Speaker 2 (00:16):
oh, that's beautiful what do you call that?
Speaker 1 (00:19):
well, this piece is called lick my love pump ah, no,
seriously, thank you forlistening to the Greatest Nine
Hits.
I'm Chris and playing a mashupof the song Airbag and
electioneering from OK Computer.
Radiohead's 1997 album is myco-host.
(00:41):
Tim.
Thanks for joining us.
I hope a lot of fans arelistening.
Radio heads man.
We did the bends earlier thisyear and we're going to end this
season with OK Computer.
So this is going to be the lastalbum that we're going to do
(01:01):
this year.
We did the 90s, but in the nextyear we're going to do.
This year we did the 90s, butin the next year we're going to
be doing some other stuff too.
We'll do some 90s, 80s, 70s.
I think what we want to do iskind of mix it up and just kind
of widen and open the format ofwhat we can do, expect a mixed
bag moving forward.
We're happy that we're fouryears in.
(01:23):
It's exciting for us.
We couldn't be happier to dothis album.
We're pretty stoked about thisbecause we love Radiohead, tim
especially, and this is aroundthe time I think some of these
(01:44):
guys who do these interviews andwrite reviews I should say you
know, I think they nailed,nailed it with.
This is sort of like a post Britpop shift.
So, you know, you gotta thinkyou're in the blur era and then
you're kind of going into thelate nineties and this is a
little bit deeper and heavier.
And we could go on and on aboutthe intricacies of Tom York.
(02:10):
He's brave, he's articulate,he's intellectually honest about
just the unsettling feelingsthat we get that we can't really
put into words.
I mean, he's super poetic atyou know, capturing like those
awkward feelings in life and, uh, you know, and that's that's a
(02:31):
theme throughout the.
The songs on this album, all ofthem kind of relate back to
past experiences where he's kindof like, you know, I don't kind
of freaked out a little bit or,you know, know stuff like that.
But nevertheless we'll listen toall the songs, like we always
do on all of our podcasts, andthen at the end we'll rank our
(02:54):
top three non-hits, the hitsongs on OK Computer we're
talking Karma Police, par, nosurprises.
I think the rest of them willbe in the in the hunt for the
top three.
So I'm excited to listen towhat tim has to say.
(03:16):
Usually the albums or the songsthat he he does sometimes a lot
of times, are kind of a hint asto where he's going to go, but
not always.
So I'll be.
I'm uh, I'm intrigued.
I'm intrigued what he's goingto, what he's going to do, um,
but anyway, um, but I think thatthis is probably one of the
(03:39):
most critically acclaimed of theum, the different albums, you
know, of course they, the fanbase is incredible.
They're kind of like a Rush fanbase and a Phish fan base.
You know, tim's a Phish guy,I'm a Rush guy, of course, and
then many of you are diehardRadiohead fans, as you should be
, because you know, tom York ishe's sort of like the Neil Peart
(04:04):
or the Trey Anastasio kind of aguy.
You know the leader and a lotof the creativity emanates from
him, his ideas, his influences,et cetera, and it all coalesces
and comes together.
so you know, just so perfectly,so perfectly, and um you know
(04:31):
there's artwork um that had isvery like, has a lot of
symbolism.
There are just different, uhnods to uh that um what is in
there, it's uh.
Who was the artist for?
That anyway, I'll have to lookthat up.
I mean, that's what I'm saying.
I haven't really gotten thatdeep into it but, oh nice.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Well, this piece is called lick my love pump.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
All right, so well, he puts the guitar away.
We're going to get settled in.
We're going to listen to songs.
I'm curious.
Tim is so excited for this one.
He's got notes.
He can't wait to shareanecdotes, song facts.
(05:18):
We're going to do all that ohmy gosh.
First of all, how?
Speaker 6 (05:22):
are you doing, man?
I'm doing well here.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Good.
Speaker 6 (05:25):
Now buckle, buckle up .
All right, it's the law, orshould it be?
The law I don't know probablyuh, if you're tom tom york it
shouldn't be the law, becauseyou know um yeah yeah, you know,
a bunch of laws, a bunch of redtape for society here.
(05:50):
Yeah, this is, uh, you can'twait.
You know, even the album coveris like they did this sort of
collage, slash mixed media over,uh, this basic freeway.
That's sort of a story of howit divided the town and it was
(06:11):
sort of a hot-button issue whenit was built.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Yeah, and obviously, Well, it also is sort of a
depiction of, yeah, a dystopianworld.
You know, rampant, you knowthere's.
These are symbols of capitalism, consumerism.
The highways, social alienation, you know highways that cut
(06:36):
through big cities.
It disconnects us alienalienation it does, it alienates
us it alienates alienstechnology insanity shout out,
globalization shout out to therunners aliens shout out to the
(07:01):
aliens.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
Okay yeah, this just has everything.
It doesn't have everything.
It has the things that are asocial critique of society, I
should say in an angsty formatof musical brilliance.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Well, along that thought, the first song is
Airbag and we're going gonnastart with that and we should
probably, you know, without it,should go without mention that
this is about, you know, the caraccident that he was in right
with, uh, with an ex, and itjust kind of underscores, like
(07:41):
the fragility of life.
You know things are more randomand you know we're not as
secure as we think we are, kindof a thing.
It's kind of the idea accordingto song facts, that kind of
stuff.
Speaker 6 (07:52):
And when you're in a close collision with destiny,
you come out on top.
Well, you got to celebrate.
There we go.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Yeah, exactly.
Okay, with that being said, andaway we go, all right.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
I'll get my spacesuit , okay.
Speaker 6 (08:22):
Let's keep the peace, all right.
Keep the peace out there,whatever you're doing.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
Well, this place is cool, but I left my laptop.
That's the last time.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Jackknife juggernaut.
Speaker 6 (08:50):
Jackknife Juggernaut Reminds me of Halo Juggernaut.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
That's right.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
Neon is 10th on the periodic table.
One and zeros, friends, it'sall one and zeros.
Speaker 1 (09:15):

panic attack at a bar kind ofeverybody wants to talk to him
about his stuff and he's justlike tired and like this sucks
(13:24):
was.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
It wasn't he kind of like?
He was kind of like freaked outa little bit, though beyond
just like bored and tired yeah,because american la people right
most likely it's a cultureclash a little bit maybe.
For him I'm sure it would havebeen overwhelming, you know yeah
, you could be in jet lag.
You know you're kind ofdisoriented, you know, and yeah,
dealing with your fame and it'slike what's going on?
Speaker 6 (13:45):
Everybody knows you and you don't know any, Tom
already has a bad eye and it's.
It was probably twitching outlike really bad yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
So I mean, that was the inspiration for this next
one.
So this is a great song, thisis a hit.
Speaker 6 (14:02):
Loud noises, okay, okay, loud noises, okay, yeah,
johnny, on these crazy effectsthat he does.
Uh-huh, colin, ed, could you?
Speaker 5 (14:21):
stop the noise and try to get some rest.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
Simple lines intertwining and all the unbound
chicken voices in my head ohheaven, you're right, but my
point is.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
My point is you must take this fine cassava melon
over to him, Show him what yougot.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
but don't let him have it.
You gotta tease him a little.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
That's not chicken Foghorn's.
You got rooster.
That's not chicken Foghorn'shorn.
Look at Rooster.
You will be fast against thewall.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
With your opinion, which is of no consequence at
all.
Speaker 5 (15:44):
That's just like your opinion, man you look for the
person who will benefit.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Simple sound clips intertwining.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
You look for the person who will benefit and you
know I am the walrus, you knowyou'll uh, you know what I'm
trying to say.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
I am the walrus, I am the walrus, I am the walrus.
You're out of your element,donnie, that's right.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
You're having your way, but my point is.
My point is that's all folks.
Speaker 6 (16:33):
Little Gucci piggy Pig Off of his head.
He doesn't remember your name.
Is he going to cut off his head?
Yeah, I guess Does that meanit's one night, isn't it?
(17:05):
Again, the arpeggio pattern of.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Johnny, yeah, this is chaos right now deeper and
deeper way down.
Speaker 6 (17:34):
Shout out to office space killer movie this is why a
lot of people get turned offwith the radio.
A lot of the yeah, but it'slayered so well.
God loves his children, okay,pen?
Speaker 1 (18:03):
I mean that's like a time signature, it's like hard
for people to adjust.
Speaker 6 (18:08):
yeah, it's a six and a half minute song from a great
height.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
I wonder how having this album in the background can
impact a party, if it canchange the tide of the yeah.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
I think you would need somebody on screen playing
visuals and then everybody be onpsychedelics or something and
then listen to this album.
That would be a party.
Yeah, Not a conventional party.
(19:03):
No, Not a conventional party.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
No, there's got to be careful preparation for this
kind of gathering.
Speaker 6 (19:14):
Crackle of pigskin.
I hate my life.
Yeah, the vomit.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
You can't really dust for vomit Choked on vomit.
Speaker 2 (19:34):

Speaker 6 (20:12):
If I'm here and you're here, doesn't that make
it our time?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
All right Way to end that song.
Speaker 6 (20:31):
So next song Subterranean homesick alien.
So what you know this is about,you know boarding a spacecraft,
obviously and um you knowaliens again seeing the, seeing
the planet and having yourfriends not believe.
Originally titled Upright.
And then we had Bob Dylan.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Yeah, an influence on the song was an experience York
had when he was driving down acountry road and hit a pheasant.
After stepping out of the carto investigate, he began
thinking about alien abduction.
So with that, away we go.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Yeah.

I like how they have thislittle computer thing in the
background.
It's kind of cool, right yeah.
The very matter that makes usup, you know, you know where you
are with the poor collapse.
Speaker 4 (34:52):
Around.
Speaker 5 (34:56):
Around.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
The very matter that makes us up was generated long
ago and far away in red giantstars.
That song was like more of anaesthetic, you know, it's just
something that's just kind oflike repetitive and it's just a
the effects really take it overthe top.
Speaker 6 (35:36):
Yeah, really yeah.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
I like the way the songs are ordered too, because
this is a good song to listen toafter that kind of changes it
up.
Speaker 6 (35:47):
Different instruments there's a piano we got shout
out to fate and destiny on thissong here it's round and round.
They all catch up to you,karmic circle.
They'll all catch up to you,karmic.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
Circle.
You would get them if theydidn't behave.
According to Tom York, this ison Song Facts.
Karma's important.
The idea that something likekarma exists makes me happy,
makes me smile.
Karma Police is dedicated toeveryone who works for a big
firm.
It's a song against bosses.
(36:28):
Okay, yeah, that's kind of cool.
Just a little shout out toStiffs.
Speaker 3 (36:51):

It's not enough.
Speaker 4 (37:38):
This is what you'll get.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
I like these videos too.
Speaker 6 (37:54):
Ed O'Brien said in an interview when someone in the
band behaved like an a-hole, oneof the other band members would
say the Carmel Police is gonnaget you.
Speaker 5 (38:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
That's funny.
I suppose it's all rubbish thatyour destiny depends on your
deeds in a previous life.
We have to trust on something.
Speaker 6 (38:14):
Yeah, that's great.
Yeah, love that.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
Just think of Tom York Getting harassed by a bunch
of LA people Freaking out onthem.
Yeah, like in the 90s.
I picture it.
The 90s was like it was likeWilder in Ler in LA.
At the time people didn't haveboundaries.
(38:50):
People would just get right inyour face over everything.
Speaker 6 (38:57):
For sure.
Speaker 1 (38:59):
It was just kind of like culture in America at the
time, like the rock sceneEverybody knew that from Creep.

So ridiculous and cheapCalculated.
Speaker 5 (41:10):
No chance of escape Now self-employed, concerned but
powerless.
Speaker 1 (41:15):
An empowered and informed member of society.

I am sorry you had to see thatoh here we go.
Speaker 5 (42:14):

So anyway, yeah, okay , anyway, uh is this on okay?
All right.
So what's next electioneering?
Here's some of your guitarmusings.

Speaker 5 (42:51):
All right.
Speaker 4 (42:53):
Howard Dean yeah, yeah, oregon and Washington and
Michigan, and then we're goingto Washington DC to take back
the White House.
Speaker 1 (43:01):
Yeah, yeah, you didn't even make it to Fairfax
County.
Speaker 5 (43:18):
Say the right things when I'm actually.
Speaker 6 (43:24):
It's all a script.
Speaker 4 (43:26):
It's all a script, just like in the light In Oregon
and Washington.
I used a little more cowbell, Iused a little more.
Speaker 2 (43:37):
cowbell Could have used a little more cowbell.
Speaker 1 (43:42):
How was that?
Christopher Could have used alittle more cowbell, oh.
Speaker 5 (43:53):
Thank you?
Speaker 3 (43:58):
Oh God, yes, so I will.
South Carolina and Oklahoma andArizona.
Speaker 1 (44:07):
So this is inspired by the writings of Noam Chomsky.
He said like a lot of songs Iwrite came from two places at
once.
I had this phase I went throughon an American tour where we
just seemed to be shaking handsall the time and I was getting a
(44:28):
little bit sick and upset by it.
So I came up with this runningjoke with myself where I used to
shake people's hands and say Itrust I can rely on people's
hands and say I trust I can relyon your vote.
They go ha ha and look at melike I was a nutcase, but the
phrase sort of carried on.
It was like a mantra.
As well as that, I had beenreading a lot of Chomsky and I
(44:57):
had that feeling when you readChomsky that you want to get out
and do something and realize,in fact, that you're infatuated.
Okay, wow.
Speaker 6 (45:09):
So yeah, world politics, Cattlebot and the IMF.
Speaker 1 (45:16):
Cattlebot and the IMF .
Yeah, I guess the ConservativeParty had been in place since
1980.
It had been in for 17 years andthis is like a time period
where, yeah, everybody's lettingloose Because, yeah, it was
like a Margaret Thatcher-y kindof a thing that they I remember
that we're like on the oppositeside of that present day.
(45:41):
Actually, we're on the darkside of the moon right now,
compared to that time, which wasthings are going in the
opposite direction the wholeband's just doing an American
tour.
Speaker 6 (45:53):
Yeah, you know, kissing hands, shaking babies,
yeah, it's good stuff the music,the drums, it's like all over
the place.
Speaker 1 (46:09):
This is badass.
I like this.
Speaker 2 (46:15):
Ooh.
Speaker 1 (46:20):
Yeah, this is different.
Speaker 6 (46:23):
Some blues here.
Speaker 1 (46:28):
There's a wide range of stuff going on in this album,
for sure.
Speaker 6 (46:34):
Depending on the mood you're in, you can just go to
one song or another.
This has the same sort of themeas exit for for a film, exit
music.
It's that same sort of lockedin a scary basement, right a lot
(46:56):
of strings Locked in a scarybasement Right.
Speaker 5 (46:59):
A lot of strings, I guess.
Speaker 1 (47:06):
Can I read off another York story?
This one he says this is aboutthe unspeakable, literally soul
crushing, skull crushing.
He used to work in a mentalhospital Around the time that
care in the community startedand we all just knew that was
going to happen.
And it was one of the scariestthings to happen in this country
(47:29):
because a lot of them weren'tjust harmless, it was hailing
and violating, but we recordedthis.
Oh, so while they're recordingthis, the hail's coming down
Care in the community.
(47:49):
But either way you turn, Ibelieve in what I'm to show.
Speaker 5 (48:02):
I believe in freedom.
I believe in freedom.
Speaker 1 (48:11):
Yeah, so care in the community.
British policy aims to treatcare of the physically and
mentally disabled people inhomes rather than in
institutions.
Speaker 6 (48:19):
Okay, Wow, okay, that kind of brings it.
Speaker 1 (48:29):
It's always better on the outside.
Speaker 5 (48:38):
The teen blows the back of your mind.
Speaker 6 (48:43):
Okay, yeah, ooh, the eyes in the cupboard, because
you know some people can't sleepwith the curtains open in case
they see the eyes.
They imagine their head everynight burning through the glass.
(49:03):
As York, lots of people havepanic buttons fitted in their
bedrooms.
They can reach over and set thealarm off without disturbing
the intruder.
This song is about the cupboardmonster, the boogeyman.
Speaker 5 (49:16):
Yeah, right.
Speaker 6 (49:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (49:26):
State of agitation.
Oh, listen to this.
Radiohead recorded the OKComputer album in the mansion of
actress Jane Seymour who wasbusy filming her show Dr Quinn
Medicine.
As Ed O'Brien the name of theguy who produced this created a
(49:49):
gothic mood.
The phrase climbing up thewalls means being in a state of
agitation through stress orworry.
Speaker 6 (49:59):
Ed's a guitarist.
Speaker 1 (50:02):
Oh, okay, I'm sorry Did he record?
Speaker 6 (50:05):
I mean, did he Slash bassist, slash instrumentalist?
Speaker 1 (50:10):
Yeah, Wow, this is crazy.
Speaker 2 (50:31):
Mellow out man.
Speaker 5 (50:48):
Pretty cool.
Yeah, oh, that feels so goodHello.
Speaker 6 (50:51):
Like that oh oh, nice , I like that.
Oh, I like that.
Speaker 1 (51:06):
Yeah, yeah yeah.
Brian does a lot of the backingvocals too.
Speaker 6 (51:13):
He's very, very good, good, pretty good guy
drumming's really good.
Speaker 1 (51:22):
I was kind of good solo career now.
Yeah, phil is good this guy,col Colin Greenwood, composer.
Speaker 6 (51:56):
I bet Tom York would probably have some disdain for
us doing this album.
Of course He'd be like what arey'all doing?
Speaker 1 (52:04):
Of course he would be like what the hell?
Speaker 6 (52:09):
Go kiss your loved ones, all of them On the lips.
Speaker 1 (52:18):
This is sacrilege what we're doing, isn't it?
Speaker 5 (52:21):
Well.
Speaker 1 (52:22):
I mean.
Speaker 6 (52:26):
It's a great album.
Speaker 1 (52:28):
Yeah, it is.
It's incredible.
So this is no surprises, man.
It's a hit, so we're not goingto.
Speaker 6 (52:48):
Stadium friendly.
Yeah, this is Colin.
This is Colin like time.
Speaker 1 (53:07):
York said like if you play this song right, it is
effing dark, he said.
But it's like acting.
It's on the edge of totallyhamming it up, but you're not.
It's just the words are so darkwhen we play it.
We have to play it slow.
It only sounds good if it'sfragile.
Okay, interesting.
Speaker 6 (53:26):
Yeah, that's true, if it sped up, it would lose its
charm.
Speaker 1 (53:33):
Yeah, I mean like his .
You know the uneasiness in hisvoice.
You have to be really.
He probably has to be really,really delicate.
He's got to do that Peter Bradything like every night.
Speaker 6 (53:56):
York introduced the rest of the band to this song in
a dressing room in Oslofollowing a support gig to REM
in 95.
Oh, that's cool.
Later the lyrics were rewrittenand a new glockenspiel melody
was added.
Speaker 1 (54:12):
What?
No, it adds to it.
I can hear it.
Oh yeah, okay, the back of thisis that glockenspiel, so they
just layered on that.
Speaker 6 (54:23):
They got a fresh glockenspiel and all slow and
we're like hell, yeah, Isurprised I found this on the
street.
Yeah, okay, it's freeglockenspiel.
Let's write this song about howsociety will never live up to
(54:44):
our expectations and will besoul crushing, and we have to
somehow persevere.
Speaker 1 (54:52):
Yeah, so okay, I'm glad.
Speaker 5 (54:55):
I don't have to.
Speaker 1 (54:56):
Yeah, I don't know, it's a nice, it's a beautiful
song, yeah, so okay, I'm glad Idon't have to.
Yeah, I don't know, it's a nice, it's a beautiful song.
Speaker 6 (55:02):
Shout out to Sarah.
Speaker 1 (55:05):
Yeah, all Sarahs out there, Anybody feeling lucky?
Speaker 4 (55:18):
What's this song about?
Speaker 1 (55:22):
Let's see what SongFact says.
This was recorded on September4th 1995.
It was a charity album forchildren of Boz.
That war was going on at thattime Ed O'Brien told Q Magazine
(55:49):
we wanted to give the Help albumthe best song we had at the
time.
We didn't have any fear aboutholding songs back.
We've been touring the band andplaying and played Lucky for
the first time in a soundcheckin Japan.
(56:10):
Okay, cool, he said it wasprobably.
He said this song is probablythe best song that they've done
to that day.
It was like okay, this is whatthe next phrase could be
Interesting.
(56:35):
Yeah, standing on the edge, Yorksaid.
The history of our times callsto mind those Walt Disney
characters who rush madly overthe edge Of a cliff without
seeing.
The power of their Imaginationskeep them suspended In midair,
but as soon as they look downand see where they are, they
fall.
(56:56):
That did mid-air.
Speaker 5 (56:57):
But as soon as they look down and see where they are
, they fall.
Speaker 6 (57:03):
Hopefully you remember that answer yeah.
Speaker 5 (57:08):
Remember, it's gonna be a blast.
Speaker 1 (57:40):
And I feel my luck could change.
Pull me out of the way.
Speaker 4 (57:57):
Cause I'm your Savior .
Why are you going to theairport Flying somewhere, man?
Speaker 6 (58:05):
this is going to be tough.
(58:26):
Shout out to Malaysia AirlinesFlight 370.
Still never to be found.
Speaker 1 (58:34):
How did I disappear, still never to be found,
disappeared.
Speaker 6 (58:40):
Disappeared.
Will they locate the aircraft?
Who knows?
Speaker 1 (59:12):
Like a lemming that was deep, deeper and deeper way
down.
Alright, this one's called theTourist.
We're coming to the homestretch.
I think this is the last one,so we've got to make this a good
one.
Talk about.
Speaker 5 (59:34):
Yikes.
Speaker 2 (59:40):
This piece is called Lick my Love Pump.
Speaker 1 (59:44):
You knew I was wanting that one.
Speaker 6 (59:45):
Yeah, yeah, sorry, this deals with reckless driver.
(01:00:19):
Again, slow down.
Intended to be a song about thespeed you live your life with.
Speaker 1 (01:00:50):
Mm-hmm, oh Interesting.
Okay, yeah, this is heavy, soslow down.
Okay, yeah, this is heavy.
Speaker 6 (01:01:14):
So slow down.
Not about technology, says TomTom's sleep-deprived paranoid.
(01:01:35):
He's got a dog barking at himIn the middle of the night,
that's right.
And he's in Germany, that's.
That's where we're at.
Speaker 1 (01:01:48):
When he wrote this Say hello out man.
Speaker 6 (01:01:53):
Chill man, a German shepherd on your tail, brother
Flying somewhere.
Speaker 4 (01:02:25):
Why are you going to the airport, flying somewhere?
Speaker 1 (01:02:27):
How'd you guess I saw your luggage and when I noticed
the airline ticket, I put twoand two together and when I
noticed the airline ticket, Iput two and two together
detected.
Speaker 4 (01:02:50):
Here is an ordinary square.
Tell them, Chief Ligger.
Speaker 1 (01:03:35):
Slow down, I think I know I know my top three.
You have yours, yeah yeah, yeahslow got another minute minute.
(01:03:57):
Slow down wanna.
Speaker 6 (01:03:59):
Wanna fade it out, we'll ride it out yeah, we can
alright we can keep it on in thebackground while we yeah
alright, yeah, let it go.
Speaker 1 (01:04:13):
So my what's your number?
Speaker 6 (01:04:15):
three man number let me get him up here for you three
.
Take a look.
All right, yeah, let it go.
So my what's your number threeman Number?
Let me get them up here for youThree.
Take a look.
It's tough.
On any other given day I wouldsay Other songs, songs maybe.
(01:04:40):
I mean.
After just listening to thelast songs, I feel like they're
just going to be my, you'regoing to be on there Just
because they're fresh in yourmind.
Speaker 1 (01:04:52):
They're fresh Well okay, I had three distinct ones.
Speaker 6 (01:04:55):
I'm going to go.
The Taurus number three.
Speaker 1 (01:04:58):
Really yeah Slow down .
Speaker 6 (01:04:59):
Okay, slow it down here.
I've always liked that one.
It does wrap a bow on it.
The little bell at the end yeah, I like to put it on when I'm
in foreign countries and justwalk around.
It's good.
Speaker 1 (01:05:14):
Yeah, well, I mean, my message was just think.
If you just slow down and justthink about what you're doing
and how everything is going toimpact you, you can make some
choices, thoughtful choices,that can get you so much further
.
If you just slow down and thinkthings through.
So I mean it was a greatsentiment.
(01:05:35):
But there was just somethingabout like number three for me
is electioneering.
There was something just supergreat about that.
I mean it's just kind of I justlike how all the instruments
came together and it was justreally trippy and the symbolism,
you know, the electioneering,et cetera.
Speaker 6 (01:05:59):
you know, yeah, I, you know like I appreciate your
vote, Like you know, yeah, I cansee Tom saying that to people
Exactly and just getting a laughout of that.
Speaker 1 (01:06:10):
Yeah, what about your number two?
Speaker 6 (01:06:13):
Oh, geez, um, yeah, what about your?
Number two oh geez um let down,I think it's, it's, uh, it's
catchy okay and it just willstay with you.
If you, if you let it, the songcould go and go and go.
(01:06:33):
It's got a really circularemotion and it is about
expectations and not having them.
Maybe.
It hits a nerve, you're happyat the same time, yeah and it's
cathartic.
Speaker 1 (01:06:50):
Maybe in some way You're giving up to being let
down, which is a good thing.
You can kind of it's a.
It's that tipping point betweenbeing super let down and moving
on, kind of a right, you're,you're breaking that threshold.
So okay, yeah yeah, this is uhfor you.
This is like a mental exerciseit is for me.
(01:07:12):
I was just like jamming out,I'm like number two.
I was thinking uh, subterranean, homesick alien that was uh,
that song rocked, I think it was.
Uh, I just like the music and itgrooved, so I would just leave
it at that okay, yeah.
Speaker 6 (01:07:30):
Well, like a juggernaut slipping through the
time portal to save the universein an interstellar blast, I'm
going to go with Airbag no 1.
Oh yeah, great song, good riff,uh-huh, simple lines
intertwining, yeah Just.
Speaker 1 (01:07:51):
Yeah, I love Pump.
Speaker 6 (01:07:54):
It's a great, it kind of is.
Yeah look, I love pump it's uh,it's a great kind of is.
It's a.
It's a good sort of song todrive to.
Speaker 1 (01:08:03):
Uh, obviously, drive responsibly to gotcha under five
under in the slow lane I'm gladthat was a song that was worthy
of being in one of our topthrees, but also.
Speaker 6 (01:08:13):
Yeah, for me honorable mention goes to every
other song on here.
Speaker 1 (01:08:16):
I know, yeah, this is what's so gross about what
we're doing, because every songis so good and it's so open to
interpretation, or in what moodyou're in can dictate what the?
Top three is, and so let's not.
Speaker 6 (01:08:30):
If I was in a more subdued mood, exit Music and
Climb Up the Walls.
Like subdued mood.
Exit music and climbing up thewalls, yeah, and maybe even
Karma Police, no Surprises, allthose songs could be on there, a
sort of sad melancholy playlist, yeah, anyway.
Speaker 1 (01:08:47):
My number one is going to be climbing up the
walls, wow.
Speaker 6 (01:08:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:08:52):
I thought that that was.
I did not see that coming.
Yeah, I know, that wasincredible that thought that
that was.
I did not see that coming.
Yeah, I know that wasincredible.
That was a great song.
You know a lot of just like alot of these noises all together
there's difference, like awhole host of the Greenwood was
Unexpected things.
Speaker 6 (01:09:08):
Yeah, doing some, he was doing some.
Mastering yeah, he was yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:09:13):
So for me, me, it was all about, you know, just the,
the jams and then for tim, Ithink it was more like the like,
the cerebral, uh, ideas, youknow, that evoke such a like a
strong, like emotional reaction.
Yeah as it, yeah as itdefinitely does, you know, on
(01:09:37):
many levels.
So, all right, let's put a bowon it, we're good well porky
that's all folks, all right allright guys later take care.
oh, that's beautiful what do you call that?
Speaker 1 (00:19):
well, this piece is called lick my love pump ah, no,
seriously, thank you forlistening to the Greatest Nine
Hits.
I'm Chris and playing a mashupof the song Airbag and
electioneering from OK Computer.
Radiohead's 1997 album is myco-host.
(00:41):
Tim.
Thanks for joining us.
I hope a lot of fans arelistening.
Radio heads man.
We did the bends earlier thisyear and we're going to end this
season with OK Computer.
So this is going to be the lastalbum that we're going to do
(01:01):
this year.
We did the 90s, but in the nextyear we're going to do.
This year we did the 90s, butin the next year we're going to
be doing some other stuff too.
We'll do some 90s, 80s, 70s.
I think what we want to do iskind of mix it up and just kind
of widen and open the format ofwhat we can do, expect a mixed
bag moving forward.
We're happy that we're fouryears in.
(01:23):
It's exciting for us.
We couldn't be happier to dothis album.
We're pretty stoked about thisbecause we love Radiohead, tim
especially, and this is aroundthe time I think some of these
(01:44):
guys who do these interviews andwrite reviews I should say you
know, I think they nailed,nailed it with.
This is sort of like a post Britpop shift.
So, you know, you gotta thinkyou're in the blur era and then
you're kind of going into thelate nineties and this is a
little bit deeper and heavier.
And we could go on and on aboutthe intricacies of Tom York.
(02:10):
He's brave, he's articulate,he's intellectually honest about
just the unsettling feelingsthat we get that we can't really
put into words.
I mean, he's super poetic atyou know, capturing like those
awkward feelings in life and, uh, you know, and that's that's a
(02:31):
theme throughout the.
The songs on this album, all ofthem kind of relate back to
past experiences where he's kindof like, you know, I don't kind
of freaked out a little bit or,you know, know stuff like that.
But nevertheless we'll listen toall the songs, like we always
do on all of our podcasts, andthen at the end we'll rank our
(02:54):
top three non-hits, the hitsongs on OK Computer we're
talking Karma Police, par, nosurprises.
I think the rest of them willbe in the in the hunt for the
top three.
So I'm excited to listen towhat tim has to say.
(03:16):
Usually the albums or the songsthat he he does sometimes a lot
of times, are kind of a hint asto where he's going to go, but
not always.
So I'll be.
I'm uh, I'm intrigued.
I'm intrigued what he's goingto, what he's going to do, um,
but anyway, um, but I think thatthis is probably one of the
(03:39):
most critically acclaimed of theum, the different albums, you
know, of course they, the fanbase is incredible.
They're kind of like a Rush fanbase and a Phish fan base.
You know, tim's a Phish guy,I'm a Rush guy, of course, and
then many of you are diehardRadiohead fans, as you should be
, because you know, tom York ishe's sort of like the Neil Peart
(04:04):
or the Trey Anastasio kind of aguy.
You know the leader and a lotof the creativity emanates from
him, his ideas, his influences,et cetera, and it all coalesces
and comes together.
so you know, just so perfectly,so perfectly, and um you know
(04:31):
there's artwork um that had isvery like, has a lot of
symbolism.
There are just different, uhnods to uh that um what is in
there, it's uh.
Who was the artist for?
That anyway, I'll have to lookthat up.
I mean, that's what I'm saying.
I haven't really gotten thatdeep into it but, oh nice.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Well, this piece is called lick my love pump.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
All right, so well, he puts the guitar away.
We're going to get settled in.
We're going to listen to songs.
I'm curious.
Tim is so excited for this one.
He's got notes.
He can't wait to shareanecdotes, song facts.
(05:18):
We're going to do all that ohmy gosh.
First of all, how?
Speaker 6 (05:22):
are you doing, man?
I'm doing well here.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Good.
Speaker 6 (05:25):
Now buckle, buckle up .
All right, it's the law, orshould it be?
The law I don't know probablyuh, if you're tom tom york it
shouldn't be the law, becauseyou know um yeah yeah, you know,
a bunch of laws, a bunch of redtape for society here.
(05:50):
Yeah, this is, uh, you can'twait.
You know, even the album coveris like they did this sort of
collage, slash mixed media over,uh, this basic freeway.
That's sort of a story of howit divided the town and it was
(06:11):
sort of a hot-button issue whenit was built.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Yeah, and obviously, Well, it also is sort of a
depiction of, yeah, a dystopianworld.
You know, rampant, you knowthere's.
These are symbols of capitalism, consumerism.
The highways, social alienation, you know highways that cut
(06:36):
through big cities.
It disconnects us alienalienation it does, it alienates
us it alienates alienstechnology insanity shout out,
globalization shout out to therunners aliens shout out to the
(07:01):
aliens.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
Okay yeah, this just has everything.
It doesn't have everything.
It has the things that are asocial critique of society, I
should say in an angsty formatof musical brilliance.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Well, along that thought, the first song is
Airbag and we're going gonnastart with that and we should
probably, you know, without it,should go without mention that
this is about, you know, the caraccident that he was in right
with, uh, with an ex, and itjust kind of underscores, like
(07:41):
the fragility of life.
You know things are more randomand you know we're not as
secure as we think we are, kindof a thing.
It's kind of the idea accordingto song facts, that kind of
stuff.
Speaker 6 (07:52):
And when you're in a close collision with destiny,
you come out on top.
Well, you got to celebrate.
There we go.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Yeah, exactly.
Okay, with that being said, andaway we go, all right.
Speaker 3 (08:14):

panic attack at a bar kind ofeverybody wants to talk to him
about his stuff and he's justlike tired and like this sucks
(13:24):
was.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
It wasn't he kind of like?
He was kind of like freaked outa little bit, though beyond
just like bored and tired yeah,because american la people right
most likely it's a cultureclash a little bit maybe.
For him I'm sure it would havebeen overwhelming, you know yeah
, you could be in jet lag.
You know you're kind ofdisoriented, you know, and yeah,
dealing with your fame and it'slike what's going on?
Speaker 6 (13:45):
Everybody knows you and you don't know any, Tom
already has a bad eye and it's.
It was probably twitching outlike really bad yeah.

one.

Speaker 6 (14:02):
Loud noises, okay, okay, loud noises, okay, yeah,
johnny, on these crazy effectsthat he does.
Uh-huh, colin, ed, could you?
Speaker 5 (14:21):
stop the noise and try to get some rest.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
Simple lines intertwining and all the unbound
chicken voices in my head ohheaven, you're right, but my
point is.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
My point is you must take this fine cassava melon
over to him, Show him what yougot.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
but don't let him have it.
You gotta tease him a little.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
That's not chicken Foghorn's.
You got rooster.
That's not chicken Foghorn'shorn.
Look at Rooster.
You will be fast against thewall.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
With your opinion, which is of no consequence at
all.
Speaker 5 (15:44):
That's just like your opinion, man you look for the
person who will benefit.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Simple sound clips intertwining.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
You look for the person who will benefit and you
know I am the walrus, you knowyou'll uh, you know what I'm
trying to say.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
I am the walrus, I am the walrus, I am the walrus.
You're out of your element,donnie, that's right.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
You're having your way, but my point is.
My point is that's all folks.
Speaker 6 (16:33):
Little Gucci piggy Pig Off of his head.
He doesn't remember your name.
Is he going to cut off his head?
Yeah, I guess Does that meanit's one night, isn't it?
(17:05):
Again, the arpeggio pattern of.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Johnny, yeah, this is chaos right now deeper and
deeper way down.
Speaker 6 (17:34):
Shout out to office space killer movie this is why a
lot of people get turned offwith the radio.
A lot of the yeah, but it'slayered so well.
God loves his children, okay,pen?
Speaker 1 (18:03):
I mean that's like a time signature, it's like hard
for people to adjust.
Speaker 6 (18:08):
yeah, it's a six and a half minute song from a great
height.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
I wonder how having this album in the background can
impact a party, if it canchange the tide of the yeah.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
I think you would need somebody on screen playing
visuals and then everybody be onpsychedelics or something and
then listen to this album.
That would be a party.
Yeah, Not a conventional party.
(19:03):
No, Not a conventional party.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
No, there's got to be careful preparation for this
kind of gathering.
Speaker 6 (19:14):
Crackle of pigskin.
I hate my life.
Yeah, the vomit.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
You can't really dust for vomit Choked on vomit.

Speaker 6 (20:12):
If I'm here and you're here, doesn't that make
it our time?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
All right Way to end that song.
Speaker 6 (20:31):
So next song Subterranean homesick alien.
So what you know this is about,you know boarding a spacecraft,
obviously and um you knowaliens again seeing the, seeing
the planet and having yourfriends not believe.
Originally titled Upright.
And then we had Bob Dylan.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Yeah, an influence on the song was an experience York
had when he was driving down acountry road and hit a pheasant.
After stepping out of the carto investigate, he began
thinking about alien abduction.
So with that, away we go.
Speaker 3 (21:04):

are with the poor collapse.
Speaker 4 (34:52):
Around.
Speaker 5 (34:56):
Around.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
The very matter that makes us up was generated long
ago and far away in red giantstars.
That song was like more of anaesthetic, you know, it's just
something that's just kind oflike repetitive and it's just a
the effects really take it overthe top.
Speaker 6 (35:36):
Yeah, really yeah.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
I like the way the songs are ordered too, because
this is a good song to listen toafter that kind of changes it
up.

say the Carmel Police is gonnaget you.
Speaker 5 (38:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (38:04):

deeds in a previous life.
We have to trust on something.
Speaker 6 (38:14):
Yeah, that's great.

Speaker 1 (38:27):
Just think of Tom York Getting harassed by a bunch
of LA people Freaking out onthem.

Thank you?
Speaker 3 (43:58):
Oh God, yes, so I will.
South Carolina and Oklahoma andArizona.
Speaker 1 (44:07):
So this is inspired by the writings of Noam Chomsky.
He said like a lot of songs Iwrite came from two places at
once.
I had this phase I went throughon an American tour where we
just seemed to be shaking handsall the time and I was getting a
(44:28):
little bit sick and upset by it.
So I came up with this runningjoke with myself where I used to
shake people's hands and say Itrust I can rely on people's
hands and say I trust I can relyon your vote.
They go ha ha and look at melike I was a nutcase, but the
phrase sort of carried on.
It was like a mantra.
As well as that, I had beenreading a lot of Chomsky and I
(44:57):
had that feeling when you readChomsky that you want to get out
and do something and realize,in fact, that you're infatuated.
Okay, wow.
Speaker 6 (45:09):
So yeah, world politics, Cattlebot and the IMF.
Speaker 1 (45:16):
Cattlebot and the IMF .
Yeah, I guess the ConservativeParty had been in place since
1980.
It had been in for 17 years andthis is like a time period
where, yeah, everybody's lettingloose Because, yeah, it was
like a Margaret Thatcher-y kindof a thing that they I remember
that we're like on the oppositeside of that present day.
(45:41):
Actually, we're on the darkside of the moon right now,
compared to that time, which wasthings are going in the
opposite direction the wholeband's just doing an American
tour.
Speaker 6 (45:53):
Yeah, you know, kissing hands, shaking babies,
yeah, it's good stuff the music,the drums, it's like all over
the place.
Speaker 1 (46:09):
This is badass.
I like this.
Speaker 2 (46:15):
Ooh.
Speaker 1 (46:20):
Yeah, this is different.
Speaker 6 (46:23):
Some blues here.
Speaker 1 (46:28):
There's a wide range of stuff going on in this album,
for sure.
Speaker 6 (46:34):
Depending on the mood you're in, you can just go to
one song or another.
This has the same sort of themeas exit for for a film, exit
music.
It's that same sort of lockedin a scary basement, right a lot
(46:56):
of strings Locked in a scarybasement Right.
Speaker 5 (46:59):
A lot of strings, I guess.
Speaker 1 (47:06):
Can I read off another York story?
This one he says this is aboutthe unspeakable, literally soul
crushing, skull crushing.
He used to work in a mentalhospital Around the time that
care in the community startedand we all just knew that was
going to happen.
And it was one of the scariestthings to happen in this country
(47:29):
because a lot of them weren'tjust harmless, it was hailing
and violating, but we recordedthis.
Oh, so while they're recordingthis, the hail's coming down
Care in the community.
(47:49):
But either way you turn, Ibelieve in what I'm to show.
Speaker 5 (48:02):
I believe in freedom.
I believe in freedom.
Speaker 1 (48:11):
Yeah, so care in the community.
British policy aims to treatcare of the physically and
mentally disabled people inhomes rather than in
institutions.
Speaker 6 (48:19):
Okay, Wow, okay, that kind of brings it.
Speaker 1 (48:29):
It's always better on the outside.
Speaker 5 (48:38):
The teen blows the back of your mind.
Speaker 6 (48:43):
Okay, yeah, ooh, the eyes in the cupboard, because
you know some people can't sleepwith the curtains open in case
they see the eyes.
They imagine their head everynight burning through the glass.
(49:03):
As York, lots of people havepanic buttons fitted in their
bedrooms.
They can reach over and set thealarm off without disturbing
the intruder.
This song is about the cupboardmonster, the boogeyman.
Speaker 5 (49:16):
Yeah, right.
Speaker 6 (49:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (49:26):
State of agitation.
Oh, listen to this.
Radiohead recorded the OKComputer album in the mansion of
actress Jane Seymour who wasbusy filming her show Dr Quinn
Medicine.
As Ed O'Brien the name of theguy who produced this created a
(49:49):
gothic mood.
The phrase climbing up thewalls means being in a state of
agitation through stress orworry.
Speaker 6 (49:59):
Ed's a guitarist.
Speaker 1 (50:02):
Oh, okay, I'm sorry Did he record?
Speaker 6 (50:05):
I mean, did he Slash bassist, slash instrumentalist?
Speaker 1 (50:10):
Yeah, Wow, this is crazy.
Speaker 2 (50:31):
Mellow out man.
Speaker 5 (50:48):
Pretty cool.
Yeah, oh, that feels so goodHello.
Speaker 6 (50:51):
Like that oh oh, nice , I like that.
Oh, I like that.
Speaker 1 (51:06):
Yeah, yeah yeah.
Brian does a lot of the backingvocals too.
Speaker 6 (51:13):
He's very, very good, good, pretty good guy
drumming's really good.
Speaker 1 (51:22):
I was kind of good solo career now.
Yeah, phil is good this guy,col Colin Greenwood, composer.
Speaker 6 (51:56):
I bet Tom York would probably have some disdain for
us doing this album.
Of course He'd be like what arey'all doing?
Speaker 1 (52:04):
Of course he would be like what the hell?
Speaker 6 (52:09):
Go kiss your loved ones, all of them On the lips.
Speaker 1 (52:18):
This is sacrilege what we're doing, isn't it?
Speaker 5 (52:21):
Well.
Speaker 1 (52:22):
I mean.
Speaker 6 (52:26):
It's a great album.
Speaker 1 (52:28):
Yeah, it is.
It's incredible.
So this is no surprises, man.
It's a hit, so we're not goingto.
Speaker 6 (52:48):
Stadium friendly.
Yeah, this is Colin.
This is Colin like time.
Speaker 1 (53:07):
York said like if you play this song right, it is
effing dark, he said.
But it's like acting.
It's on the edge of totallyhamming it up, but you're not.
It's just the words are so darkwhen we play it.
We have to play it slow.
It only sounds good if it'sfragile.
Okay, interesting.
Speaker 6 (53:26):
Yeah, that's true, if it sped up, it would lose its
charm.
Speaker 1 (53:33):
Yeah, I mean like his .
You know the uneasiness in hisvoice.
You have to be really.
He probably has to be really,really delicate.
He's got to do that Peter Bradything like every night.
Speaker 6 (53:56):
York introduced the rest of the band to this song in
a dressing room in Oslofollowing a support gig to REM
in 95.
Oh, that's cool.
Later the lyrics were rewrittenand a new glockenspiel melody
was added.
Speaker 1 (54:12):
What?
No, it adds to it.
I can hear it.
Oh yeah, okay, the back of thisis that glockenspiel, so they
just layered on that.
Speaker 6 (54:23):
They got a fresh glockenspiel and all slow and
we're like hell, yeah, Isurprised I found this on the
street.
Yeah, okay, it's freeglockenspiel.
Let's write this song about howsociety will never live up to
(54:44):
our expectations and will besoul crushing, and we have to
somehow persevere.
Speaker 1 (54:52):
Yeah, so okay, I'm glad.
Speaker 5 (54:55):
I don't have to.
Speaker 1 (54:56):
Yeah, I don't know, it's a nice, it's a beautiful
song, yeah, so okay, I'm glad Idon't have to.
Yeah, I don't know, it's a nice, it's a beautiful song.
Speaker 6 (55:02):
Shout out to Sarah.
Speaker 1 (55:05):
Yeah, all Sarahs out there, Anybody feeling lucky?
Speaker 4 (55:18):
What's this song about?
Speaker 1 (55:22):
Let's see what SongFact says.
This was recorded on September4th 1995.
It was a charity album forchildren of Boz.
That war was going on at thattime Ed O'Brien told Q Magazine
(55:49):
we wanted to give the Help albumthe best song we had at the
time.
We didn't have any fear aboutholding songs back.
We've been touring the band andplaying and played Lucky for
the first time in a soundcheckin Japan.
(56:10):
Okay, cool, he said it wasprobably.
He said this song is probablythe best song that they've done
to that day.
It was like okay, this is whatthe next phrase could be
Interesting.
(56:35):
Yeah, standing on the edge, Yorksaid.
The history of our times callsto mind those Walt Disney
characters who rush madly overthe edge Of a cliff without
seeing.
The power of their Imaginationskeep them suspended In midair,
but as soon as they look downand see where they are, they
fall.
(56:56):
That did mid-air.
Speaker 5 (56:57):
But as soon as they look down and see where they are
, they fall.
Speaker 6 (57:03):
Hopefully you remember that answer yeah.
Speaker 5 (57:08):
Remember, it's gonna be a blast.
Speaker 1 (57:40):
And I feel my luck could change.
Pull me out of the way.
Speaker 4 (57:57):
Cause I'm your Savior .
Why are you going to theairport Flying somewhere, man?
Speaker 6 (58:05):
this is going to be tough.
(58:26):
Shout out to Malaysia AirlinesFlight 370.
Still never to be found.
Speaker 1 (58:34):
How did I disappear, still never to be found,
disappeared.
Speaker 6 (58:40):
Disappeared.
Will they locate the aircraft?
Who knows?
Speaker 1 (59:12):
Like a lemming that was deep, deeper and deeper way
down.
Alright, this one's called theTourist.
We're coming to the homestretch.
I think this is the last one,so we've got to make this a good
one.
Talk about.
Speaker 5 (59:34):
Yikes.
Speaker 2 (59:40):
This piece is called Lick my Love Pump.
Speaker 1 (59:44):
You knew I was wanting that one.
Speaker 6 (59:45):
Yeah, yeah, sorry, this deals with reckless driver.
(01:00:19):
Again, slow down.
Intended to be a song about thespeed you live your life with.
Speaker 1 (01:00:50):
Mm-hmm, oh Interesting.
Okay, yeah, this is heavy, soslow down.
Okay, yeah, this is heavy.
Speaker 6 (01:01:14):
So slow down.
Not about technology, says TomTom's sleep-deprived paranoid.
(01:01:35):
He's got a dog barking at himIn the middle of the night,
that's right.
And he's in Germany, that's.
That's where we're at.
Speaker 1 (01:01:48):
When he wrote this Say hello out man.
Speaker 6 (01:01:53):
Chill man, a German shepherd on your tail, brother
Flying somewhere.
Speaker 4 (01:02:25):
Why are you going to the airport, flying somewhere?
Speaker 1 (01:02:27):
How'd you guess I saw your luggage and when I noticed
the airline ticket, I put twoand two together and when I
noticed the airline ticket, Iput two and two together
detected.
Speaker 4 (01:02:50):
Here is an ordinary square.
Tell them, Chief Ligger.
Speaker 1 (01:03:35):
Slow down, I think I know I know my top three.
You have yours, yeah yeah, yeahslow got another minute minute.
(01:03:57):
Slow down wanna.
Speaker 6 (01:03:59):
Wanna fade it out, we'll ride it out yeah, we can
alright we can keep it on in thebackground while we yeah
alright, yeah, let it go.
Speaker 1 (01:04:13):
So my what's your number?
Speaker 6 (01:04:15):

.
Take a look.
All right, yeah, let it go.
So my what's your number threeman Number?
Let me get them up here for youThree.
Take a look.
It's tough.
On any other given day I wouldsay Other songs, songs maybe.
(01:04:40):
I mean.
After just listening to thelast songs, I feel like they're
just going to be my, you'regoing to be on there Just
because they're fresh in yourmind.
Speaker 1 (01:04:52):
They're fresh Well okay, I had three distinct ones.
Speaker 6 (01:04:55):
I'm going to go.
The Taurus number three.
Speaker 1 (01:04:58):
Really yeah Slow down .
Speaker 6 (01:04:59):
Okay, slow it down here.
I've always liked that one.
It does wrap a bow on it.
The little bell at the end yeah, I like to put it on when I'm
in foreign countries and justwalk around.
It's good.
Speaker 1 (01:05:14):
Yeah, well, I mean, my message was just think.
If you just slow down and justthink about what you're doing
and how everything is going toimpact you, you can make some
choices, thoughtful choices,that can get you so much further
.
If you just slow down and thinkthings through.
So I mean it was a greatsentiment.
(01:05:35):
But there was just somethingabout like number three for me
is electioneering.
There was something just supergreat about that.
I mean it's just kind of I justlike how all the instruments
came together and it was justreally trippy and the symbolism,
you know, the electioneering,et cetera.
Speaker 6 (01:05:59):
you know, yeah, I, you know like I appreciate your
vote, Like you know, yeah, I cansee Tom saying that to people
Exactly and just getting a laughout of that.
Speaker 1 (01:06:10):
Yeah, what about your number two?
Speaker 6 (01:06:13):
Oh, geez, um, yeah, what about your?
Number two oh geez um let down,I think it's, it's, uh, it's
catchy okay and it just willstay with you.
If you, if you let it, the songcould go and go and go.
(01:06:33):
It's got a really circularemotion and it is about
expectations and not having them.
Maybe.
It hits a nerve, you're happyat the same time, yeah and it's
cathartic.
Speaker 1 (01:06:50):
Maybe in some way You're giving up to being let
down, which is a good thing.
You can kind of it's a.
It's that tipping point betweenbeing super let down and moving
on, kind of a right, you're,you're breaking that threshold.
So okay, yeah yeah, this is uhfor you.
This is like a mental exerciseit is for me.
(01:07:12):
I was just like jamming out,I'm like number two.
I was thinking uh, subterranean, homesick alien that was uh,
that song rocked, I think it was.
Uh, I just like the music and itgrooved, so I would just leave
it at that okay, yeah.
Speaker 6 (01:07:30):
Well, like a juggernaut slipping through the
time portal to save the universein an interstellar blast, I'm
going to go with Airbag no 1.
Oh yeah, great song, good riff,uh-huh, simple lines
intertwining, yeah Just.
Speaker 1 (01:07:51):
Yeah, I love Pump.
Speaker 6 (01:07:54):
It's a great, it kind of is.
Yeah look, I love pump it's uh,it's a great kind of is.
It's a.
It's a good sort of song todrive to.
Speaker 1 (01:08:03):
Uh, obviously, drive responsibly to gotcha under five
under in the slow lane I'm gladthat was a song that was worthy
of being in one of our topthrees, but also.
Speaker 6 (01:08:13):
Yeah, for me honorable mention goes to every
other song on here.
Speaker 1 (01:08:16):
I know, yeah, this is what's so gross about what
we're doing, because every songis so good and it's so open to
interpretation, or in what moodyou're in can dictate what the?
Top three is, and so let's not.
Speaker 6 (01:08:30):
If I was in a more subdued mood, exit Music and
Climb Up the Walls.
Like subdued mood.
Exit music and climbing up thewalls, yeah, and maybe even
Karma Police, no Surprises, allthose songs could be on there, a
sort of sad melancholy playlist, yeah, anyway.
Speaker 1 (01:08:47):
My number one is going to be climbing up the
walls, wow.
Speaker 6 (01:08:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:08:52):
I thought that that was.
I did not see that coming.
Yeah, I know, that wasincredible that thought that
that was.
I did not see that coming.
Yeah, I know that wasincredible.
That was a great song.
You know a lot of just like alot of these noises all together
there's difference, like awhole host of the Greenwood was
Unexpected things.
Speaker 6 (01:09:08):
Yeah, doing some, he was doing some.
Mastering yeah, he was yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:09:13):
So for me, me, it was all about, you know, just the,
the jams and then for tim, Ithink it was more like the like,
the cerebral, uh, ideas, youknow, that evoke such a like a
strong, like emotional reaction.
Yeah as it, yeah as itdefinitely does, you know, on
(01:09:37):
many levels.
So, all right, let's put a bowon it, we're good well porky
that's all folks, all right allright guys later take care.
