  • oli · 1 year ago
    Probably the best Radiohead experience I ever had was watching them live on tv in 2003: http://youtube.com/watch?v=HDS4wOd_o1I

    The camera work and the performance are both amazing.

    Hey there!
    I'm pretty sure u don't know me, after all I come from the other side of the globe. i found ur site here just by chance in a way i'll tell u how if it fits later, but that's another story. By now let's say i liked this place so u could say u've won one more ciber-fan :)
    I guess we've all thought about the personal OST of our lives, so i'll sketch mine up here in just a few flashes back (don't remember the year it was but how old i was):
    15)I start listening to sweet reggae a bit more seriously than I had been, but even today the old Bob keeps defining myself in "Soul Rebel" (bob Marley).

    17) Could have been either Pennywise, NoFX, or even blink-182, but the perfect combination to me of happy punk-rock and positiveness to life of Millenconlin just made my youth a better time to live:)

    19)I've already made my way to the university, and breakdancing is at its peak time in my scale of preferences... no doubt that was partly due to Dj Shadow and his "Organ Donnor".

    22)Just the flight by my own would have been enough, but one more year (after that flight) living in Sweden makes sure the tune of my early twenties is swedish Lopptroop and its Fly away ( i even got it tattoed on my feet afterwards...).

    23)Here I am, i've already landed one month ago in seoul and, while leaving it on my way back to Spain, I guess the only way i can find to get a bit of peace in the middle of this stream of planes, symbols i don't know at all and feeling-rollercoasters is to go really back to the roots of beauty and plug my ears to Satie and his Gymnopedie Nr. 1.


    OK, i think it's enough. I hope this doesn't feel like bothering or disturbing your blog, just followed ur last question. Congratulations for this place u've set up, i'll keep an eye on it!

    be happy (or try to),

    The Oasis concert when they finally came over in the indoor stadium. Front row standing shouting nonsense right infront of Noel. Then when they sung Live Forever (not wonderwall, because too many people there seem like they only knew that one song) and everyone swayed left and right, people fainted, people cried, stuffy, hot but no one cared, suddenly it didn't feel like Singapore again. that was defining

    Did you hear about the Radio and Juliet performance coming to the Singapore Arts Fest? A ballet about the Romeo and Juliet story, set to Radiohead.

    It was the Greenday stuff that kind of defined my youth: a friend and I wanted to be 'different' from girls and classmates that listened to silly boybands and 93.3FM, so we sang the songs nobody really knew about, thinking it was damn cool. It was silly, really, because only in my 20s did I realized the crudeness of most of the lyrics, and how fecking ignorant and stupid I must have sounded in those days!

  • popagandhi · 1 year ago
    @shawnb i know!! but i was 12 in 1997, and it only started making sense for me in 1999, which is why i said you can take your time to figure out what these albums mean to you :)
