In Limbo... not a big fan.

My 3 faves to win are The National Anthem, Everything in Its Right Place, and Idioteque, you guys?

I can't believe how incredibly fucking dense you people are.

Anyways...

Voted for Treefingers.

 

[LemonMelon]

In Limbo... not a big fan.

No, no, no. Treefingers and Motion Picture Soundtrack MUST go first.

 

[Dalton]

I don't mind MPS, but Treefingers is essentially useless.

 

[SeattleVertigo]

Yeah, I'm bummed that Karma Police didn't make it. And Exit Music. But at least Let Down made it.

This round, I voted Treefingers, though Motion Picture Soundtrack also was a candidate.

This album just doesn't excite me that much. But as far as favorites, I guess How To Disappear Completely and Optimistic are up there with the others that LMP mentioned. I'll need to give the album a few more listens to decide a pecking order. (Um, except that National Anthem will be low on my list.)

 

[phanan]

Treefingers

 

[angelordevil]

Can't believe Exit Music is gone.

This is tough. I think Kid A is pure perfection, and one of the best albums ever created. It should be "Vote for your least favourite mood," because that's what Kid A is: a stream of consciousness feeling.

Treefingers is a great interlude on the album, but on its own, it doesn't make as much sense.

 

[martha]

Motion Picture Soundtrack

 

[HolyMeximofoJoe]

Motion Picture Soundtrack is my favorite song on this album... Looks like it might not make it far however

Each song here is an experience... going to be veeerry tough for me to vote

 

[Dalton]

For my money this has to be a pretty easy win for:

Everything In Its Right Place
Idioteque
The National Anthem

 

[Aygo]

I voted for "Treefingers".

Someone said that the 3 finalists will be "Everything In Its Right Place", "Idioteque" and "The National Anthem". I'm not sure about this, I think that many people will prefer "How To Disappear Complety" like they did with "Exit Music" in Ok Computer.

Disagree too that "Motion Picture Soundtrack" should go away right next too. It's a beautiful and very different track. "In Limbo" and "Optimistic" should go first.

It's gonna be very hard for me to let go some of the tracks. Kid A is easily one of my favourite albums ever, 10/10.

 

[djerdap]

Treefingers, goodbye. Motion Picture Soundtrack is a beautiful song.

 

[Dalton]

For my money this has to be a pretty easy win for:

Everything In Its Right Place
Idioteque
The National Anthem

Sorry "The National Anthem" was supposed to be "How To Disappear Completely". This day has been shit. I can't even cut and paste accurately.

 

[xaviMF22]

How to disappear completely
Idioteque
and Kid A FTW

Yes. I voted for Treefingers.

no, no....I'm right

How to disappear complete completely

 

[Zoots]

Yeah Treefingers I guess... but I still love it!

How can a man wearing that short of shorts ever be right? Exactly.

 

[joyfulgirl]

 

[intedomine]

Treefingers, not a bad track but not really meaningful or memorable in anyway.

I'm hoping for an Idioteque, How To Disappear, Motion Picture final...

put some clothes on you dirty bastard!

 

[Dalton]

I am assuming that whoever voted for Idioteque thought the rules were to vote for your favorite track?

[lazarus]

Hey, what do you know, another poll where we include a snippet/instrumental/segue track in the balloting even though there's no way it's going to continue past the first round!

WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP DOING THIS?

I can't wait to see Hunting Bears on the Amnesiac poll.

I will slap that beard right off your face, chuck norris.

its glued to my face

why don't you go back and listen to sky blye sky and fall asleep to it?

 

[Dalton]

Face it, In Rainbows is simply Radiohead trying to recapture the brilliance that is Summerteeth.
