Here are my week two hundred and forty nine recommendations for Three Tune Tuesday
Drum roll please.....
Radiohead - Everything In Its Right Place
I've covered Radiohead's The Bends and OK Computer in recent weeks, so this week Kid A is in my sights. Again Radiohead were looking to reinvent themselves. After the guitar-driven intensity and massive success of OK Computer, we all expected an even bigger rock statement. The lads didn’t get the memo and had other ideas!
Instead, the band delivered something fragmented, electronic, built from synthesizers, drum machines, modular experimentation, and abstract lyrics. Sonically, Kid A draws heavily from electronic pioneers like Aphex Twin and Autechre.
Tracks such my first choice here “Everything In Its Right Place” and “Idioteque” foreground looping textures and digital manipulation over guitar riffs. Thom Yorke’s vocals are frequently processed, obscured, or emotionally distanced, reinforcing the album’s themes of alienation and technological unease, a theme they come back to time and again.
Let's have a little listen shall we?
Radiohead - Optimistic
Lyrically, Kid A abandons traditional linear storytelling in favor of fragmented imagery and emotional suggestion. Themes of disconnection, anxiety, environmental dread, and identity dissolution permeate this album and thus it may not be everyone's cup of tea. Rather than offering clear narratives, the songs feel like overheard transmissions from a fractured modern world. This ambiguity mirrors the digital age anxieties emerging at the turn of the millennium when this album dropped. Surveillance, globalization, information overload were the order of the day, making the album feel eerily prophetic in hindsight. In this new world of AI, it worth listening to this album again with fresh ears.
The second song choiRadiohead is "Optimistic", the most guitar-driven and traditionally rock sounding song on Kid A. It was promoted to radio and became one of the album’s more accessible entry points.
Radiohead - How to Disappear Completely
After doing some reading about album before posting, the concensus is that Kid A has undergone one of the most dramatic re-evaluations in modern music history. Initially polarising, it is now widely regarded as one of the most important albums of the 21st century, and that's a big statement. Its bold rejection of commercial expectations expanded what mainstream rock bands could do, influencing countless artists across electronic, indie, and experimental genres.
Two decades later, Kid A stands not as a detour in Radiohead’s career, but as a defining artistic statement, an album that reshaped the boundaries of what music could be.
I'll leaveyou with "How to Disappear Completely"
Three Tune Tuesday
That's right, it's Tuesday folks and for our merry little band of ladies and lads, that means sharing tunes, good vibes and engagement. As another week disappears in the rearview mirror, we have loads of engagement and tunes flying around on Three Tune Tuesday and sure isn't that bloody fantastic! I hope you're ready to share three tunes from wherever you find yourself on this magical spinning lump of rock that we all call home and sure you might even sing us a tune if we're lucky?
It's a time of the week when lovers of music, tunes and craic bring their blockchain community three of their finest and brightest tunes to share and celebrate, so let's roll on and let the tunes flow free.
This is my 249th week waxing lyrical for Three Tune Tuesday and we are still going strong.
It started off with me just sharing tunes into what seemed like a void, but little by little others joined and now I'm thrilled that we have a little corner of Hive where we come and share our tunes every Tuesday, and long may it continue. I almost stopped posting the songs and thoughts a few times, but I stuck with it and now interestingly it is my favorite thing about Hive. I love music and now I have a network of folks around the world who love music too and we share our tunes and catch up with each others tunes and discuss them each week. We get Pop, Metal, Rock, Gospel, Folk, Jazz, Rap, Hip-Hop, Trip-Hop, Reggae, Bippy bappidy Flange Hop. Ok I made that one up, but you get the idea, we are all learning about new artists, bands, back stories and sure isn't it just mighty!
Something that excites me the most is that we even get musicians sharing their covers of famous songs and even their own songs from time to time here on #ThreeTuneTuesday, which is a real favorite of mine, as that takes talent, time and dedication.
We are adding New posters and retaining our core of regulars here on #TTT which is fantastic. Let's keep it growing. Over the years, I have listened to fantastic music shared from like-minded folk from around the globe and interacted with their posts. This has led me to genres I don't know well and to some amazing new bands and artists and has even introduced me to some musical instruments I did not know existed. It also allows me to upvote smaller accounts and find some really interesting people from all over the world, which is heartening.
I hope you enjoy the tunes - be sure to tell me all about it in the comments below and above all else, please enjoy the rest of your Tuesday - smile at a stranger, rub a dog, be a nice human to someone who was not expecting it - peace out.

Three Tune Tuesday Sponsors

Due to a very busy life on my side, the winner posts often come after a delay and may come over 4 to 8 consecutive days. That's just how I do it, so please be patient while awaiting HBI and understand that only my 1HBI is guaranteed. The others are dependant on our lovely sponsors seeing these posts and sending on the HBI. That means some weeks winners may get 3 shares and other weeks they may get more.
