Meh. Idk why but I've come to despise Knives Out. It's a song that makes me want to hit skip.

If youre gonna insult a track at least get the name right, Hunting Bears. And I don’t see anything wrong with it, it fit’s the rest of the albums sound.

Holy shit sweet. How is it even possible to enjoy Radiohead after so many listens?

sweet_nothing 03-03-2009 06:48 PM

Well actually its probably the same reason theyre my fav band, theyve done so many styles of music from album to album it's hard for me to get bored with them. From the avant garde jazz National Anthem, to the acoustic pop ballad of High and Dry, to the electronic Idoiteque, to the drum driven There There, to the hard rock sounds of Just, Radiohead never bore me.

Primal fucking Scream man. You need to check them out, trust me.

sweet_nothing 03-03-2009 06:56 PM

I did, but nothing took. I'll give em another listen though.

dac 03-03-2009 08:27 PM

I don't feel like copying all of the stuff but I have over 3k Radiohead listens, and my top 2 tracks are Street Spirit and Idioteque. Sweet Nothing has more plays than me though. It's hard to tell what my true top track would be though, as many of my listens are of live recordings so they don't get counted in.

sweet_nothing 03-03-2009 10:44 PM

I just got 4000 Radiohead plays in my last fm library w00t w00t. My 4000th track was How To Disappear Completely. And do the people in Radiohead's shoutbox piss anyone else off? I mean srsly its ok if they mess around once in awhile but to do so every hour leads me to believe these people have no lives.

Farfisa 03-03-2009 11:18 PM

People need to get their facts straight before they want to flame Radiohead.

sweet_nothing 03-03-2009 11:35 PM

Miley Cyrus disses Radiohead

Miley Cyrus has spoken out against her one-time "favourite" band, Radiohead. In an interview with a Portland radio station reprinted by Pitchfork, the teen star vented her anger at the band for snubbing her at this year's Grammy Awards.

The singer, who claims Radiohead are "the reason I love music", was less than amused when the band turned down an invitation to meet her backstage at the Los Angeles event last month.

Apparently, when she extended the invitation to meet the band, Radiohead's team told Cyrus's people that "the band doesn't really do that."

"The reason I'm in this business is to make people happy," she said, implying that Radiohead aren't. She added, "I left 'cause I was so upset. I wasn't going to watch. Stinkin' Radiohead! I'm gonna ruin them, I'm going to tell everyone."

The fact that she invited them to meet her, and got offended when they declined comes off as so self-righteous, as if she's so important that she's offended when someone turns down a chance to meet her (though I think, like the article says, the band just doesn't do that overall). Maybe I'm just reading too much into it, but that's the impression I got.

I also find it a little strange that her reasons for doing music is to "make people happy," whereas I assume a group like Radiohead are doing it because they love to write music, not just to be crowd pleasers. I think that in and of itself says things about what it is she values about being involved in music. I guess I'm one to respect the artistry of things, and don't really like the idea of people doing things simply to be likable and to sell their product.

But, good luck putting them out of business Miley. Who would want to listen to them after they turned down a chance to meet the great Miley Cyrus anyways?

maybe because she is a child.

Still doesn't change the fact that she's a spoiled brat that needs a knock upside the jaw.

I wish they did agree to meet her though. And make sure someone filmed it.

:laughing: nah I'm 19 she's 16... in my books that's fine.

scottsy 03-07-2009 11:10 PM

While I agree with you it isn't that much of an age difference... be careful man! Technically they get ya on the whole underrage thing, which sucks, of course...

dac 03-08-2009 01:09 PM

16 is age of consent in most states actually...

Back to Radiohead though, does anyone else mildly dislike True Love Waits?
