cagedbutterfly: 10 Best Radiohead Songs

cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Any songs you think should be on the list? Let me know.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Well what songs would you have up there?
TheSpaceMan 07.05.16	thats 30% of his list ALA, thats a lot given this band has quite a few critically acclaimed albums
TheSpaceMan 07.05.16	Let Down and The National Anthem are my favs but I've barely heard half their discography i think
Dylan620 07.05.16	9: Moon Shaped Pool studio version or I Might Be Wrong live version?
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Exactly. They just have too many good songs. A top 30 best Radiohead song list would still be too short.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Dylan620: I definitely prefer the studio version.
onionbubs 07.05.16	My top 3 are all from kid a come to think of it (1. Idioteque 2. National anthem 3. How to Disappear completely) from then on its difficult to rank. Tho packt like sardines is def top 10
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Pact like sardines, is that from hail to the theif?
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	No prob bruh.
LotusFlower 07.05.16	Will never get the hype around 9
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Listen to it.
ashcrash9 07.05.16	I've only heard OK Computer, Kid A, and AMSP, but Climbing Up The Walls and The National Anthem are frontrunners for me
hesperus 07.05.16	I don't quite get how you can love Lotus Flower and not the rest of TKOL. But I still think that album is vastly underrated so ¯_(ツ)_/¯
LotusFlower 07.05.16	"Listen to it" Shitty and horrible response aside, it is a sad song with interesting context but the thing is the story behind the song is far more interesting than the song itself. The song just feels like a sad closer but it doesn't pack a punch when you remove the context to it (something no other Radiohead closer does). Hell, you don't even seem convinced you like it. A one sentence list of adjectives makes it seem you just like it because it's a sad story, but not all that great of a song. Since you can't even conjure up a good description for the 2nd best radiohead song unlike almost all your other entries.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	ashcrash9: definitely give in rainbows a listen. One of their best albums.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	CLOVER: Dude, this wasn't a review.. I just put together a top 10 list of RH songs with a quick description for each song. As far as why True love waits is a good song, you literally just explained why. Yea the context of the song makes it that much better. So you can't be like "well the song wouldn't be as good if it wasn't for the context". It's like saying "this song wouldn't be as good if it weren't for the guitar. It makes no sense lol
ArsMoriendi 07.05.16	Interesting chocies, but nothing from Amnesiac? lame 6 is in my top 10.
LotusFlower 07.05.16	Context isn't an instrument. Bad argument. And I said that the context makes the song sad, but it's not a good song to me compared to every other Radiohead closer which is why I don't get the love for it. The fact it was put on the album is way better than the actual song in any way to me. Bad argument. You don't need a review, but three words for your 2nd favorite radiohead song? I wouldn't even be bothered by this if you didn't respod "listen to it" like a massive tool. Bad argument. Like honestly I'd be far more curious if you had an actual response when I originally said I didn't get the love for 9, since your description didn't mean much to me, but nope. Decided to be a tool.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	I haven't given Amnesiac that much listens. It's definitely harder to get into than other RH albums like TKOL.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	How many times are you going to say "bad argument"? You sound more like a tool than me bro lol. And if you had read the intro you'd see that I said this list is in "no particular order". So true love waits actually isn't my second fav RH song. Take this L bruh.
LotusFlower 07.05.16	"Take this L bruh" Wow. Also I'm going to call your bullshit out for what it is. A bunch of bad arguments because all you could do was say "listen to it" and then try to fight the fact that all I ever said was "I don't get it". Also I saw #10 listed as your favorite song so I assumed it was a countdown. That's on me.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Number 10 is my fave RH song. But it wasn't a countdown. Read the intro next time.
Clumseee 07.05.16	Pretty cool list. I'm into it. Mine would look something like -- (Nice Dream) Black Star Let Down Motion Picture Soundtrack You and Whose Army Life In A Glasshouse Backdrifts Nude Videotape True Love Waits
LotusFlower 07.05.16	That's all you have to say? K.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Yea I think I've owned you enuff already.
ArsMoriendi 07.05.16	"I haven't given Amnesiac that much listens. It's definitely harder to get into than other RH albums like TKOL." It's so rewarding
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Clumsee: nice list. Video tape and nice dream are awesome tracks
ArsMoriendi 07.05.16	@ALA: listen to Amnesiac already honestly
LotusFlower 07.05.16	I think ful stop would be in my top 20 but that's about it
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	ALA: Aww I forgot about paranoid Android. I probably would have swatted that out for true love come to think about it. But AMSP isn't bad though. Identikit is definitely top 10 worthy
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	I just can't get into tkol for some reason. I don't know what it is. But that's how I felt about kid A at first so maybe it'll grow on me
ArsMoriendi 07.05.16	"Amnesiac's first 3 tracks, in particular Pulk/Pull Doors are amazing, but I always get alienated after that." Just let it take you into a trance, it's a hypnotizing album man
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	ALA: Well I think AMSP is waay better than tkol. Almost any rh album beats that
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	OK I'll give you that. Until I really get into the album I'm not eligible to give an opinion on it. But from what I've heard so far. Not so good.
ArsMoriendi 07.05.16	TKOL isn't even close ti Radiohead's worst. It's like 5th best "Radiohead will probably never top In Rainbows to be honest" I'd agree if Amnesiac didn't exist
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Yea in rainbows and OK computer have yet to be topped. But I like how they reinvent themselves every album and they don't try to make another OK computer or something.
Lavair 07.05.16	Why is there not a single song from OK Computer on here? Edit: I'm so sorry I forgot about Let Down OK Computer is my favorite RH album and Radiohead is my favorite band and I freakin' forgot Let Down
ArsMoriendi 07.05.16	Let Down is on here
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	I probably would've included paranoid Android if I remembered it. And maybe no surprises as well
ArsMoriendi 07.05.16	Yeah I can agree with that.
Lavair 07.05.16	My favorite RH song tends to change but it's always either something from OK Computer or In Rainbows. Paranoid Android, Bodysnatchers, No Surprises, Nude, etc.
ArsMoriendi 07.05.16	I wouldn't call it a spoof at all. My favorite Radiohead is now and forever will be I Might Be Wrong
Lavair 07.05.16	Oh and I know Kid A was revolutionary and it's the favorite album by many, but I really dislike In Limbo from that album.
ArsMoriendi 07.05.16	All 10 Radiohead songs on In Rainbows are great honestly
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	"No Surprises is great as a twisted spoof of pop jingles but it isn't top 2 Ok Computer for sure" Oh cmon. No surprise is def one of the standout tracks on OK computer. That, let down, Android, lucky and climbing up the walls are some of the best songs on there
ArsMoriendi 07.05.16	Climbing Up the Walls, Paranoid Android, and Airbag > Let Down kind of just sucks whenever I hear it and I've heard it a lot
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	OK then what's your top 2 then
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Really you don't like let down? It's kind of like no surprises. Sounds Happy but is really depressing.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	I did but I don't remember and I don't feel like scrolling up lol
ArsMoriendi 07.05.16	I made a top 20 Radiohead list recently 3 songs from this list are on it lol
ArsMoriendi 07.05.16	It's boring and not really even close to their most emotional song like so many people claim it is.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	"One day I am gonna grow wings, a chemical reaction, histericle and useless.." How can you not fall in love with a song with lyrics like that?
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	LOL pretty gay? But you don't mind listening to an album titled "in rainbows" xD
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	But hey, I love the album so I guess that makes me pretty gay.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	OK I'll fight you. Someone hold my earrings..
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	I'll tell you what isn't gay though. You're user name. Is that influenced from the anime?
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Dude it's one of my all time favorite anime.
FullOfSounds 07.05.16	Radiohead's a cool band. That's all I have to say.
FullOfSounds 07.05.16	I kind of enjoyed FMA myself, but I haven't watched the whole series
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Dude you gotta watch it. The plot is a bit confusing though. But you must gotta pay attention. Really great show.
FullOfSounds 07.05.16	All I remember rn is that their mother dies or something
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Their mom died and they tried to bring her back but failed and it cost him an arm and a leg. Literally.. lol
FullOfSounds 07.05.16	Oh yeah. As for the list, a couple would appear in my top 10 like How to Disappear Completely and Paranoid Android. I need to listen to their whole discography again though
Jasdevi087 07.05.16	"Yea I think I've owned you enuff already." CL0VER sorry but that's your queue to log out my man, you just got owned
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	"CL0VER sorry but that's your queue to log out my man, you just got owned" ROFL
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Yea me and clover got into it. He broke my nose but it's all good cuz I broke his pride.
FullOfSounds 07.05.16	Arguments on this site are always stupid, but w/e.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	diddo.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Still owned him though.
Jasdevi087 07.05.16	I mean CL0VER was right but sure
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	How was he right
Lord(e)Po)))ts 07.05.16	in everything he said basically.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Oh OK. Thanks for that very detailed explanation.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 07.05.16	its not like i was being ambiguous
Jasdevi087 07.05.16	"How was he right" Well, do you honestly think that a song's context and an instrument used in the song are the same thing?
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Don't know what that means
Jasdevi087 07.05.16	Here's Paul Simon's "Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uf4YyXVoWeA Here it is again with no context: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uf4YyXVoWeA and here it is with every instrument removed except for vocals and bass: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QWWVCW1mh0 Notice how they all sound identical except for the one with instruments removed?
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	"Well, do you honestly think that a song's context and an instrument used in the song are the same thing" Well no, but the context of the song contributes to the song therefor it makes it a better song. Kind of like how a song can be better to a person because he or she can relate to it.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 07.05.16	lol
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Jasdevi087: I don't get the point your making man. The context doesn't change the sound literally yes. But depending on whose listening it can make the song better.
Jasdevi087 07.05.16	It's not even the best version of True Love Waits so what even
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	ALA: but I didn't put it on the top 10 solely because of the context. I already thought it was a great song. Clover was the one who brought up the thing about the context. I just basically iced his own argument against him and showed that he contradicted himself.
Jasdevi087 07.05.16	The main point is that context =/= instrument, which is what you said. You tried making a point as if adding context to a song was comparable to adding a guitar to a song. Adding context changes your understanding of the song, but it does not effect the sonic quality of the song. Also bad top 10 imo
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	*used on iced
Jasdevi087 07.05.16	and then on top of that you had the arrogance to assume you made CL0VER look stupid
Lord(e)Po)))ts 07.05.16	" I just basically iced his own argument against him and showed that he contradicted himself." did u tho
Jasdevi087 07.05.16	"I just basically iced his own argument against him and showed that he contradicted himself." but please actually explain to me how you did that?
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	You cray if u don't think how to disappear completely don't belong in top 10
Dappnoid 07.05.16	Context definitely is as important to a song as the instruments.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	You guys just think he's right because you don't like the song. It's all good
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	@Dappnoid Thank you.
Dappnoid 07.05.16	if you ask me its even more important.
Dappnoid 07.05.16	I don't think you understand what an analogy is.
Dappnoid 07.05.16	the context is an integral part to the songs effectiveness, just like an instruments is. not "context is an instrument", come on.
Dappnoid 07.05.16	A bad analogy is an analogy just the same so you shouldn't expect to take it as a literal comparison to begin with.
Dappnoid 07.05.16	So your argument that context isn't an instrument is basically just you picking on someone for no reason then since you understand what he was saying anyways.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Exactly! It was just an anology. I never said that context was an instrument like a guitar. I just compared the two because they both contribute to the freaking song.. people on this site take things too literal sometimes..
Dappnoid 07.05.16	They are just intentionally taking it literally so that they can try to act smarter than you.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 07.05.16	we are tho
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	"They are just intentionally taking it literally so that they can try to act smarter than you" Yea I figured they were just trolling me or something.
Dappnoid 07.05.16	cagedbutterfly I've seen this alchemist guy around the site all he does is act contrarian to feel superior and bully. calling people ableist names and such.
DoofusWainwright 07.05.16	Decent list, a few of my top 10 here
Dappnoid 07.05.16	Id add feral thats their best song
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Well some other guy brought up the argument when I already forgotten about it. So I was just like "Yea I won the argument" to be funny. I wasn't really serious. Even tho I don't think I lost the argument and still stand by my statement.
Dappnoid 07.05.16	what a very nice thing to say.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	ALA: OK I respect that. And I didn't mean to come off as cocky. It was just meant to be satire as I mentioned earlier. Though I still stand by my argument, I probably shouldn't of reacted that way
Dappnoid 07.05.16	Just because I've had an account on here before means I'm less human than you? I've never claimed to not be an 'alt'. I have had a mostly irrelevant account on here before that, I just wanted a fresh start.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Toad: what would be in your list
Dappnoid 07.05.16	I see you bully all the time alchemist.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	I've been on Sputnik for a while man
Dappnoid 07.05.16	thanks toad, and you're nice.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	No I mean make a list of rh songs that are actually good..
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Lol I'm just kidding. I actually like idioteque and airbag alot
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	What's wrong with house of cards
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	And thank you toad
Dappnoid 07.05.16	Hey I'm just here to pump up the jams. Sorry for arguing with you Alchemist.
Dappnoid 07.05.16	House of Cards is great, Kevin Spacey is amazing.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Oh the show lol
Dappnoid 07.05.16	what? Alchemist is the one that misunderstood caged.
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	I see. I'm slowly learning little by little
Jasdevi087 07.05.16	""They are just intentionally taking it literally so that they can try to act smarter than you" Yea I figured they were just trolling me or something." No, we weren't trying to be mean for no reason, you were actually fucking wrong, how do you not get that?
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Oh I thought he was talking about the house of cards thing
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Dude that discussion ended like five years ago.. welcome back from your time machine. How was your trip?
Jasdevi087 07.05.16	well I just had dinner actually, but I haven't had my dick sucked in a while so maybe you could help me out with that?
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	lol
Jasdevi087 07.05.16	well i actually live in the pacific and New Zealander's supposedly do consume to much sodium in their diets so that explains away the salt
cagedbutterfly 07.05.16	Lol I seen his videos before. Funny as hell
