Radiohead performs Lucky with Michael Stipe at Tibetan Freedom Concert
In June 1998, Radiohead took the stage at the Tibetan Freedom Concert, showcasing their track "Lucky," which features on their critically acclaimed album, "OK Computer." This album, released in 1997, marked a significant turning point for the band, propelling them into the spotlight with its innovative sound and profound lyrical themes. At this concert, Radiohead not only delivered a powerful live performance but also shared the stage with Michael Stipe of R.E.M., adding a unique twist to the rendition. The intention behind the Tibetan Freedom Concert was to raise awareness about the plight of Tibet and support the cause, perfectly aligning with Radiohead's ethos of activism and social consciousness. It’s fascinating to see how their music served as a platform for broader conversations during such a critical event.
