Sorry m9, you seem to be missing ‘Let Down’ from your list.

As with many of their songs I feel certain that the Glasto version is the ultimate version

I’m glad ‘motion picture soundtrack’ is close in second place cause that’s a big contender

Glad to see so much love for Let Down. Back in my early teens, my too-kool-for-skool friends used to think it was the weak link on OK Computer because it wasn’t miserable enough. I was made to feel like a pop-loving pariah for daring to think it was an album highlight. The late 90s were hard work sometimes…

Let Down is far from my favourite Radiohead song, wouldn’t crack the Top20. But I still appreciate how great it is and why it’s loved and the fact that it’s been left of the list is insane. Guardian, fuckd it.

Did they put Talk Show Host on there? *checks again. Nope. Fucked it.

King of Limbs is far better than it’s given credit for. Separator in particular is gorgeous.

first half is obviously going to alienate a lot of people and fair enough, but the second half doesn’t get enough credit for being gorgeous. Codex as well, like.

always feels like 2 EPs stuck together, to me. would maybe be rated more fairly if they’d been released that way.

The 11 track “version” someone posted on the other thread, scrapping Magpie and Little by Little, and adding Supercollider, the Butcher, Daily Mail and Staircase, really makes it an album. So much better. It has opened it up for me after deriding it for so long.

Best 2 tracks are Codex and Separator still though

When OK Computer came out I instantly thought “oooh, those bleeps at the end of Let Down sound like my old ZX Spectrum”. 20 years later, OKNOTOK’s demo cassette proved I was right :slight_smile:
