Just listened to their B-sides a few days ago. On first listen, How I Made My Millions is a gem.

Though I looove Exit Music, and I used to agree with this, I now would say that Let Down has a more emotional climax than Exit Music. I think Let Down is by far one of the most underrated Radiohead songs. I would say it's the best off OK Computer and I'd put it in my top 5 Radiohead tracks.

I don't understand why not only Hail to the Thief, but Amnesiac in particular have been so under-appreciated. I think they tie for favorite Radiohead albums.

And as far as Exit Music goes, I put The Tourist right on par with it.

All of the OK Computer b sides are grade A, Palo Alto, Lull, How I Made My Millions, and Polyethylene (Parts 1 & 2) are my favorites. The Bends had a couple of great b sides Talk Show Host, Bishop's Robes, and The Trickster.

On Exit Music...

I'll hear nothing bad about it... its one of the most amazing songs the band has ever made, period. I saw it performed live at the Sydney Entertainment Centre and it blew the freaking roof of the place, and easily made it as one of the many highlights of that night...

I agree, Everything In Its Right Place is one very fine track, but indeede, lets let the discussion continue, there is certainly is more than 'nuff to be said...

Worst track on Kid A is Kid A. Obviously it's better live like sweet said, but that's because all the good stuff about it is made more prominent and the vocals aren't muffled.
