Your questions for Radiohead in Observer
Observer Music Monthly will have an interview with Radiohead for their December issue. Journalist Craig McLean offers At Ease readers the opportunity to have your questions answered.
So, please read his message to you all below and get those e-mails out.
Dear At Ease readers,
My name is Craig McLean and I’m a journalist in the UK. next week i’m interviewing Radiohead for the December issue of the Observer Music Monthly. In the spirit of ‘In Rainbows’, I would like to have the fans ask the questions. If you have a question you’d like me to put to the band, whether related to In Rainbows or something else, please could you email it to OMM@observer.co.uk by Friday 16th November, midday GMT.
Please put ‘Radiohead Question’ in the subject box. Please also supply your name, age, location (in the world) and - if you don’t mind - the sum you paid for In Rainbows and a one-sentence/one-line explanation as to why you paid that sum, and/or one line with your thoughts on the whole In Rainbows initiative. I will ask the band the most interesting/intriguing questions submitted by fans.
Many thanks for your help, and best wishes
Craig McLean

Oh.We are recognize as that crazy Radiohead fans
I think I will ask few questions.
I hope somebody will send us article when is published.
What I paid for In rainbows is personal. It’s only between Radiohead and me.
Maybe is only trick to find out how much we paid.
Album is important and not how it came out and how much we paid. We can’t put our price on how much we love Radiohead. (we just give how much we have and all love we have)!
I love Radiohead that much that can’t be counted in dollars and cents ![]()

My question (Don’t steal it):
A few of the (IMHO) strongest songs that Radiohead were testing on their ‘06 tour (Down Is The New Up, Bangers And Mash, 4 Minute Warning) were curiously left off of the album and instead were used for the bonus disc of the discbox. What was the thought process behind the tracklisting of the album versus the tracklisting of the bonus disc of the discbox.

Hmm to say how much you paid of IR sounds mighty fishy. Granted, if I could think of a question to ask them, I’d do it.

you could steal mine since i’m not going to e-mail it:
Would unrecorded songs like Follow Me Around ever be recorded and put on future albums?

My question…
Dear Craig,
Are you really such a piss-poor journalist that you can’t come up with anything interesting to ask Radiohead yourself?

I can’t think of a worse way to gather data than to go to a fan site and ask people that want to to email him what they paid. Worst sample ever.
He’s not using our data for anything more than his curiosity.

Does he think that he has got enough room to receive all the messages? It’s gonna take about 10 GB of texts….

Is this real? If it is, then McLean is a very funny last name.

I’m starting to question if this is real. Damn, I shouldn’t have sent my question in so quickly. I don’t get to get on somebody’s spam list.

Chris - I wouldn’t bother sending in
your question, I can answer it for you
now.
None of those song’s would have fitted
the mood of In Rainbows, if you know any
thing about Radiohead you’ll know they
always try to create an album that flows
and has a cohesive mood.
Can you imagine Bangers and Mash fitting
anywhere on it?!

I bought the Box set for £40, but also paid £1.01 for the download and sent the activation code to a friend as a gift.
My question would be: I heard recently that Thom’s favourite Radiohead song was ‘How to disappear…’ Is that still the case, now that the new album has been released? And how about the rest of the band?

Hey Andy,
Are you trying to say that Hail To The Thief was cohesive???
Chris
November 16th, 2007
so, are we supposed to do his job? even to the point of informing him how much we paid? He’d just have to read the 100 topics about it on the message board. Lazy asshole.
