Your Sunday Morning Extremely Awesome Vegetarian Post is another one I probably should have written about, oh, fifteen years ago, because it’s Thom Yorke, of Radiohead.  I mean…Radiohead.  It’s good stuff.  Where to begin…where to begin…how about “How to Disappear Completely,” off Kid A?  It might be my favorite song of theirs, but that’s kind of like picking your favorite child, or so I’m told.  But the resolve of dissonance we get around the 5:15 mark wins.

I had the chance to see Radiohead live, once, about two years ago, and it’s even more amazing then that clip shows.  I probably don’t need to go over the history of Radiohead - you know who they are, you know what they play, so let’s see what else we can find to keep you interested.  How about this little youtube gem: previous Awesome Vegetarian Michael Stipe singing lead on “Lucky,” which comes from OK Computer (after the jump).

I would probably be remiss if I were to skip a video of what was, for a very long time, hands-down, my favorite Radiohead song.  What changed?  I realized I couldn’t like just one.  But here it is, also off OK Computer, “Exit Music (for a Film).”

So, three videos in, and we’ve gotten around to talking about two albums.  Just think of the albums we haven’t even touched on yet: The Bends, Amnesiac, Hail to the Thief, In Rainbows, so forth and so on.  It’s actually quite impressive.  But so that we don’t go crazy, let’s stick with Kid A, and let’s just go ahead and look at the first track off that record, “Everything In Its Right Place.”  What I find to be really impressive is that, live, the song loses nothing that it gains on the record by having the ability to loop and re-track Yorke’s vocals to a much greater extent than they do on stage.  Yet still, goosebumps.

So, like I said: you know Radiohead.  This is nothing new, probably.  But hopefully these live performances at least gets your Sunday off to as good a start as mine.  And, as always, takepart and get your vegetarian starter kit.
