OK Computer is one of the finest albums ever.

Kid A. It's a classic, but it's got nothing on OK Computer.

 

[namkcuR]

I'm surprised Kid A didn't make more of a showing here...that LP usually gets lots of love in B&C.

Kid A has what I call the 'vinyl' feel...as soon as those first notes of EIIRP play, you feel like you've just put the needle down a vinyl record, and these ten tracks are about to play in a very deliberate order with a very deliberate beginning, middle, and end, that will culminate in a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. Song for song, it's hard to argue against OKC, with Airbag, Paranoid Android, Exit Music(For A Film), Let Down, Karma Police, Climbing Up The Walls, No Surprises, Lucky, and The Tourist.

Everything In Its Right Place > Airbag
Kid A < Paranoid Android
The National Anthem < Subterranian Homesick Alien
How To Disappear Completely = Exit Music(For A Film) - I can't possibly choose between these two
Treefingers < Let Down
Optimistic < Karma Police - WOW that was close
In Limbo < Electioneering
Idioteque = Climbing Up The Walls WOW that was close
Morning Bell < No Surprises
Motion Picture Soundtrack < Lucky

Well, all that accomplished was showing how close this is for me.

This is as close as it gets. RH will never top these two records.

 

[lazarus]

List.

(Instead of "Lift". Get it? )

Or instead of "Just" (Keep it to yourself).

wow, I'm actually surprised how much of a beating Kid A took, I knew a lot of people liked OKC but still...
