Radiohead is well known as one of the world's most important bands of today. While their debut was at the peak, they're road to stardom begun after the success of "OK Computer" - a success that few probably would have predicted when the five of them started playing together in the early 80s after meeting at Abingdon School in Oxford. Radiohead was among the most closely watched bands of the decade, getting some influences on different artists such as Queen, R.E.M., and Miles Davis. They were embraced as saviors of modern guitar rock, only to resurface in 2000 with a new sound heavy with electronics, minimal vocals, and few guitars.

Radiohead have released a total of seven albums in sixteen years. The albums thet've released includes Pablo Honey, The Bends, OK Computer, Kid A, Amnesiac, Hail to the Theif and In Rainbows. In Rainbows received positive reviews, among the best of Radiohead's career. Critics praised the album for having a more accessible sound and personal style of lyrics than their past albums. Explaining the reasons behind the album's delivery and success, Jonny Greenwood said, "It was an experiment that felt worth trying... it's fun to make people stop for a few seconds and think about what music is worth." Yorke described the album as Radiohead's attempt to "describe...as coherently and conclusively as possible, what moves us. In Rainbows is...our classic album – our Transformer, our Revolver, our Hunky Dory".

Lyrics: Jigsaw Falling into Place - Radiohead

Just as you take my hand
Just as you write my number down
Just as the drinks arrive
Just as they play your favourite song
As your bad mood disappears
No longer wound up like a spring
Before you've had too much
Come back in focus again

The walls abandon shape
They got a cheshire cat grin
All blurring into one
This place is on a mission
Before the night owl
Before the animal noises
Closed circuit cameras
Before you're comatose

Before you run away from me
Before you're lost between the notes
The beat goes round and round
The beat goes round and round
I never really got there
I just pretended that I had

What's the point of instruments
Words are a sawed off shotgun

Come on and let it out
Come on and let it out
Come on and let it out
Come on and let it out

Before you run away from me
Before you're lost between the notes
Just as you take the mic
Just as you dance, dance, dance

Jigsaw falling into place
There is nothing to explain
Regard each other as you pass
She looks back, you look back
Not just once
Not just twice
Wish away the nightmare
Wish away the nightmare
You've got a light you can feel it on your back
You've got a light you can feel it on your back
Jigsaws falling into places, places
