You should be right, but I was annoyed as well that only 1/3 people here said that.

Music Banter - 3 Songs off every album, because I said so

Ok Computer is amazing, obviously, but the only time I can actually listen to it is when I'm super blazed. That's when I connect with it most. Their other albums I can listen anytime though.

The only song i would list off of IR would be Videotape or 15 Step, but i'm leaning toward the former.

Had tickets for the Toronto show today. Was lined up when they announced the show was canceled. The stage collapsed leaving one dead and three injured. Words cannot describe how upset, disappointed and sad I am, though I'm sure it is nothing compared to what the victim's family and friends must feel, or Radiohead themselves.

I ended up catching The Flaming Lips later at their free NXNE show. They paid tribute to Radiohead and played "Knives Out".

Knives Out is one of my favs from Amnesiac!^ Underrated among the fanbase I think.

Jigsaw is pretty good but I'm amazed anyone doesn't like Weird fishes/arpeggi!!!

I love Weird Fishes.

A friend told me to compile a mixtape of radiohead songs that he can listen to so he can get into the band. 10 tracks

He's most a pop radio guy so I want to ease him in without scaring him away

Here's what I'm thinking (not in order)

1.Just
2.There there
3.Karma police
4.2+2 = 5
5.weird fishes
6.Letdown
7.optimistic
8.Jigsaw falling into place
9.Reckoner
10.Myxomatosis

This was hard for me. I wanted to put in tracks that I thought were easy to listen to when I first got into radiohead. I also left out all of kid A and amnesiac because I think he should listen to those albums as a whole.

Any thoughts? adds changes?My bias is also showing a little(weren't into their earlier stuff)

Needs more stuff from The Bends. Throw on Fake Plastic Trees, Street Spirit, and Planet Telex. Those should be easy to get into for a pop radio guy.
