Naturally. And maybe I should have said Rihanna, whose voice makes me want to stab my ears out with an icepick.
I thought you'd like her because she collaborated with Coldplay
That was the moment I gave up on Coldplay for good. That song might be the worst thing in recorded music history.
Anyway, my point being that it shouldn't really matter how many people like Radiohead. They do what they want. I have a feeling that this album will be seen as an all-time great album, but maybe people will love it less than me.

For what it's worth, Radiohead still has a pretty big audience and surfndestroy's comment was a pretty strange observation, but this is the same guy who once insisted history wouldn't remember Bob Dylan (or some similarly ridiculous argument).

I've read your post a couple of times, surfndestroy, and I can't figure out what your point is. The two sentences above in particular are complete head scratchers.

I'm having a tough time keeping up with Jorge's RM standings today. Is he a hero or a heel? This will have bearing on any potential apology I may deliver.
The platypus is the alpha and the omega; he's all things at all times to all people.
