Thom: So it's nice to sort of just try and dispense with that as much as possible and just go directly to the people who want to know about it first, and just to walk past all that feels really nice. you know, you say the name Radiohead, and you're going to get Thirty percent, at least, not that I'm doing a Murray chart or anything, but you know, they're gonna roll their eyes and Naff off. Thom: Personal comes up a lot at the moment, actually! People say it 's a very personal record as well! So, you know, if you get to this stage and you're still going, there's a load of baggage that's it's difficult to get past when people. It's such a personal celebration, isn't it, you know, in a way! no sort of traditional "charts", no crowds to celebrate it, nobody patting you on the back personally, a few reviews further down the line. And.to not have that, you get the Actual sense of release, like "This is going out, and then, you know, press Return, and it's gone. you then have to sort of jUmp into this other. Thom: Yeah, and then sort of.we had a meeting a few days later and everyone was going "Woohoo" and I just felt like I didn't understand what.you know, our job was done by that point, and it was, you know, sometimes like the worst thing is that you get to the end of making this thing that, you know, hopefully you're proud of, but yet, just at that moment, you should be enjoying the fact that you've worked your nuts off for ages. I'm not sure, but I think I sat at home, and did nothing.Įd: That's been the question today: "What were you doing on the 10th of October?" Thom: But also as you say, extremely strange, I mean the day the down.when people were downloading it. It's pretty, it's sort of, very eye-opening Stroke liberating. It must be quite.sort of.strange to have distance for the first time following the release of a record and not feel like you're under some kind of scheduled plan! and we'll get to the methods, as I'm sure you're expecting, at some point.but, you folzaned it with, you know, no Shows, that I'm aware of, no specific promo outside doing the stuff you wanted to do like the webcast the other day. Zane: Thanks again! You sort of folzaned the release of this record. I really appreciate the music, so thank you very much. "Is he going to spend the next thirty minutes talking about Cheese?" The album In Rainbows, absolutely Superb, and thanks for, for coming through again with another great record, from a fan's point of view. Radiohead fans "pulling their hair out" as we speak. Zane: "This is probably the finest interview I've done in the last three years!" Thom: I think this is going well! What do you think? You know, it's like saying, I don't know, "Cheese slices" are your favorite cheese. Mild for the kids and extra mature for the mature. Thom: Yeah, well, the kids have Mild, and I just can't do it. Zane: It's GOT to be extra mature, Mild I just think is a waste of time. Thom: But only if it's, you know, extra mature. Zane: Cheddar! I mean, people who say that cheddar isn't their favorite cheese are really pushing the boat out, I think. Thom: Actually, yeah, I mean, cheddar with everything. Zane: You're a "cheddar man", you can get on with a little mature cheddar?

Thom: Like nice, you know, the drippy ones. Zane: You do! And your favorite cheese is? Thom: I have to, I'm a vegetarian so I live on Cheese. Zane: cause it's a shame that you can't enjoy the simple pleasure that is cheese.

Zane: Well it's good of you to be unbiased about it, I would never do anything against the cheese industry. It's like, it's just.no, don't go there, man! But I love the cheese industry. Zane: Well you look well for it, for what it's worth, but.Įd: I don't LIKE cheese, I don't. Zane: It's funny, I was talking to somebody, Um, earlier on today about this interview and how I was really looking forward to it, because it's been quite some time since i've had a proper sit-down, sort of in-depth chat with any members of the band, and, Um, and the person said, "Are you? It's going to be a tricky one though 'cause you can't just come out and ask Radiohead what their favorite Cheese is." And I said, "Well why not?" We'll start with "What's your favorite cheese?"Įd: Um, I have a sprinkling of parmesan occasionally on a bit of pasta but that's it! Zane: I'm always recording, Thom, always recording, as you know. Ed O'Brien, Thom Yorke, from Radiohead, thanks for, for joining us in the studio, and welcome back to Radio One, how are ya? Zane: So we said, that would be definitely inappropriate. Zane: ".and this is an interview that requires some level of respect and thought.
