Blackstar
>>
>>71813158
I think Fog is most underrated desu
>>
>>71813158
its sister song "Dollars & Cents" is better
>>
>>71813158
The Amazing Sounds of Orgy is their most beautiful and underrated track ever period
>>
>>71814313
Ehh I'd choose Motion Picture over Orgy but that's me
>>
Lift 2002

That's not Worrywort
>>
Does anyone love daily mail/staircase as much as I do? Is it underrated?
>>
>>71814638
Daily mail is fantastic.
Staircase is good too
>>
>>71813158
Talk Show Host
>>
>>71813158
Sulk
>>
>>71814638
Yeah. Staircase should have been on TKOL.
>>
Tinker Tailor is pretty underrated. The climax with strings in the end is one of the best moments in the album.

the Amnesiac B-Sides are absolute GOD tier.
>>
I really like Stop Whispering
>>
>>71816562
fug yeah, some of the Amnesiac b-sides should've been on the album. Would've made it 10/10
>>

All the good songs on Hail To The Thief are underrated.
>>
>>71813158
Hid A what?
>>
>>71817023
Lurgee is the best off PH.
>>
>>71813158
interesting way to spell "Kid A"

>>71817629
pretty sure you mean Blow Out
>>
>>71813158
>anything but climbing up the walls

kek.
>>
>>71814638
Both should have been on tkol
>>
>>71814638
best songs from that era
>>
>>71813158
People don't like it as much on Kid A because it sounds too much like something off O.K Computer. As a single its one of their best songs, that jazzy outro is godlike.
>>
>>71818534
everyone already knows "climbing up the walls" is great

thom's scream near the end is one of, if not the, greatest single moments in a radiohead song
>>
It's Palo Alto, and it's not even close.
>>
>>71813239
correct
>>
Little By Little is really good and I'm pissed when it shows up at the bottom of most TKOL rankings.

But also The Butcher and Staircase are really good.
>>
Is Let Down underrated?

Because I wanna say Let Down.

(your not a real radiohead fan unless your favorite track on OK Computer is Let Down)
>>
>>71821507
Little By Little is great. Feral is pretty underrated too. People say it's the worst on that album but idk I enjoy it a lot

>>71821763
Let Down is like the 2nd most loved song on that album
>>
>>71821763
It's overrated as fuck. It's a good song and the lyrics are cool, but I've seen most people praising it like it's a second coming of Christ, and I think that CUTW is better.

Same with There, There. I think I just don't like that they basically follow the rock song structure.
>>
>>71818461
blow out defense squad checking in
>>
>>71813158
I was just listening to Kid A last night and I have to say I agree. Either Optimistic or In Limbo.
Optimistic has the subtle rock influence and that awesome distorted guitar tone, while In Limbo is comfy as hell while still being slightly off-kilter and weird because of the strange rhythm and the dissonant guitar parts.
>>
>>71821813
Everyone rags on Feral because it's at its core an interlude, and when the album is 8 songs, not going for the easy target as the worst song is difficult.

Fitter Happier, Treefingers, Hunting Bears, I Will, Faust Arp, Glass Eyes, every one of those always gets the pass, because the albums are long and the short tone-setting interlude helps them.
>>
>>71813158
one of my favorite songs to play solo acoustic when i am doing a bar gig and hate the audience.

but truly one of my all time favorite radiohead songs...
>>
>>71821813
no it's not

from most loved to least loved

Karma Police
Paranoid Android
No Surprises
Exit Music
Let Down
Airbag
Lucky
Climbing Up The Walls
Subterranean Homesick Alien
The Tourist
Fitter Happier
Electioneering

this has nothing to do with my personal taste. my favorite on the album is probably the tourist
>>
>>71813158
optimistic is great, but i feel i never hear anyone talk about body snatchers, love that song
>>
>>71813158

In Limbo is far better
>>
>>71813158

The Tourist is one of their best that is not talked about
>>
I want none of this. Clear as day most underrated.
