Fake Plastic Trees.

IAJP 09-29-2005 03:23 PM

I'm partial to Karma Police.

MindlessPickle 09-29-2005 03:49 PM

I actually voted for Knives Out. It's just brilliant, cool video too. I Know this is a little bit off topic but I havent seen people talking about Amnesiac. Is it an album worth buying? (I have purchased TB and OKC).

Dissectional88 09-29-2005 04:50 PM

I dont like to look at Radiohead as a singles band, because their albums are put together so good as a whole. But I voted There There, they only get better which is the best thing about them.

JPage54 09-29-2005 04:56 PM

I said Karma Police. That's my favorite Radiohead tune.

Strum 09-29-2005 04:57 PM

Their last album does have a lot of crap in it.

/is a radiohead fan

[QUOTE=SpectrumGuitarist]I choose "Paranoid Android".

wait...

Anyway, as much as I love songs like "Just" and "Karma Police", I find that both "Street Spirit (Fade Out)" and "Pyramid Song" are eerily perfect in construction, and I'm sad that neither of them got released in the states (to my knowledge). However, I think "Pyramid Song" is a little better. It has a similar effect on me as "How to Disappear Completely", which is Radiohead's greatest achievement, as well as one of the greatest artistic achievements of recent years... while it may not be quite as good as HTDC, it is still a remarkable song, so I vote "Pyramid Song".[/QUOTE]

I think you're very similar to me as far as your reasons for liking Radiohead. I ended up swaying the way of Street Spirit though. It was a close one, for sure.

EonBlueApcolyps 09-29-2005 05:47 PM

Def Karma Police, then Fake Plastic Trees

sportsfan4427 09-29-2005 06:48 PM

my favorite is CREEP

phobiaholic 09-29-2005 06:51 PM

Uhhh paranoid android kills all of those songs. So does Everything In It's Right Place.



:confused:

RIPJoeStrummer 09-29-2005 09:06 PM

Yeah, Paranoid Android.

But Just is my favourite of those.

Jonny Greenwood 09-29-2005 10:22 PM

[QUOTE=Clunge] I just love all the Radiohead singles :D[/QUOTE]
Me too :D !!!

I voted Street Spirt but if Paranoid Android was an option I would vote for that one. Oh, would Pop is Dead count as a single they made a video for that song.

sgrevs 09-30-2005 02:12 AM

i have the bends and i fkn love it to bits, and i didnt actually realise radiohead had released it as a singel ,but i love it so much, and then i voted for it, right now.

kurtnovogrohl 09-30-2005 03:28 AM

creep sounds clean... he sounds like Matthew Bellamy...

Clunge 09-30-2005 05:01 AM

[QUOTE=kurtnovogrohl]creep sounds clean... he sounds like Matthew Bellamy...[/QUOTE]
I've always thought that.

Also, does anyone bar me like HTTT most out of all the Radiohead albums?

I Was A Kaleidoscope 09-30-2005 06:39 AM

Only 2+2=5, Sit Down. Stand Up, Backdrifts, Myxomatosis, There There and The Gloaming stood out for me on HTTT.
The rest didn't. At all.

Pale-Folklore 09-30-2005 08:22 AM

Karma Police is my favourite radiohead song.

fingis 09-30-2005 09:14 PM

street spirit. no questions asked

Clunge 10-01-2005 03:01 AM

Go To Sleep? A Wolf At The Door?

I like every song on that album :p

rbv 10-01-2005 03:14 AM

Was there any singles off of Kid A?

Paranoid Android/Street Spirit/Nice Dream

Myxomatosis129 10-01-2005 06:42 PM

Radiohead never released any singles off Kid A

StaticSynth 10-02-2005 12:13 AM

Pyramid Song, though those are all great.

blue3 10-02-2005 02:25 AM

I voted Creep.

Spectrum 10-02-2005 08:47 AM

[QUOTE=Myxomatosis129]Radiohead never released any singles off Kid A[/QUOTE]
Truth.

Though they did perform "Idioteque" and "The National Anthem" on Saturday Night Live back in 2000, both of which were amazing (and slightly shortened) performances.

Eoghan 10-02-2005 09:01 AM

Fake plastic trees imo. Best song on the bends anyway.

JPage54 10-03-2005 06:34 PM

I think we need more Radiohead threads in here.

Aeaon 10-03-2005 07:00 PM

I can't really choose. All Radiohead songs bring me such good joy.

Natty666 10-04-2005 10:34 AM

it would have been paranoid android but from the list it had to be karma police.

Mr Observations 10-04-2005 11:30 AM

No Surprises is one of Radiohead's weakest songs, and i really dislike Just. From that list, I'd have to say Street Spirit. Only that and the Pyramid Song are standout tracks from there. Dam'n singles.

BasShorty 10-05-2005 04:13 AM

Street Spirit is just great.
