Even Radiohead's 8th best album would be an album any other band wishes they could make. Personally, I got Kid A as their best.
gonna check that one out next!
@@fckboyfuneral LETS GOOOOOOOOOO
That’s such a good way to put it. Ive always said ranking Radiohead albums was one of the hardest things to do and everyone looked at me weird but this is like such a good comparison because they’re all so amazing in like their own unique way.
🙏🙏🙏🙏@@fckboyfuneral
and I love that!! @@Miyoak
Let Down is one of the best songs of all time. I listen to that last verse-chorus on like infinite repeat when I listen to this song lol
such a great song!
I always imagine stars being born, the universe expanding, plants sprouting, and flowers blooming, The music literally blooms throughout the song. It's definitely one of my favorite songs on the album.
I get stuck between "Let Down" and "Karma Police." You could listen to them back-to-back on a loop for hours and feel NO passage of time. It's weird.
@@fckboyfuneral You know.. you know where you are... where...😢
Bouncing back and one dayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Johnny Greenwood is the main musical composer with Thom Yorke , he has composed film scores and for some major films . What you should know is that they do all this live when in stage it’s incredible. It’s not just computers in a studio .
It can't possibly be understood in one listen. Listen to it 100 times and it will keep revealing its layers. You can go SO deep with this album if you spend time with it
It sounds like you're embellshing but the instrumentation really has SO many subtle touches. Shout out to the secondary guitarist Ed O'Brien for so many haunting sounds and backup vocals.
Also, your reaction to Fitter, Happier is spot on. You hit the nail on the head
"That song sounds like flying" is possibly the best description of Let Down I've ever heard haha
hahaha I swear that's how I felt!
Your enthusiasm is really infectious! When you started the music and it was through the speakers I thought "aww I don't think I'm gonna be able to listen to this" but then an hour later, looks like I did!
Honestly I was a little worried when you restarted Climbing Up The Walls knowing how intense it gets at the end, so it's cool that you got so much out of it that it ended up being a fav. This whole reaction felt super personal and I really appreciate that, so thanks!
aww im so happy you stayed along!! :) and man, climbing up the walls really touched my soul! def in my top 3. means the world to me that you enjoyed the video
A Radiohead song that I can really connect with is “Bulletproof…I Wish I Was” from their album The Bends.
Also, The Tourist is one of their most underrated songs in my opinion. FANTASTIC tune. And that vocal performance was a one-take 'guide vocal' by the way - which they kept. Coz it's f****ing amazing.
It's their best song ever.
Agreed. The community barely talks about this song but it's one of their finest. If their final concert ended with it I'd be very happy.
"That song sounds like flying."
That's a perfect description for LET DOWN.
I was 18 when this album came out, and had just got my first full-time job, in a record store, a busy branch of a big chain. It truly was the soundtrack to that year for so many, capturing the zeitgeist of late 90s Britain, but especially for me. I was struggling with so many things; my identity as a person, disenchantment with the world, with adulthood, relationship heartbreak. I felt lost, scared, alienated, numb. This album just captured everything so precisely that it felt like my own neuroses had started a band in my head. It remains one of my most cherished albums.
I wish I could go back to the first time I listened to Ok Computer
Exit Music was on an episode of Black Mirror which may have been where you heard it
yes!!! that episode with that crazy boy lol
Welcome to the family.
happy to be here!
First listen of OK Computer with a glass of wine by your side, sounds like heaven to me. Your charisma is infectious, great reaction
thank you 🩷🩷
Loved this so much. Really emotional to see someone hear this their first time and resonating so deeply with it. Thanks for sharing!
I love this reaction so much!!!! I love how you feel the music 💜💜
thank you so much!! music is everything to me lol
i love your reaction to no surprises, personally that song helped me go through my lowest points in life and it means so much to me
11:33 Yes! Exactly. This is the 'Bohemian Rhapsody' of Radiohead. :)
It's rightfully regarded as the greatest album ever made. Utter masterpiece.
Muse, Dire straits and Pink Floyd might have something to say about that. And that's just British alternatives to that claim.
@@Tass... Muse don't even have anything in the conversation. Pink Floyd, sure.
@@simonread8713 In your opinion but the facts are...
Muse have many multi platinum albums. 176 award nominations with 70 of those winning. And are widely regarded as the best live performing band on the planet today. So...
@@Tass... but we're not talking about figures. We can point to endless cookie-cutter pop stars who've sold lots of albums and won lots of awards.
Look, it's a subjective thing. You like what you like, I like what I like, somebody else probably thinks a Justin Timberlake album is the greatest. Enjoy what you enjoy.
@@Tass... Bro really said Muse unironically
Absolutely loved this! I'm excited to hear how your thoughts have changed by the time you react to their next album 😁
earned yourself a sub, absolutely in love with radiohead rn and this video delivered all of the reactions this album deserves. In Rainbows is still absolutely my favorite right now. It is definately a comfort album for me
🫶🏾🫶🏾
i think In Rainbows might still be my #1
10:22 "What is happening?" was my EXACT reaction when hearing this song/album for the first time. I love how unpredictable radiohead is! Great video, I hope you react to kid A in the future :)
thank you!! i’m definitely gonna do that one
It's funny that you compare Paranoid Android to Bohemian Rhapsody. I've heard also from others that Paranoid Android is the 90's equivalent of Bohemian Rhapsody for alt-rock. I think that was a very good comparison. And yes, this entire album is amazing! Loved your reaction!
This is the most relatable reaction I’ve seen to this album. I had the exact same reaction. Can you please do the bends next ? Another amazing album by them. I appreciate how open you are about your mental health too , these songs make us feel a typa way that can’t really be explained but it’s definitely rooted from our anxiety and need to escape.
absolutley!! I wanna do that one so bad so it may come after Kid A!! and yes you are so right about the escape thing...much love
girl i literally love you this is the best vide’ i love this album and it changed my life i am so happy when i see other people who connect with some of these songs so deeply! keep doing what ur doing bae it’s working :3
ok i can’t type but it’s fine
this reaction made me so happy. you get it fr thank you for this
You showed up on my recommendations!, I enjoyed your reaction to Ok,Computer,and subscribed, enjoy ing the voyage of the younger generations experiencing the music I grew up on,warms my heart,thank you for your enthusiasm ❤️😊🎵🎶
I love watching people's first reaction to Paranoid Android
i love your energy omg
thank youuu
"This song (Let Down) sounds like flying"
That's sums it up pretty neatly, I think.
Loved your reaction to this masterpiece, I wish I could listen to it for the first time again, I’m lucky enough to have seen this live at Glastonbury in 97’ there is no other band like Radiohead, simply stunning xx
This was one of the better reactions I've seen to this album. It annoys me when reaction videos are a half the duration of the album, but this had the perfect amount of editing. I also appreciate you putting in time stamps.
These are some albums that I think could make some interesting reactions, if you haven't listened to them already.
Danny Brown - Atrocity Exhibition (2016)
This is a super dark, and experimental hip-hop album with some of my favorite lyricism ever. Danny's voice can be off putting for some, but I personally love it.
The Microphones - The Glow, Pt.2 (2001)
This is an indie folk album with a lot of amazing genre blending and super lo-fi production. Just a warning though, it is extremely emotional.
Swans - Soundtracks for the Blind (1996)
This is about as inaccessible as an album can get. It's disturbing, weird, and VERY long (It's almost 2 and a half hours long), but if you're able to get into it, then it's some of the most mind-blowing music out there.
Black Midi - Hellfire (2022)
This one's also super experimental and chaotic, but it's more fun and less of an emotional rollercoaster like the other three.
thank you so much!! I will try to get to these they sound super interesting and right up my alley :)
Swans would be crazy
Really cool and REAL reaction - thanks for being so in the moment and open. I heard this when I was 21 when it came out and the first listen I knew I'd heard my favorite album yet and ever, and 25 years later it remains true. As you become more familiar and comfortable with the lyrics, it will feel less frantic and overwhelming and sink into your being and it'll be with you forever. "Kid A" is the next album they did and it is SO DIFFERENT it is crazy - equally genius but so experimental it is hard for a lot of listeners (myself for sure) to vibe with initially but if you are digging the sounds of the future, that album is even more unreal - it defies all genres and is it's will be it's own thing eternally just as this album is - but Radiohead makes a point to try new sounds every album on all 9 albums - you can trace the evolution if you know them all and look back, but you can experience them in any order you like and find something magical in each one). That being said, this one here is special - the only album I compare it to is "Dark Side of the Moon" by Pink Floyd - I bet more comments will say the same. It has the same impact. Great tunes surrounded by mood and sound and atmosphere and makes you both uncomfortable while wrapping a warm blanket around you. OK Computer is about how fast things were changing in the 90's (I am so lucky that was my decade for music - it was epic in every genre) - alienation, disconnection, technology, globalism, paranoia - yet hopefulness, but hopefulness all of us as people while we need each other and we need a little help always, need to strive to ensure for yourself in the face of all that struggle, internal and external, you remain balanced through human connection. That has been true through all time but this album remains so beloved because it articulates that concept and all the hurdles while doing it with such amazing songs and a sound that shimmers through time without constraint, it is just the best. Thanks for sharing this! Peace from a fellow Pisces //
hey fellow pisces!! i love your comment so much because i feel like we both think then same about this. i also adore DSOTM. I want to get into more Pink Floyd soon! ❤
Your reaction for Climbing Up the Walls almost broke me. That's me, also a Pisces when I listen to that one.
my favorite album ever. love your reaction
It was so amazing watching you absorb this music. The video for No Surprises is very bold, worth a look.
I'll check it out!
I really enjoyed this video and I’m really glad you loved this album. You made a lot interpretations about a lot of these tracks and I’d like to say you nailed it pretty well. Had a lot of fun watching this keep doin ya thing ❤.
thank you so much! happy you had a good time watching
Kid A is next and very different but a masterpiece.. loved your reaction
kid a is next for sure!!
I’m loving your reaction to this!!!! I love Radiohead!!! Would definitely love to see you do more reactions to their music!!
I also recommend Portishead!!!
Growing up in the 90s in the UK and managing to see Radiohead, Oasis, Blur, Pulp, Suede, Manics, OCS many times on tour I feel soo lucky! Great reaction btw ❤
thank you!! ugh i’m so jealous of you rn i wish i was in that time lol 😊
Ayyyy this is what I watch reaction videos for. I love seeing someone get it the way I got it the first time I heard it. ESPECIALLY a song like Climbing Up The Walls 😌
goatedddddd song!!
One of my all time favorite albums will love it forever
Paranoid Android is like no other
Literally blows my mind every time
Its seems strange on the first listen, but when you get the feelings, is hard to stop.
Btw, it would be cool to se your In Rainbows reaction
I hope to see some more Radiohead from you in the future!
I had this album on cassette when it was first released, played it to death, cemented my love of this band forever.
Wonderful reaction - almost a trope that Radiohead is for depressed teens but you're coming at it with great energy and finding the joy in it all.
thank you so much!! and I can see that trope for sure LOL
I would say music for adults who are old enough to have dealt with real grief and had to learn to deal with it.
"I feel like this album is about to ruin my life"
Exit music for a film waiting around the corner like a mugger lmfao
I love that you made all the same faces I did when I heard this at 13. I got this, and a Godzilla box set for Christmas changed/ruined my whole life. My condolences, it looks like you've caught it too.
i LOVE your energy
thank youuuu😊😊
i think it was the wine lmao
This has to be the most random Radiohead reaction I've seen on The Tube. It's perfect. Also, FWIW, this album came out as I was recovering from my car accident (and all the paranoia that had been building up since I graduated from university) so it spoke volumes to me as well.
i’m happy you’re okay!! and thank you❤️ hope to do more soon
what a great initiative
This is amazing love❤❤❤❤
love the posters!
thank you!!
Loved the video. Gotta admit that no surprises hit me deep big time
Dude you fucking GOT IT this was such a fun watch!!! :)
thank you 🩷🩷
This is brilliant, subscribed!
Awesome, thank you!
My favourite album on the alternative psychodelic rock for sure
The drums on climbing up the walls 👌
This is probably my favourite reaction to an album on CZcams. To watch someone physically feel the music in the same way you did, like when I first listened to it is the closest I’ll get to experiencing these albums for the first time again. Real reaction, subscribed 👌🏼
omg thank you so much🫶🏾🫶🏾 it was a crazy experience i cant wait to hear more of their work
exit music was in a black mirror episode and it wrapped up the story perfectly. i absolutely love that song.
The Verve's "Urban Hymns" was another classic album released the same year. It's not as well known as OK Computer, but it packs an emotional punch.
"I must be feeling low"
"I talked to God in a phone box on my way home"
might gotta give it a listen because i love The Verve’s ‘A storm in heaven’
I second this. An album that can go forgotten but is brilliant from the same time .
Just a few seconds in and already clicked like because I love lists!!
hahahah gotta have a list!!
exit music (for a film) was used in one of the seasons of the umbrella academy. not sure if thats where you heard it before or not but when i saw it while watching I was very surprised.
this album really does something to you the first time you hear it and it’s something you’ll never forget
oh, btw? Thom York dedicated OK Computer to the lead singer/writer of Cardiacs "OK Computer wouldn't have been made if it wasn't for Cardiacs and Tim Smith"
hmmm now i gotta check them out!!
Fantastic 🔥!
You’re all over the place and I love it! 😂❤ Subbed!
Thanks for subbing! and yes I'm chaos all the time lmaoo
fantastic reaction, cant wait to hear your opinion on motion picture soundtrack from kid a
im so excited for this one
You should listen to more of Radiohead’s catalogue, Moon Shaped Pool being my personal favorite.
i’m doing Kid A next!!
I will always argue to the death that this is, and always has been Radiohead's best and most impactful album. In Rainbows is a very close second. I was 14 when this album came out and it literally blew my mind. I still get goosebumps every time I listen to it, even 20 years later. Also, I think Thom Yorke is everyone's husband. He's such an adorable man, and HIS VOICE. And Subterranean Homesick Alien is still my favorite Radiohead song of all time. This album was underrated when it came out(IMO), and now in hindsight it's so far ahead of it's time. It doesn't matter when you experience this album, it's going to be relatable, and magical.
exit music for a film was in black mirror. dont know if it was the show you were referencing but it could be.
I love that wrote out list on spiral notebook!
We have the same 4-5 songs that are super impactful, Aitbag, Subterranean, Let Down, Lucky, Climbing Up The Walls,, No Surprises . Thom understands hurt and searching for way out.
he really does!! and omg my notebook has soooo many albums i have to get to lol
Amazing reaction. Thank you.
No problem 😊
In rainbows next!! Very emotional album
You should absolutely check out the rest of Radiohead's discography. Trust me it will be a wild ride. My personal second favorite after ok computer is hail to the thief. Also, I think its kinda cute how you get all flustered and excited when youre talking about stuff lol. Maybe you should also listen to the full song and then give your comments after, so you can appreciate the song fully and then have the full picture aswell
Subscribed faster than an Airbag can deploy, loved this.
haha thank you!! welcome:)
Exit music for a Film is from the soundtrack if Romeo and Juliet, with the leonardo de Caprio. Great film too!
I really didn't expect to watch it for a whole hour with these heavily cut songs and no bass at all. 😁 But I actually couldn't stop watching, because of you. Your energy and expression is very charismatic. And I love the way you experience art with your whole heart. Yes, this album is about your life (and maybe Thom Yorke IS your mother, just kidding), but it's about my life in the 90s too. That's the magic of art. It transcends and elevates. And just to put this in perspective: When living in the 90s, "OK Computer" didn't come as a total surprise, because their album before that, "The Bends", already pointed in the same direction. What came as a total surprise was their album AFTER this, called "Kid A", because they just refused to do a sequel of "OK Computer" and completely re-invented themselves, which was a genius move.
thank you so much for watching 🥰🥰
it really is magic!! i loved this album so much
Thanks for the beautiful heartfelt reaction, you're obviously a great person 😉
Wow, thank you so much ❤
The classical band playing paranoid android is very beautiful. Would be a very good reaction. Thanks for the upload, when the going gets weird, the weird turn pro 👍
ur so real + amazing reaction
thank you :)
I love this reaction. such a great way to share and reminisce and find new things,, you def must do the 'From the Basement' series. its mostly in rainbows songs but all live in the studio, mixed and presented by their producer, the wizard Nigel Godrich. doesn't matter if you've heard the songs before, the performances are mesmerizing and flawless and will give you a chance to see the whole band at work, of which Thom is just 1/5 of a team of master technicians of mood. since its yr theme, start with Weird Fishes!
thx for the good hang, hope u keep going.✌🤞🤘
Great reaction!
Thank you!! 😁
There's lots of footage of them 'From the Basement'. They have a house they use as a giant studio. It's incredible to see them at work. Well worth a look at the magic as it happens. 'Down is the New Up' on piano. 😉
Wish I could hear this again for the first time. They were way ahead of their time with this album. One of the greatest of all-time.
You're the perfect person for this album
Same with Moon Shaped Pool, I instantly think of listening to it on my way to Chicago on the plane 😂
Funny you should say you could hear Let Down as playing over a montage, because The Bear first season finale uses it over a montage but its actually a very uplifting scene where everything is coming together after so much terrible shit happening lol had me crying my ass off lol
Notice your My Bloody Valentine record on your wall and I was like oh what she likes shoegaze!?? Then minutes later you mentioned your a big fan of shoegaze music which is pretty awesome 💯🔥
Pretty cool review, personally I've always liked In Rainbows more overall but it's interesting hearing people's opinions on these songs cause it's a really diverse album
in rainbows holds a very special space in my heart!
Glad i had this music as a teen.. Glad i have this music today.. Glad.. I have this music when im dying.. And standing on the edge..
Ty for this reaction
ur welcome
This album is a masterpiece. I can never get tired of Radiohead. In Rainbows and OK Computer are my favorite. If you think in context of when the album was released you can better understand the message about technology. Airbags were still relatively new, so an airbag saved his life, that was kind of a new thing still. I'm glad you discovered this wonderful band.
Kid A is by far their best in my opinion. Everything In Its Right Place is SO GOOD!!!!
“I’m not meant to be here, I’m meant to be somewhere else” Yeah Heaven.
You should listen to OKNOTOK which is the reissue of OK Computer plus a few B Sides which are incredible
Thom does amazing solo work. There's a video of him doing 'Analyse' at the Mercury Music Awards on here. I must've seen it 100 times. Just him & a piano holding a room of music 'experts' in the palm of his hand. He creates such an atmosphere. It's easy to find. It would be a good little reaction. I love Harrowdown Hill too, it's about the mysterious death of a politician who opposed the Iraq war. His album is a classic. Best male voice in music.
i love him so much
Great reaction
thanks!!
This was a treat, such a cozy video to watch. You got a new sub for sure, I hope you one day check out more of Radiohead's discography, perhaps "In Rainbows" next. Either way any music you do I'll be excited to watch!
Harp states before she starts listening, that she has heard In Rainbows and A Moon Shaped Pool…
fair, im not too big on the order in which you listen to music@@SatanDynastyKiller
missed that bit, well thanks for taking the time to tell me@@SatanDynastyKiller
thank youu❤
Great video!!! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and feelings. This album came out when I was 17 and helped me find the understanding to my anxiety, my distress. It took me to read more about capitalism, and how work routine, institutions and all the stuff I wasn't aware of was taking me into depression. Sorry for my English! Greetings from Argentina, the land of wine, soccer, mate, and tango haha!
hahaha hiiii from the usa!!! thanks so much 4 watching 🩷🩷
love the nails, is it the polish that tyler the creator released?
no its just press ons from cvs lol Kiss Brand I think
i saw this video this morning before going to school, the first seconds of subterranean homesick alien got me crying. this album is my whole life
that song gets me every time as well!! I hope you have an amazing school year, kill it
@@fckboyfuneral thank you so much! it'll be very hard but i'll manage to survive thanks to thom yorke's voice maybe haha
@@fckboyfuneral i'd love to see you react to Songs of Faith and Devotion from Depeche Mode which is one of my favorite of all time too, this album and this band deserve more attention and respect haha
