Imagine Everything In Its Right Place being the beginning of your Radiohead journey. So intense

Your reaction to HOW TO DISAPPEAR COMPLETELY ---- so pure.

Thank goodness you didn't leave this planet having only heard Creep. This band is just unspeakably talented. It's so mind-blowing.

“It truely sounds like a moving art piece” is more astute than you probably realise. Great reaction 👍

Jonny Greenwood arranged all the strings for this album and others, he's the lead guitarist. He did a phenomenal job.

Damn, you hit the ground sprinting! This is like one of their least accessible albums. It’s so fucking good

"OK computer" and "In Rainbows", man.. I'm so looking forward to your reaction. Love that you loved this, Kid A is awesome.

weirdly enough, people tend to not like this album on the first listen, but its great that you liked it, not exactly an album to start with, but with this down, every other for you should be very easily digestable

Starting with KID A was so wild of you, but so much respect for you that you were able to listen to it critically! A lot of people find this one hard to digest, because it's so sonically trippy. Props, Jack!

I've always thought the most criminally underrated song on Kid A is "In Limbo". If you ever see live performances of that song (a few exist on line from them), that is a STUNNING piece of work in terms of ethereal timing.

seeing people react to national anthem never disappoints.

Each Radiohead album is almost completely different from the others by the way, each are a different journey

Kid A is when I started to realize how immensely great Colin Greenwood is - the magical element he adds (and continues to build and expand). Not to mention really understand how great a composer Jonny is.

You're probably gonna see In Rainbows and Ok Computer a lot (amazing albums) but my personal favorite is their most recent album A Moon Shaped Pool, it holds such a special place in my heart because of it's topics. When I was in the roughest part of my life a couples months ago, that album was there and as cold and depressing as the album sounds sonically, I somehow found comfort in all the tracks, idk there was just something about it, wish I could listen to it for the first time again, a lot of fans say it's their most gorgeous album sound wise and I agree. 11/10

Your reactions to how to disappear completely (and everything else) were perfect. Especially how you weren't necessarily saddened by how to disappear completely, but excited about how amazing and nutty of a song it was

I really appreciated that they didn't just do a sequel to OK Computer...which had been heralded as one of the most important genius works of that decade, along with Nirvana 'Nevermind', Pearl Jam, and Tool's Aneima. KID A had nothing in common with 'Ok', they took a whole new approach, and drew inspiration from German bleep minimalists such as NEU!, Kraftwerk, and Holger Zukay, allowing the guitars and basses to be a part of the electronic tapestry, instead of dominating with full chordal blocks that tend to dictate and lead the way of the harmonic arrangment in Rock composition. 'Paranoid Android' for example, was built entirely from the guitar chords and was probably written entirely on acoustic guitar. But with KID A, they made it very clear that they were creating an 'album' and the songs and production choices were carried out to serve the whole post-apocalyptic world of broken machines and broken people in an awkward alliance.

Really enjoyed your reaction! You are in for such a treat as you discover the rest of Radiohead's work...

Kid A is incredible, and the sound change from OK Computer is just as incredible, also every other Radiohead's album is incredible in its own way, each one is a journey

This put a huge smile on my face, like getting to hear the album for the first time all over again. Glad you enjoyed buddy!

i had a friend listen to this album for (his) the first time. He immediately fell in love with it and listened to it 3 times in one day. He worked at a Top 40 radio station and had never experienced anything like it. I literally watched Kid A change a person's life.

Great reaction! Glad I found this hidden gem of a channel. You picked a challenging record for your first Radiohead experience. Kid A was an album I could not fully appreciate my first few listens - it was unlike anything I’d ever heard before and there’s a lot going on. It’s like a fine wine that gets better the more you listen to it. As others have mentioned, I would recommend The Bends (1995), Ok Computer (1997), and In Rainbows (2007) next. Personally, I feel it would provide more insight and context to start with the older albums first, to see their evolution. The abrupt shift Radiohead took in their sound from the more commercial-friendly OK Computer to the challenging, often bleak and anxiety/depression-ridden Kid A (no guitars whatsoever until the fourth track) sent shockwaves through the music industry, and Kid A remains probably one of the most contentious albums ever released to this day; some love it, some hate it.

Brilliant album, would love to see you react to either 'in rainbows' or ' a moon shaped pool'. Both by radiohead

Awesome video mate, took me a few listens to really take this album in. Impressive it clicked fit you immediately. Can't wait for the following ones

You're going to be suggested OK Computer and In Rainbows a lot and they're both amazing. My personal favourite though is Hail to the Thief.

Where most records today are just a collection of songs, Kid A is an album. Kinda reminds me of Pink Floyd in how complete it is. Everything in its right place, truly.

This album is a piece of art, will never get old.

Man, I've seen a lot of reactions from so many people, but believe me, this is one of the best. Your journey through the album was so pleasant for me to watch because it reminded me of what it was like to hear such masterpiece for the first time and I really thank you for this. I'd love to see you reacting to more Radiohead.

That was my favorite reaction to Radiohead ever.

you are in for an adventure my dude, radiohead is pure art

Oh mate, what a first Radiohead album to listen to! Impressive that you dig it straight away, as a fan (and a guitar loving teenager) at the time going from Ok Computer to this was a honestly tough and if I'm being brutally honest it took me a few years to fully get what they're doing on this album, but now it's my favourite one, and it opened my eyes to other sonic possibilities in mainstream rock and elsewhere.

Discovered this album when I was 11 and it changed my life forever

Wish I could hear Kid A for the first time again.

Not another album like this. The gold standard of art-alt rock. I bought this CD at the time right when it came out. I can listen to this now after over two decades and still have my mind blown by this album.

It's crazy how Radiohead, even going by critical reviews and not personal opinion, could make a solid claim to having the best album in the 90s, 00s, and 10s. When they release an album, it's not just an album release, it's an EVENT.

I wish I could experience this album for the first time again. I literally felt my mind expanding .

My 23 year old story of Radiohead loving began from Kid A. Which is kinda weird. Not Ok Computer (i was15 when it was released) but Kid A. Lots of people around me at the time thought i was a drug addict, because they thought no one in their right mind would listen to this kind of music. I was an author in russian version of New Musical Express magazine at the time, so it was hard to fight with those who adored new rock revolution with Strokes, Vines, White Stripes etc. But i fought bravely. They didn't even fire me. Now, 23 years later, i'm a screenwriter looking forward to direct my first tv-show and i hope i can use The National Anthem in most tense moment of the show. Kid A made me see music in a whole different way and i will forever be grateful for it. Greeting from Moscow.

I do love me some Radiohead! I'd highly recommend 13 by Blur; it's a journey. That band unfortunately never really got the appreciation they deserved

PLEASE do OK Computer and In Rainbows! Loved the vid!

literal studio in the background hears a bass opening the song : ''heavy guitar coming in'' dude what?

If you like more Dark stuff, I highly recommend Amnesiac and Hail to The Thief. They fulfill that requirement in addition to being together with Kid A the albums that most define how unique this band is.

One of the greatest albums ever, thanks for reminding me about this beautifully dark masterpiece, glad you like it. Your reactions are so refreshing, I've watched Beyonce Kendrick Lamar and then this, it's so clear you love music. Cheers!

Motion Picture Soundtrack reduced me to a quivering, bawling mess first time I heard it, glad it had a similar effect on you. My favourite Radiohead song and I don’t listen to it often to preserve that effect it has on me

"Sounds like a moving artpiece" Well, you can actually walk around in a free game called Kid A Mnesiac Exhibition. It's really trippy.

So glad you decided to check out this album :)) I’d highly recommend going back to listen to Ok Computer, and then checking out In Rainbows, Amnesiac, The Bends and A Moon Shaped Pool. My personal favourite is Amnesiac (basically kid a’s twin)

apparently some of the lyrics for kid a were written on paper scraps and drawn out of a hat, i find that really fascinating

man I really want to see The National Anthem live, Johnny Greenwood plays a radio in the live version and it sounds awesome af.

Took me 23 years to find someone to appreciate this so much. Can't wait for more.

Those first four notes of Everything in its Right Place are haunting yet so intriguing

All RH albums rock and they all sound unique! Keep checking them out man!

A moving art piece is the best reaction I’ve heard to this album. Trippy trippy. Welcome to your next music life caveman. You will disappear completely, find yourself in limbo , but stay optimistic as you soon discover everything in its right place. You will not see their version of the national anthem in any motion picture soundtrack, but you may have bad dreams of tree fingers. May kid a rouse you before the morning bell. They will go down as the greatest jazz band of all time. Ps Best amaze face to a set of harp strings Eva!

…chuck klosterman in his book ‘killing urself to live’ wrote a whole section describing how this album is the soundtrack for 9-11…he goes hour by hour and lines up each song to that day. …pure genius.

I encourage another listen of Kid A. This time, on your own, laying down on your bed, closed eyes in a dark room. I like to think the album is split in two halves. Tracks 1-4, 5 is a palette cleanser for 6-10. Like you, Kid A was my first full album experience of RH & I didn’t know what to expect. It has become my fav album of all time. Loved the reaction! As others have said, Ok Computer or In Rainbows should be next!

I needed this bro haha. Radiohead has been on my periphery for a while now and on the words of many that I trust in these things I know that ill love their discography. And here you are to take me through one of their albums and get it all happening! Looking forward to more Radiohead reactions! Looved the feelings in how to disappear completely.

A couple of things; 1. Great reaction! many have said it already, but this isn’t exactly the easiest first Radiohead album. 2. I really admire your interactions with the comments. It’s nice to see a creator actually engage with viewers. 3. I haven’t seen anybody here mention it yet, so I will. Treefingers, despite what you may think, is 100% guitar work and isn’t actually a synth. Just a nice fun fact for you!

Oy mate! I would give anything to be able to go back and listen to Radiohead for the first time. So being able to watch your genuine and worthy reactions is the next best thing.

It's such a wierd first experience to wrap your head around. Loved your reaction, great video

hearing how to disappear completely for the first time is special, especially the opening

I'd recommend, now that you've gotten exposure to where Radiohead goes quality wise, you should start from the beginning and go through their whole discog. You won't regret it.

Please more Radiohead!

Normally i and most other people wouldn't recommend Kid A as an introduction to the band since it's so wildly different from their other albums. Glad you enjoyed it still

Really enjoyed watching you take in Kid A for the first time. When it first came out, it really was a challenge to take in due to it being such a new and unexpected sound from them. However I think because of the many bands that were inspired by this, 20 years later it’s probably not such a challenge. Have just subscribed and look forward to your further reactions from Radiohead and other bands! Keep going mate

FUCK YEA.

Absolutely loved watching you experience this. So many great moments. What an album!

Mate, I've seen every Radiohead reaction on yt and this must be my favourite by far. I'm a musician myself and listen to new albums every day, but never have I heard something that's excited me as much as this band. Liked and subscribed.

The correct reaction to “Motion Picture Soundtrack” that song tickles my soul.

Pure joy watching you experience Kid A! Such an insightful reaction for such a deep and experimental piece of music. I will always remember the first time I heard this album and it was moving. I would highly recommend these radiohead albums - OK Computer ... A brilliant dystopian journey - In Rainbows ... An experiment in rhythm - A Moon Shaped Pool ... A beautifully haunting album Those would be my next top 3 however I would recommend to take to the time to hear all their music. Cheers!! -

This is what happens when you get the voice of an angel/amazing songwriter, and one of the greatest living composers/guitarist, with top notch musicians and put them into a band.

_Kid A_ was the _Nevermind_ of the 2000s, a major influence on the sound of the decade. Great reaction. More landmark albums for the _Kid A_ fan: Pink Floyd _Dark Side Of The Moon_ (1973) Slowdive _Souvlaki_ (1993) Suede _Sci-Fi Lullabies_ (1997) David Bowie _Low_ (1977) Depeche Mode _Black Celebration_ (1986)

Great reaction man, really enjoyed it. I would start at The Bends (1995) and do the albums in order from then.

Great to see this. I’ve loved this band for a long time. I got to see them in Sydney about 10 years ago and they were so good! Highly recommend Thom Yorkes new project, The Smile. It’s my album of the year so far.

Amnesiac is the sister album of Kid A, Definetly a must listen if you enjoyed this one

With Radiohead as my favorite band, Kid A is my favorite album ever... It's just so perfect. And In Rainbows and A Moon Shaped Pool come relatively close. They're close enough to warrant videos.

Welcome bruddah. You got a journey ahead of you. Make sure you hit all the albums, b-sides, Thom's solo stuff, etc.

i always get chills when i listen to this album. i think it’s really beautiful

While I wish you went in order, cause the evolution of Radiohead is something to experience, I'm grateful you appreciated one of my top Radiohead albums.

"How to Disappear Completely" was written by Thom while on the OK Computer tour. Feeling overwhelmed with celebrity, reporters, and adoring fans, Thom called Michael Stipe one night from his hotel asking him how did he handle it. Michael told Thom, "I just repeat my mantra, 'I'm not here, this isn't happening.'"

One of the few bands that makes me react to music like I did as a child. Sadness made to sound beautiful - stick with them they are worth the journey.

easily the best reation to How to Disappear Completely I ever saw here. I'll "fight" anyone that doesn't consider this one the best Radiohead song, or at least to be in their top-3. Too bad it was edited and we couldn't see the full song reaction. Subscribed.

Please keep the Radiohead reactions going. Subscribed

Dude bro your reaction to EVERYTHING IN ITS RIGHT PLACE made me tear up. I love RH so much. Thank you for sharing your pov and finally listening to the best band of all time.

///// ///// How to Disappear Completely by Thomas Edward Yorke ///// ///// That there That's not me I go Where I please I walk through walls I float down the Liffey I'm not here This isn't happening I'm not here I'm not here In a little while I'll be gone The moment's already passed Yeah it's gone And I'm not here This isn't happening I'm not here I'm not here Strobe lights and blown speakers Fireworks and hurricanes I'm not here I'm not here This isn't happening I'm not here I'm not here ///// ///// How to Disappear Completely by Thomas Edward Yorke ///// ///// /////

In Rainbows! I fell in love with Radiohead 1995 and never stopped.

That kind of reactions I had 21 years ago when I first listen this masterpiece. Great video!

The look of wonder during ‘How to Disappear’ is the one I still get.

Can’t wait to see you react to the rest. You’ll be impressed

Now imagine adding in a layer of personal time and place. This shit re-wired my 19 year old brain when it came out.

Great reaction to an incredible album, really enjoyed it. I noticed that you have stated that you will listen to some Radiohead albums offline, but I REALLY would love to see you react at some stage to OK Computer (album before this one) and In Rainbows at the minimum. Definitely OK Computer, there is a reason it is so acclaimed. 'How to Disappear Completely' is one of my all time favourite songs, glad you appreciated it Each album is so different Cheers from South Australia

Love the vibe in the full album listens, from a random 37-year-old dude from New Hampshire, USA you got a subscriber!

Brilliant video, mate! As the others said, OK Computer and In Rainbows are considered the other top tier Radiohead albums alongside Kid A, so those should be awesome listens. They've got some other gems like The Bends and A Moon Shaped Pool, too. Can't wait for the next one!

The journey of emotions that KID A can make you feel is unmatched. People might not enjoy this album because they don't understand it but I think that's the point of it. You're not suppose to understand it...you're suppose to feel it. Who else was completely left speechless at the ending of 'Motion Picture Soundtrack' with Thom Yorke's haunting vocals of "I will see you in the next life" Also, I highly recommend the album Music Has The Right To Children - Boards of Canada Trust me...

The sound landscape of this record is so incredible but you really should have really started from the beginning so you could have seen the quantum leap they took from album to album. Their journey was very Beatles-like that is the band I most compare them too. You missed the shock that this album caused I actually stopped listening to them for years after the album that came out after this one which was recorded in the same sessions. They pissed me off with this record because I wanted OK Computer part 2 and I got this I hated it. Years later after seeing the basement session for In Rainbows I revisited all their work and was stunned by how amazing their discography is needless to say I loved this record when I was ready for it. Radiohead is the only band that I love almost all their music and the handfull that I do not love I can still appreciate the ideas that went into it even their b-sides.

kid a day was a holiday in high school. happy kid a day!

In Rainbows or A Moon Shaped Pool would be amazing and I think you'd love both of those, they feel like yin and yang to each other musically even though they aren't related to each other in the slightest. Also Ful Stop from A Moon Shaped Pool is the most Radiohead type shit ever, that tracks one of their best imo

I love seeing you take in Radiohead!!!!

I´m loving this❤

This video marks the first time hearing htdc in a long long time, and it's brought me to tears, just like the first time I heard iy

If you like video games, you might be interested to know that just last year Radiohead released the "Kid A Mnesia Exhibition" for FREE (!!) on PS5/Mac/PC, which is a walking simulator/visual representation of the sounds of Kid A and its follow-up album Amnesiac, based on the various artworks the band did around that era. If you've ever wondered what a playable visual representation of How to Disappear Completely would look like... it's a mindblowing experience and incredibly faithful to the whole dark/beautiful/surreal atmosphere of Kid A. I myself am not a gamer or anything but I easily lost an entire afternoon just wandering around and it actually increased my appreciation for the albums as a whole.

I love you reaction, good video Motion Picture Soundtrack it's beatiful 😔

Great reaction... I will join u on your Radiohead journey .. from the start I have been with them .Radiohead is a part of me but similarly later on Tame Impala .. please do a similar journey with them.. you already started with Lonerism.. which is kinda similar to have started with Kid-A 😆. thanks..

I love seeing people enjoy new music. Since you enjoyed this I highly recommend listening to In Rainbows next (in my opinion their best record)
