Flashmobba 03.08.22	aw thanks you guys, would love to see yalls top 10s might extend this to top 20
fogza 03.08.22	very controversial no Anyone can play guitar
zakalwe 03.08.22	1. Bones 2. How to Disappear Completely 3. Nude 4. The Bends 5. Paranoid Android 6. Present Tense 7. Lucky 8. Lotus Flower 9. Reckoner 10. Codex
Cimnele 03.08.22	hmm nice! feel like if I did a top 15 i wouldn't put jigsaw on it at all, interesting to see so many people say it's the best
JohnnyoftheWell 03.08.22	"1. Bones" my sides
zakalwe 03.08.22	It means a lot that tune. It’s a classic. Bends was the absolute bollocks back in the day. I still listen to it a lot.
fogza 03.08.22	I like the Bends as an album but Bones... i dunno zak seems a stretch
Pheromone 03.08.22	1 is top 3 but this list is mental haha
zakalwe 03.08.22	Bones lyrics mean a lot. Hardest hitting by the band.
Pheromone 03.08.22	let down lyrics but jigsaw is sexy
botb 03.08.22	Everybody sleeps on Ill Wind bc it’s a b side but it’s at the very least top 5 for me
zakalwe 03.08.22	Spectre is top 20. Fucking amazing song, gutting it wasn’t the Bond theme but I suppose it adds to the thing.
Pheromone 03.08.22	zak did u ever belt creep at the toothbrush
fogza 03.08.22	sometimes i belt there there into a hair iron
zakalwe 03.08.22	Absolutely Phero mate.
YoYoMancuso 03.08.22	Let Down all day every day, Kid A and Pyramid Song tied for 2nd
fogza 03.08.22	Let Down is definitely my no 1
JeremiahBullfrog 03.08.22	Myxomatosis, all day everyday
JKing92 03.08.22	Agree with YoYo and Fogza, "Let Down" is definitely their best, "Climbing up the Walls" and "Street Spirit (Fade Out)" are also up there.
ArsMoriendi 03.08.22	Let Down is so painfully overrated Radiohead's way too good for a twinkly feely jangle song to be their best
robertsona 03.08.22	"let down" is my #1 as well, but I never noticed it that much when I was super into the band
fogza 03.08.22	"Radiohead's way too good for a twinkly feely jangle song" So reductive
ArsMoriendi 03.08.22	Sorry a guitary #emotionaljourney of alternative rock or whatever Let Down is bottom 3 on OK Computer and often a chore to get through, there I said it
AmericanFlagAsh 03.08.22	Where I End and You Begin is one of my fav Radiohead songs "Let Down is so painfully overrated" lol no
AmericanFlagAsh 03.08.22	You can say it all you want Ars, but you're very wrong
ArsMoriendi 03.08.22	Where I End and You Begin flat out sucks because it builds and builds and builds and BUILDS then ends with 0 payoff, kinda like a proto Burn the Witch, but with better drums Flashmobba's list rules because contains all songs I like
fogza 03.08.22	"Let Down is bottom 3 on OK Computer and often a chore to get through, there I said it" man I'm glad I'm not experiencing okc in whatever terrible dead inside way you are lol
YoYoMancuso 03.08.22	“Let Down is painfully overrated” Yeah well I disagree. BOOM. Now what
ArsMoriendi 03.08.22	Idk I love plenty of their emotional slow songs, like How to Disappear Completely is amazing In fact, it’s odd to me how HtDC is far less popular than Let Down
Sinternet 03.08.22	weird fishes, seperator and go slowly are my top 3
ArsMoriendi 03.08.22	Nice picks, especially Separator I’d say: I Might Be Wrong, All I Need, and Packt Like Sardines in a Crushd Tin Box
wojodta 03.08.22	Fake plastic trees should be on every top 10 radiohead song list.
fogza 03.08.22	Complains about "Where I End and You Begin" going nowhere, then reps "I might be wrong". I always got the impression most people really like HTDC tbh
Pheromone 03.08.22	> "Radiohead's way too good for a twinkly feely jangle song" cringe
fogza 03.08.22	yep it's not a good take on many levels lol
ReiniEden 03.08.22	All I Need is their magnum opus when it comes to singular songs imo.
nol 03.08.22	I’ve thought Let Down was overrated ever since my Aesthetics/Philosophy professor said it was his favorite song OAT. I’m pretty out of the loop when it comes to which Radiohead songs you’re “supposed” to like so I was like “really??”
nol 03.08.22	fuck I’m like totally on ars side here
deathofasalesman 03.08.22	lol at thinking radiohead are "above" their own music
nol 03.08.22	he’s just saying that it’s not their best, not that they are above it lol. People cutting out half of ars quote
zakalwe 03.08.22	If HttT had some twinkly, feely, jangle songs it might make it a bit less shit.
ArsMoriendi 03.08.22	“Complains about "Where I End and You Begin" going nowhere, then reps "I might be wrong" “I Might Be Wrong” isn’t meant to be an intense explosive song, why is that relevant to my criticism of Where I Begin which is the first 2/3s of an intensive explosive song that is missing it’s ending (I won’t lie I actually dislike this one a lot) As for Let Down… I’m tired of arguing about that one, but I’ve heard it 50+ times and it’s really nothing special. I don’t hate it, but I don’t see why it’s a stand out. The lyrics aren’t even that special? Also deathofasalesman’s interpretation of my comment is not even close to what I was saying. C’mon guys, I know you love Let Down, but don’t strawman me
AmericanFlagAsh 03.08.22	Ars taking a big L here
deathofasalesman 03.08.22	you let us down, hanging around
JKing92 03.08.22	He's crushed like a bug in the ground
JohnnyoftheWell 03.08.22	"jangle song" ars plz stop using words u don't understand
ArsMoriendi 03.08.22	Non-distorted guitar that’s very appregiated = jangly Don’t gaslight me Johnny
nol 03.08.22	it jangles
JohnnyoftheWell 03.08.22	jangle pop 0% resign
ArsMoriendi 03.08.22	Never said it was jangle pop at any point, just said it jangles
JohnnyoftheWell 03.08.22	justice for jangle
Flashmobba 03.09.22	wow I leave this list for a day n yall wreak havoc
Meridiu5 03.09.22	1 is dead right. although I'd put "lucky" on here somewhere.
nol 03.09.22	Imma be hella original and make a top 25 tomorrow
fogza 03.09.22	I also don't think it's very jangly, maybe built on arpeggiatted chords but there's so much going on in there besides just that. Song is so dense, and that weird competing guitar line, like it manages to be built on that base but somehow not sound bright. "Where I end" has a climax, it's just not some big explosive climax, but it does resolve.
nol 03.09.22	the guitar jangles
JohnnyoftheWell 03.09.22	you don't deserve jangle
fogza 03.09.22	Well if it jangles, it does so in a bold, forward thinking jangle
JohnnyoftheWell 03.09.22	hello my name is nol and i like jangle best when its bold and forward thinking this is my story:
fogza 03.09.22	Exactly or maybe not at all
JohnnyoftheWell 03.09.22	the end. great work
fogza 03.09.22	"The lyrics aren’t even that special?" I really like the commuting/transport standing in for disillusionment / passage of time thing, with the updated Kafka meets 90's paranoia shit at the end. That whole queueing / transport thing resonates hard with me. All matches the music mood perfectly as well.
JohnnyoftheWell 03.09.22	no novelty-fantasy [fake] high bullshit 0/10
Storm In A Teacup 03.09.22	hello my name is Johnny and I’m a ninny
JohnnyoftheWell 03.09.22	hi i am storm in a teacup and i am here to fuck sry colton get out of the way plz
Storm In A Teacup 03.09.22	I mean half the singers in bands can’t sing lol
Storm In A Teacup 03.09.22	Lmao straight up deleted Corkons bitch ass 🤣
JohnnyoftheWell 03.09.22	there is a time and place for colton and this very important summit ain't it
Storm In A Teacup 03.09.22	Is summit slang for sexual tents
JohnnyoftheWell 03.09.22	yes but this is a radiohead thread
Storm In A Teacup 03.09.22	I am here to fuck
JohnnyoftheWell 03.09.22	show me the storm wagon
fogza 03.09.22	frisky
nol 03.09.22	“I really like the commuting/transport standing in for disillusionment / passage of time thing, with the updated Kafka meets 90's paranoia shit at the end. That whole queueing / transport thing resonates hard with me. All matches the music mood perfectly as well.“ so you like songs about trains
fogza 03.09.22	Yep, Let down is my all time no 2, no 1 is: https://youtu.be/yQLoGiVhE30
Colton 03.09.22	do you ever throw on some Radiohead and it hits you that Thom Yorke can’t sing
Pheromone 03.09.22	Thomas and Friends are way too good for a twinkly feely jangle song
Flashmobba 07.26.23	wow I never knew this got commented on this much lmao still okay w this list tho
