Gatagordinha Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Please tell me I am not the only Radiohead fan here on MFC *cue tumbleweed* *waiting for all the 'I prefer Muse' posts * I am going to see them in June and I absolutely can't wait. They are probably just as 'Marmite' as our Mika, but in my opinion they are just the best band in the world bar none. And Thom is a genius. Anyone else...??
xx_emily_x Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 you're not the only one. i love them!! my uncle introduced them to me. i love their album, 'the bends' you're so lucky to see them! they canceled their concerts in australia.

That's a shame! Their world tour is pretty big, they are going to Japan, I'm surprised they can't fit Australia in.. You poor Aussies..why does no-one want to go there?? The Bends is great, my favourite album is OK Computer but I love all their stuff. I call their music my Mika antidote . and the reverse is also true, Mika is my Radiohead antidote.

Gatagordinha Posted May 8, 2008 Author Posted May 8, 2008 I don't think there are any Australian dates for this year...pity. It's impossible for me to pick a favourite song of theirs. From The Bends my favourites are the title track, Bones and Street Spirit, and from OKC, Airbag, Lucky, Let Down and Paranoid Android. I also love Pyramid song, I think it's one of the most beautiful songs ever written, a work of real genius Oh and The National Anthem and Idioteque from Kid A.

Gatagordinha Posted May 8, 2008 Author Posted May 8, 2008 Yes, and of course Mika cancelled too... Who's the band who cancelled on you then? Shame on them I haven't seen Radiohead before, no. I'm not really a big gig-goer but I couldn't pass up this chance, they are playing close to where I live, so I just had to get tickets. And as I'm not going to be spending that money on Mika this year....

You are definetly not the only one, i love thier music very much. they sort of reminds me of a very progressive pink floyd LOL. I really like their early stuff and Kid A which for me is their masterpeice alongside to OK Computer.
SuperTwat Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Radiohead are geniuses, and I don't say that about many people; they made some of the most amazing and innovative music of the 20th century. I can't say that I love one particular album more than another, my favourites are from a mix of them: Paranoid Android, Creep, Karma Police, Street Spirit (Fade Out), Just (You Do It To Yourself), Talk Show Host, Fake Plastic Trees, There There, and a whole heap more. The Street Spirit (Fade Out) music video is one of my most favourite videos of all time: it's so simple yet stunning. I'd love to see them live but they never come down under... like everyone else.
missgaga Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 I love Radiohead...Especially ''Street spirit'' and ''Creep''!
Em' Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Oh God I love Radiohead. I wanted to go to their concert in Paris but it got sold out before I had a chance to buy my ticket... I intend to wait in front of the venue in the hope to get a ticket at a reasonable price...

Mika and Radiohead in the same festival sounds like heaven on Earth to me
xx_emily_x Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 Yes, and of course Mika cancelled too... Who's the band who cancelled on you then? Shame on them I haven't seen Radiohead before, no. I'm not really a big gig-goer but I couldn't pass up this chance, they are playing close to where I live, so I just had to get tickets. And as I'm not going to be spending that money on Mika this year.... it was a band called 'funeral for a friend' i know, it sounds a bit morbid.. but their music is so good. you should listen!
suzie Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 I like Radiohead, too:punk:, but I can't say I am a fan... (I can count the number of artists I am a fan of on one hand:wink2:... 'cause I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo... ) :punk:
AKateisaKate Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 I like Radiohead, but I always feel stupid around my Newspepr Advisor who loves them. I thought I had this cover of Radiohead doing "Video Killed The Radio Star," but I hadn't listened to it in a while. As soon as I gave it to him, we listened to it out loud and I quickly realized it was def. not actually Radiohead. D'oh!
Gatagordinha Posted October 7, 2008 Author Posted October 7, 2008 I just had to bump my thread to say HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY THOM YORKE!!! I you he he I'm not a fangurl:mf_rosetinted:
ewokwicket Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 :roftl: Nice siggie by the way Gat! You are SOOOOOOOOOOOO a fangurl!
Gatagordinha Posted October 7, 2008 Author Posted October 7, 2008 I am the only Radiohead fan in the (MFC) village. Well nearly. Where is sweet these days???
ewokwicket Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 Sweet who?? Sweet dreams? Sweet heart? Sweet biscuit? Sweet and sour??? :naughty:
Gatagordinha Posted October 7, 2008 Author Posted October 7, 2008 Sweet who?? Sweet dreams? Sweet heart? Sweet biscuit? Sweet and sour??? sweet!! She is an MFCer and also a Thom fan! Haven't see her round here though lately, having said that I haven't been here myself Fangurls make Thom go: Aaaah SuperTwat I forgot, there are one or two others And Thom luvs fangurls:mf_rosetinted: For the lulz. Gotta love the Yorke!
Em' Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 I am the only Radiohead fan in the (MFC) village. Well nearly. Where is sweet these days??? No way Gatagordinha, you're not the only one ! Happy Birthday Thom by the way ! I managed to see them in Paris - both dates were sold out but my friend and I managed to buy tickets from someone in front of the venue at a reasonable price... The concert was good but we kind of were unlucky because I got to know that their concert next day (they played twice in Bercy - they're huge in France) was far better as they had a real connection this time with the audience (which lacked at the concert I was at). To me, setlist was also kinda better on the second day (they played songs I so wanted to hear but I did not get them ). Anyway I don't regret going to see them, I always wanted to !

I had a great time at the Manchester concert back in June, it was fab. I hope I don't have to wait too long to see them again, it'd be great to see them in an indoor venue, somewhere smaller, where you have more intimacy (and a better view of Thom ). Shame you missed that second gig..
SuperTwat Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Oh you lucky ducks! Radiohead haven't been down to Oz since 2004 and I couldn't go then because I was still underage.
