Lucky.

Looking ahead, I don't know how to pick 2 songs out of In Rainbows. They're at least 5 legit contenders (15 Step, All I Need, Jigsaw..., Weird Fishes, Bodysnatchers) and is more deserving for a 3-spot final than Kid A.

I know it won't change anything, but that's just my 2 cents.

 

[LemonMelon]

Sticking with The Tourist.

 

[lazarus]

Lucky.

Burn in hell.

 

[cdisantis83]

Lucky is bloody incredible, but, then again, so is everything that is left. I suppose that The Tourist gets my vote this round.

 

[LMP]

Burn in hell.

I'll probably be stuck listening to Lucky.

It's the only song on the album I don't like listening to that much. Other than Fitter Happier, which isn't a song anyway.

 

[DaveC]

Let Down, again.

Please don't make me go through this on OK Computer, too.

 

[Aygo]

"No Surprises", 3rd time.

We are standing on the edge...

and I'm going to push you over.

Is it me or do these results imply that this album is (like many others) top-heavy? If all the side 2 songs get voted off first, what does that say about the consistency of the album?

I think it's a solid album from start-to-finish, but the "better songs" are all in the first half.

 

[FitzChivalry]

Karma Police

 

[martha]

Karma Police

I wanted to vote for this, but I voted for the Tourist.

 

[Zoots]

What do you have against Karma Police? It's wonderful.

 

[LMP]

Definitely.

 

[xaviMF22]

What do you have against Karma Police? It's wonderful.

I don't consider it top 3 material like Zootles

 

[xaviMF22]

and he said Karma Police >> Exit Music

which is

 

[LemonMelon]

That segue into Fitter Happier.

 

[xaviMF22]

That segue into Fitter Happier.

Exit Music into Let Down is a much better segue

 

[DaveC]

Exit Music into Let Down is a much better segue

Exit Music is such a gigantic build-up, then explosion, then a huge release...then the first notes of Let Down kick in and it snaps your head back to Earth. One of the best two-song combos around.

That said, I still say Let Down is the weakest track left.
