Poll question: Favorite Radiohead Song?
Although seemingly impossible, I thought I'd take on the task of putting together a list of what I believe to be Radiohead's 9 best songs. Yes, I'm a pretentious bastard.

Perhaps against my better judgment, I've decided that, since some albums are "more equal" than others, not all albums will be represented. I feel that valuable slots would be wasted in trying to fit a song from each of their six albums onto the list. We're just going for the cream of the crop, here, although I will admit that I'm slanted toward the most recent album, in all its freshness and political relevance.

I'm also well aware of how vastly incomplete this list is, so PLEASE add to it. :)

This is what you get when you mess with us.

OK, here we go:

1. By the way, Let Down is my vote.
The end of that song is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard.

8. Yup
Great song.

I didn't manage to fit any of the Bends in, unfortunately. But, that's definitely a great one.
