Radiohead - Optimistic (Live in London '00)

[@schwaggbagYES]

I remember seeing this in 2000 or so, on a VH1 best live bands top ten. I was 14 or 15, and this was unlike anything I ever heard, and stood out among the other bands in a major way. It blew my mind that a band could sound like this. It sounded like it had come out of a dream or something

OhNo I also remember seeing it on the same channel and was like how can this crappy setup of like one red light flashing on and off still seem so fit and amazing ?? Like the song just carried it?? Idk if that makes sense even but yeah, affected me

[@patrichcerpa2923]

fuck, exactly the same here.

I was watching it tooo, same thing. But it was when they played Idioteque on SNL that I was like, “WTF is this sound, Why can I not stop listening. Is Thom having a seizure?”Made me reevaluate whatever I thought I had liked.... How many can we get in this thread? The moment a bunch of high school kids heard Kid A

The same story, a man blowing experience for me. It was it, nothing could compare to it.

My 1st exposure to Radiohead and I was HOOKED! Still my FAVORITE song. I LOVE Thom in a major way! He is just the best and coolest guy!

Was there, with my young kids and hubby, from California. A bunch of us were from the RHMB.

Just no one like them. Utterly glorious.

Hermoso tema !!!!

[@litefifdy8603]

This made me a Radiohead fan in the first few seconds, never heard anything like it when it came out.
