Latest / Deprogrammed Music Podcast / Championship Edition - Radiohead Part 3
Transcript
- 0:03No pleasantries. Just blood.
- 0:05Radiohead championship edition. Yeah.
- 0:09You know, everybody's still up in my house, so I can, I can do
- 0:12a little bit of loud, loud stuff before everybody goes to sleep.
- 0:15So yes, here we here we are part three of Radiohead Championship
- 0:20edition and let's hop right in. John, what were you looking at?
- 0:25Obviously, aside from just eating out songs, what were what
- 0:29are we looking at for song choice here?
- 0:33Yeah, it's basically it's Pablo Honey, right?
- 0:36Like Pablo Honey had to go somewhere and it ended up going
- 0:43up against In Rainbows here. And the wild card here I think
- 0:46is going to be the the B sides from the bends.
- 0:50Like there's fourteen of those things.
- 0:52And some of them are are very very good and very, very classic
- 0:56songs that that a lot of people like.
- 0:58So I'm curious to see like almost kind of treated that as
- 1:02as an album unto itself because some of those I think could
- 1:05compete with with what's on the bends and what came after as
- 1:07well. And then got the the stuff from
- 1:10the com Lag EP. That's, you know, not the
- 1:14remixes and the reworks, but some of the original stuff
- 1:17that's on com lag that hail to the Thief air.
- 1:19So. Got a good mix of everything,
- 1:21you know, going back to from the very beginning up until up until
- 1:24In Rainbows. I mean we saw OK computer kind
- 1:26of dominate Group One, we saw kid a kind of dominate group 2.
- 1:29That makes a lot of sense. We'll see if we'll see if In
- 1:32Rainbows can continue that. So Brian, let me guess all Pablo
- 1:38Honey here. I mean completely, entirely.
- 1:42I had to think about what great songs I had to cut from that
- 1:44album. No, I I completely changed.
- 1:49Well, I didn't completely change my list today, but I I
- 1:51completely I I I made more cuts based on what happened last time
- 1:57where we kind of figured out that one album's gonna dominate
- 2:00anyway, so that there's no point for me to have equal
- 2:02representation for anything, you know?
- 2:04Like, I think I'm, I'm fine tuning how I'm playing the game
- 2:08as we're going, so mine is gonna be very front loaded with a
- 2:12certain album that I think is my emotional favorite.
- 2:14But. We will get there when we get
- 2:16there, but I agree with the B side, there's an absolute
- 2:20uncuttable for me on this list for sure.
- 2:23That's a B side, so I might fight somebody proverbially
- 2:28tonight. Who knows?
- 2:29I know what song it is. Yeah, I bet you do.
- 2:35All right, So and Brian mentioned he kinda changed his
- 2:40list on day of. Did you make any changes after
- 2:46last go around? No, I went and did my whole kind
- 2:50of re listen to all the songs to finalize my choices, but I
- 2:55didn't really have a lot of back and forth on this list.
- 2:59There was only you know a couple songs that were maybe like
- 3:02fighting it out to be on my list and but pretty early on like,
- 3:06you know I look, I was looking at the list and being like
- 3:08there's a bunch of songs in here that I know aren't gonna make
- 3:10it. So it kind of narrows it down
- 3:12from me into some other ones that are a little bit more
- 3:15competitive. But I think so far this has been
- 3:17the least painful list for me to put together there.
- 3:19We go there. We go, yeah I.
- 3:21Got the least amount of songs that I love dearly, so let's
- 3:24continue that trend. Any any hurt for you here, Ben?
- 3:27Or or was it pretty straightforward?
- 3:30Well I just wanted to give a special shout out first to Anne
- 3:33cuz it's her birthday today and happy birthday.
- 3:37And thank you I I. Forget that.
- 3:44So kind of fitting that it's gonna be a painless one for you
- 3:46today, I. Hope so.
- 3:49I, yeah, you know, I think last week, I think the big.
- 3:52If there was a controversy, it was, it was polyethylene.
- 3:55And I think the thing that I went into this week was kind of
- 3:58going, all right, you know, I my sensibilities have skewed away
- 4:02from rock over the years. But I kind of recognized that if
- 4:05if I were a more rocky Radiohead fan, polyethylene would be one
- 4:09of the best of that type. But this week I was kind of
- 4:12going, you know what? Let me let me just get rid of.
- 4:16Any sort of loyalty to rock music and just kind of go all
- 4:19right if I'm if I just ignore that as a contender, what do I
- 4:24think the best songs are in this collection And it meant that I
- 4:27dropped a couple and for a few more on SO.
- 4:29I'm curious to see how it shakes out.
- 4:30But I do think I know what the B side is, and I'm also on the
- 4:32same page about that one being uncuttable.
- 4:34There we go. I like the sounds of that.
- 4:37Kat, you've been kind of a wild card here.
- 4:41Did you cut the cut the brake lines again or is this was this
- 4:44straightforward? I you know I am.
- 4:48You can ask Ben and Kylie. I'm not a good gauge on what is
- 4:51break lines. What is a well liked song, what
- 4:55is you know good list just kind of doing what I'm doing.
- 5:02I think I've come up with a a list that's is pretty solid.
- 5:05I think I also am in the same boat for the uncutable B side,
- 5:10because that's like. The one that is my uncuttable B
- 5:13side is one of my all time favorite Radiohead songs.
- 5:16With this with this list I I had the easiest amount of time.
- 5:24There was one wavering moment between my 15 and 16 track, but
- 5:32other than that this one came pretty pretty easily and I did
- 5:38not touch this list. At all since I've made it, you
- 5:43like the sounds of that, that's decision.
- 5:45That's decisive, yes. Were you as decisive, Kylie, or
- 5:50did you kind of make some changes since last go?
- 5:53What's so funny is that this is the one that I changed the most,
- 5:56but not for the reason that you would think, which is that it
- 5:59was just so hard for me to pick because I had so many favorites.
- 6:02I am just widely ambivalent about my bottom five.
- 6:06I don't think any of them are going to make it into the next
- 6:08like path, you know, into the other round.
- 6:11I don't think they're very competitive long term.
- 6:13So I kind of don't. It was just kind of like, oh,
- 6:15what do I like? Whatever, I'll just throw this
- 6:18out on here. My 10 are really solid.
- 6:21But also side note, I'm like praying, praying that we all
- 6:26have in our minds a different B side.
- 6:30And then it just becomes bloodshed when it's all
- 6:32revealed. Like.
- 6:35Filming. Really.
- 6:36Truly, I will be off base, like my entire worldview.
- 6:39My centering will be shattered if it's not this song because
- 6:42this is the only thing I have left grasping.
- 6:45We're all molasses right now. That's the one, yeah.
- 6:48But so. We're all molasses.
- 6:50That's guys. It's not Banana Co.
- 6:53There you go, it's definitely a banana.
- 6:55It's kind of like I. Go home.
- 6:57My mom, man, I gotta go home. No.
- 7:02But if it is the one that if I'm on the same astral plane
- 7:05wavelength as everyone else that I agree about that these guys
- 7:08we'll get there. So Peter, I unfortunately you're
- 7:13getting the obligatory it's it's creep 15 times, right?
- 7:16Oh, of course, I mean. No, for this one, like I
- 7:21mentioned the chat, I was like, OK, Pablo Honey is a fine album,
- 7:25but like putting it up against In Rainbows.
- 7:28Like, come on, like how like even the B sides from the bends
- 7:34are like, you can see, like, them stepping up their game from
- 7:37Pablo Honey. And I think like a lot of those
- 7:40B sides are way better than a lot of the songs on Pablo Honey.
- 7:44But I didn't really make any changes in my list.
- 7:46I'm sticking to my guns on this one.
- 7:49All right, well, now we jump in and see.
- 7:54It sounds to me like this could be could kind of go swimmingly,
- 7:59but I don't know, man, it could go anyway.
- 8:03John, where do you want to start?
- 8:05All right. I've been been thinking about
- 8:07this all day and it was very interesting.
- 8:08Listen to listening to all of you guys talk about your Choice
- 8:12and everybody kind of brought up.
- 8:14The the one beside there so let's just let's rip off that
- 8:17Band-Aid and this this is a song that I feel like could be a
- 8:23highlight of of nearly any of their albums if they had chosen
- 8:27to put it on there. It's stuck around in their in
- 8:30their live show which says something to.
- 8:33I just think it's, I think it's fantastic.
- 8:36I think it has probably an outside shot of making the final
- 8:40top ten if it makes this list. And I have refrained from saying
- 8:44that, trying not to jinx things, but I'm throwing that out there.
- 8:47I'm gonna start off with talk show host.
- 8:50The universal sigh relief. Yeah, that, that.
- 8:54That's the one you. Yeah, I I don't think we have to
- 8:57say it. So is that everybody?
- 9:02Are we doing the rounds, or are we just all mutually agreeing
- 9:05that we pick this off? I did think the.
- 9:07Rounds. Should make it easy.
- 9:09Yeah, we will. Then know.
- 9:11Well, OK. Are there any Nos?
- 9:14There we go and we'll go back to the rounds starting next.
- 9:16I I knew this was the one cuz this is the one on the original.
- 9:20Episode uncutable. Yeah, that Brian was like, yeah,
- 9:23by the way. Yeah, this is this is the top
- 9:26three of all time of theirs for sure for me.
- 9:31First song I added when I was making this playlist.
- 9:34Yep, same lines. Yep, Yep.
- 9:37Without question. Oh my God.
- 9:39I thought I had the had it already brought up, but
- 9:41apparently I don't. My God, this.
- 9:45Is one of my favorite songs to play on guitar when I warm up
- 9:47too. There it is this.
- 9:51This technically has two versions, but both.
- 9:53Are yes, yeah. And this is on the Rome and
- 9:58Julian sidetrack, which is like, I can't even tell you how
- 10:00important that fucking field is. And soundtrack.
- 10:02It starts out so quiet and simple and just keeps building
- 10:05and keeps building and keeps building.
- 10:08I want to. It's one of my favorite rip off
- 10:10the can of all time. Yeah, all.
- 10:14Right. So we got that one in the books
- 10:19and again from this, from everybody, yeah, from this one
- 10:23going forward we will do the rounds.
- 10:25So, Brian? All right, I'm gonna go.
- 10:29And since since I'm already happy no matter what happens
- 10:33now, I'm gonna go with all I need, all right, and.
- 10:42Yep, it's on my list. Great song, Ben.
- 10:47Yeah, absolutely. Love this one cat.
- 10:52I actually don't have it on my list.
- 10:54God already Kylie. Yeah, I do, but it was one of
- 11:01my. It's actually my 15th, my most
- 11:05bottom song. OK, Peter.
- 11:09I've got it all right. And John?
- 11:13It's actually my least favorite song on In Rainbows and one of
- 11:16my least favorite Radiohead songs.
- 11:18So no. Wow.
- 11:20Jesus. All of there any brother?
- 11:21Coming at the hot take? Just just saying.
- 11:25Amen. That's nuts.
- 11:29Well, I mean, it's still got five, though, so it's it's it's
- 11:32still alive. It ain't dead but.
- 11:33It sounds. Like it wasn't it wasn't all I
- 11:35need right now. But does sound like that might
- 11:38be a hard line on John, so and. Well First off I want to say
- 11:46that Pablo Honey never stood a chance against In Rainbows and
- 11:50some of these Benz besides. But there was one obvious pic
- 11:55from Pablo Honey for me. And it's blowout all right, Ben.
- 12:00Yeah, huge. Amazing.
- 12:03I was gonna say blow out. If you didn't say blow out,
- 12:04yeah, it's a big guess, especially having seen it in
- 12:062018. That song holds up alongside all
- 12:10their new stuff. It is awesome, Kat.
- 12:14I wanted to so bad. It was my like one of my last
- 12:17cuts, Kylie. Yep, Peter.
- 12:24Yeah, I've got it, John. Yes and Brian.
- 12:31It's the only one I've got. There we go.
- 12:34Yeah, 66 ain't bad as we know. All right, Ben, where you wanna
- 12:39start? I was so dead set on Blowout.
- 12:45I'm gonna go this is I think there's there's two songs on In
- 12:49Rainbows that for me, I think are the big.
- 12:52I think there's lots of really great songs, but there's two in
- 12:54there that I think are sort of stand out classic songs.
- 12:56So I'm gonna go weird fishes for one of them Alrighty Cat.
- 13:01Yeah, too easy. What would you guys say if I
- 13:03said no though? Bitches.
- 13:07It's an easy. Yes, that was easy, Kylie.
- 13:11That's a yes for me for sure, Peter.
- 13:15Absolutely, John. Definitely, Brian.
- 13:21That question I mean come on and and.
- 13:25No, I'm kidding. Yes, you you teaser.
- 13:34Here we go there. We go This was so weird too,
- 13:41because they were opening the shows with Arpeggy and then it
- 13:45showed up at the end of this other song, all right.
- 13:52Phil Soway is such an underrated drummer.
- 13:55Oh my God, seriously. We could do you could do 4 hours
- 14:03alone on Phil Soway is being underrated.
- 14:06I. Would love to do a top ten Phil
- 14:08drumming moments? That's.
- 14:10My thing. Honestly.
- 14:13All right, cat, where do you want to?
- 14:16Yeah. I I think I also want to go for
- 14:20another softball pick. This one has existed as a
- 14:27Radiohead song for many years. People have known of this song
- 14:31and then it finally makes its appearance on In Rainbows.
- 14:35But I'm gonna go with Nude. All right, Kylie.
- 14:40Oh yeah, for sure. No brainer, Peter.
- 14:44Yep, John. Yes, Brian.
- 14:50Yep, and. Big yes.
- 14:54Oh my God and Ben. No question.
- 14:57Got it. All right.
- 14:59Thank God. Can we list it as failure to
- 15:04receive repayment? We'll put your house at risk.
- 15:10Not bad. Not a bad start.
- 15:12Y'all. Not a bad start.
- 15:15All right, Kylie. Yeah, I'm going to go with
- 15:20another B side because I'm curious to see it's kind of my
- 15:24one of my weird wild card picks. But I just really like this
- 15:28song. When you were saying the B sides
- 15:31being a little bit stronger than Pablo.
- 15:35I think this is 1. So Michela Dora.
- 15:36I don't like that sound, Peter. No, no.
- 15:44All right, John. Yes, Brian.
- 15:51Yes, I do actually. Yes, and.
- 15:56Yes, easily my favorite non talk show host Ben's beside.
- 16:02Yeah, Ben. You know, I think they're about
- 16:065 or 6 here that I think are all equally good besides, but none
- 16:09of them I think are even close to best and so this is not up
- 16:12there for me and judging by the sound cat made.
- 16:17I'm so, I'm like, I feel so like, vindicated right now.
- 16:20I was so worried that that was only gonna like be the only one
- 16:23with Mickey Adora on my list, cuz I put that one as my #15.
- 16:27I was really, really having a hard time making that decision.
- 16:30So thank God, really happy. About that, there we go.
- 16:33That's a 5, so it's still it lives.
- 16:36Nice. Amazing.
- 16:38All right, Peter. I think this will be a softball
- 16:45choice, but some of y'all are white, are wild cards, so I
- 16:48don't know Reckoner. All right, Reckoner for Peter.
- 16:55John. Yeah, definitely.
- 16:58It's one of the most underrated songs in their catalog, Brian.
- 17:02Yeah, I wholeheartedly agree. And one of my favorite drum
- 17:05lines too. And.
- 17:08Of course I love it, Ben. Yeah, this is Top Five Radio
- 17:13ahead of all time for me. Easy.
- 17:14Wow, cat. Yep.
- 17:18All right, Kylie. Absolutely, for a top five
- 17:22Radiohead all time. Hey.
- 17:28Who the boss? There it is.
- 17:29Oh my gosh. And that Gnarls Barkley cover is
- 17:33great, too. And this is the song where they
- 17:37got the album title from. Which I didn't know until later,
- 17:42where they're like, you know, he's singing In Rainbows in the
- 17:44background. I was like, really?
- 17:48All right, that's a pretty solid first round there.
- 17:51John, where do you want to go next?
- 17:55Yeah, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna say fuck it and go
- 17:58back to Pablo. Honey, how about stop
- 18:00whispering, all right, Brian. I cut that because I've decided
- 18:06that I'm just gonna load up in rainbows because I want to go
- 18:09with the better option. So I cut that one that was the
- 18:12only other one that I had from that, but I cut it cuz I wanted
- 18:16to be more in my post on here. There you go and.
- 18:20I wanted it on my list so bad. I have a big soft spot for that
- 18:24song, but no, it didn't make it on my list, Ben.
- 18:28Nope. Cat.
- 18:32No, there's there's other Pablo songs that I, I, I like stop
- 18:37whispering. But there's other Pablo songs
- 18:39that. Would have gotten on the list
- 18:42before it Kylie. No.
- 18:49Peter, I'm, I'm fine with that. That's one list we have to talk
- 18:52about later. Can you save them?
- 18:55Well, I guess technically no, but is.
- 18:57It no, I don't have it. It's a it's a good song, but
- 19:00there's there's a song on Pablo Honey that I think is stronger.
- 19:05Cough, creep. Cough.
- 19:10All right, Brian. Shit, I wasn't ready.
- 19:18I'm gonna go. I think they're opening and
- 19:21closing tracks are usually some of their best.
- 19:23And I'm gonna go with Videotape V I DWO all right and.
- 19:34Yes, definitely, yes. All right, Ben.
- 19:37Yeah, I think that's just utterly devastating and classic
- 19:41song cat. Yeah, a Ripper, Kylie a.
- 19:48Big yes for me. Love it, Peter.
- 19:52Of course. And John?
- 19:55Put it on the list. Unanimous.
- 19:57Oh my gosh, yes. It's what?
- 20:00My rainbows. I was winning.
- 20:02I play it on a piano almost every time I sit down on one.
- 20:07Halfway there, folks. Oh my God, it's fucking love
- 20:10those chords so much. And Tom wanted this to be the
- 20:13first song in the up, and the rest of the band was like,
- 20:16seriously, like. I mean I think, I think I have a
- 20:21bit of a hot take on that cuz I think, I think Body Smatcher
- 20:23should open that record. I like the way it is.
- 20:30I think they know, but. I think it's perfectly
- 20:33sequenced, yeah. OK.
- 20:37All right. So Brian was videotaped and I
- 20:42think I want to throw it over to some of the Hail to the Thief
- 20:45besides because those were on this playlist as well and I
- 20:48don't think we picked any. So my favorite, beside from that
- 20:52era, is gagging order. Ben Yeah.
- 20:56I. Love this song.
- 20:57I'm so happy. I'm so happy you chose Ben.
- 20:59Yeah, I this is gorgeous. I love this one.
- 21:02It's fucking Where Your Heads in The Cave on Nick Drake tribute.
- 21:06Nice, Kat. Yes, Sir.
- 21:09Well, love the song, Kylie. Great lyrics.
- 21:14No. Peter.
- 21:18I've got it. John.
- 21:21Yes, absolutely. And Brian?
- 21:25I got it too. It's actually my second song
- 21:28that went through. It was like a guarantee that he
- 21:30goes into it. Wow, I'm fast.
- 21:33There we go. Wow.
- 21:34Gagging of order of all things. Like I didn't think that would
- 21:37be the. 6th. That's that's.
- 21:39Strong, yeah. I'd be hitter.
- 21:41Well, I mean, it's not, it's that strong.
- 21:42It's like that's that's the place where it is for me.
- 21:45But like I I hadn't got dating rainbows in the list yet.
- 21:48You know what I mean? It was.
- 21:49It was considered for kid A right back when it was called
- 21:51Move along. Yeah.
- 21:54Sounds about right, yeah. All right, Ben.
- 22:01I wanna go another B side from this era.
- 22:03This is like a a a personal fave.
- 22:06I I certain a few people are gonna have it.
- 22:08Paper bag writer all. Right cat.
- 22:11Ohh, you took me left field here.
- 22:13I thought you were going for a different one.
- 22:15I don't have that one on there. I do love that.
- 22:18One fuck cat. No, you.
- 22:20You. Probably know which ones I have
- 22:22from calm leg but. Yeah, I do, but I can't believe
- 22:25this didn't. Make it Kylie.
- 22:29Yes, definitely yesterday. Peter.
- 22:33Nah, I don't have it. John.
- 22:36No. Brian.
- 22:40I love it a lot. I think it sounds more like
- 22:43Johnny Greenwood's scores for PT Anderson films.
- 22:46Honestly, it's great. So that's a yes.
- 22:50Yeah, I got it. And and no, unfortunately, there
- 22:56were two other calm lag tracks that beat it out for me.
- 23:00What on earth? Into the Go into a paper bag.
- 23:04Into the bin. All right, cat.
- 23:09OK, well before I got the rug pulled out under me because I
- 23:13really thought it was going to go a different direction, I
- 23:15thought Ben was going to say I'm a wicked child.
- 23:19That's that's a calm lag. That's one of my favorites on
- 23:23the calm lag. Not my favorite favorite, but is
- 23:28I really like that one a lot. No, didn't make it for me.
- 23:34Peter. No, sorry.
- 23:38John. No, can't save it.
- 23:42Brian. That's OK.
- 23:43Nope. Official no.
- 23:49Me, no. And 1st oh, sorry, yes, it's on
- 23:53my list. I yeah, sorry.
- 23:55It's still not gonna make it, but I love it as well.
- 23:58I wish they'd do more weird bluesy shit like this.
- 24:01And last but not least, Ben. Yeah, I love this squirrelly
- 24:04little thing. I think this is great.
- 24:07Not enough. It goes into the bin all right,
- 24:11Kylie. Yeah, I'm gonna bring it back to
- 24:16In Rainbows, but I'm curious to see if this is gonna be another
- 24:21unanimous or contentious fast art.
- 24:25All right. Peter, no, sorry all.
- 24:31Right, John. No.
- 24:35Brian. It's literally one of two songs
- 24:38I cut from this album cuz I had to cut something.
- 24:42Yeah, and it's on my list. Ben.
- 24:48Yep. And he still life cat.
- 24:52Yep, I like this song. I was like, this one's gotta
- 24:54make sure. I gotta make sure this one stays
- 24:56in my playlist. It doesn't.
- 24:58It's it's low on the totem pole right now, but it's it's got a
- 25:01little bit of breath to it, so I don't.
- 25:04Know what actually what would happen?
- 25:06All right, Peter. I'm gonna stay on In Rainbows
- 25:12and Speaking of Phil, so way being a good drummer, Jigsaw
- 25:16falling into place. There we go, John.
- 25:20Absolutely fucking Lutely. Brian.
- 25:25Yep. And yes, it's very close between
- 25:29this and weird fishes for my favorite song in the record.
- 25:34Ben. Nope.
- 25:39I just. There is.
- 25:40A million other bands that could do this song to that.
- 25:43To me this is like a good song, but it is a, it is such a like
- 25:47generic Radiohead song. I man, I can't.
- 25:49I can't go for it. Really.
- 25:51This could be mad about every. Track is harsh.
- 25:54I'm really glad I'm not the only one that was also gonna leave
- 25:57this one off my playlist. That answers the question for
- 26:01us, Kylie. Yes, I had it.
- 26:05Although I absolutely agree with Ben's assessment, it didn't rank
- 26:09super high for me. But yeah, I mean, it's like a
- 26:13really good song. So there you go.
- 26:14There you. Go.
- 26:16It's got five though, so. All right.
- 26:19John, where do you want to? Go.
- 26:22Let's go back to the bends. Besides, and this is one that I
- 26:27always think is from. It's OK computer error because
- 26:32it kind of leans and kind of hints at that style.
- 26:36Permanent daylight? Brian.
- 26:41And hold my late cuts, yeah. And didn't make my list, but I,
- 26:47you know, re listened to it for the first time in ages while I
- 26:50was like fine tuning my list and it's really great.
- 26:54I'd forgotten how great it is but still didn't make it.
- 26:56Unfortunately not. Enough, Ben.
- 26:59The last ones to get cut were all the Ben's be sides except
- 27:02for two, and this is this is one of them.
- 27:05This is one of the two that made it.
- 27:06That got cut. I'm sorry that got cut.
- 27:08He's. Gonna say wait.
- 27:10That's. Phrasing Cat.
- 27:13This was also a late cut, unfortunately.
- 27:16Oh, Kylie. No, from the moon.
- 27:20And Peter? Yeah, sorry, I don't have it.
- 27:25Oh wow, two of mine have had only one.
- 27:28John. I know, right?
- 27:31I feel for your friend. Alright, Brian.
- 27:38It's not bad. I mean, it's fucking
- 27:39heartbreaking sometimes. I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go with
- 27:43the whiff from the same era. It's more personal.
- 27:48Thing for me, Louis mistreated. Oh fuck.
- 27:55And that's such a good track. No, I didn't make it, but I did.
- 27:59Again, I did enjoy revisiting it.
- 28:01Yeah, I loved a lot of these, these sides I've forgotten
- 28:05something from, honestly. Ben.
- 28:08Nope. Cat.
- 28:11Oh my God, it's such a great track.
- 28:14I am so glad I got a shout out because I was like heartbroken,
- 28:17shattered to take it off my list.
- 28:20But I love, Louis, love, love, love that song.
- 28:23It's like I get in the car and sometimes I have like really,
- 28:26really early shifts and I'm pissed off as hell about it.
- 28:30And I play that song and I'm like, you know what?
- 28:31I'll make it. I'll be fine.
- 28:34It's cool all. Right, Kylie.
- 28:38No, I feel like I'm kind of like nasing a lot of things because
- 28:42it's like this. This would be one of my favorite
- 28:44songs from any other band on Earth, right?
- 28:46But when you look at Radiohead and you look at best, it's just
- 28:48like, no. Get it, Peter?
- 28:55No, I don't have it. It was between this and another
- 28:59Ben's B side and I was went with the other one which I will talk
- 29:03about later. All right.
- 29:04And John? No, I don't have it.
- 29:07I still have two other besides from the bends, but this is not
- 29:10one. Look again.
- 29:12Here I am being mistreated. It's fine, Louis.
- 29:15Mistreated again. Louis mistreated again.
- 29:21I knew this wasn't going through, I just wanted to give
- 29:22it a shout out. Alright, God, such a fun track.
- 29:29And I only have three songs left on my list for what it's worth.
- 29:34Really. Yeah, I.
- 29:35Gotta count mine now I am gonna go for a pretty obvious pick in
- 29:40my opinion. Body snatchers all.
- 29:43Right, 123. All right, Ben.
- 29:49Yeah, this was a late ad for me, but Yep, it's on there.
- 29:53Cat. I am blinking one for yes.
- 29:57Kylie. Yeah, it's.
- 30:00It was like my #2 on the head included to be.
- 30:03I think it's like one of those things that's so it's
- 30:05essentially radioheaded. That's kind of one of the things
- 30:07I look for a lot like could another band do this?
- 30:09Is another band doing this? No.
- 30:11There. You go, Peter.
- 30:15Yeah, it's a banger. I got it.
- 30:18John. Yes.
- 30:21And Brian? Yep.
- 30:24There we. Hey. 6.
- 30:30I'm just saying different world. This opens a record because this
- 30:33is the only something that sounds like this on this fucking
- 30:35record. So a different world.
- 30:38This works as an opener. Was that six or seven?
- 30:41Or I'm sorry, seven, so it's. Yeah, I thought it was seven.
- 30:44Yeah, I was. Gonna say I didn't hear anybody
- 30:46say no. It's unanimous.
- 30:47I meant that's six unanimous. Oh, gotcha.
- 30:50So alright, so body snatchers, I lost track of where we are.
- 30:58I think it is Ben's turn. Yes.
- 31:02I've only got 3 left as well and I'm gonna go for I think the
- 31:05most contentious and rainbows pick and say House of Cards,
- 31:08which I think is a very beautiful song that has grown on
- 31:11me a lot over the years. All right, cat.
- 31:15I I didn't not add that one. I like that one a lot.
- 31:19I do. I just.
- 31:21I'm surprised at the The Last in Rainbow song I have.
- 31:27Hasn't been talked about yet, but I think yeah, it didn't make
- 31:31the cut. I think we know what that is,
- 31:32Kylie. Yeah.
- 31:36I quite don't like this song. I don't know.
- 31:41Peter. No, I mean, I like it, but I
- 31:45think it's my least favorite on In Rainbows.
- 31:49John. No.
- 31:52Bent or I'm sorry, Brian, I saw a B.
- 31:56It's it's a deeply personal song to me.
- 31:58Like, I could relate to it in a lot of times in my life, but I
- 32:01knew nobody in the fucking world was gonna have it unanimously.
- 32:04So I cut it just for strategy, honestly.
- 32:07But I it hurts. I fucking love that song so
- 32:10much. Hell yeah.
- 32:12And and yes, I really love House of Cards.
- 32:16It's the only song from In Rainbows that I've never gotten
- 32:19live before and I'm gonna be mad about it until Tom, your
- 32:23personally fixes that for me. I wish we could trade life
- 32:26experiences. I was glad you paid you and
- 32:28I'll. Sign our House of Cards to you.
- 32:31I wonder if I saw that or not. I'm gonna check myself this
- 32:34right now actually. All right, it's got two, so it's
- 32:37dead in the water. But at least you weren't alone,
- 32:39Ben. Okay.
- 32:44I have 5 left. This one I so this was the song
- 32:50that I chose over Lewis and I chose this one because
- 32:55thematically transport, particularly car accidents as a
- 33:00recurring theme in Thom Yorke's riding and I went with killer
- 33:04cars. I think this is a really great
- 33:07mix. I also love the Mogadon mix.
- 33:10I just enjoy killer cars. Kylie.
- 33:15No. I love.
- 33:16That's fair. I love.
- 33:18I love the matter of fact, Peter.
- 33:20I mean, what am I going to say? I don't want to like, totally
- 33:23yuck somebody, you know? I get it.
- 33:28I've got it. Hey, John.
- 33:33I did give it serious consideration, but in the end,
- 33:35no. Brian.
- 33:39Uh, no. But if if I didn't go back in
- 33:42front, load in rainbows, this is actually going to be a contender
- 33:45for like #15. There you go.
- 33:47And no, not even close to making my list.
- 33:52Ben. Man, I I fucking love this song.
- 33:56If this was like a personal faves, this would probably make
- 33:59it for me. But as best Radiohead song, it
- 34:01didn't make the cut. But yeah, special shot, I love
- 34:03this. I'm glad you picked it cuz I I
- 34:04think this is an underrated song.
- 34:06This is just a great fun song. There you go.
- 34:08It's got two dead in the water. Unfortunately, Kylie.
- 34:15I am. It's another kind of experiment
- 34:18to see if anyone else has this. I kind of don't have a lot of
- 34:21confidence. In it.
- 34:22But this is my only other Pablo honey kick besides blow out.
- 34:26It is you. Peter.
- 34:31Yeah, I've got that. That was my last Pablo Honey
- 34:33one. And John?
- 34:36No. Brian.
- 34:39Nope. Ann No.
- 34:43Got pretty close though. Ben.
- 34:46You know, if I had more than one Pablo song on here, this would
- 34:49have made it. There you go and cat.
- 34:53If yeah, this is my favorite Pablo song, but alas, it did not
- 35:00make it. All right, so let's do a check,
- 35:03cuz we know Ann and Ben I think each have two left now.
- 35:07If I'm correct, I have one left. Oh, OK.
- 35:10I have two. OK.
- 35:12Where you at, John? I've got three left.
- 35:15OK, so cat is out at 4:00 I hope.
- 35:20I have 4:00. Kylie and Peter, are you guys
- 35:24roughly around the the 2:00 to 3:00?
- 35:26I have two. I got three, OK.
- 35:29All right. So, John?
- 35:33I'm gonna stick with these these Ben's besides and throw out.
- 35:37How can you be sure? Brian.
- 35:42Nope. And no, that's like potentially
- 35:47my non creep least favorite Radiohead song.
- 35:52Wow. Ohh Ben.
- 35:55No, I mean I I I love almost all the Ben's.
- 35:58Besides, equally I all I listen to them all the time in the car.
- 36:02This is a great one, but it didn't it didn't make it for me.
- 36:05Cat. Nope, I didn't have this one.
- 36:08Shout out to PJ Harvey though. She's a real one.
- 36:12Always, Yeah. Always.
- 36:16Kylie, can you save him? No.
- 36:19No. All right, Peter.
- 36:24Yeah, no, sorry. John.
- 36:29I see how this is going. I'll see how this is going, we
- 36:31can be not sure. Look at.
- 36:33You I. Mean.
- 36:35To be fair, there are a ton of Ben's B sides here.
- 36:39Oh, it's a full album, yeah. Yeah, all.
- 36:44Right, Brian. All right, well, I guess I'm
- 36:48gonna get this out of the way. 15th step.
- 36:52And Yep, that was my last song on my list.
- 36:56Spoiler alert, I picked every, every song from In Rainbows.
- 37:00Just the whole album. She sure did.
- 37:03I can. I see.
- 37:04I seize it. Yeah, Yep, it's up there.
- 37:11Cat. Yeah, Sick opening track.
- 37:14I love the sampling in this song as well.
- 37:17Really fun when the when the bass comes in though too.
- 37:19Oh my God. Yeah, yeah.
- 37:21It's a great song. Talk about underrated.
- 37:26Kylie. Oh yeah, definitely.
- 37:29I have really fond memories of them testing and and trying to
- 37:32figure it out in 2006 and trying to get the audience to clap
- 37:35along to the beat and like probably at least 60 or 70%.
- 37:38Yeah, he's just not being able to get through with them.
- 37:43Peter. Yeah, all.
- 37:46Right. And John?
- 37:49Yes, If it wasn't so late, I would have rounded up a chorus
- 37:52of neighborhood children to to scream in the background.
- 37:55Yes, for me. Some of that S that S&L
- 37:58performance from this too. Ohh my fucking God that's so
- 38:01good. Wow 7 Unanimous this This
- 38:06conversation leg just got brutal.
- 38:10That's an actually an interesting thing.
- 38:12I didn't know that he had a or that they had a group of kids
- 38:15come in. I thought that they sampled that
- 38:17sound bite. So that's pretty sick.
- 38:18I did not know that. It was on the what performance,
- 38:22was it the Vma's or something when they did it with the it's?
- 38:25On the Grammys. Grammy.
- 38:26Yeah, the Grammys for that. Like the marching band.
- 38:28Yeah, Ohh, the Grammys. I was thinking of SNL, but it
- 38:30was Grammys, right? With the with the other marching
- 38:32band. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 38:35Alright, so that's Brian Ann is out.
- 38:38I'm out. Ben, what?
- 38:41Do you have one left? I got one left.
- 38:43Alright. I I personally, I love that we
- 38:46all seem to have different Ben's B sides that we really connected
- 38:49with like lots of like 2-3 votes but but our individual faves.
- 38:54So this is one that for me is like, you know I think they're
- 38:56all really good. This is just the one that that
- 38:57stands out to me as the one that's most indicative of where
- 39:00their sound ends up going and has like the most atmosphere
- 39:03both arrangement wise and melodically.
- 39:04And that's Bishop's robes all. Right.
- 39:09That's a good pick. I didn't pick it.
- 39:13Kylie. Nope.
- 39:17Peter. I've got it.
- 39:19Hey, John. No.
- 39:24Brian. No all.
- 39:27Right. It's two.
- 39:28I feel like have a lot of people haven't felt the sting of A1
- 39:33yet? I don't think it's definitely
- 39:34not today. John's the.
- 39:35Only one. I've had three.
- 39:36Thank you. John's the only one today.
- 39:40No, I got. I don't.
- 39:41I know what Lewis did. They.
- 39:43Ohh yeah you sure did. Yeah, my bad, that was the only
- 39:45other one. Indeed.
- 39:46Today. All right, Cat.
- 39:50OK. I This one actually was one of
- 39:55the first songs I also put on the list.
- 39:57I held off on throwing it out there because I don't think that
- 40:01anybody's going to have this on their list.
- 40:05But I love India Rubber. I love the atmosphere.
- 40:08I think the having Johnny's laugh is extremely funny.
- 40:14It's it's not necessarily exactly where they go in terms
- 40:19of, you know, their future sound, but that kind of
- 40:23experimentation I really appreciate about that song.
- 40:26Just got a cool sound, cool vibe.
- 40:29Kylie. No.
- 40:33Peter. No.
- 40:37John. No.
- 40:39And again, I I love that all of these random ones are getting
- 40:42taken, but I did not have that one.
- 40:44Brian. Actually that that was my last
- 40:47one. Ohh.
- 40:49Alright, I love it too for for the same reason.
- 40:51Like it just it's so good. It goes off in like a a a
- 40:54Beatles direction. Like with like Harrison
- 40:58experimenting with like Indian BC chip, you know?
- 41:01So just for clearing, I definitely kind of got like a
- 41:04little bit of a white album. Yeah.
- 41:07So Brian, Inn and Ben are all done, right?
- 41:10Yeah. OK, All right, Kylie.
- 41:15Yeah, this is my last one. And I guess we're all like, like
- 41:18we're talking about putting one Ben's B side up for
- 41:22consideration. And I'm guessing this will get
- 41:25very few votes, if any. Trickster.
- 41:28Yay. All right.
- 41:31I've got it. Oh.
- 41:36TRL back. The ball Kylie.
- 41:37Peter. John.
- 41:40Yep, that's my last one. Love it all.
- 41:41Right. And then cat was a yes too,
- 41:44right? That is a yes so.
- 41:46That's four. So John's out, right?
- 41:49Kylie's out, Peter are. You.
- 41:53I actually I picked India over that one.
- 41:56That one must make my list. Peter, do you have any left?
- 42:02No, Trickster was my last one. OK, so, so Kylie.
- 42:07You stand alone. Do you want to dump yours out
- 42:09just so everybody? Can I have one more as well?
- 42:12Okay. Just I don't have any all.
- 42:15Right cat. Just for fun, Yeah.
- 42:21I am citizen insane. I love this song.
- 42:25Truly obsessed with this song. That one of kids had to make
- 42:28good. Songs that might have had a
- 42:30better shot at my list. I was hoping that you'd like
- 42:34you'd pull like a wild card and be like creep.
- 42:36I don't. I don't think I'm familiar with
- 42:39that one. Honestly, I don't know how that
- 42:41one goes. It's one of their like I if I
- 42:46was going, ah, this is the thing.
- 42:48I love Pablo honey as what Pablo honey is.
- 42:51But like when I think of Radiohead, I don't go to I don't
- 42:54go to Radiohead for Pablo honey. It's like Pablo Honey is its own
- 42:59band. It exists as Pablo honey and
- 43:01then that's its own thing and like creep is really fun.
- 43:04You is fun. Blowout's great.
- 43:05I like vegetable and yes I can like a lot of those are great.
- 43:09So I, you know I I have a lot of love in my heart for Pablo
- 43:12honey. But this was the only time that
- 43:14I was actually kind of thinking with my brain and not ooh cool
- 43:17noises and and didn't put Pablo Honey on my list at all.
- 43:23It's it's it's an album of like the sound is like a band finding
- 43:28their way. It's like.
- 43:29Yeah, very, very clear. Smith's influence, Very clear.
- 43:32Pixies influence. And they're trying to still
- 43:34find, like, their own spin on things, yeah.
- 43:37So well done folks. You have 7 Unanimous Here Talk
- 43:42Show Host, 15 Step Body Snatchers, Nude, Weird, Fishes,
- 43:46Reckoner, and Videotape. Yeah.
- 43:49My God. Let's stop right there.
- 43:50We're good track. Yeah.
- 43:52Pretty much. So there there's three spots
- 43:55left on the two sixes are blowout and gagging order.
- 43:58Do we just put those through? I would be.
- 44:02Very happy with putting those through, yes.
- 44:04Yes. OK, so.
- 44:05I don't care about gagging order, but I don't.
- 44:08I guess I won't argue. It's fine.
- 44:09OK, so that. Takes question is.
- 44:11What's the last one? Right, so the the fives that are
- 44:16alive, Maki adora all I need. Jigsaw falling into place.
- 44:21Those are the fives. And then there's two fours if if
- 44:25anybody really wants to stick up for them, The trickster and
- 44:28false start. I'm tempted to say Mikila, Dora,
- 44:35Mickey, Adora. Just for the shits and giggles
- 44:37of it. But I think chicks I I do really
- 44:40like Mickey Adora. I think it's really.
- 44:42Yeah. I.
- 44:45Mean obviously I want all in comparison to the in rainbow
- 44:47stuff. Yeah, so John says Jigsaw.
- 44:53I would also go with Jigsaw over Maquiladora, even though I do
- 44:56like it a lot. I think that the odds of it
- 45:00getting towards the final list are pretty slim and I do think
- 45:04Jigsaw has a better song also. Well, if that's all.
- 45:08I mean, neither of them are going to make it, are they?
- 45:10Fun, No, but it's terrible. The.
- 45:14Thing principal. I'm also voting Jigsaw.
- 45:18All right, so Ben and Cat were the two that two knows on
- 45:22Jigsaw. Is all I need out of the
- 45:25running? Is that gone?
- 45:27Not, not for me. It's.
- 45:28Not but. No, I've been, yeah.
- 45:31I'm a big. I would choose all I need over
- 45:32here of those, but I would, yeah.
- 45:37Yeah, I'd be happy with Jigsaw or All I Need taking that spot.
- 45:42I'm personally ambivalent over the Jigsaw versus All I need
- 45:46think is Fall Star, isn't it? For me, I think it's a stronger
- 45:50song, but I don't know, I feel like Jigsaw Live gets people
- 45:56going pretty hard. So I think on that account, you
- 46:01know, it's it's a really fun upbeat track.
- 46:03But but what does Upbeat do when we've already got 15 Step right?
- 46:11Or. Or body snatchers.
- 46:12More body snatchers. Exactly.
- 46:14Yeah, so I mean, I'll just throw it in for all I need if people
- 46:20are more passionate about all I need than Jigsaw, but.
- 46:22I mean, but but what does like, droning love songs have to do
- 46:26when you have talk show host to? Well, talk show host transcends
- 46:30all human beings. It's like the closest you're
- 46:33gonna get to Nirvana, you've ascended.
- 46:35I think great. Lyrically, jigstaw is stronger
- 46:39than all I need. Ooh, I don't know about that,
- 46:43but. I would.
- 46:44I think Mickey Adora is stronger lyrically than either of them.
- 46:47I. Would rather have Mickey, Adora.
- 46:49Yeah, all I need. I always thought the.
- 46:51Looks are so crazy. Yeah, so I was gonna say if I
- 46:56recall correctly, John said all I need least favorite and Ben
- 47:02said Jigsaw was. The least favorite.
- 47:04Yeah. Yeah.
- 47:07So Mickey Adora. Let's just do it.
- 47:08Mickey Adora is not gonna win anywhere.
- 47:10It's not gonna win. Yeah, I.
- 47:13Mean. I would.
- 47:14I would feel weird about. Letting maquiladora I go like.
- 47:17That jigsaw from Maquiladora, I gotta say.
- 47:19Yeah, like I love it, but it just feels wrong.
- 47:24I I think it feels fun and spicy and sexy.
- 47:27Right. It's, it's our.
- 47:28It's our well, on those grounds. Kylie, I think I got to side
- 47:31with you. So, I mean, you guys have all
- 47:36kind of asked this question, so let's let's address it face on
- 47:40like this is song #10. Chances are it doesn't.
- 47:45It doesn't. It doesn't get through right.
- 47:50Yeah. So which way do you go, John?
- 47:56Good. I love Jigsaw falling into place
- 47:58and it's it's a song that gets me like up and dancing around
- 48:02and every time it comes on it puts me in a good mood.
- 48:05But you guys are right, we do have that.
- 48:08We have body snatchers, we have 15 step, we have weird fishes.
- 48:13So my vote is Niki Adora all. Right.
- 48:17Let me ask you this instead of going all the way around, does
- 48:20anybody disagree with that assessment?
- 48:23I do. I think I'm just opposed to
- 48:26putting maquiladora on the listing interval.
- 48:30Hater how I. Love it, but it's the this is
- 48:35not where it belongs, I. Mean I'm gonna I'd be a
- 48:37hypocrite if I took a hard line against Maquiladora because I
- 48:40went for polyethylene last week when like objectively like 8
- 48:45stronger songs than that. But I recognize it's like a fan
- 48:47favorite one. I feel like in the same boat
- 48:50here, where I'm like Michaela, Dora is not.
- 48:52Drunk, so in my own, but also yeah.
- 48:54Let's keep going with like #10. It's wild card.
- 48:57Let's keep going on our streak. I'm just it'll be one.
- 49:01Easier one to cut when we get to the finals, so clearly it but.
- 49:06So we're still split. We've got nowhere.
- 49:12Let's just call it even and put creep as the tense song.
- 49:16No, God. I just.
- 49:18Want it? I'm really very.
- 49:19Proud of all of us. That's pretty funny.
- 49:23I demand a recount. Yeah, just for the sake of
- 49:26comedy. That would be pretty good.
- 49:30I know we're not here for comedy, but.
- 49:34No, we're here for resolution. Let's put.
- 49:37All right, so let's. All right, so the three between
- 49:41the three tell me which one is out.
- 49:43John Maquiladora All I need jigsaw.
- 49:45Which one's out? All I need is out.
- 49:49Brian. Jigsaw.
- 49:55Not for no reason to to. It's it's it's fault or
- 49:59anything. All right, and.
- 50:01Maquiladora. Oh, this is already going split.
- 50:04This isn't working then. Maquiladora.
- 50:10All right cat, all I need. All right, Kylie.
- 50:19All I need. And Peter?
- 50:25Makila Dora. Goddamn so.
- 50:29Then let's just put jigsaw through.
- 50:30Then that's what you mean to say, cuz.
- 50:33Yeah, only one jigsaw get the least, least.
- 50:37Just light, yeah. So all I need in maquiladora, I
- 50:40think each got at least two for sure.
- 50:44For each here. For each all.
- 50:46Right so jigsaw it is. Yeah, yeah.
- 50:49Science. Everyone's sleeping on citizen
- 50:55insane and that's fine. But I also like the transition
- 50:59from his low register to his high register in that song.
- 51:03So you guys put in rainbows through to the next round,
- 51:06basically. Yeah.
- 51:08Of course it's gonna be. It's gonna be. 70% of the year.
- 51:12Today you had Rich ramp host, yeah.
- 51:14So here we go. Talk show host, 15 step body
- 51:16snatchers, nude, weird fishes, Arpeggy Reckoner Videotape,
- 51:21blowout. Gagging order, Jigsaw falling
- 51:23into place. Well done.
- 51:26Yeah. Chuck, that was a that was a
- 51:28fucking cake wall compared to the next ones.
