heheh this is a tough choice......

paranoid android, karma police, fitter happier, and
electioneering come to mind right away.......but i'd have to
say LUCKY! it's just one of those songs that seems so
perfect that i can't imagine changing one note! it's perfect
beginning to end =0)

it REALLY is one of the best albums of ALL time!

"Paranoid Android" was my first exposure to Radiohead. My
second exposure was the song (and video) "Karma Police".

Hook me up!

Been collecting their works ever since...

Karma Police has the best ending of ANY song ever I think...
where he starts singing "Phew for a minute there, I lost
myself" it's perfect... absolutely amazing!!!

My favorite track is probably Let Down though... love it!!

I love the strings on Climbing the wall. Karma Police is my
favourite track though...the ending...the point where Thom's
voice fades out into white noise and static. Heaven.

I'm going for Exit Music (For A Film), that song touches me.

But this album is top class, so hard to pick just one song.

we have established nothing in regards to any particular
track being better than any other

moreso we have shown what a killer disc this is in total,
and to think I sold mine!

*looks for one to buy back*

album of a lifetime, but it's nice enough.

The whole album sounds claustrophobic... in a good way.

Didn't they record it in Jayne Seymour's manor house or
something?

... and Let Down is my favourite. Sounds a bit like The
Byrds.

"Lucky", I first heard it on the warchild album and couldn't
believe it didn't get more recognition. I was overjoyed when
I saw it on OK computer.

Exit Music, or Karma Police...
The bit where the bass and drums kick in in Exit Music is
one of those hair-on-the-back-of-your-neck-stand-up
moments...
Dig the Mellotron choir too...
