    Paranoid Android, as I'm sure you know, my love for Radiohead goes deeper than I can express! This is truly is the perfect song; it has everything you could ever want. Unbelievable guitar, different, altenating parts and moods, all in the one song. It is also so complex and layered, the moaning and chanting and humming in the slower section is unbelievable and incredibly well written and performed. The fast section is the easily the most intense, exhilirating and powerfully moving bits of music ever written, it makes me want to scream with anger and pride! The opening section and the bridge between this and the fast section and haliriously cruel and bitter. I find myself laughing outloud as I hear them. It's also such a quotable song, I sing every line and pretend I am slashing the guitar when I hear it. You can buy t-shirts with all the lyrics on them for crying out loud! Such an amzing song, reportadly about cocaine addicts and the mood swings experienced by junkies. But the last line stays with me, more than any other: "God loves his children... that's why he kills them, yeah!"

    Holy bejeezus what a difficult question. I'm sorry but it's freakin impossible to narrow it down to one so here are my favorites: 2+2=5 (I love when the song picks up. I've air guitared the hell out of this song. Plus I love the lyrics), Kid A (it's just so different and weird which makes it beautiful), House of Cards (I just want to get lost on the road and keep driving when this song is on), Rabbit in Your Headlights (just so dam.n beautiful. Plain and simple), and Talk Show Host (I love when Thom says "you want me?" this song is just amazing to listen to anytime of the day).

    "There, There" because of the melodic drum beats, and lyrics. The video is very good also.

    It's such a tune isn't it? I was a teenager when it was released so it REALLY spoke to my tortured angst at the time. But even now everytime I play it it kind of stills me ya know?

    I took The bends and OK computer (and not much else..) with me on a 4 month overland trip of Africa in 1998. I know every note there by heart, trust me on that. But they have issued so unbelievably good stuff since then that I have not gone back to OK for some 2-3 years now. This all changes with time but "Weird fishes", "Give up the ghost" and "Where I end and you begin" are the most played on my phone for the last 2 years, especially the basement versions. Sometimes I think just having Radiohead would be enough. Keep up the listing, it helps you find new RH fav songs all the time :)
