Titolo: canzone per canzone

1. The National Anthem
A really funky start, I had presumed it would be
the opener, it has been for most of the 2001 tour, I believe. It was still
a pleasant surprise when it came on.
2. Airbag
A bit of a
disapointment. Jonny, Thom and Ed were all far too down in the mix, you
could barely hear any of the guitar parts. Thankfully, they sorted it all
out afterwards. 
3. Morning Bell
The Kid A version...that sort of
turned into the AMnesiac version half way through, I think. Very good, very
powerful.
4. Lucky
Fantastic. When Thom reached the high
"Glorrriiiouuus" part, I was in ecstasy, and not for the last time during
the set.
5. Packt Like Sardines In A Crushd Tin Box
I don't really
remember this song, strangely as it's one of my faves from Amnesiac. =/
6. My Iron Lung
As soon as Ed started making the slow termolo climb intro,
I knew what was coming, and it didn't disapoint. A fantastic live song.
7. Exit Music
One of The most beautiful songs ever, and one that nearly
reduced me to tears live. A song that you know will always touch you like
no other song. It felt like everything came to a stand still when Thom
started this song on his acoustic guitar.
8. Knives Out
I'm really
starting to warm to the up tempo version off of Amnesiac. It seems to have
more of a purpose than the slower tempo'd earlier version. And thats how
they played it. Great.
9. No Surprises
Beautiful. Almost the whole 40+
thousand that were there were singing along, a magical moment.
10.
Dollars and Cents
I spent most of this song, being annoyed by screaming
girls that were standing next to me, however, not even they could make this
song bad or unejoyable. 
11. Street Spirit
Wow, perhaps my all time
favourite Radiohead song, live and in full glory. It didn't matter that
Thom had forgotten the "Cracked eggs, dead birds...." verse, bless him, I'd
probably forget a few words if I was standing infront of 40,000 people too.
I'm so happy that I saw this song live.
12. I Might Be Wrong
Apparently, it rained a bit during this song, I didn't notice. I was so
invloved with what Radiohead were saying with the music that I didn't
...couldn't notice.
13. Pyramid Song
Everyone cheered when Thom started
playing this song on the piano. I was pleasanely surprised, such a sad song
was greeted with such a great reply from the crowd. There was a camera on
the piano, a sort of head shot of Thom, it was fantastic, seeing him sway
with the beat of this song.
14. Paranoid Android
A real crowd pleaser,
everyone enjoyed this song, myself included. I was left in awe after they
finished it. A classic song, a truely wonderful performance. 
15.
Idioteque
You have to mention Thom's dancing when reviewing this song, it
was almost like he had been struck like lightening, and with the worsening
weather, it wasn't too hard to believe that he may well have been. The song
itself was truely top stuff.
16. Everything In Its Right Place
The last
song of the first section, Jonny and Ed were still playing around with
various FX boxes and pedals about 5 mins after Colin, Thom and Phil had
left. It was fun listening to Thom's vioce after he had left the stage,
very surreal. My sister who came with me looked stunned.
Encore
17.
Fake Plastic Trees
Yay, another of my favourite songs. When the full band
came in for the second verse, I got tunnel vision, I swear, all I could
focus on was the song, someone could have kicked me in the balls and I
wouldn't have noticed. Such a powerful song.
18. Karma Police 
Another
crowd pleaser, everyone was singing along again. Jonny on piano for this
one, Thom on acoustic...I can't remember what ed was doing...just his
distant "ooohh aaaah" with cupped hands I think. A solid performance. I
don't think Thom needed to sing though, the crowd were doing a good job.
19. You and Whose Army
I sometimes wonder whether people get this song.
Whether they understand it's a joke [like some other well known song that
used sarcasm which no-one seems to get, see below] I can almost see it
being used during a fight, I hope it isn't. Anyways, it was almost a carbon
copy of the Amnesiac version, straigh forward, direct and superb.
20.
How To Disappear Completely
It started to absolutely pour down during this
beauty of a song. A little annoying that all the old men were putting their
umbrella's up, but whatever. A intruiging live song.
2nd Encore
21.
Talk Show Host
I am so happy, sitting here, reviewing the gig, knowing
I've seen this song live. How fucking fantastic is this song??!! A B-
side??!! Most bands don't even make a song as good as this during their
whole career. A B-side!!! wow.
22. The Bends
One hell of a Live song,
it has to be said. Yet again, Thom forgot some of the words, but who cares,
the music is so rocking, it doesn't really matter. The Live version of the
Solo is better than the album version, the chromatic scale Jonny puts in
works perfectly. Jonny is a genius guitarist.
3rd Encore
23. Motion
Picture Soundtrack (only played intro...)
Hmm, before you could even say
"Motion Picture Soundtrack, it was over. A shame really. It was just Thom
and a keyboard ...then it was just Thom. Oh well. Kuput it really was.
24. Creep
Hmmm, the ultimate crowd pleaser. A huge surprise too. I'm glad
to say I've seen the wonderfully ironic "Chu-Chunks" that Jonny [according
to rumour] only put in to ruin the song, and something that did warm the
extremely wet crowd on their way home, I'm sure.
Overall, the best gig
of my life. I want to see them again ......and again...and again!!
Yeah, I
was a Radiohead gig newbie. When they next play in the UK, I'm sure as hell
I'm going to be there. Thankyou Radiohead for a great experience. Oxford is
a nice city too.
