He's an introvert. When you listen to Kid A you already know that Jonny Greenwood enjoyed making it more than the other members, but a guy like me would just say "I mean its a good record"

[@GooberMagonk]

By the way the reason he feels the hosts are weird is because they are using weird fake voices and laughing at weird times and he sounds like he just woke up and is talking to aliens who just learned the program for human language

[@taskforcecheesebread]

I love it when Jonny says "what?" His accent is absolutely gold!

[@pseudoplotinus]

'filmed in london... little factoid.' 'The Muppets?' 'WHAT'

I love Johnny's tone with "What?" too

[@lucyfoster4082]

He's so genuine. The interviewers are very rude.

[@marze1792]

I have to say, although I think the interviewers were heckin rude, this is probably my favorite interview, Jonny's sense of humor is great

[@mehimself3936]

Nah i think the contrast is funny between them,not every interviewer needs to be quiet and serious all the time,not everybody who isn't as awkward as johnny shouldn't also talk to them.

[@maximilianwarne9435]

johnny is so polite

[@mmbris]

Jonny held his own through that interview. The hosts doing the interview sounded like two frat boys the whole time and Jonny seemed like, "what the fuck is this?"

I feel bad for jonny but at the same time he's so cute and genuine xd

[@rediffs]

Every time he said "what?" that was the best thing

[@SamOwenI]

Oh pull yourselves together, the interviewers are fine here... The way they're speaking to Jonny in this interview emphasises the contrast between them and Jonny. There's nothing wrong with that, it's entertaining, and it's what we know and love from Radiohead.

[@etymol8896]

Yeah- I go back to this interview regularly because the contrast is hilarious. The interviewers may not be the most sophisticated, but they totally added to the awkward hilarity.

love how he ends with "talk to you later"...

That is exactly the way he was when I spoke to him! I've had the privilege (I still can't believe it, although it was in 1997) to chat him up myself, although it was a bit more brief. He is incredibly shy yet incredibly fun to talk to! A nice person.

'nor me, I just colour in the pictures really'

[@tehJESSEH]

I don't get it... I've listened to this interview maybe on four different occasions, and each time I never found the interviewers to be rude or condescending or inappropriate... they're radio jockeys playing to a public audience that may or may not know who Jonny Greenwood is. This is a very entertaining interview for ANYONE who listens, not just Radiohead fans. In that respect, they did a very good job, and judging by how Jonny left, I really don't think he was offended at all.
