OK Computer is a great album, don't get me wrong. But I don't see it as genius, really. I like listening to it, but it doesn't fascinate me, like The Downward Spiral or The Fragile do. Maybe that's just me, but I don't really see it. Anyway, what is musical genius? I see it in Bach. His music inspires awe in me, just like Trent's does. I guess my description for Radiohead would be "exceptionally talented musically". That's my question - what is musical genius?
