The lyrics on OK Computer are actually important. All give off fumes of paranoia, social discomfort, and even insanity. I’ve always thought of OK Computer as the modern Darkside of the Moon which dealed with the same issues to an extent, and listen to Lucky and tell me that doesn’t sound like Floyd.
Well Ok Computer and The Bends are different, for that was the period when Yorke still annunciated.

While Thom isn't the bees knees when it comes to lyrics, I think he's written quite a few good songs from a lyrical standpoint. HTTT was probably their lyrical high point.

Hit and miss with me, though it's mostly hit. Like Spinning Plates is fantastic.

I can't get into Let Down whatsoever.

YEah, I guess, but it's that damned music which the case has been closed on.

I hearrrrrd that. That's what I've been trying to catch when I listen to them. But yeah, the lyrics are tight in my opinion and have coolzville themes that I do enjoy.

How does a member of Sonic Youth get pissed over that?

Sounded like a "boo hoo" article to me. Sorry those broke bastards can't go on myspace and give away their albums like certain folk (AKA, everyone in America).

Let Down is by far the best song on OKC.
