holy shit I just realised I FORGOT PARANOID ANDROID. I also forgot what i voted for and put them in a random order…

What’s their criteria for “Radiohead song?” Why is This Mess We’re In on there? And Rabbit In Your Headlights? And for that matter Give It Up, The Chains, etc. I don’t even think Follow Me Around deserves a spot on a list like this, but it’s more understandable.

This is impossible…
Anna
October 23rd, 2007
they’re radiohead related…just think of it as an opportunity to give some attention to those songs

I agree with Ryan. “This Mess We’re In” and “Rabbit In Your Headlights” aren’t Radiohead songs. As much as I love Thom as a solo artist, Ed, Phil and the Greenwood lads are a huuuuge part of the Radiohead sound. I think it’s slighting their role in the band to include those tunes (as much as I love both UNKLE and PJ Harvey).

I voted but, as I am not yet ready to fully enjoy the album, I have not yet heard it, all my selections were for past albums and, even then, it’s a tough — ultimately misleading — choice:
1. True Love Waits
2. How to Disappear Completely
3. Like Spinning Plates
4. Motion Picture Soundtrack
5. Let Down
6. Idioteque
7. Airbag
8. Sit Down Stand Up
9. Wolf at the Door
10. Videotape (because, based on the bootleg, it’s been my favorite for over a year, but I don’t know how it turned out on the album)
PS I’m a bit confused as to whether I submitted 5-7 in that order, though.

Hey, begemoth! Thanks again for uploading that Radiohead doc!

It’s really hard to rank Radiohead songs.
Paranoid Android is my favorite song of all time, but after that… uh. Let Down? Idioteque? There are so many good ones. Let Down is my favorite Radiohead song that none of my friends care about, though. ![]()

Picking an *order* was too hard, so I did kinda general-picking… I don’t remember what order I did vote for them in, but for my top ten I said:
A Wolf at the Door (my #1)
There There
Where I End and You Begin
Paranoid Android
Let Down
I Might Be Wrong
Kid A
Pyramid Song
Weird Fishes/Arpeggi
Bulletproof (I Wish I Was…)

Its so cool there are people like you in the world. I can sit back and read about people argue over Radiohead songs. They have made maybe two hundred songs and counting. I’ll take every one of them and sit back with a smile. you are great fans.

This is just utterly impossible. Not just to pick the top ten, but to pick a favorite…. What about the ‘98 version of Nude… if that was a choice, that’d be number one. Sadly, it’s not =(

sorry
pedro
October 23rd, 2007
It´s really difficult to choose.. Every their song is great and I love each of their songs. But for this moment are for me the most amazing these songs:
All I Need
Climbing Up The Walls
Pyramid Song
I Might Be Wrong
House Of Cards
Everything In Its Right Place
Exit Music
National Anthem
You
There There
and many many many other Radiohead´s songs that are as beautiful as these are…

How come none of you voted for Jigsaw falling into place?! I think it’s one of their greatest songs. It deserves the top 20. But number one, I can’t decide, it’s too hard. Imposible.

October 23rd, 2007
1. Nude
2. Paranoid Android
3. How To Disappear Completely
4. Pyramid Song
5. Let Down
6. True Love Waits

Damn, this is hard … like choosing between your children or something. After some consternation, I’ve come up with a Top Ten song list. But on another day I might choose differently:
1. Karma Police
2. Reckoner
3. The Bends
4. Subterranean Homesick Alien
5. Knives Out
6. Pyramid Song
7. Nude
8. Paranoid Android
9. There There
10. Creep
More than just a Tope Ten collection, I tried to pick ten songs here that reflect the best of Radiohead, to my ears, from their start to the present.
I think this is largely a ridiculous endeavor but fun nonetheless.

Who’s this Warner Chappel Character and how do we get all the songs that were written by Radiohead but I’ve never heard before. That would be nice to get a boxset of ALL their music… I’d pay a couple hundred for that Boxset.
