Optimistic into In Limbo is pretty important IMO. Much like Heartbreaker into Livin' Lovin' Maid.

By the way, can anyone recommend me some music based on my love for Kid A, Amnesiac and Hail to the Thief? Not looking so much for the Alt Rock side but more of the "artsy" or "sonic" or whatever. Not just noises. I need some new music in the Radiohead genre.

Idioteque is pretty cool but I have to say it's my least favorite Kid A song.

My favorite songs are Everything in it's Right Place, National Anthem, How to Disappear Completely, Optimistic and Morning Bell.

But I agree that overall it's an album that needs to be listened to all the way through.

But I rarely skip through a Radiohead CD, I usually skip through High & Dry on The Bends and through Where I End and You Begin and Drunken Punchout at a Wedding on HTTT, but that's it.

Ok Computer, Kid A, Amnesiac and In Rainbows have to be listened to all the way through.

Agree completely about the listening all the way through thing. But I do love Idioteque, a lot.

I'm surprised at Where I End and You Begin and Punchup at a Wedding being skippable songs. I'm guilty of skipping a couple songs myself off The Bends and Pablo Honey, but nothing off the later material. I find both those songs set the mood for that portion of the record. I couldn't do without that little bundle of songs from There There through to Myxomatosis.

Those are some of my favorite tracks on the whole album(s).

Then you've completely missed the point of Radiohead.

I think High and Dry is a great song, but favorite Radiohead song? Nah. Then again, you hate Paranoid Android.
