  1. so i've been meaning to post about this band for like 2 months... i love them and they're relatively new...

    i was wondering if anyone knew them or liked them??

    if not then songs to check out would be twilight, hey lady, secret life, angels on the moon....

  2. almost everyone i know thinks the bends is their best album...however for some reason the media and lists always recognize ok computer as being it....

  3. oasis are a great band and i like them....

    wonderwall and champagne supernova are pretty famous songs....

    everything else... is just stuff i listen to... dont look back in anger, the masterplan, stand by me(acoustic pool version is the best) are some of my favorites...i love stop crying your heart out too

  4. All I have is In Rainbows. I liked it. Is Ok Computer a good place to start getting into their other stuff?

    ok computer or the bends prolly are what most people would say..... pablo honey has creep...and there's amnesiac...

    i love love love my iron lung.... i forgot about that song when i posted my opinion....

  5. discuss anything from thom yorke, to the songs, to their uniqueness to w.e..

    i personally think they're quite possible the best band of the last decade....

    each of their albums is unique....

    i love yorke's voice...

    and they made paranoid android, creep, fake plastic trees, karma police and so so many other songs...

    let the discussion begin

  6. i thought it'd be interesting to see which band people like the most so we can see if this is representative of the singer people are picking....

    i say pearl jam..they just have a lotta songs that are really good...and continue to do it even today

  7. to whoever mentioned hungerstrike above..

    yea i thought about that song when i did my vote cuz cornell does sing a bit better... i think i heard though that cornell wanted to do a lower part and since they were with pearl jam members vedder was around and sang the part and cornell liked it so much he let vedder record it....

    I think for me what did it more is that vedder's emotion live is so intense...see the mtv unplugged version of black and other songs and i like pearl jam the most of any of these bands..

    EDIT: I wonder what would happen if i added guys like thom yorke..... and just made it best 90's vocalists...for me yorke would prolly beat all of these guys listed....

  8. never thought many people on a gnr forum would like them....

    but i thought they were just ok till recently and just thought they had like 3 good songs..then recently i saw a concert by them on MHD.... i realized how good and catchy some of their songs are...i had never heard those songs before...what i had was like bright lights and unwell along with 3 am and long day

    now i love bent, the real world, these hard times, how far we've come, disease, and the other ones..

  9. like i read from coldplay's lead singer in the rolling stone interview... "I'd be a eunich just for writing paranoid android."

    radiohead without a doubt...i like the song viva la vida though... best coldplay crap since their first album when they did yellow...but in rainbows was amazing and sold on the internet without a record company...

    radiohead had house of cards, weird fishes and videotape...those 3 alone would decide it for me

  10. there's a lot for all time

    however right now..since they just came up with a new album and have these 2 songs that i find amazing and think are up there with my best of all time..esp fake plastic trees....

    fake plastic trees- Radiohead..

    Her green plastic watering can

    For her fake Chinese rubber plant

    In the fake plastic earth

    That she bought from a rubber man

    In a town full of rubber plans

    To get rid of itself

    It wears her out, it wears her out

    It wears her out, it wears her out

    She lives with a broken man

    A cracked polystyrene man

    Who just crumbles and burns

    He used to do surgery

    For girls in the eighties

    But gravity always wins

    It wears him out, it wears him out

    It wears him out, it wears...

    She looks like the real thing

    She tastes like the real thing

    My fake plastic love

    But I can't help the feeling

    I could blow through the ceiling

    If I just turn and run

    And It wears me out, it wears me out

    It wears me out, it wears me out

    And If I could be who you wanted

    If I could be who you wanted all the time

    and videotape- radiohead

    When i'm at the pearly gates

    This'll be on my videotape

    My videotape

    Mephistopheles is just beneath

    And he's reaching up to grab me

    This is one for the good days

    And i have it all here

    In red, blue, green

    In red, blue, green

    You are my center when I spin away

    Out of control on videotape

    On videotape

    On videotape

    On videotape

    On videotape

    This is my way of saying goodbye

    Because i can't do it face to face

    I'm talking to you

    Before it's too late

    on videotape

    No matter what happens now

    I won't be afraid

    Because i know today has been

    The most perfect day i've ever seen

  11. depends on how u define ballad....but..

    journey- faithfully and open arms

    REO speedwagon- can't fight this feeling

    gnr- scom, NR etc....

    scorpions- wind of change

    pearl jam- last kiss and betterman

    temple of the dog- hungerstrike.... give it a listen if u havent...

    Dire straits- Romeo and juliet

    The eagles- wasted time and so many others....

    The beatles obviously had a lot

    Rolling stones- angie

    that's the list right now...it changes for me...

  12. If you haven't gotten into them...

    Champagne supernova

    Stop crying your heart out

    Wonderwall

    Don't look back in anger

    The Masterplan

    Littly by little

    some might say

    Stand by me

    and other songs that i dont feel like naming or thinking off....they are amazing and noel is an amazing songwriter.... they are just really really good.... i just got into them and can't get out..

  13. what you should've done is bought REARVIEW MIRROR.... their greatest hits...

    pearl jam is amazing....

    then look at some of the unplugged shows if u can find them...or see live stuff

    some of their best songs for me.... alive, jeremy, betterman, yellow ledbetter, black, evenflow, i got ID.... just off the top of my head

    by the way..their newest album pearl jam is amazing....just brilliantly amazing....
