I only listen to a playlist version without SHA and Electioneering. They just bore me.

From wiki-n 2005, music journalist Chuck Klosterman wrote that Kid A was in fact an "unintentional but spooky foreshadowing of the events of the September 11, 2001 attacks" and the world's situation beyond that.[58]

Chuck Klosterman needs a good ****in' slap!

I used to have the list without Fitter Happier, but then I felt horrible and added it back. I can't stand not having the entire album. I feel there's something I'm always going to miss.

Yeah, Electioneering isn't really one of my favorites. I thought the name was clever. Song, eh, not so much. But when it comes to Radiohead, when I don't like a song, it's usually because I haven't looked into it enough.

electioneering was a high energy song that was needed to balance out OK computer in my opinion, its not my favorite but its awesome anyway

well its radiohead, I haven't found a song yet that i completely haven't liked

OK Computer is the first Radiohead Album I bought, and the only album out where in I know by heart all the lyrics of the song. Amazing considering that during those years, my teenage years that is, I was into cheezy love songs to impress girls. You can hardly impress them at those age with radiohead stuff, but that album was my definitive music.

I don't have a day since then that I don't listen to this song:

I didn't like that song for the longest time. He just mumbled the whole song to me. I couldn't even understand the chorus. I really liked the music to it. It was very simple, almost music box like. But ever since I looked up the lyrics I realize what a great song it is. How deep it goes. Now it's one of my favorites.
