Radiohead Headlining 2017

[stuartbert two hats]

Should have had the live version of Like Spinning Plates.

The lack of anything from Pablo Honey at number 9 is a disappointment.

Sometimes I think the writers of The Guardian don’t spend nearly as much time memorising and utilising our Radiohead in-jokes as we do.

Why can't we just have Radiohead headlining again?

It would certainly help offset the general feeling that the greatest moment in my life has already happened in 2017.

That library thing is cool! There’s actually so much stuff there, tonnes of gigs that I didn’t even know were recorded. I ordered a t shirt.

[Ashl]

Top 10 is pretty well thought through, all have good reasons however 11 Sail to the Moon... hmm.

I think Street Spirit would be a bit higher than 12 in my list something like

1. Reckoner

2. How To Disappear Completely

3. Street Spirit

4. Weird Fishes

5. Karma Police

6. Idioteque

7. Paranoid Android

8. Exit Music For a Film

9. Nude

10. The National Anthem

11. Identikit

Yeah but you see the big problem here is that you've once again forgotten Let Down and so cannot be taken seriously.

Maybe I should give it more of a listen outside of the album context.. its in my top 20 most played on last.fm  but its not a go to listen as an individual track.

Four minute warning and amazing sounds of orgy the big ommisions from that list for me 

[SwedgeAntilles]

My payday bank balance just took a hammering.

That guardian list is fairly decent. Sail to the Moon is a lovely track, and nice to see some of my other favourites like Where I End and You Begin and Like Spinning Plates make it.

My ordering would be very different though, and the likes of Polyethylene, Harry Patch, Spectre and the Daily Mail would be nowhere near my top 40, considering some of the omissions.

My ten:

1. Reckoner
2. Idioteque
3. Karma Police
4. Pyramid Song
5. Nude
6. EIIRP
7. How To Disappear Completely
8. Let Down
9. Fake Plastic Trees
10. Burn The Witch

To be fair, even the band seem to have snubbed that one from recent setlists. Suppose they couldn't just play all of In Rainbows though...

[JSmurphy]

Codex would make my Top 10 now, I think. Magical song.

Four minute warning? Really?

A top ten without Paranoid Android?

That’s because I prefer the ten songs I’ve listed.

[Peter North]

quite a few omissions, when they're putting things like scatterbrain and packt on their list...

 

off the top of my head:

last flowers

let down

you and whose army?

the tourist

It's one of their most underrated doings for me. It's probably the closest thing to a camp fire song Radiohead will ever do. I remember hearing it for the first time in Blackpool and been really disappointed it didn't make the album. I think it  would have followed on really nicely after all I need.

There are so many classics to choose from though everybody's list is going to be different.

might interest a few on this thread ....

I think they find it too difficult to play live, that's why it got the cut

Would that be because its too ''fast''? They just move on from songs and will then revisit them again 10 years later.  They at least were considering some deep cuts when they soundchecked Go To Sleep and Dollars and Cents but never played em on their last tour leg.
