None of Mozart's, Liszt's, Debussy's or Saint-Saens's albums are anywhere near as good as Radiohead's catalogue, and those guys produced a LOT of albums!!

This work competes with any Radiohead album.

They're really not. They're the opposite of conversation. Write something about your favourite stuff, don't just list it.

That was the first ranking list I've ever made. Never even occurred to me to make a list about something else. So it was new to me.

I kinda feel like you guys are acting like Wikipedia editors.

Yes, for some reason Radiohead does this to people.

Nonetheless lists are banned in the rules thread, and have been for a long time.

I know you're just having fun and being hyperbolic... but you do realize that at least two of those composers had such significant contributions to music theory that they demark certain eras in the western canon right?

This guy makes pretty good lists at least, with the links and everything's numbered.

Do you do other lists now that youve got the bug? Best number of times to tap a doorknob before you open it?

pretty fucking embarrassing to watch
If that's the same one I got from Dime its a pretty sweet tape as well - other than the AMSP songs (all but Glass Eyes, Tinker Tailer and True Love Waits) it has banging versions of a bunch of stuff - Talk Show Host, Lotus Flower, Seperator plus the new version of EEIRP that they now seem to be doing.

Actually makes me a lot sad that I won't be seeing them, although the only UK gigs they are doing are three in a 2000 capacity venue at the other end of the country, which is really annoying...

This is the same recording as what's on Dime and the Hub right now. Glass Eyes and True Love Waits are the only AMSP songs yet to be played. From what I've heard, this is the better of the two shows so far, both in the band's performance and the quality of the recording (although both shows are more than listenable).


Edit: Probably won't be able to see them on this tour, unless they add a bunch of US dates. I was spoiled with their In Rainbows and King of Limbs tours.

If you MUST all discuss lists why don't you rip apart RollingStone's fan poll of the best post-90's Radiohead songs?

http://www.rollingstone.com/music/lists/readers-poll-the-10-best-post-1990s-radiohead-songs-20160518

6 tracks from In Rainbows... not enough!
Kid A and Amnesiac sorely under-represented

Don't give a drat about Creep. Thom said it was for shock value. I bet it's everyone else's genuine favourite Radiohead song.

True Love Waits was played though..

I'm not a huge fan; but I'd dig seeing it live since they do it so rarely. Especially if they perform it like they did last night, Thom actually tried which he sometimes doesn't for older songs

I had heard Creep a million times before, but I don't think its power had fully sunken in til I caught the performance clip on a rewatch of Meeting People is Easy earlier this year. God drat.

Also, general shout out to that film. It's really unique and cool and everyone should watch it.

Everyone raised their cellphones pretending they were lighters. Thom prefaced it by saying "We like this song now." And that's my Creep live performance story.

If they're gonna dig in to Pablo Honey for a song, I wish they'd go for one of the good ones (You or Blow Out... maybe Anyone Can Play Guitar).

yeah it's a loving well written pop song. a good showcase for johnny and thom as well.

I still think Prince's cover is the definitive version but since he's dead I'll take Radiohead playing it once in a while.
