Among the Sheryl Crow, Marcy Playground, Hootie and the Blowfish, Counting Crows, and Joan Osborne... Stephen managed to order both Radiohead's "The Bends" and "OK Computer".
I remember listening to them the first time. I was confused. I was really into the Smashing Pumpkins at the time and I guess I was looking for straight ahead rockers like "Quiet" or "Bullet with Butterfly Wings".
And wait, before I lose you. I'm not saying Radiohead was revolutionary. All I'm saying is that after two listens, I probably went to sleep listening to Radiohead between Grade 9 and my freshmen year at BYU... every. single. night.
I know some of the people that read this blog experienced the same thing, right? What were your favourites? In the high fidelity tradition (corny lame), here are my top 5 (I have been sitting down by Lisha sharing this exact top 5):
1. Bulletproof... I wish I was
2. Nice Dreams
3. Let Down
4. No Surprises
5. Paranoid Android
