Is Radiohead Prolific Enough?

.. for a thread? Can we talk Radiohead?

My ultimate favourite

Saw them live last year and they were sadly really disappointing. Their album, a moon shaped pool, just sounded to me like breathing, moaning, and pots and pans banging. And even worse live 😢

Bad luck

It's a reminder to me to not forget to live. Like an alarm bell (yes that's in the lyrics) when I'm stuck in a restrictive, demanding space, that I need to try to bust out lol

Awww, you love them too! You understand. People mistakenly think they're depressing.

I've been listening to them since Pablo Honey, though lately not so much for their newer albums. The misconception that they are depressing is based on a superficial perspective and usually stated by people who don't actually listen to their stuff. (i.e. "I hear it but I'm not listening").

It's like they are passive aggressive most of the time and people don't get the Libra's way, the Libra's message.

One of my favorites...



I don't just love it for the sexual, intoxicating, dubious beat of the drum. I feel this is as physically sexy as Radiohead has gotten.

However, they deliver a powerful message like that of a hypnotist:

"Just 'cause you feel it

Doesn't mean it's there"

I'm was so sick with this song obsession, I had to fuck a Libra, that was playing obvious games with me, to it.

During my Saturn Return, this was my lullaby. This song was my sanity. It was on repeat all night for many months, if not a year. I feel truly blessed for this song, it's title...

‘Everything in its right place’ is probably one of the most boring songs in history.

I houseclean to it... both literally and figuratively. And, my babies help with enthusiasm as they love the depth of their mom.

I taught my babies with music. It soothes an erratic mind.



The repetition is the depth of meaning. Sometime we need to clean up our relationships and boundaries.

Look someone used "The Shining" aa the video. Yes, they understand!!! They used the right parts too!!!!

You know what? I need this song right now but not too much. Thank you, right on time.

It's worthy of full lyric posting:

Transport, motorways and tramlines

Starting and then stopping

Taking off and landing

The emptiest of feelings

Disappointed people, clinging on to bottles

When it comes it's so, so, disappointing

Let down and hanging around

Crushed like a bug in the ground

Let down and hanging around

Shell smashed, juices flowing

Wings twitch, legs are going

Don't get sentimental, it always ends up drivel

One day, I am gonna grow wings

A chemical reaction

Hysterical and useless

Hysterical and

Let down and hanging around

Crushed like a bug in the ground

Let down and hanging around

Let down

Let down

Let down

You know, you know where you are with

You know where you are with

Floor collapsing, falling

Bouncing back and one day, I am gonna grow wings

A chemical reaction (you know where you are)

Hysterical and useless (you know where you are)

Hysterical and (you know where you are)

Let down and hanging around

Crushed like a bug in the ground

Let down and hanging around

Radiohead is THE music of Pluto in Libra youth. They outlasted ALL of it's grunge competitors, standing by us, still holding our hands as we all group up together.

Radiohead has beem faithful.

I understand what you’re saying on an intellectual level but my Aries rising made me wanna bang my head against the wall everytime I heard it. I’d rather some of their other songs.

How can you stand that song?

I just described how in my original response. However, I welcome opportunity to continue.

Think it may stave off PTSD. Hmm? A mind that has been pushed to it's limits trying piece itself back together.

This was one of my coming out songs. It also helped me cope with some of my romantic rejections that I received. Imagine being ghosted twice by the same person - this was my go-to song.

Ahhh, I see it in the lyrics love. Amazing!

Can't find the full original version, but this will do.

Radiohead "Optimistic" is another favorite. I feel that this song helped me climb the corporate ladder. It's hypnotic so that under stress it pops up in my mind. Even his vocalese are like breathing exercises for anxiety.

To me it's like a grandparent explaining corporate america thus, acknowledging my fears and helping accept it all... breaking my naivete.

The drum beat is like motivation and courage to get the fuck in there... steady, steady. And, I swim in some shark infested waters.

I went to a Christian graduate school so as to learn to walk along monsters without becoming one.



The lyrics are so poignant, I would listen to it at work and feel coached, mentored, and counseled.

Flies are buzzing round my head

Vultures circling the dead

Picking up every last crumb

The big fish eat the little ones

The big fish eat the little ones

Not my problem, give me some

You can try the best you can

You can try the best you can?

The best you can is good enough

If you try the best you can

If you try the best you can

The best you can is good enough

This one's optimistic

This one went to market

This one just came out of the swamp

This one dropped a payload

Fodder for the animals

Living on animal farm

You can try the best you can

You can try the best you can

The best you can is good enough

If you try the best you can

If you try the best you can

The best you can is good enough

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Ah ah ah

Oh oh oh

I'd really like to help you, man

I'd really like to help you, man

Nervous messed up marionettes

Floating around on a prison ship

You can try the best you can

You can try the best you can

The best you can is good enough

You can try the best you can

You can try the best you can

Dinosaurs roaming the Earth

Dinosaurs roaming the Earth

Dinosaurs roaming the Earth

Ah ah ah (oh oh oh)

Ah ah ah (oh oh oh)

Ah ah ah

Oh oh oh
