I miss Radiohead

Whilst in a car and in the presence of some emerging artists and senior music management friends, I was asked to queue up a song. Only feeling just a little bit of pressure, I chose a track that I hadn’t listened to in a while, Radiohead’s "Everything In Its Right Place."

For the first time in a long time, as the song began, my mind went down the rabbit hole, and I immediately felt like I was on mushrooms (I swear I wasn't).

I also recently had to research a band called Pierce The Veil, which I know very little about, for the podcast. I came across their robust cover of “Karma Police,” also by the great Radiohead.

It got me thinking …

Boy, do I miss Radiohead.

Has any band made as much of an impact as Radiohead in the last 30 years? Other than Nirvana?

Is Radiohead my generation’s Pink Floyd? (However, I will say that I'm not a fan of Roger Waters anymore. I think he lost the plot, and I don't agree with his politics.) …

And overall, it just reminded me — Radiohead is a good fucking band.
