Top 5 Radiohead tracks
I haven't seen a Radiohead thread (Radiothread) in a while so I thought I'd keep the ball rolling.
I've been trying to come up with a list for ages and I've just cracked it (kinda);
1. 2+2=5
2. Exit Music (For a Film)
3. Paranoid Android
4. You and Whose Army
=5. How to Disappear Completely
=5. Life in a Glass House
See if you can do better than me and actually whittle it down to only five tracks. Good luck!

A tip for anybody who wants to try to figure this puzzle out. Have a look at http://www.greenplastic.com/lyrics/ for the entire back catalogue and potential pool at your fingertips.
Having gratefully accepted my own advice, I would go for (in no particular order - that's TOO tough);
Kid A
No Surprises
The Tourist
Subterranean Homeick Alien
Myxomatosis
Sorry to ramble on, but what strikes me about trying to choose is the lack of songs that actually stand amazingly out from the rest. I genuinely really do like most of them...
I genuinely couldn't do this
Nothing has consistently affected me like Fake Plastic Trees though. Heartbreaking.
glad to see reckoner making many lists
1. pyramid song
2. reckoner
3. karma police
4. you and whose army
5. like spinning plates
this list changes by the minute
1. subterranean homesick alien
2. everything in its right place
3. exit music
4. 2+2 = 5
5. life in a glasshouse
God choosing these is actually painful
but i'm gonna go for
1) There There
2) Reckoner
3) Paranoid Android
4) Life In a Glasshouse
5) Idioteque
By the time this has posted i'll have thought of a whole different top 5. Argh.
Having difficulty...
But...
1.Motion Picture Soundtrack (Though no-one seems to love this one as much)
2.Pyramid Song
3.Lucky
4.Exit Music (For A Film)
5.I Might Be Wrong
At the minute anyway
Don;t wanna sound like a complete nerd
but the earlier, unplugged version of MPS is better, with an extra verse.
Dont wanna sound like a complete nerd
but thank you for drawing my attention to this!
Cant help but miss those wierd disney-esque vocal bits though
The extra verse
makes up for it. And the opening line is different slightly. It was written around the time of The Bends (maybe earlier)so changed a lot before Kid A.
its not set in stone but:
1. let down
2. subterranean homesick alien
3. i might be wrong
4. high and dry (can't understand why everyone disses this, it's a brilliant song!)
5. how to disappear completely
kid a very narrowly missed out.
i diss most of The Bends, because it's not that good.
Hope this helps
