FORMED: 1989, Oxford, England Radiohead is widely regarded as one of the world's most important bands of today. While their debut was rather modest, they were shot to stardom after the success of "OK Computer" - a success that few probably would have expected or predicted when the five of them started playing together in the early 80s after meeting at Abingdon School in Oxford. Thom Yorke was the driving force of the band. He was singing in the punk band TNT, but asked the TNT bass player, Colin Greenwood, if he wanted to join him and guitar player Ed O'Brien in a new band. One year older Phil Selway started playing drums in the band. Colin's younger brother Jonny hung around them, bugging them, asking to join. Eventually, he was allowed to play with them, firs More...

The lyrics are so simple but have such deep hidden meaning. The beat is fantastic and i just can't stop listening to it! I bet at least 99% of people can to relate to at least one line in this song. If you haven't downloaded this already, DO IT NOW!! not so necessarily narrow | Reviewer: Thomas ------ About the song Exit Music (For a Film) performed by Radiohead I understand that this song was made for the reason of being the music for the end of romeo and juliet, but come on now, its radiohead! they have tons of double meanings in their music! yes the song is about the walk towards death romeo and juliet take, but underneath it contains the essence of what shakespeare's message was for romeo and juliet, that being, change is inevitable and old rules and traditions can be extremely hurtful. no, radiohead did not come up with that, shakespeare did, but its important to understand the reason behind why romeo and juliet were running away from their parent's rules to their death. there's my two cents. i love this song and i love you radiohead! keep making more music, i love all of it from pablo honey to in rainbows! 15 step | Reviewer: cupcake ------ About the song 15 Step performed by Radiohead i love this song very much. even without the lyrics, musically, its a great hook. the 5/4 gives it an awesome feel plus the thumping bassy drums that drive it all from beginning to end and all the fun percussion. even the easy, jazzy guitar from the middle part and it all just builds up, adding more and more and with all the little effects like the little crescendo going into the 2nd 'you used to be alright' and it all just explode in time to end strong, more power from his singing and all the instruments too. Love love love love. keep going foward | Reviewer: loroacuático ------ About the song (nice dream) performed by Radiohead As all the songs of radiohead it have a significant that you can understand like a sarcastic or ironic, but the real its that your mind keeps it lineal, your body, your inconcient wont feel the ironisism. Inside your mind keeps rolling the most repetitive phrases or the lines that are made "specials", "if you think you are strong enough (nice dream)" Its hard to recognize, I was a fan of Radiohead and I love them very much, analize every part of them, and I realize that the band was making something bad inside of me. Since I left to hear them, my life changed for good. Anyway I gave thanks to Radiohead to help me in a inside journey, I think they really help me, but in a time you will have to release them. "Release me, light another candle" (His advertice) Good luck in this journey to everyone! :) What it means | Reviewer: Ben ------ About the song Creep performed by Radiohead I am pretty sure that thom yorke was really sarcastic in those lyrics. I mean... yes thom is a weirdo and he thought he was a piece of shit back in 91. But look at him now :D Frontlines to earth's defense, 2000 most notorious artist. He is considered as a hero by many people in the world. Maybe he does belong here after all. So... take this as an example kids, you ARE NOT a piece of shit and nobody has the right to claim themselves better than you. Even if they are millionaires or corp holders... we are all of flesh and bones. What I see | Reviewer: Lucas ------ About the song Exit Music (For a Film) performed by Radiohead What I see is probably too obvious, but it's what it represents to me, not what I think it's about. I see a boyfriend sneaking into his girl's home and helping her to run away from home. And then it tells about their journey, like the part "sing us a song..." I picture both at night with a chilling cold, but they have nothing but each other, so they sing to keep themselves warm. After this they're talking to society and how it's destroying itself with all the rules and stuff. That was my take =) Tragic | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Street Spirit (fade out) performed by Radiohead I lost a good girlfriend in maryland recently. She was riding her bike accross the street and was hit by a truck. Street spirit became a way for me to deal with the ugliness and gravity of the situation. The other night however I was smashed drunk thinking of kristen and had this song playing. I snapped. Out of nowhere I started throwing chairs at my friends and chasing them down the street. I contribute my emotional meltdown to the utter evilness of this song. The devil found within me a doorway to our world and showed his ugliness through my emotion. This song's beauty only furthers it's disguisting nature, tricking us into believing that we are listening to a melodic materpiece instead of a song that was written directly by the devil himself. Thom Yorke knows this all too well and has admitted on several occasions that he lacks the compacity to deal with this song emotionally. I'm going to listen to this song one last time right now and delete it. Never to listen to it again... Its about suicide | Reviewer: nuckingfutter ------ About the song No Surprises performed by Radiohead it is about suicide, he saying his heart is full, he has bruises theat wont heal and he has a job that is killing him so he will take a carbon monoxide handshake instead, you cant get more clear about suicide than that. knowing 3 people that have commited suicide and that was how they were feeling its pretty clear to me. it reminds me | Reviewer: joey ------ About the song Creep performed by Radiohead of how i feel in most situations, i cant handle it when people are nice to me, or sympathetic towards me. for some reason i cant show emotion or feelings, idont know why. thats what i take from this song, i dont belong here, its easier to avoid people who are nice to me..............GREAT SONG egheggeeghhh | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song I Might Be Wrong performed by Radiohead Is the noise I feel like making when explaining how INCREDIBLE this band is. Can I just take the time to say a couple of things. 1. I do agree that Thom Yorke is an absolute genius, in more ways than one, but please don't forget the rest of the band. I don't think that Thom can do all this on his own (As his album Eraser showed quite clearly). Thom has said him self that even Phil (Drummer) has a large input into how the music is made, in a deeper level than just the drums. 2. You all should buy the box set of their work. Every single one of their albums is fantastic. I know that Pablo Honey is no where near as good as the rest (in my opinion) but it's still a great album. And in the box set, you get the I Might Be Wrong live album, which has the most incredible live songs, such as Like Spinning Plates on Piano, which is just amazing. Support this band. amazing song | Reviewer: cupcake ------ About the song Myxomatosis performed by Radiohead i have listened to this song multiple times and haven't even begun analyzing the lyrics lol! at first i too somehow thought the song was in a strange time signature, but the count-off and whole song is in 4 but it has a strange an awesome feel that makes it different! it's a mesmerizing song. the instruments really puts me in a trance. somehow the vocals make me feel like i want him to sing out, but it also makes me feel like "wow he's portraying the song perfectly". it's a strange pull! My favorite cover song | Reviewer: Slicey ------ About the song Creep performed by Radiohead For an amazing cover of this song check out Brandi Carlile [Live in Boston]. It's available on amazon. Brandi does covers at every concert - this one is so painfully beautiful I absolutely love it. Might be my favorite cover of all time. holocaust | Reviewer: miz lis ------ About the song Idioteque performed by Radiohead It makes sense to me that the song is about the holocaust and concentration camps. Women and children were the first to go into the gas chambers (ill laugh until my head comes off, ill swallow till i burst) is about the gas chambers. Ice age coming (they've said that the ashes from those chambers would come out from the top and it would look like snow falling on the ground, there's a very good movie i can't remember the name of that references the snow fact) and they lived in bunkers in the camps. now as for the mobiles chirping and quirking? unless he meant to write walkie talkies but couldnt find a rhyme, then that would be the only marker to indicate its not about the concentration camps as there were no cell phones back then. lol But thats what makes sense to me!! back to the song | Reviewer: emilian ------ About the song Paranoid Android performed by Radiohead This song is what I ever expected to listen to before I knew it. Especially the first part. Did you know it was assembled from 3 separate melodies? So, the first melody to me is 100 percent explicit pronunciation of states of my mind that I could never explain to anybody. Sorrow mixed up with invisible creativity that would always keep me locked in solitude otherwise. Now that the song exists, I know that this phenomenon is not uniquely mine. It is about the current state of affairs in the world and the treatment of Human. Maybe it doesn't reach to politics, just to family and society. Something has to be changed as not to get much of this unique creative output of sorrow! WE | Reviewer: jacob ------ About the song Life In A Glass House performed by Radiohead I always thought that this song was about Yevgeny Zamyatin's novel WE. Other songs of thoms, especially around this time, had a lot of Orwell and Huxley influences in them, so i think its pretty logical to think that WE, which plays to the same tune as 1984 and brave new world, is in here somewhere. i always the lyrics were 'and she is paper in the window pain' , a reference to those pink slips that have to put in the windows when they have sex with each other. And that also kinda hints at the downward spiral kinda theme that radiohead reference so much. like the bastardization of sex and what not..., also, the hungry for the linching thing kinda hints at what happens at the end of the book (dont wanna say in case somebody reads it but i guess that isnt too sublte :p ), and the chorus is also like the big brother is watching me thing too. and they lived in glass houses in the book, i guess that would be the biggest reference.... Radiohead | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song FITTER HAPPIER performed by Radiohead This song scares the shit out of me. its one of my favorites, but i've never heard such a chilling creepy fortune. The voice rivals that of Pink Floyd's The Wall.Love this song though, I think it's telling of a life we're going to be living. I can almost see this coming out of the book 1984 by George Orwell. Conforming? | Reviewer: ckelly ------ About the song Paranoid Android performed by Radiohead I have a feeling this song is just about others conforming, and conformity in general. Like the Line I may be paranoid, but not an android, i think means While they're worried, they aren't being what is expected and what not. But i think the anonymous guy put it best, Music is just made to be listened to and loved. It's just second nature for me to Analyze. ANYWAY. Great song, it touched me, and really got me into Radiohead. better each time | Reviewer: uknown ------ About the song Weird Fishes / Arpeggi performed by Radiohead the way I interpreted this song was, that unless you hold on to someone obsessively or belong to a mindless group, you will be "picked over by the worms." you will drop in the food chain of society until there is no way back up. I realize that this meaning doesn't fit with some parts of the song but it's the way I see it and the only way I want to see it radiohead are THE band of this generation | Reviewer: finbar ------ About the song FITTER HAPPIER performed by Radiohead imho, this song is about modern society and it's ability to make you feel included and empowered and at the same time completly impotent and alienated, which in reality is what you are. you can tick all the right boxes, do all the prescribed activities, live 'right' etc, but still be pointless and 'animal'in you decisions, with very little real choice and power over your destiny. Radiohead are the prophets of this generation and the one really great pop band. Throw away your bland Coldplay drivel and get the real thing!!
