Welcome to season 2 of the Artists Series where we look at the biggest rock music acts in the world and what we can learn from them. In the past, we’ve looked at melody, music production, lighting, music videos and marketing, but we never really touched on harmony. And since harmony is one of the things I’m asked about most often, and because Radiohead’s songwriting revolves heavily around their chords, in this episode, I will focus on just that.

I've been a fan of Radiohead since the first song I heard. I couldn't sleep one night and turned on MTV and "Just" was the video being played. I loved it...later on I realized they also did Creep which I had heard on the radio but at that time it wasn't being played much where I lived. Pretty sure I got up the next morning and went down and bought Pablo Honey and The Bends. I don't think I've missed any albums ever since.

Fun fact: almost at the end of 1984, the guy is sitting at some sort cafe. He then writes 2+2=5 on the table and a few minutes later gets shot. The math symbolises how the government has broken him, has brainwashed him and now controls him. In the first publication however, he wrote 2+2=4, in contrast to what they want him to write. He still gets shot, but although they control his body, his mind remains his own. The resistance inside him lives on which gives the book a sort of “happy ending”. Funny how one number can chance so much huh?

@FrumiousFalafel 6 жыл бұрын

That's ok. But I would strongly urge you to adopt Mr Wilson's suggestion in your next video that utilizes music notation being displayed while the music is playing. I studied classical piano and then cello for about 15 years. I'm no great player or music reader by any stretch, but even I had trouble following. And even in those cases where I could follow, I still wanted the pace to bea hair slower during those times where you had the music notation and its underlying music being played simply so I could let your point (of the moment) sink in. I mean this entirely as constructive suggestion. Otherwise, your analyses of songs were instructive and elucidating of some themes I had never heard before in Radiohead's music. So thank you on that.

Awesome job ! It´s basically the first time someone actually told me about the stylsitic devices in radiohead´s music that make me like the weird and dark sound... I´d really love you to make one of those videos about my favourite band of all time : MUSE might end up pretty similar to this one but I´ve always felt like Muse managed to make radiohead´s sound a little more accessible by not relying on too wild key changes or too sudden changes in time signature but still containing the complexity in their late romantic chord progressions and incredible instrumentaions of their songs.

Just getting into radiohead and I really do wonder where they get the ideas for a lot of their songs. I mean paranoid Android is just changing bass notes over a chord but sounds soo full and amazing. The compositions are genius. 15 step using 5/4 time and suss / extended chords is beautiful. For the minor to major changes, Debussy and satie experimented with that a bit. And in "my funny valentine", you have a Cm played over descending bass notes. But radio head makes it all so natural and takes it to an entirely original place. I'm properly in awe of radio head. Even more than I was with Bill Evans earlier.
