RadioHead Vs Miley + Kayne

[Brill Weave]

Beckwin was born in 86? Fuck I feel old. And Sept if I met you in person I would probably punch you in the face. Not for anything you've done to me, but just in case if there were a future transgression on your part. Cause I'm a fucking diva like that.

Claiming that Radiohead has marketed themselves off of "Creep" is the same as claiming you don't know one fucking thing about the band as well as being deaf.

"The song that nearly broke the band apart, Creep was released twice as a single in the UK and was a pretty major hit, but not as much as in America, where Radiohead were known for "that Creep song". As the band toured America, people would turn up just to hear Creep and leave. No-one paid any attention to Pablo Honey, or any of the new songs from The Bends, and very soon every college student was singing it, and it graced every karaoke machine and jukebox in the country.

Ever since then, the band have been trying to break free of being bound by Creep. They hate the song, yet do feel obliged to play it "we only play this because it is still a good song". They wrote My Iron Lung purposely about their hatred of the song, but it was not until the recent hit of Paranoid Android that the band start to see some mass recognition of other songs. However, they band will always be burdened with Creep.

Bizarrely, the original words to the song had a line : "shoulder of lamb, frying in a pan", and reportedly, Jonny's now-famous guitar 'scratchings' were his way of showing frustration which was otherwise a boring, quiet song."

"[About the guitar part] That's the sound of Jonny trying to fuck the song up. He really didn't like it the first time we played it, so he tried spoiling it." - Ed

I actually already knew that which makes my original statement that it went downhill from there all the more funny. It's still their best song and him trying to fuck it up is the best part of the song. What's that sayin' exactly?

[Correction]

My god I'm hilarious, and I have my opinion set and I treat it like proven fact so nope, not going to contribute to anything but my postcount like an asshole.

Fixed.

[Ohaigaiz]

Fixed.

I don't even

What's your deal with me? I've made more posts relevant to the topic in this thread than you have. I can't even make a post without you on my dick. If you want my cell # I'll PM it to you. Goddamn never seen someone so butthurt over radio head.

[miokomioko]

Call me an elitist music snob, whatever, but only obnoxious/anonymous internet brats have the odacity to talk shit about a group widely known as some of the best modern musicians alive. You know nothing of their creative integrity if you think they "sold out." You know nothing of music if you think everything since Pablo Honey sounds like "Creep." You're a lost cause if you honestly think "Creep" was their best song and everything went downhill from there. I think some people need to grow up a bit, evolve their tastes out of the typical angsty bullshit that fills their highschool lockers.

[Day]

I think it's time some people understand what the fuck an opinion is.

Edit: I just love the condescending fucking tone you and correction take because someone doesn't hold the same opinion as you over a band. I couldn't possibly know anything about Radiohead or music for that matter because I find their songs, quite frankly, boring? I'm the one that's lost because you hold this view "evolve their tastes out of the typical angsty bullshit that fills their highschool lockers" about someone who doesn't agree with you over a band you like. I know nothing of music... just lol...

[Lavik]

tool uses the fibonnaci sequence

MAYNARD IS A GENIUS

Obligatory 'lern 2 reed.' The highschool angst comment was not aimed at you solely for not thinking Radiohead is amazing. The highschool angst was aimed at you for thinking "Creep" was the pinnacle of their songwriting, as that is exactly what the song is admittedly full of.

Also, what did you expect when you decided troll this thread? You deserved the condescending fucking tone.

And from an unknown poster in the old fake Radiohead-quitting thread a while back... something along the lines of:

"People trying to bash Radiohead? lolBG"

[Acturus]

I am enjoying the 7 pages of diatribes over what constitutes both good music as well as proper internet arguing.

But can we at least look at the context of what happened here. Kanye West and Miley Cyrus deserve to be spat on (both literally and figuratively) by Radiohead and the rest of British Music just because... it's fucking Kanye West and Miley Cyrus.

[Yuri-G]

My question to the people who think this makes Thom Yorke a douche is this: What makes Miley Cyrus so fucking special? There are millions of people who would love a chance to meet Radiohead and very few of them ever get to. Just because she's got connections, they have to give into her whims? Are they douchebags for not meeting every single other one of their fans? I'm sure if Miley wanted to go to a meet and greet (if Radiohead does that) and get an album signed, they'd love to chat with her for a second. Otherwise, she can fuck off.

[Melchiah]

As this topic has now descended into "If you don't fellate Radiohead, you're wrong and your taste is substandard and therefore anything you prefer is clearly garbage" I think I'm going to bow out of this one.

[Dimmauk]

Miley and Kanye like Radiohead, so if you like Radiohead then you are like Miley and Kanye.

Miley and Kanye dont like Radiohead anymore, so if you dont like Radiohead, then you are like Miley and Kanye.

Lose. Lose.

[Plow]

Well now I've got some advice for you, little buddy.
Before you point your finger you should know that I'm the man.

And if I'm the man, then you're the man, and he's the man as well, so you can point that fuckin' finger up your ass.

All you know about me is what I've sold you.
Dumb fuck.
I sold out long before you ever even heard my name.

I sold my soul to make a record.
Dip shit, and you bought one.

Love Tool. They could kick Radiohead's ass!

[Kuya]

I used to think that the people who had issues with me might have had a point, that is, till i watched them rail on eachother for the dumbest reasons imaginable and so i realized that they're just dicks.

[Day]

Why so passive aggressive Kuya? Just call a bitch out.

If I post my opinion, I'm not trolling you buddy, I'm sorry if you don't agree with my taste in music. I don't clump everyone who thinks Radiohead is amazing into some category of musical knowledge so don't be stupid and do the reverse.

You're actually the only one who has ever had a reason to get back at me, tbh, so no didn't mean you lol.

[Baha]

What's the problem here? Declining a fan wanting to see you is not diva behaviour. Asking for a bathtub filled with champagne and 101 white roses in your dressing room pre-concert is diva behaviour. See also: Mariah Carey.

Srsly, neither of the three will meet every single fan, even if they wanted to. Radiohead says 'fuck this protocol' and two people don't get what they feel they are entitled to. Boo fucking hoo.

Dissapointing two 'fans' =/= shitting on your fanbase whomadeyoupopularcelebritiesinthefirstplace ;_;

Who needs to oblige fans if they're already this rabid amirite?

[Shiroikage]

I never really cared too much for any Radiohead songs besides Creep and Fake Plastic Trees.
