safe choice. but then the whole album is safe. with the
exception of the hideous the gloaming.

I doubt they'll ever release a proper electronic track as an
A-side. Smart move really, especially since the majority of
Radiohead single buyers prefer pre-Kid /Amnesiac Radiohead.
I think. Just guessing. Sounds reasonable though right?

i think you're both right. theyre gonna choose a radio
friendly track to promote the album as much as possible, and
i think theyre also trying to appeal to fans they may have
lost from the previous 2 albums

the most accessible songs on the album are always the first
ones optioned as singles.. come on kids u should knwo that

the b-side will be 'scatterbrain' remixed by four tet

you don't like The Gloaming, Netlon?
i love it... =)
do you like Backdrifts?

only song i still don't like is I Will (i like even Sail To
The Moon now), though it's not as uglily artificial as
Motion Picture Soundtrack...

Go To Sleep is a great track, definitely!
Where I End And You Begin or Scatterbrain would have been
more likely single-making tracks imho, but Go To Sleep is a
good choice too.

hey that's opinions for ya :) i like backdrifts ok, but
nothing special. i love the two last songs, but they're so
old skool radiohead. the tone of the album (ooh the world is
so bad and depressing) kinda bores me, that's my main issue
with the album. otherwise it's a solid release

how can you not like 'i will'??!
easily the best song on that album imo
sounds like an updated 'exit music'

anyone heard the fourtet remix yet? am really looking
forward to that one!

for it?

spamsixtynine > dunno, it is just a question of taste!
i guess people find it beautiful... i just don't, to me it
is like a sticky, bittersweet and nauseating black stain on
an otherwise very good album (and i don't like children
either - children, family... always brings ugliness to me...
also one of the reasons why i have mixed feelings about BoC
maybe with all this childy stuff - i hate down-to-earthyness
and willing for security having a family etc. etc., as in No
Surprises, and when he mentions kids in HTTT... and Karma
Police, i hate the lyrics to Karma Police, even though i
like the music of it. reminds me of political stuff about
insecurity etc... police everywhere, controlling everything,
1984, abuses etc. and everyone accepting it)

i didn't like 'exit music (for a film)' a lot either (i
think Kid A and Hail To The Thief are better than OK
Computer in general)...

an exception.

yes that song is kinda bad..

very pearl-jamish and incomplete.

like at the end they didn't know what to do with the song..
jonny tried a solo but ended up playing half-a-riff... and
the way the song fades-out at the end is just plain wrong.
