Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors is not a good song Zoots...

The first 6 songs of OKC are so incredible, I'm amazed every single time I listen to them.

This is why I hope to see U2 in Canada someday. They don't like things to sound better here.

Does this mean that Let Down has it in the bag, or that people are just divisive on the other two?

Airbag > Let Down

this makes mathematical sense to me
I like "Let Down" more than "Airbag." It's in my top three of their songs. But I feel like "Airbag" is more a summation of their career than its opponent. Stunning from a technical standpoint, alternately haunting and beautiful. That epic, epic start to their best record. The fucking coda. I love "Let Down" on an intensely personal level, but objectively, it's hard to not admit "Airbag" is the better song.

That so perfectly distills my thoughts on the subject.

I have said several times now that Airbag is the quintessential R-Head song, it has a good mix of both poignant and bizarre lyrics, a wicked guitar solo, funky beat and bass line and awesome outro... Plus it has sleigh bells for Christ’s sake! Sleigh Bells!

It truly is one of the forgettable tracks from Amnesiac, and I've really warmed up to that album over time.

It sounds cool to me. It's not a great song by any stretch of the imagination, but in context of the album I never skip it.

we need one more vote for FPT to make me feel more comfortable right now...

The problem with "Let Down" winning it all out for me is that I rarely listen to it separated from "Exit Music;" "Airbag" on the other hand, is a tour-de-force from start-to-finish on its own. "Let Down" is still an outright amazing song, and if I could vote it in tandem with "Exit Music," I would, but I'll have to go with "Airbag" for the winner.
I'm totally happy with either one winning though, even if "Gagging Order" is my #1.

Wow. Double-elim to give Let Down the win?
That would be rather anti-climactic.
