OK Computer v The Bends

[Chromatic]

As with The Smiths, Radiohead did do one good song.

There's a banging one about a meter maid as well.

Long and winding road.
Now I do like that one.

NOOOO!

I'm with you obladioblada, (And I also love Lovely Rita, meter Maid) but this is one step too far!

It was dubbed "The Long and Boring Song" in our house. By my dad.

Nope, No joshing, I honestly do like that song.

Had an argument down the pub earlier, one I’ve had a few times before, The Bends v OK Computer. Best one?? Thoughts everyone please - I’ve stayed up all night playing along (badly) with both albums, twice!! Don’t often get the opportunity… confirmed my opinion but want to hear yours

for a person with an FZ avatar discussing radio(bloody)head, you have plummeted in my opinion

joking aside, I think my favourite radiohead album is Walking in the Light... oh no, that was Cliff Richard!

Radiohead had one giant generation-x hit (Creep) from a very patchy debut

It's true, Pablo Honey was a very ordinary album. I'd even forgotten I had it when I bought OK Computer. It was only after that, back tracking, that I discovered I already had it and bought The Bends.

OK Computer.

I loved both albums, OK Computer and The Bends years back. Though after reading this and digging em out of the crates then playing them I can only say they sound so dated and I don't think they merit the top 100 albums of all time.

Music has come a long way since them days and it just sounds all a bit dull compared to lots of music from the past.

Coldplay?

Coldplay?

Coldplay are derivative, MOR dad soft rock with absolutely nothing to say. They're not interesting enough to be able to hate them.

I concede to that.
