I think a New Orleans-style brass section on a Radiohead album was pretty damned special, but whatever. The lyrics, chilling in the way they implicate the audience ("Well of course I'd like to sit and chew the fat/but someone's listening in") is brilliant, to say the least.
I was hoping we'd find out what yolland's fave Radiohead song is.
As always, count me among the Amnesiac supporters. Intedomine says there's "nothing special" about Life in a Glasshouse, yet some of us think it's one of the band's best.

Good to see some love for Motion Picture Soundtrack back there, I'm loving it. And no, haven't heard Amensiac, worth getting? I think I'll probably get Amnesiac and HTTT and then that's it.
Let Down, High and Dry or Fake Plastic Trees probably.I was hoping we'd find out what yolland's fave Radiohead song is.

And while it's being discussed I will say that I do appreciate Amnesiac and it has its classic moments, but it is the Radiohead album that I enjoy the least. And that includes Pablo Honey.
Let Down, High and Dry or Fake Plastic Trees probably.
I agree that Kid A is the more impressive "piece" as a whole, but to me the songwriting on Amnesiac is superior, and I mean that from a musical and lyrical standpoint, even if it's a bit scattershot. Pyramid Song shits all over How to Disappear, hoses it down like a new inmate, and shits on it again for good measure.

Life in a Glasshouse is the best song on Amnesiac easily
Better than Pyramid Song, I Might Be Wrong, You And Whose Army?, Packt like Sardines and Spinning Plates?
I think not good sir...
can we at least both agree that Pablo Honey blows?
I actually prefer that to the album version a lot; great performance
It's sort of funny that the tour is over, IR is a year old, and here we are reviewing each record all over again.
the beat goes round and round
