Radiohead: Kid A Canadian TV Special Presentation

[@mikestibor1]

Sook-Yin Lee was the perfect match for Thom as interviewer/interviewee. I think he appreciated that she wasn't a robot interviewer and that she had her own thoughts and opinions.

[@なぎっちゃん-c2w]

Couldn't agree more! The other interviews that they have done together are awesome too.

[@jasonberndt5895]

Came here to say this. Just a bit late to the Radiohead Appreciation Club's meeting.

[@jasonberndt5895]

This docu helped me appreciate their naive-genius status as musicians (Thom and Johnny, but also the members that can keep up with their musical explorations.)

Sook yin is so pretentious, she inspires rage

[@bitchyivyonvideo]

@@sophiafakevirus-ro8cc people call things that they can't comprehend, "pretentious." you know what's pretentious? Republicans. fight something worth fighting

[@huebdoo]

I met Sook Yin when she was singing in a band called, "Bob's Your Uncle" in Vancouver in the late 80's I remember her showing us her amazing collection of squirt guns. Her apartment was like a art instillation and she was an absolute force of energy. Year's later she made it Much music, movies ... Well deserved to such an amazing person.

“Catching tunes in the guise of being strange.” She just nailed it. That’s true for all revolutionary bands. Catchy tunes, new sound. Beatles, nirvana, Floyd, Radiohead.

"We gonna suck the young blood to keep going" seems pretty familiar...

[@vincevirtua]

Aside from Muse I really don't hear anyone from that time that sounds like Thom..maybe Coldplay at a stretch. He's kind of reaching for stuff to be unhappy about. Thom himself was trying to sound like Jeff Buckley anyhow.

i just love this piece of interwiew ..you got thom just being honest..

[@jasonkh3943]

You don't see mainstream music media going into the depths of an album like this anymore, probably because there aren't too many albums worth going into depth about. Long Live Kid A

[@Aphex_Kid]

thank you so much for posting this. Kid A is my favorite album ever made and as a bonus it’s the first interview I’ve ever watched with Thom. What a brilliant great man!

[@timculp4126]

My mother heard me playing Everything, in it's right place and said it sounded like a funeral dirge. She was 80, God bless her.

[@FlowersfOrdaysart]

I Love everything in its right place and the fact that it is on the Kid A album. I watched another interview with Thom and he said he just realized he did not have to "White knuckle" it so hard and that that was what made being a musician so hard on him at the end of OK computer. He felt a lot of pressure for them to be perfect. You can literally see a change in Radiohead from OK computer to Kid A where they just let go and did what they loved. I feel like everything in its right place captures this so well. Definitely one of their songs that just hits differently.

[@jake2879]

Holy fuck billboard gave Kid A half a star?

[@ignas3157]

Boohoo it wasnt another Ok Computer. -Billboard

[@patrickcrawford6392]

It's a good thing Thom never got into hard drugs.....he could have easily fallen into the same hole as Kurt Cobain....

[@kathleenreyes23]

who needs hard drugs when you make music this good, so much that it's a drug in itself

[@microcassettes]

he said he tried acid once and it was too much for his mind to handle. good man

[@deltaframes]

I think not

[@WickedLiquid]

If Thom had the same tragedy it most likely would've happened after OK Computer, at least that's the impression I get from Meeting People is Easy. That would be a damn shame since IMO OK Computer to In Rainbows (1997-2007) is the pinnacle of Radiohead. I know A Moon Shaped Pool is highly regarded but it was too slow of an album for me to get invested in. Having said that I still think Daydreaming is still one of the best damn songs of their discography

[@TheLiveMusicGroup]

[@DelayedJet]

I agree with the interviewer in saying that the album is comforting in a way. Not in the kind of way that makes me entirely miss the whole point of the record, but rather that there is a chaotic, fucked up epicenter that perfectly speaks for you and the fucked up shit that you go through. To me, this album is Radiohead's best attempt at personifying alienation and distance. The music and strange sounds represent the abnormality that you feel within yourself when you look at the world around you - that sort of thing. With a lot of other albums that try to portray similar themes, maybe even with any other attempts from Radiohead, I don't feel like I could take such a feeling of comfort with me. I feel like they'd make me feel worse, in many respects. This album is a big exception. It's just that feeling of: "Finally, someone gets it. Someone understands." And when you consider the bout of depression that Thom began going through a couple of years before Kid A, it all makes sense.

[@ilsk8in94]

Marknetick Built to Spills album "perfect from now on" had a similar type of comfort/general feeling to Kid A imo, (but still not exact) In a different way and sound obviously. I would hurt a fly, or made up dreams are songs i would start on if you're interested. Made-up dreams starts off pretty basic, but the ending on it gives me that similar Radiohead fucking magic 👌🏽

[@DelayedJet]

@@ilsk8in94 Thanks for the suggestion! I'll check it out.

[@ilsk8in94]

Marknetick no problem m8✊. Yeah I couldn't agree more with what you said, and I just had to share some of the music that has kept me sane and at ease in these shitty times

[@BT405]

I think Kid A was really needed to get the band out of their comfort zone as people and loosen up and become more fun and not as reserved and shy as they were earlier in their career, especially Thom

[@BrunoOliveira-mb4qz]

It's been an one year and some months since I see this interview. I love kid a and for me this album is the hangover for ok computer, it's very the anthythesy of 1997 to 2000 not all the songs but you know what I mean. The phrase "I wake up sucking at lemon", i see in one interview with thom that he said that this prhase repserent his face during the big success on ok computer (i might be wrong), but this is one of the things that make me understand the band at the time not to make a lot of interviews and being on the media all the time like the ok computer era.

[@Amphanotes]

Well he tries the best he can, oh yes he tries the best he can. The best he can is good enough, The best he can is good enough. And i guess it shows being honest with how you feel and being honest with sadness isn't such a bad thing after all maybe ;)

9:58 what's ironic nowadays is auto tune is everywhere. I seriously doubt back in 2000 Thom wanted a future where distorting vocals became mainstream pop. Or maybe he did and just never imagined it would really happen because it sounds so batshit crazy.

[@lunakid12]

Yeah, but autotune is just another tool, and I think Thom would probably use it like any other effect or instrument. No worries. Autotuning etc. have certainly changed a lot about music, but that's OK. Some day a crazy musician will discover the eerie effect of singing with an unprocessed human voice. ;)

[@ItsWhatever24]

Anyone else think Thom’s current wife kind of scratches the itch that this lady left with him? They look kind of similar at a glance...
