View Full Version : Don't you think Thom Yorke enjoys being Thom Yorke at least 10% more than he lets on?
i mean, christ, he is precisely where every band/recording artist dreams of being - i.e. a critically untouchable/ multi million selling godhead. i totally bought that he couldn't let himself believe let alone enjoy the praise OKC received but now i'm starting to get suspicious. what would be really interesting would be if radiohead (yes, I KNOW this will never happen) released something that was less than rapturously received.

well i guess when you're on top the only way you can go is down. i'd much rather be in corgan's position, where he's still got to work hard to prove himself constantly. that would be a far more interesting way to live.

whatever
everything i've seen of thom yorke lately shows him to be enjoying himself immensely.
JapanAlex 07-04-2008, 07:17 PM i think in rainbows is the first album (ever) that he's having fun
^pfft. pablo honey was fun.
why the hell are fans so concerned for guys like thom, bc, whoever? they're in awesome bands making great music that they love and getting their ass kissed daily. its probably that kind of cloying concern from fans that gets them miserable, if anything.
JapanAlex 07-05-2008, 12:05 AM ^pfft. pablo honey was fun.
not really - it doesn't have the passion of in rainbows (imo imo!)

How can you even suggest that Thom isn't the most humble man on earth. I suppose next you're going to say that radiohead isn't the best band ever?
TheDeuce 07-05-2008, 07:57 AM ^pfft. pablo honey was funny.
fixed

Oh, my bad.

HTTF still got reviews most bands will kill for.
aztec litany service 07-05-2008, 11:46 AM eh who knows
on one hand they've achieved what every [well, most] bands aspire to
on the other, the expectations of such greatness could be a burden for some ppl
it shouldn't really bother them much imo, cause as long as they do sth decent ppl will say it's great
