Awesome lineup so far! I hope they add Leona Lewis and Chris Brown though. I cannot wait to see Carrie Underwood and Justin!
I think Justin will perform with Madonna for 4 Minutes, and Madonna will be a surprise guest. They won’t give T.I. two songs.

Great to see Radiohead,they blow everyone away.
I wonder if Chris Martin will be getting his autograph book out.

so their fans don’t care if they get a Grammy; but obviously they do.

I THINK HE WILL PLAY THE NEW SONG WITH TI SONG WITH JT THAT IS ON HIS PAPER TRAIL ALBUM.

Do anything of these “artists” (besides Radiohead) provide anything substantial but ringtone fodder? I mean, I get it, the world needs ringtones… but do we need to award them?

Macca and Dave Grohl…that would be a fun documentary to shoot. Macca’s a weedy and Dave loves his beer.

Radiohead fan here, usual type Not bothered if they win or not.I just know that In Rainbows is fanfuckingtastic baby,

I love how Radiohead joins the parade and their fans give them a free pass.

The Grammys are nearly as shit as the Brits. Alright just as shit,but with more pointless awards is their a best hairstyle award this year? .
My vote goes to thom yorke

Radiohead the band that is famous for their campaign against corporate sellouts just did a Grammy T.V. spot for music biggest monopoly network: CBS. And now they will perform at the event????

I wonder why?

May be couse they are nominated for Best Album of the Year?

There’s nothing wrong with playing the system, what is wrong is to trash other artist (Oasis, Prince) while doing the same thing.

alternative music + 90s = hipocrital.

Can’t Thom Yorke afford a hairbrush yet. White people is crazy.

LOL @ Chris Martin getting his autograph book out.

Macca, Yorke….is Bono gonna be there?

If so, Chris may have to bring a 2nd pair of knickers!

RADIOHEAD rules, and their appearance guarantees the some award…probably best Alternative again, but I’d like to see them win the biggie. This is their 3rd nomination in that category.

Radiohead fans are so hipocrital. Now is cool to be part of the system., let’s watch the show with a “In Rainbows party” theme, couse they will rock the Grammys!

I wonder why the 80’s are back!

By the way M.I.A. should win Record of the Year!!

Alternative = sell out!

Yorke the man who drag about been uncorporated on the biggest monopoly in music industry the Gammys, air on the biggest corporated network CBS.

Yorke is the new Bono.

Thom Yorke did a Tv spot for the Grammys, couse he care’s, couse he wanna win Best Album of the Year.

Radiohead is playing the same old game of the industry, like Whitney Houston, Britney Spears, Coldplay before them, the sad thing is that Radiohead drag about been so indie, so uncorporated, so alternative, but look what happens to all the great 90s bands, they are the system now, they all sell out.

Great generation!

Just like he always wants to be. Just like Chris Martin. They both idolize Bono. It’s OK to perform and be nominated for Grammys. Just stop acting like its some sort of “indie-alt-emo” badge of shame when you are. U2 won best alternative album for Zooropa back in 1993, before all these whippersnappers knew what those terms meant. “Radiohead at the Grammys” poster said it best. Hypocrisy is the worst. No need to slag another artist for attending and participating in awards shows. Bono has always embraced being a rock star. One day Thom Yorke will do the same. Remember, he is also deeply involved in many of the causes that Bono is too. Maintaining his “independent” image doesnt stop him from cashing his checks.

SELLOUT. How stupid is that. Only upper-middle-class college kids throw that term around. Why do you join a band? 1) to make music 2) to get girls 3) to MAKE MONEY. Shut up already.

I agree with you, there’s nothing wrong with been part of the music comunity, what sucks is that Thom Yorke and company promote themselfs as pure perfect artists, trashing other great muscicians, and breeding a new generation of fans who got stuck on the 90s.

I mean it’s obvious that Radiohead care about awards and sells, they say they don’t, but is a characteristic of that generation, jus’t look at Kurt Cobain, he stared that, but he’s dead and Yorke is alive, that’s why he’s laughable for the new generation, you know?They see a calculated messed up hair old man with pretncious music.

To see them playing the Grammy is nothing more then pathetic, where are Yorke principles?

Best comment so far:

There’s nothing wrong with playing the system, what is wrong is to trash other artist (Oasis, Prince) while doing the same thing.

alternative music + 90s = hipocrital.

The biggest Monoply in Music industry and Radiohead is playing there!

Yorke is doing the same thing every major band has done before. What’s diferent?

He sold himself with a mimic of been uncorporated, with the mimic of “I am just a guy in a shirt and jeans”, you know tipical 90’s alumn.

Backalsh?? You bit! and i got a feeling that this is just the begining.

Good for us! we get to see one of the greatest bands of all time play live. I’m happy it’s better than the alternative….We should be happy they are gracing our present and playing for us Americans. Long live Radiohead and better music. Let’s just be happy.

do the Grammys “monopolize”?

Best movie lines in years:

“Cobain had to come around and ruin it all-90s suck. Like if there’s something wrong with havin a good time”

-THE WRESTLER

you never hear actors or TV stars called “sell-outs”? It’s always musicians or comedians? Just wondering.

I think what she means is that Grammys are a Monopoly from CBS and the rest of the industry, i can related to that.

The funny thing is that Radiohead fans and obvious suporters (streogum, picthfrk) that regularly trash the Grammys as a “event of corporated sell outs” are prasinig the event today.

How ironic. Never say never.

The point here is that the Radiohead generation (mid 90’s) drag about havin principles, stuff that we hear all over the 90s:

“We don’t sell out, our music is pure, we’re so punk, so alternative, f*#k the mainstream, f#*k the copororations etc.”

And now they are givin up, just look at the ex-Nirvanas or the pathetic washed out Billy Corgan.

What’s happening to Radiohead and what will happen to them is enivitable, they will be more laughable with time, they need to loosing up (a la Greenday) and have a good time, there’s nothing wrong to be honor by your peers, it’s a honor to be at the Grammys.

But if Yorke keep trying to pull the “I’m so alternative, look at my pain” thing, Radiohead will become outdated sooner then you think.

There’s a reason that today’s cutting edge of music is lead by MGMT, M.I.A. or Of Montreal, great unpretencious artists that are looking back to the 80s rather then the 90’s.

Why is Kanye Wayste performing yet again at an award show? So he can whine that he’s not respected or something sad like that? Hope his vocals malfunction again

The point here is that the Radiohead generation (mid 90’s) drag about havin principles, stuff that we hear all over the 90s:

“We don’t sell out, our music is pure, we’re so punk, so alternative, bleep the mainstream, bleep the copororations etc.”

And now they are givin up, just look at the ex-Nirvanas or the pathetic washed out Billy Corgan.

Isn’t ironic that Radiohead did a song called Karma Police?

How pathetic to see them playing the Grammys just to beg for an award, i hope they sit them next to Prince.

Yeah it is kind of odd seeing Radiohead perform at the Grammys but the last time they were invited in like uh 1998 was it, wasn’t there some controversy for them to perform with David Bowie because the Grammy people didn’t think Radiohead could draw in enough viewers, so the band didn’t show up at all.

So either the Grammy people begged them, or Thom Yorke wants to make his brilliant music more mainstream, and what’s wrong with that? I mean there is enough garbage with Hannah Montana and the rest, it’s about people heard good music.

I do however hope they make a statement taking down the RIAA if they win. That would seriously make my whole day.

Besides I also have a premonition that maybe Radiohead came knowing ahead of time they might win an award. Why else would they show up but not Robert Plant. Weird…

How funny to see Radiohead fans making excuses for them.

I guess werever happens to the band they are always right.

Is this what the 90’s generation will end up?
As unrational stubborn snobs?

Since TI’s newest song on radio is Dead and Gone with Timberlake I would guess that would be the one they perform not the leaked If I. I hope so. I love Dead and Gone.

Great Radiohead …But there’s a new rock revolution called The Fearless ,they are working with Yoko Ono

Thom Yorke Truth, you spelled both un-pretentious and inevitable incorrectly and you’re entire rant makes absolutley no sense. “Look at the ex Nirvan’s and they need to loosing up”. How can anyone take your opinion seriously when you can’t even string together a simple sentence. Radiohead have already proven themselves as a great band. And what are you on about with the looking back to the eighties, instead of the 90’s. Radiohead hasn’t been looking back to any particular era or genre since OK Computer came out. They’ve always been an innovative band and apparantly you’ve always been an imbecile

York is not the new Bono radiohead are great but the best are The Fearless

yes, Bono is bono radiohead are new rock style band but the future are The Fearless ,they are the revolution of the rock bands. w j.Lennon

Dear Paul Macca , time is very short and there is not time….wondefurl Beatles, U2 are Young Old, The Fearless are the NEW. Paul you are great

YET…go The Fearless….York go Home

Steve say this:

“Radiohead have already proven themselves as a great band.”

So that’s beyond the point, many great msucicans have been at the Grammys, but none of them drag about not been corporated mainstream sell outs, Thom Yorke did, so he’s apareance at the Grammys make him a hipocrital.

Like it or not that’s the typical story with all the 90’s bands, once they sell out, fans come out with excuses for them.

I agree with you, there’s nothing wrong with been part of the music comunity, what sucks is that Thom Yorke and company promote themselfs as pure perfect artists, trashing other great muscicians (Prince, Oasis), and breeding a new generation of fans who got stuck on the 90s.

They see a calculated messed up hair old man with pretncious music and draging about it.

To see them playing the Grammy is nothing more then pathetic.

Where are Yorke principles?

Yes, the beginning of the end of the hype of Radiohead. Some of the reaction of Radiohead playing the Grammy’s has supported my argument all along about the lameness of Radiohead. Post-OK Computer, the band made one atrociously bad album after another. Yet, they were hailed as “masterpieces”, because they were “radical”, “alternative”, and “outside the mainstream”. Now, they are making a bid to be more mainstream by playing The Grammy’s. Now, some fans realized that Radiohead is really no different than any other pretentious band ala Coldplay & U2. Except, Radiohead lacks any songs that reasonable people would consider to be listenable. Even if you don’t like Coldplay or U2, you can at least enjoy the songs. All Radiohead has done the past 10 years have been ambient prog-rock and bland rockers. It’s about time that Radiohead fans start taking the Red Pill.

Why should Radiohead be free of any criticism?
you know, it’s really interesting couse they have the most stubborn and snobbys fans on earth, that reguraly trash the mainstream and everything that touch they beloved band (see Prince’s “Creep”).

Begging for a Grammy should be the downfall of Thom Yorke career, unless he stop livin in the 90’s and enjoy life and let the so called corporated artists to enjoy life too.

After all this is 2009 and the new generation aren’t doing the “alternative” thing anymore, it’s funny but the 80s are really back!

3 artists that deserve to be nominated for Best Album instead of Radiohead “In Rainbows” :

1-Kala-M.I.A.
2-Oracular Spectacular-MGMT
3-Dear Science- TV on the Radio

The Grammys sucks!!

Wow, finally people are open their eyes, Radiohead is the most overrated band in history.

Seriously, are we still stuck on this? I don’t care if he is a jackass hyprocrite who trashes other bands for being mainstream and then goes and plays at the Grammys and I don’t care if he is a nice guy anti-conformist who has some mysterious reason for playing that will clear this whole situation up for his fans. I LOVE Radiohead because I think their music is beautiful. Period. I don’t care what they look like, how they dress, or whether or not it is cool to like them. I thought that was what music was all about; LOVING the MUSIC, not the image.

If you really care THAT much that Radiohead are performing at the Grammys…so much so that you’ll denounce Yorke and Radiohead’s music, then you are an idiot.

OH NO RADIOHEAD IS PERFORMING AT THE GRAMMYS GOODBYE IN RAINBOWS I HAVE TO THROW YOU IN THE TRASH NOW IT WAS GOOD WHILE IT LASTED BUT IT’S TIME TO GO I HARDLY KNEW YE

Don’t be a fool. I for one think it’s good that the Grammys are having some better artists perform…I mean, the criticism has always been that the Grammys support crap music and that the artists that perform on it are similarly crap. Now that they have some quality artists performing, all you have left to do is to whine.

And I laugh at those who assume that people are FORCING themselves to like Radiohead albums post-OK Computer just because the critics say it’s good. I listen to it because it’s great – even take In Rainbows. Ten quality tracks, especially Bodysnatchers, Reckoner, and Weird Fishes/Arpeggi. But no. You’re right. I’m only pretending to like it to seem hip.

Good for you, Radiohead. Your music deserves higher recognition.

Hmm, Radiohead is playing because they made a great album, perhaps? Geesh, some of you are way over the top.

And for the record, they didn’t trash Prince.

They just didn’t like the fact that he took down all videos of himself playing “Creep”, which they thought wasn’t right because it’s not his song.

As Yorke put it: “It’s our…song.”

This entire discussion is a joke. It is quite obvious that lil wayne is going to clean house for everything including album of the year. Who the fuck cares if radiohead plays there. They will NOT win because lil wayne is more “talented.” Its bullshit but its the truth. Lil waynes entire album can be heard just by walking in the ghetto and listening to the blacks yell their tribal chants. Its just absurd that he is going to win.

It amuses the hell outa me that there are so many people here trashing Radiohead. There the best band on the plaent. Those that dont agree, simply dont know music. If you’ve ever picked up an instrument and learned how to play, then you’d know what I mean. LOSERS

@Kevin:
I’m not the biggest Radiohead fan. I mean, they’re good, I just haven’t gotten into them. But, your comment makes no sense. I’ve picked up an instrument and learned to play it. It hasn’t changed my musical taste. It doesn’t change your recognition of good or bad music. Or, it didn’t for me.

Well, yeah, Radiohead’s preforming. That’s cool.

Paul McCartney might play “Back In The USSSR” and “I Saw Her Standing There.” Those are the two songs that featured Grohl on drums at the Liverpool fesival. MACCA also getting married again-this time to a classy and attractive female WHO DOES NOT NEED HIS MONEY !

Yorke is a great live vocalist. Any Radiohead song will be fine but they better not play “Creep”.

‘In Rainbows’, is far from Radiohead’s best work. But even mediocre Radiohead, is still miles better than the vast majority of other music out there.

I do admit I was surprised to hear about them perform at the Grammys. It does seem a little out of character for them.

But if their goal is to give ‘In Rainbows’ a little more exposure, then that’s fine. They’ve certainly paid their dues. They are the ones who took a huge financial risk, and did it without a major label.

So many people got the album for free in the beginning, so I have absolutely no problem with them giving the album a little Grammy promotion, to maybe help recoup some of those lost sales.

Plus, any opportunity to see Radiohead on television is a nice treat.

TV on the radio sucks! I do agree with MGMT and MIA, but I really dislike Dear Science. In Rainbows is the best albumn of the last few years without question.

I dont get why so many people are begging on radiohead. jeeez this band is sensational, and itll awesome to see them perform.

I agree with you, there’s nothing wrong with been part of the music comunity, what sucks is that Thom Yorke and company promote themselfs as pure perfect artists, trashing other great muscicians (Prince, Oasis), and breeding a new generation of fans who got stuck on the 90s.

To see them playing the Grammy is nothing more then pathetic.

Where are Yorke principles?

5 great legendary albums that never won a Grammy:

1-The Velvet Underground & Nico
2-Prince-Sign O’ The Times
3-Pink Floyd Darkside of the Moon.
4-Bob Dylan-Blonde on Blonde
5-The Clash-London Calling.

So who cares about this stupid corporated show.

They sure trash Prince and the radiohead fans embrace it, come on, the whole 90’s grunge scene was based on critizised the 80’s, now this guys are testing the meaning of been so popular and so out there.

They are on the same level of Michael Jackson and Madonna now, the world is going to follow there greatachievements and they errors equally.

Somebody say it better here:

“Why should Radiohead be free of any criticism?”

If you give it you have to take it.

Maybe Yorke just wants to gain some fans and finally receive the recognition that radiohead really deserves.Even if you do not enjoy their music that is your opinion and you are entitled to it, but i remember not too long ago when i though “what the hell is this” when listening to them, but over time they grew on me and became my favorite band. I had a change of heart which is maybe what Yorke has had with the grammys. You shouldnt bash on him for deciding to do this now while so many other artists,who dont deserve the nod and who dont deliver the caliber of innovative music that radiohead does(album after album), do the exact same. I did listen to MGMT, TVOTR, and M.I.A. albums and they all definitely deserve more nods than some artists but not any more than RH do. RH make great, complicated music that doesnt give away all its secrets at once. Im a youngin so maybe you wont pay attention to my opinion, but if their live performance is as great as usual(which is a problem for many artists)than some of you may hear what i mean.

Talent or succes doesn’t have any to do with this.

The point is Radiohead is playing the system, they agree to play the biggest corporated event in music, Thom Yorke even made a Tv spot for god sake!

He’s no diferent then Kanye West or Kelly Clarkson.

What’s next? Radiohead on American Idol?

Also i think an artist that would release an album and let the consumer pay whatever he/she wanted might just be doing it for their fans, who want to see them receive the recognition no matter how much they do not like the awards(I mean really, Who does?), or to try and reach out to new fans.

Metallica need to perform for their first big hit in long time.

people who really like radiohead tend to get overly passionate. i think thats fair to say, given that i am a radiohead fan and i tend to be passionate about their music as well.

i also understand how people can think that they are wayyyyyy overrated. if you’ve heard their music and havent gotten it, all of this gushing can be pretty frustrating.

nonetheless, they are a talented group of musicians who treat their music as an art form. as a radiohead fan, and speaking for all radiohead fans, if you can acknowledge the fact that they are generally talented musicians and artists. we can all get along.

we think theyre up there with the beatles and pink floyd and all the other generation-making bands and we’re pretty enthused about that. but i can see how that would be annoying.

my point is: radiohead fans like radiohead and by like i mean LOVE. and we want people to share our love. unfortunately we need to learn that everyone has their own opinion and perception of music.

that being said, whoever said MGMT’s album was better than In Rainbows is a MORON.

haha

To the boy or girl twho say that radiohead is better then MGMT, TV on the Radio and MIA all together, WAKE UP!!!! we’re livin on 2009, there’s a new generation that think that Thom Yorke exentricities are so laughable.

Do you really think that the new generation think that the whole 90’s MIMIC of “I’m in pain, I don’t wanna be a rock star, I’m a pure artist, I don’t have a great voice, I am uncorporated” is cool?

Dude you need to wake up!!, People wanna party up!!, go to myspace for a little bit, the cutting edge of rock got nothing to do with pretentious snobs’.

Since the late 90’s Prince give away freebies for years from his website and he din’t drag about it., I mean he din’t do a press released or anything.

It’s really interesting that a band like Radiohead did the whole pay werever you want thing after the TREND of myspace and Itunes, they did it becouse they need it to be on top, Prince did it long before them.

In 2006 Prince was honor with the lifetime achievement award at the Webby Online Awards (”The Internet’s Highest Honor.”) for his use of the Internet to distribute music and connect with audiences, years before NIN and Radiohead contributions.

“long before MySpace and iTunes, Prince used the Web as a new way to distribute music, premiere videos and build his relationship with his fans.”
-Tiffany Shlain, founder of The Webby Awards

When Radiohead did the pay what you want thing they turn it into a shamless self promotion “we coming to save the industry” publicity stunt, Yorke even dare to say that he was the first one to do it, then realese the album on stores and it sold $$$ to number one.

But anyone who still dress like it’s 1993 gotta be outdated anyway.

Dude he said that he thought MGMT, TVOTR, and MIA are all deserving of nominations and that radiohead is also a deserving artist. Come on TVOTR would even say radiohead are better. Without them TVOTR probably wouldnt sound like they do. Wasnt one of their EPs called OK Calculator?

I don’t know how this thing turn into Radiohead vs Prince (I am no fan of ethier) but one thing is true:

The 80’s artists din’t rejected awards and fame, they embraced, but they do have what it takes, everybody knows that Prince is a genius, may be Thom Yorke too, but Yorke is such a artsy snobby that he obvisuly will loose credibility (and fans) with time, just look at Rage Against the machine, this guys are still talking about third world country poverty while livin in Hollywood mansions.

Any Thom Yorke fan that still belives that the guy has some credibility gotta be blind!

Hey don’t play with my girl MIA, she’s the boom, she might be new and she might be underground but Kala is by far better album then In Rainbows, but she doesn’t care about the Grammys. Anyone who participate on the Grammys gotta be a sell out.

Radiohead the band that is famous for their campaign against corporate sellouts just did a Grammy T.V. spot for music biggest monopoly network: CBS. And now they will perform at the event????

I wonder why?

May be couse they are nominated for Best Album of the Year?

There’s nothing wrong with playing the system, what is wrong is to trash other artist (Oasis, Prince) while doing the same thing.

alternative music + 90s = hipocrital.

Radiohead on the same level of Pink Floyd???, boy do you Yorke fans take to much mushrooms, I can name you twenthy 80s bands far better then Radiohead:

1-Talking heads
2-REM
3-U2
4-Echo and the Bunnyman
5-Police
6-Duran Duran
7-Blondie
8-Berlin
9-Dep eche Mode
10-The Cure
11-The Replacements
12-Sioxuxie and the banchees
13-bauhaus
14-The Time
15-Midnight Oil
16-Soda Stereo
17-Art of noise
18-the Smiths
19-The pixies
20-The melvins

Best comment so far:

“Why should Radiohead be free of any criticism?”

If you give it you have to take it!

Wow! can’t belive this, Radiohead fans are making excuses for them becouse they agree to play in the sucky Grammys!!!!! ha,ha, they even made a TV spot for it!!!!!!!!

Hypocrisy works in mysterious ways!

I’m 16 years old, I love MIA and I love MGMT, I don’t know anyone who owns a Radiohead album, I din’t even knew that people still dress like it’s 1994.

I will watch the Grammys and I hope that MIA get what she deserves.

How funny, I just saw a Grammy spot on CBS were they anounced the performances, they mentioned Radiohead after the Jonas Brothers.

So I guess it’s over. Thanks a lot Thom Yorke.

How funny to see Radiohead fans making excuses for them.

I guess werever happens to the band they are always right.

Is this what the 90’s generation will end up? 
As unrational stubborn snobs?

Just take a look at what Kevin (a Radiohead fan) posted here:

“The best band in the planet. Those that dont agree, simply dont know music”

This is tipical of Radiohead fans, they have to be right, if we don’t agree with them we don’t know music!!!! So let’s forget about the Beatles, U2, the Stones etc.

Man these Radiohead fans are turning into Tom Cruise and Thom Yorke is looking really creepy.

I wanna cry, they really did a tv spot for the grammys, i’m so dispaointed. : (

Hey cut the crap, Ed O’Brien and some members of Radiohead are huge Prince fans.

Stop the hate!

I find it funny how most of the messages that are bashing on Radiohead have really pitiful grammatical mistakes.
Just an observation.

sorry but i really dont think radiohead needs more recognition and need to promote in rainbows blah blah blah
it’s an amazing album and amazing band with a huge following around the world
just really strange that they will be performing grammy’s

What’s wrong with Radiohead performing for the millions and millions of fans they do have in america? You may not like their fans, and as one of their fans – the overgeneralizations make you sound stupid. I love radiohead but I can see why someone else wouldn’t. Music like art is subjective. Everyone likes their music. That being said, I see nothing hipocritical with what Radiohead is doing, and you know what, I doubt they care at all what rollingstone and the majority of america have to say about them.

A Former Beatle and a former nirvana on the same stage!.. Awesome!! My two top bands!

Wow..a ex Beatle with one of the greatest drummers/guitarists/singers… .going to be awsome!!!

Glad to see Radiohead performing! Also glad to see many decent artists getting nominated this year (Coldplay, M.I.A., AC/DC, Metallica)

Where to start? There’s so much to say here. Let me start by noting that I am not the biggest Radiohead fan in the world, so their appearance at the Grammy’s doesn’t affect me one way or another.

For anybody who welcomed a return to the “80’s ideals” (lol) where have you been living this decade? You just re-lived the 80’s musically! A few posts back someone listed 20 bands that were better than Radiohead. Half those bands started in the 80’s & stayed there – they were one & two shot wonders, just like a lot of 80’s acts. I also love how the Pixies & the Melvins were brought in to bolster the list, since they helped influence Nirvana, who everyone is now complaining about! That being said, I do have to agree w/the person – I do think some of those bands really ARE better than Radiohead!

Finally, to all those too young to remember the 90’s & are crying about the situation now – just where were you this past decade? Everyone will yell that they hate Nickelback & that it’s too commercial. They’ll also blame someone like Pearl Jam for causing this – trust me, what PJ did in 91 had no impact on Nickelback’s success TODAY. Besides, you all had the chance to stop the Nickelback’s of the world, so why didn’t you?

For those of you who want the 90’s gone, well I don’t blame you. I lived through it, and I always welcome a younger generation bashing the past, cause it’s your right. I also think the 80’s deserve a good thrashing as well. For that matter, so do the 70’s & the 60’s too. Why all of you don’t want to wreck it all is beyond me.

BTW, for all those who scream Yorke is selling out, allow me to bring up another, ahem, instance that is reminiscent of this:

A radicalized rocker known for being anti-establishment shows up in the broadcast booth of “Monday Night Football” one of the most mainstream TV shows ever. His name:

John Lennon

Just a reminder from the past…

John Lennon appearing on an unrelated Monday Night Football program, is not exactly the same as appearing on the MUSIC INDUSTRY’S self-congratulatory suckfest.

at Grammy show that’s the rumor
that I heard
And then they record a duet album
and world tour .That would be so
awesome .

Grammy event of the century .

First single reunited and it feels
so good from peaches and herb

those stating radiohead as unlistenable are the same who watch the grammy’s every year for Kanye West.

prince’s creep was supported by radiohead. youtube videos by fans who filmed the performance were legally taken down, and radiohead objected.

I see a lot of comparisons…most of them don´t mean anything. Comparing bands as different as Soda Stereo and Radiohead is like comparing Picasso with Van Gogh. The only thing that ties them together is painting, other than that, you can´t say any one of them is better, they both painted different things for different reasons. In order to say one band is better than the other you have to decide on which parameters you will base your reasoning… Parameters that most probably don´t mean shit to either band.

Sorry people… thats just the way it is…

Radiohead fans- tell your band to get better producers for their albums.

woah there buddy, you honestly believe viva la vida was better than in rainbows??? did you listen to either album??? chris martin sounds like a bad thom yorke impersonator.

also they have never written an interesting song in their life.

i guess i shouldnt expect anything more from a real, honest to goodness t.i. fan.

Yay! Macca!

Too bad there isn’t an award for being better than everyone else. Paul would’ve won it every year.

I go through these comments and EVERYONE mentions radiohead good or bad…i think radiohead is an excellent band they are doing something different and that’s why radiohead fans feel proud and worship their music its more than just radiohead is better than everyone else its much larger than themselves it’s not by where they perform live not by where they buy their godamm coffee or whatever nonsense its in the words its in the music everything else is just detail the same thing happened to Lennon look what we did to him. and EVERYONE hated the sex pistols. the point is we are living in an age where music has lost its touch… MTV killed music then came VH1 to just piss in its face I’m sorry if you don’t like to hear it but good music is really hard to find I’m not trying to be a snob I’m just sick of hearing petty rappers talk about their cars and clothes and shoes and jewelry I’m sick of bubblegum plastic Disney children on T.V, watching sweet 16’s and certain bands trying way too hard to sell and sound good i.e.…Coldplay’s viva la Vida.
Who cares about the Grammy’s? not me I just hate to see a good band get eaten up by the masses. goodnight.

Wow. I’m ecstatic. Radiohead will make everyone else look silly.

Helo(SP?), I think Radiohead is unlistenable. So is Kanye West. I’m skipping The Grammys this year. They are celebrating a really weak year in music. I’ll put on “Raising Sand” and hope that Robert Plant & Alison Krauss get the recognition they deserves.

BTW, calling Radiohead sellouts is pretty stupid. They’re one of the most critically acclaimed bands ever. Does it really surprise anyone that they’re playing the grammys? Their music has always been outside of the mainstream and still is regardless of whether the mainstream is starting to pay attention to them. Hopefully, the performance will be a nice kick in the balls to the top 40 listeners watching at home.

I think that some Radiohead fans are missing the point:

I never expected to see Radiohead suporting that stupid award show, if they go is because they care, din’t seem to me that they care, but you know what, I never expected Greenday to play the system etiher, or the ex-Nirvanas. Look at the Foo’s, Is that the same guy who use to make fun of the mainstream? Look at Chris Cornell he ended up doing Michael Jackson covers, the guy from Soundgarden!!!! Even the great Billy Corgan ended up bashing his own fans because the lacks of sales.

So I feel let-down and betrayed over the years, then I realize that this is a process, bands change, they evolve, the problem here is that most of the fans don’t change, I have friends who still hate Daft Punk for doing a Kanye West album, even I was surprise by Dave Grhol doing Prince’s Darlin Nikki, because our generation forgot about the good things in Pop music, the good things about superstars. You know that line in the movie The Wrestler : “There’s nothing wrong with a good time” it’s a straight shot to the 90’s generation and they are right.

The point is that all these bands from the 90’s are starting to do the same stuff that the bands from 80’s were criticize, Do you guys remember when Eddie Vedder screams: “this is not a tv show” in that video? just look at the man right now, he’s Mr. Hollywood.

Obviously Thom Yorke decision to play at the Grammys put him in the hot seat, but my guess is that he’s ready to evolve, he’s ready to have a good time and embrace been a superstar, like it or not a comercial one. But you guys gotta wake up and smell the cofee, This is 2009.

The problem here is that Radiohead fans are the only ones who think they are the best band in the planet, let me explaine.

I don’t like Prince but I think he’s a genius and he’s Creep cover was much better then Radiohead version.

I hate Madonna but she’s a very smart women.

M.I.A. Kala isn’t my thing but is by far the best album of the year.

I don’t have to be a fan to know what is the correct thing, what is good or not.

Radiohead fans never accepted the band errors, they are probably the blindest fans ever, In rainbows is a really good album, but is not one of the Top 10 of the year.

Radiohead deserves to win Best Album because they were robbed with Ok Computer, but let’s face it, overelaborated and pretentious doesn’t mean is the best.

I’m a Radiohead fan but I try not subscribe to the “Thom Yorke is deity” club. Love the music for what it is folks…not for the fact that it makes you feel unique…educate yourself history always repeats itself…the Beatles,U2 RH is not immune to this.

well you know usually you are a fan when you happen to think a band is the best in the world… thats just “usually the next step” you are wrong though i do think they made a huge mistake with “creep” i think its a god awful song i think the grammys are shite and thom yorke probably does need a shower..haha

Im just going to say that i think Radiohead is a great band that makes great creative music. I do not think i am the only person who believe this since they are so acclaimed and have such a massive fan base. As long as they keep making good music i dont really care if they play the grammys since i will be enjoying their performance.

However if you do not agree with me that is fine because it is your opinion. Like someone else said in these comments, “music is subjective.” Let everyone enjoy the music they prefer and go on with your lives.

M.I.A. Kala is the “real” best album of the year, it was nominated only for Record of the Year, I guess been commercial and popular counts for the Grammys.

I think it’s funnier to read some of the arguments AGAINST Radiohead. Do you guys basically just copy-and-paste each others’ arguments?

Here’s basically a summary of every argument:

“See, the PROBLEM is that ALL RADIOHEAD FANS think that their favorite band is the BEST BAND EVER and that nobody else deserves ANY recognition. Thom Yorke is a HYPOCRITE. Lol, In Rainbows was only like, the fifth best album of the year! I mean, first Grammys, then what? Will Radiohead go on AMERICAN IDOL? Will Yorke show off his house on MTV CRIBS? Will they start writing three-minute pop songs just to get rotation on the RADIO?”

…uh, no. They won’t. They’re not about to start a VH1 reality show. It’s fucking music, people. That’s what the ceremony celebrates. Would Yorke have done this in the 90s? Of course not! But what kind of argument was that? All you have to do is watch the Meeting People Is Easy documentary to see what frame of mind Yorke was in at the time. And with the weirdness that was Kid A, I highly doubt the Grammy promoters WANTED Radiohead to perform. Since then, the band has become much more song-based, focusing more on melody than texture. There’s no reason why they shouldn’t perform, they’re nominated in just about every category. But, no, you’re all right. Radiohead just want to win and sell more records. It’s not like they gave away their last album for FREE or anything. They’ve always been keen promoters. Anyone remember the Kid A blips? The artsy videos? The releasing of “stems” so that people could remix the tracks? They don’t have a problem with selling records or reaching out to new fans. They’re just great at making sure the music doesn’t suffer as a result.

So, go on, continue the argument, name twenty 80’s bands that are better than Radiohead. I, for one, will be watching the Grammys with a mild interest as I do every year. After Radiohead perform, I’ll probably get bored and surf the internet until the Best Album award is given out. I personally feel that In Rainbows deserves to win. Maybe you don’t. That’s okay. I hope they Reckoner, though. I know House of Cards is the nominated song, but Reckoner is the most recent single and is the best song on the album. Imagine that with an orchestra! It would be pretty great.

Radiohead have played talk shows, Saturday Night Live, other awards ceremonies, and participated in a taped acceptance of awards before. They have made music videos and appeared on MTV. How is appearing at the Grammy’s this year any different? How does it devalue their work, as some people have described?

There are a handful of fine filmmakers who could be considered great artists, does it devalue their work if they show up at the Academy Awards? Does it dampen their artistic impact if they win? These are people who, like Radiohead, may be uncomfortable in their suits, playing that role for an evening. But there are some advantages. It’s a way to show some appreciation for those who have honored your work, or to those whose support has made you who you are. It’s a way to get in touch with a large audience. It’s publicity, it’s entertainment, it’s an experience.

Sharing the stage with the Jonas Brothers does not make you artistic equals. The show celebrates all genres of music, or purports to, and what one artist is doing has nothing to do with another.

Radiohead have just recorded an exciting record full of tunes that sound nothing like what you would otherwise hear on the radio. Give them some credit, and weigh it against this impulse to think they will become just like everyone else.

T-Cap:

I disagree with you, Kala is by far the Best Album this year, much better then In Rainbows, almost every single critic say so. Just google it.

Just because In Rainbows was made by the same band that made OK Computer doesn’t mean is the best album this year, actually I think there are 10 other albums that deserves to be nominated before Radiohead this year.

That doesn’t mean that Radiohead is a bad band, it means that if they win it’s gonna be unfair.

By the way, to answer this comment:

“Imagine that with an orchestra! It would be pretty great.”

I think orchestra with rock is the most cheesys, most pretentious cliche of the art wannabe bands, oh man! I think you need to stop listen to Radiohead, that’s the problem with Thom Yorke THE CLICHE!

Orchestra! god! you just sound like a SNL sketch.

Why are you arguing?
As someone said earlier, Lil Wayne is going to win every grammy. Honestly, who cares? If you win grammys it doesnt necessarily mean youre a good artist, musician, etc, it just means you made well recieved music. Sisqo won a couple grammys in his day and hes worse than weezy. I am a huge radiohead fan, but just give the spot light to wayne, hes probably going to crash and burn like Sisqo did anyway.

I think it’s really interesting to read some of the excuses DEFENDING Radiohead. Do you guys basically are stuck in 1997?

Here’s basically a summary of every excuse:

“We should be happy they are gracing our present and playing for us Americans. All you have to do is watch the Meeting People Is Easy documentary to see what frame of mind Yorke was in at the time. Radiohead make great, complicated music that doesnt give away all its secrets at once. Those that dont agree, simply dont know music”
Man, you Radiohead fans are so full of yourself, I think that’s the main reason why Radiohead music isn’t the cutting edge anymore, the principles and ideas of the new generation are totally the opposite of those comments, neither Arcade Fire fans or MGMT fans will dare to say something like that: We should be happy they are gracing our present and playing for us Americans. Really? So we don’t have living genius in America? I don’t know music just because i found In Rainbows so boring? We all have to watch a Radiohead documentary to have a better jugment? Complicated music means good music?
You guys need to listen to other stuff (you know there are other stuff out there?), Kala by M.I.A. is a very good start.

It’s hilarious that this whole conversation revolves around Radiohead. That alone should prove how meaningful they are every other artist only gets a couple of mentions. True art will truly provoke. It will inspire discourse and emotion. Apparently Radiohead has donw a far better job at that than any of the other artists that recieved nominations. I think that alone merits attention. Radiohead: love them or hate them their music matters WAY more than any other musician nominated. Oh and by the way they may have also started a revolution in the way music is distributed. Little Wayne aint got nothin on that.

Best movie lines in years:

“Cobain had to come around and ruin it all-90s suck. Like if there’s something wrong with havin a good time”

-THE WRESTLER

“If there’s one thing that I can’t stand, which has become so popular in the last 10 or 15 years, it’s the attitude of, “You know what? It’s so great because so-and-so doesn’t take themselves too seriously. Nirvana popularized that idea of, you know, forget about your bigger-than-life heroes and rock stars and cool, mysterious, backstage happenings. Kurt Cobain just came out and said, “Here I am. I’m a guy in a flannel. He was a really talented… Freak, yeah. I want my artists to take themselves seriously. Of course, I do. Why wouldn’t I want that?”
-Jack White

The generalizations made against radiohed fans like me are pretty frustrating. I actually dont think In Rainbows is the best album of the year. it was pretty damn boring. I just think that Radiohead’s one (I repeat “one”) of the best bands out there today and has been for quite some time. With regards to the whole sellout crap, Radiohead has really never been against commercial and mainstream success. They’re just against compromising their artistic integrity to get there. It takes a fairly passionate group of idiots to call a band that fought their label to release an over six minute single and that recently let fans choose how much to pay for their album sellouts. Also, for the record, I love M.I.A.

Kala + In Rainbows, I said it was fine if you feel that IR is NOT the best album of the year. I personally feel it is, and I’d much rather listen to it than Kala, which I HAVE heard and also enjoyed.

And Reckoner is an excellent song not only because of the vocals, but because of the string section. Do you know how many great songs have an orchestra in them? Your comment there just seems ignorant. Radiohead know how to utilize a string section and not make it sound cheesy. It’s not like they’re making November Rain.

In order to say one band is better than the other you have to decide on which parameters you will base your reasoning… Parameters that most probably don´t mean shit to either band.

Radiohead are one of the best live acts out there! Look at the list of nominees this year and see who was around back in the 90s. NO ONE, except McCartney and Metallica. This years list will enter the revolving door of one hit wonders and exit with little or no fanfare in the future. Radiohead have lasted because their music is good. Just like U2, RHCP and any other band that has an extensive catalog. Give me ‘In Rainbows’ before you shove that generic MTV bs down my throat!

Ok, I think Radiohead fans are helping to get to the point clearly, I think Radiohead is a good band (no one denying that) but you guys live in a Radiohead/Bjork universe, just look at the last comment:

“It takes a fairly passionate group of idiots to call a band that fought their label to release an over six minute songl”

Do you guys know how many 10 minute songs have been recorder on the POP universe on the last 25 years? A lot!

“fans choose how much to pay for their album sellouts”

Do you guys know how many mayor acts did freebies on the last 10 years? A great example is Prince, he did freebies on the web before Itunes and myspace ever exited (!) plus 3 millions albums for free last year, he din’t ask fans to pay anything.

Every time I talk to Radiohead fans they seem to act like if Thom Yorke invented the been “against the system” ideology, you know, they also act like if the “weird experimental feel my pain vibe” is a synonymous of genius.

I’m not saying that they are not geniuses, what I’m saying is that if you keep livin in that universe your quality to apreciate music outside Radiohead will decrease. (How many Radiohead fans agree that the band it’s repeating themselves?)

There are other music forms and ideas that are very simple and very good too, there are other geniuses doing 6 minutes long songs with a sound totally opposite of Radiohead but fully experimental. Do you have the ears to really listen to Kanye West Last Registration album or White Stripes Elephant?

Just becouse a band made 2 clasics records (Ok Computer, Kid A) doesn’t mean they have the privilege of not been criticized or analysed ever again. Just look at U2, Prince or Smashing Pumkins, they made some of the best albums of the last 30 years and they still get lot’s of trash. You know why? because they still sell tickets, they are part of the popular culture now, so is Radiohead, sooner or later Radiohead will have their U2, Prince or even Rolling Sones phase, people will hate them, people will trash them even if they are legends.

agreed. Radiohead are good but not as amazing as people make them out to be. Krautrock bands have been doing the same thing since the 60’s, Thom Yorke and Co. just found influences that the avg pseudo hipster has never heard of. Also, Dave Grohl is becoming as ubiquitous as Phil Collins in the 80s and early 90’s. Over exposure kids, its getting tired.

The problem, like all awards shows, is that people have different musical tastes. I love Radiohead, and I dislike TVOTR, and I hate Britney Spears. But I know there are people out there that feel exactly the opposite as I do. People read way to much into what a band does. “Radiohead just did a Grammys spot! I’m so disappointed!!” Get over yourselves. They wanted to make a quick few extra dollars after a record company free recording process and essentially free album. Nothing worng with that. Its all about the music, right? And everyone has their own opinion. Personally, I think if an awards show like the grammys does exist, each category needs to be decided by THAT CATEGORIE’S FANS. Namely, other musicians from alternative, rock, hip hop, pop, whatever. For awards like best album in any genre, a conglomerate is needed of people from all genres to judge. These are just some thoughts. Personally, I think In Rainbows was the best album of the year, followed by Kala and then Viva La Vida. But other people feel differently. The Grammys are a broken system of old white men voting for music they’ve never heard or understand. Time for change. Just some thoughts.

Thank goodness somebody said it – the last 2 posts below me are great. Over time everything comes into the mainstream, to varying degrees. Even the freakin’ Velvet Underground eventually came into the mainstream, though it took a little longer. No one can stay out of site forever.

…Just wanted to make an adjustment to RADIOHEAD AND MORE’S post:
Radiohead made 3 classic albums – you forgot The Bends….better than Kid A.
Also, I ABSOLUTELY agree that Radiohead are simply repeating themselves. In Rainbows was an improvement over the two sets before it, but hardly anything to jump up and down about….
and I was disappointed with their live show for the first time on this tour. The OK Computer shows were their peak.

And when they come to the mainstream, they are no longer the cutting edge, that’s why Thom Yorke is the Michael Jackson of this generation and theres nothing wrong with that, Michael Jackson was cool once and he won so many Grammys.

Kala is by far better album then In Rainbows and for many “experts” is the best album of the year, it’s a shame that M.I.A. is nominated for just one award, she’s the new Radiohead. How ironic.

Radiohead should win hands down, but why all the hatin on lil wayne? That dude rocks too. Coldplay sucks and doesnt not even deserve a nomination.

Are people really causing this much of a fuss over In Rainbows? Give credit where credit is due, the album is brilliant and a further advance in their style. No band changes style so radically from album to album, they are daring innovators. I mean, really, some of you people wouldn’t even nominate it for album of the year? Please.

Here we go:

“No band changes style so radically from album to album”

Radiohead fans think that rock music stared with Nirvana.

Yes In Rainbows is good and Radiohead are very talented but there’s have been really good music before the 90’s you know that, uh?

I think Kala is the best album of the year, MIA should win Record of the year.

Well i din’t see In Rainbows on any respected Top Ten list, I think critics prefer Lil Wayne or MIA, even Coldpay Viva la vida got better reviews then In Rainbows.

Just google best albums of 09.

I totally agree with you, MIA Kala was released on 2007 and everybody still talking about it, I try to listen to In Rainbows and I fell sleep.

Exactly, not even pitchfork or stereogum put Radiohead’s “In Rainbows” on their Top 10 albums of the year. It was a true disappointment album, full of ridiculuos noise and over elaborated ballads, probably the most self-consciousness album I ever hear, if they keep doing stuff like that Radiohead will turn into a cartoon of themselves.

The five albums that should been nominated for the Grammy of Best Album of the year:

Tv on the Radio-Dear Science
Fleet Foxes-Fleet Foxes
of Montreal-Skeletal Lamping
Tha Carter III-Lil Wayne
Kala-MIA

I totally agree with you, those are the best ones, I dont get why radiohead fans keep tripping, they don’t have a shot anyways. Lil wayne will kick their a***s.

MIA is not nominated for best album!!!!

She better win Record of the year!!

who like’s Radiohead anyway?

You say it best man, that piece of drepessing noise burn my ears, they are nominated just because they were robbed with Ok Computer.

I agree with Rolling Stone pics of possible Grammy winners, hope MIA will be ready to pick her award!!

I can’t belive Santogold isn’t nominated for best new artist.

According to critics Lil Wayne or Coldplay should win, both were the most praised albums of the five nominated for the Grammy.

In a perfect world Of Montreal and MIA will be nominated.

Finally some real comments, Who listen to Radiohead anymore? there’s some really crazy stuff out there:

MIA, MGMT, Of Montreal, Justice, Santogold, Janelle Monae, Jdave.

This is 2009 people!

One name:

Coldplay

bit funny that so many people are saying that in rainbows was shit cause it wasnt in any 2008 best of lists. quick note, it was released in 07 so check those ones and you’ll see it in pretty much everyone, plus it gained an average of 88 on metacritic. and “In Rainbows is weak” pitchfork gave in rainbows a 9.3 review.

Five nominated Grammy records of this decade that deserved to win Best Album of the year:

1-Midnite Vultures-Beck
2-Elephant-White Stripes
3-American Idiot-Greenday
4-Late Registration-Kanye West
5-Under Construction-Missi Elliot

Are you people looking at the top 10 of 2008? Cause In Rainbows was released in 2007. Still why would you go by what critics say? if you are going to do that well metacritic, which gives an average score of what basically all the critics say, gave In Rainbows the 3rd highest score in 2007 though it only edged out a few other albums by 1 point. Still critics opinions shouldnt matter, its what we personally feel. I’ve listened to all these artists that everyone is mentioning and enjoyed all of their albums, especially MGMT, but my opinion is that In Rainbows is a better album. Thats all.yes people still do listen to radiohead and like them. Who cares? Like what you like and dont care what other people think, but still respect their differing opinion.

If Coldplay wins, Joe Satriani should bum rush the stage like the dood from RATM at the MTV awards…

If Coldplay wins, Joe Satriani should bum rush the stage like the dood from RATM at the MTV awards…

Radiohead better win best album, even though it was released in 2007.

I wonder what song they’ll play, House of cards, I’d heard.
but reckoner would be great.

Even though I am a devoted Radiohead fan and will be selfishly happy to see them play at the Grammys, logic fails on both sides of the argument regarding if they matter or not OR if they are good, great, or not.
Please make sense of this statement for enlightenment:
THIS SENTENCE IS FALSE.
Read a book called Godel,Escher,Bach to see what the implication of that statement is.

cold play has to be the worst band Ive ever heard. No creativity, no real musical talents. In rainbows however is brilliant. The song writing is great. Hope they win or lil weezy.

The Paul Mccartney album ‘Electric Arguements’ is one of the best albums of 2008. It received some brilliant reviews but it has not sold as well as the Macca’s previous efforts. This album has energy, power and sounds so contempory. In fact, it is as close as a solo Beatle ever got to the fabs legendary ‘white album’.
I hope he plays a track off this album at the awards.

HAHAHA SORRY BUT RADIOHEAD WILL NOT BE PLAYING HOUSE OF CARDS… THEY WILL IN FACT BE PLAYING 15 STEP WITH SPECIAL GUESTS.. THE SPIRIT OF TROY, THATS RIGHT USC MARCHING BAND WILL BE PLAYING WITH THEM MY DIRECTOR IS PLAYING

Radiohead pwns. The rest suck. Seriously, after In Rainbows came out i think coldplay should have folded up the tent and quit music forever. They arent even in the same arena of quality. BUT the grammies are an inverse talent indicator. If you win a grammy you suck cock. Therefore, coldplay/MIA/robert plant/other talentless bastard will win, proving the grammies know good music like richard simmons knows vagina.

I don’t really a fuck what critics say about music because everything is relative in the end anyways, trends and how the music industry exec’s want to move ahead direct websites and shows like this. people who say that radiohead is on the road, with in rainbows, to becoming a simple charicature of what they used to “truly” be, are idiots. Has no one listened to their last album, hail to the thief? Two sides of a coin man, radiohead always keeps it fresh. Can’t wait to watch them tonight!

You all should have seen this coming. Its never who deserves to win guys when it comes to AOTY, its always whoever is the oldest person doing a duet with the youngest person.

2nd of all, In Rainbows wasn’t on any top 10 lists because it was released in 2007, go back and look it up. You’ll find it at or near the top of all of them.

3rd. Radiohead got robbed again in the end. In Rainbows is by for a more coherent focused album than Hail to the Thief or Amnesiac. You don’t have to love, but by god its better than Viva La Vida (sorry Coldplay fans, they are a band pretending to be Bends era Radiohead mixed with U2), and that Robert Plant travesty.

In the end Radiohead will wind up being one of those bands when only one member is still alive, The Grammy Association wind up having to give them a life time achievement award to because they snubbed them every time they had a shot.

In the end, the Grammys are a joke and they have been for years.

radiohead was the best
