha, which is fine, don't get me wrong, but...yeah, I'll stop now) - their music and again once you see them in a studio live playing this stuff and it sounds even BETTER you get sucked in even more. That is From the Basement - it is mesmerizing to watch the same 5 guys who've been playing together since 1986 still together (kinda rare in Rock historically) do their magic up close and how there are very few tricks - they are a 3 guitar attack band, at their core, and even when going into truly wild territory with Kid A, that core and boldness to constantly strive for a new sound every album is why they have the following they do and create music you can happily settle in and have with you for the rest of your life. I am seeing a side project which is "The Smile" - Thom Yorke the singer and rhythm guitarist/pianist etc, and Lead guitarist Jonny Greenwood - so Radiohead with 3 members sitting out - in 2 weeks and I will be in the first couple rows up at that stage and soak it all in man. And oh yeah man, hit you up with a Sub, saw it at 997, so can't lie, would be lit to be #1000, but trying to help the last push. Great vid! Peace//

[@enygma7725]

Congrats for the 1k Nacho!! And good job on the video :)

[@o5liviate]

i really think you like it better, if you listen to this album a few times. it's just very experimental... radiohead is an unusual band. before i started listening to them, I didn't know that i liked this kind of music, but the sound is sooo fascinating

[@o5liviate]

don't worry if you don't like something, we're here for your honest opinion and sincere emotions 💗

[@nachobusinezzreacts]

Hey Anna! Just commented on your other comment, but I wanted to comment on this too😁 Radiohead is SUCH an unusual band. I definitely have to go back and listen to them again because it takes me a couple of listens to get used to it just like MCR because it is such a different kind of music. It’s nothing I’ve ever heard so it’s complete new waters. I wouldn’t say I didn’t like it, bc I did like some, I would just say that I need to expand my music taste a little bit more lol. Anyways it is so great to see you again and thank you for tuning into every video dude, you absolutely rock. Much love Anna!🫶😁

[@auroraretanabermudez2739]

​@@GreenToast01I think they're just very passionate! :)

[@memetherapy]

Correct with the influences. Radiohead influenced by many, but Pink Floyd definitely one of them. They are often considered the Pink Floyd of our generation. Chorus of Lucky is a perfect example, both the progression and the style of guitar solo. Also, Billie Eilish and her brother are Thom Yorke groupies. The influence is pretty obvious too in their music. If you're trying to understand the lyrical style before you get to Kid A, you're probably out of luck, because Kid A has probably the most abstract lyrics. His writing process was taking abstract phrases and just cutting them up and mixing them up... you can hear it through the album. There's a lot of repetition, but the delivery is very different making for a really disorienting experience. You should check out the Live From The Basement of both In Rainbows and The King Of Limbs. It's probably as important as any album for Radiohead fans.

[@263hamza]

Nude took 10 years for them to perfect. As for live, check out their from the basement for this album, it's something else. Album was release as a pay what you want. Also check out the B-side to this. Also Thom said this album revolved around the idea of death, it can come any time any moment. You will find this theme in many songs

[@_uncredited]

Thom is often difficult to understand, but he's aware of it. He once said he takes inspiration from Bjork - meaning he is more concerned with sound/tone and sometimes "lyrics get in the way".

[@rgg6383]

The hightpitch stuff on the background of Nude is most likely the Ebow Ed is using on the guitar. It's a plastic thingy that makes the guitar strings vibrate when you put it on top of it and it kinda makes it sound like a violin (that's why it's called ebow). It also introduces harmonics since it guitar pickups work by sensing magnetic vibrations and that's what the ebow uses to vibrate the guitar string, so it basically adds noise that adds to the sound of the string so you get those types of random things. I have only used one one time and they are kinda tricky to use because of that random noise you can get

[@im_schmidty]

The beginning of nude is actually the last like minute or so of the song reversed :)

[@nachobusinezzreacts]

I read another comment saying this and not do I have my mind blown off. I didn’t even catch it. Thank you for letting me know!😁🫶

[@danimal519]

A lot of these Radiohead lyrics that sound.so mysterious... I think they're that way because they point into looking into ones own mind. Like in zen they say to get you to notice the moon, the master can point at it -- but the fool mistakes the finger for the moon. Unlike a lot of more disposable music, Radiohead's lyrics and the music cannot be divorced either; so for example in weird fishes you're drowning in that sea of sound, the undulations of those arpeggios, and the lyrics point to the subconscious (the deep waters where weird fishes swim, metaphorically speaking)

[@anotherhenchman]

damn weird fishes was a single for in rainbows? that's nutty. when this album came out, radiohead released it as a pay what you want album. you went to their website, gave them anything from 0 to whatever, and they let you download it. i had no clue they did singles.

[@edwardfox5677]

That part in Nude...what an experience live, 40k people but you coulda heard a pin drop during it.

[@buggingtheshutter]

Whenever you find yourself asking "What was that weird sound?" Its usually Ed's or Jonny's guitar through a boatload of effects pedals

[@nachobusinezzreacts]

Lol! I’m starting to figure that out. It’s kind of crazy the things that one person can do with a guitar especially in the band Radiohead but it’s amazing and SOOO pleasing to the ears. Anyways, I appreciate your support a lot! Hope you enjoyed the video!😄

[@darthzen]

If you check out the That Pedal Show channel here on KZbin, they do a sit-down interview with Ed O’Brien to go over his pedalboard and he shows how he does the soundscapes. It’s fascinating.

[@idesireahimbo]

Bruhhhhhhhhh this album is so fucking good, can't wait to watch this

[@nachobusinezzreacts]

Hell yeah dude! I hope you enjoyed the video!😁

[@colemandias3212]

I'd go back to The Bends if you want a more rock sound from them!! Def check out the 2006 Bonaroo version of Videotapes! Has a completely different sound then the studio. Worth a listen whether you make a reaction video or not!

[@the_oslovian]

The best album in the world, simple as that for me. Never gets old.

[@grantbreslin8095]

my fav album!

[@garethcampbell8415]

Fun fact about 15 Step: according to Spotify’s official ranking system, it is Radiohead’s least sad song!

[@kimvarki]

Probably because of the sound of children cheering 😅

[@nachobusinezzreacts]

Whats up dude! There’s no way lol! They’re songs are pretty sad from what I been listening but I would not have expected 15 steps to be the saddest one lol. I’m gonna go read your other comments now😁

@@nachobusinezzreactsno no he meant it’s the least sad one lol

[@omegafilming]

I think I've heard Finneas actually go on record saying that Radiohead's a huge influence of his, so the parallels between RH and Billie Eilish aren't far off.

[@paulgilligan1535]

What it means is what it makes you feel. We can argue about it later, but no one will win that one!

just start from the beginning from here. Pablo Honey, then the Bends. They rock out.

[@Toastrodamus]

One thing I really love about watching reactions to this album is watching people pretend to be objective and analytical in the face of this blatantly, obscenely powerful album. Sure, pretend to be cool, but once Nude gets its hooks into you you're going to make a fool of yourself. Just enjoy it and ride it out man

[@yannhollister9091]

Best Radiohead album with Kid A. What i like about them is how progressive their songs are, layers after layers like a painting

[@ROArecords2]

It always cracks me up that people complain about reactors reacting. If the don’t want you to talk, they can just listen to the album themselves. Or they could even watch you on mute while they listen to the album.

Case in point. Jigsaw was a single and has no stars.. which is surprising as it’s a class song. Great video

[@GhostlyEcheveria]

It's crazy to think that they released this album for free on Bandcamp. In Rainbows in my second favorite Radiohead album after OK Computer. A lot of people say In Rainbows is their masterpiece, but the true magic started with OK Computer. Kid A felt a bit lacking after the perfection of OK Computer, but there are still great tracks on the album. Amnesiac can be skipped completely in my opinion. And as far as Thom's vocals, you should listen to The Bends. It's definitely more of an alternative rock album, but it has some of Thom's best vocals, in my opinion. It's interesting to see how his singing style has changed over the years.

[@RaulCastillo]

He needs to listen to Just.

[@fizzychizzy]

DO NOT SKIP AMNESIAC. I always find it weird how many people say this. But it is def a stepping stone and arguably my favorite Radiohead album. The way it incorporates the jazziness of the band with the electronic feel. There are songs that you should not skip on that album because of the orchestration. You and Whose Army? Pyramid Song, LIFE IN A GLASSHOUSE. Do not skip the album. How do you understand The King of Limbs if you have never heard Packt Like Sardines in a Crushd Tin Box?

[@rpineda8373]

you also could not understand the lyrics since they are brittish, specially the singer has a very thick accent lol

[@scottmcneely1927]

I checked In Rainbows out at the library and tried, to listen to this band everyone says is the best of the New Millennium. I unfortunately couldn't because I couldn't stay awake long enough. Boring and pretentious. And I don't recommend listening to this in your car because you just might doze off at the wheel.

[@kingshawukee]

Don't worry. Most of us weren't ready for Kid A the first time we heard it.
