This song has always felt like Radiohead’s bohemian rhapsody to me, maybe it’s the structure that does it, my admiration for this band goes beyond words it’s simply the soundscape of my life, Jonny Greenwood has also composed some of the most stunning soundtracks to modern films. I don’t think we will see a band like this again.

Radiohead’s “OkComputer” is in a similar vein as PinkFloyd’s “wish you were here” or “dark side of the moon” , they are Albums that make more sense listening to the whole thing, but they all deal with modern life’s neurosis and the yearning (and inability) to connect.

The feeling of going down the Radiohead rabbit hole for the first time was both stunning and scary. The first song I've ever heard from them was Idioteque, which is still my 2nd favorite Radiohead song. Months, years passed by, and when I listened to Paranoid Android, I loved it and just kept hitting the replay button for an hour straight. Then, other Radiohead songs were starting to pop up in the recommendations, I started to explore the whole (OK Computer) album, and I only listened to Creep after all these, which was, a good song I guess, but this album had already amazed me. You can't really reach this extremely high level ever again - I thought, before I listened to In Rainbows. Oh, my God...

Also the "With all these unborn chicken voices in my head" line of Paranoid Android kind of refers to the same thing as Street Spirits third verse I think.

Agreed! Such a great song. Also, according to Thom himself, the only Radiohead song that has absolutely no moment of hope in it whatsoever. It's just 100% bleak. But, still, what a great song!

From OK Computer to Kid A to Amnesiac to In Rainbows and the album before and all the albums after. Radiohead is one of the greatest bands of all time. Ever. It isn't even a conversation. They are consistently great and while their sound is varied it is uniquely distinct to the band. Whenever I hear the opening to Airbag, the first song off OK Computer, I'm instantly taken back to being in high school and can see the glowing dashboard of my Volkswagen. The album came out years before I could even drive but it was the first album I played. My friends, girlfriends and I would blast that album with the windows down driving around in the hot Atlanta summer nights.

Sometimes I’d throw in 311’s “Soundsystem”.. Good times!!

Or you can go to "The Bends" and listen to "The Bends", "Fake Plastic Trees", "Street Spirit". Off "In Rainbows" you have "Weird Fishes", "Reckoner". And you still haven't touched "Kid A", "Amnesiac", or "Hail To the Thief".

Radiohead kind of crept up on me. When I first heard them, I wasn't sure I liked them. After hearing them a few more times over the course of two or three years, I suddenly heard genius in everything they did. Especially Paranoid Android, which has entered my top ten list of favorite songs.🐙

About the "God loves his children" line: There's an urban myth that Thom Yorke had originally wrote/sang "God loves his children...that's why he kills them", but the record label deemed it too risky/controversial. As an urban myth, that's not true at all. But Brad is definitely right about Thom being facetious and sarcastic when singing "God loves his children"
@maudelhoyo4019
@maudelhoyo4019 3 жыл бұрын
I think that line is meant to say how can God love his children if they can be real pieces of shit. That fits more than the "God loves his children, that's why he kills them" myth, it doesn't fit to what is being said in the song and what Thom has said inspired it, at least to me.

Going from Creep to Paranoid Android is a big culture shock. Radiohead made monumental gains in their innovation as a band in that time. When Ok Computer came out it was an event. People were listening to this song which was release as the first single trying to wrap their head around it. Then, after hearing the entire album there was even more of trying to figure out what the fck it was. It blew a lot of people's minds and completely rendered Brit Pop obsolete much the same way that Nevermind did with 80s glam metal. It is widely regarded as one of the best albums of the 90s. My favorite thing about it is that everyone has an opinion of it. If you listen to the entire record you can't ignore it. Some people hate it. Some people love it but everyone has a response to it one way or the other. That is what real art is about.

I believe it’s natural for anyone who is not familiar with Radiohead to feel quite “disturbed” after they listen to this song ( think of your grandparents hearing creep or karma police for the first time). With that being said, rh does a great job of connecting sound to evoke this feeling of mental unrest an otherwise normal & healthy minded individual would never experience. Thank you brad & lex for being open minded to entertaining such a wide array of music requests!

I believe alot of the lyrics from this song came from an experience Thom had in a bar/club in LA, surrounded by people who had taken ALOT of cocaine. Not sure if that's true. But I do strongly hear the notion of the 'being the only sobor person at the party' when I hear this song. Also - after watching more than a few of your videos over the last month or so . . . This one confirmed it to me - Subscribed 🤣🤣 Other Radiohead songs to check out have to include: My Iron Lung Just Street Spirit Nice Dream Fake Plastic Trees Subterranean Homesick Alien Let Down Karma Police No Surprises Everything in its right place Idioteque The National Anthem Pyramid song 2+2=5 There, There 15 Step Weird fish/Arpeggi Video Tape Nude Lotus Flower Morning Mr. Magpie Give up the Ghost Daydreaming

In Rainbows - From the Basement. Check out basically any tune from that live studio recording, such a vibrant performance from the guys. The first 4 or 5 albums were Radiohead's finding their place, and by this point they were really top of their game, adding all the elements that influenced them into their style.

I bought the Ok Computer album when it was released in 1997. I don´t think that I have listened more to a album than to that amazing album! I would be lying if I said that I fell for it directly. I was new to Radiohead and their expression and soundstage. But the songs fascinated me, and I listened to it, over and over. When it all fell to place I was hooked. And still is. Some 20+ years after. The group demands that you actively listening to their music, and the Ok Computer experience needs to be listened to as a whole, in my opinion. All songs are connected with each other. Ok Computer and The Bends came out in the 90´s. It still is one of the best rock albums ever made.
