I feel my luck could change
Kill me Sarah, kill me again with love
It's gonna be a glorious day
Pull me out of the aircrash, pull me out of the lake
'Cause I'm your superhero, we are standing on the edge
The head of state has called for me by name
But I don't have time for him
It's gonna be a glorious day
I feel my luck could change
Pull me out of the aircrash, pull me out of the lake
'Cause I'm your superhero, we are standing on the edge
We are standing on the edge
Arguably up there among the best albums of all time.
Yes, arguably, and I would argue it is not.
It is that phase in life, when most promises seem to be made ubiquitously throughout nature.
I could never decide which song I loved more, Lucky or Let Down. OK Computer is a phenomenal album.
I believe we can just go with the WHOLE ALBUM is a "10". No need for added discernment stress! ;)
It's a cyclical rating system, so if want to vote one lower than 1, you rate it a 10.
love this response.
Anything lower than 1?

Ended up being one of the best shows I'd ever seen, and I've seen plenty. Extra odd because I usually need to be at least somewhat familiar with the bands catalog to enjoy a big venue show. But as mentioned, the only song I knew was Creep... and they didn't even play that!
Nothing wrong with not liking Radiohead, or pink floyd, or the beatles or the stones etc. Music like all art is a subjective matter. I muself give a 10 to any song in this album.
True but yours is kind of like an answer that a teacher would give. I would say that if someone doesn't like any of those bands he's probably listening to the wrong station.
LLRP!
Wonderful album. Set the bar pretty high. I don't know what they were thinking when they included "Fitter, happier", though...
..the dehumanization caused by technology.
Arguably up there among the best albums of all time.
No sure it's even arguable as at least ONE of the BEST...
Is it just me or do all there stuff sound really miserable? Music to kill yourself too?
Exactly.
Some artists make songs about self-destruction.
RH make songs to inspire self-destruction.
I agree. A perfect piece of musical art.

In my opinion, there are nothing but 10's on this record. From start to finish.

No arguments - it was!
Wow...thanks for that connection....gob smacked that I never heard it before...cheers!
Me too - it's one of the greatest albums of the 20th C in my view.

Umm because they are terrible? Uh-oh, now you're on the pretentious music fans' bad list. Tsk tsk.
So Lucky to skip ahead.
I would not argue with that :)

hmmm...here's another RH song I enjoy....I feel like there's a handful of RH tracks out there with me commenting "hmmm...here's another RH song I enjoy..." - and yet overall I'm not really a fan. Maybe I am?! It's the RP influence you see...that's it...it's all BILLG's fault!
Thanks BillG!
Long Live RP!
I'm bumping this one up one to 8.
But I make up for my failing with volume.
lucky there's PSD.
Radiohead is definitely an acquired taste, much like Joni Mitchell. Here's hoping you'll get it someday.

Hey, darken those lyrics, they're too cheery for me.
I tune their lyrics out but yeah, "chronically downbeat" hits the mark. RP plays Radiohead too much. Wish it played more Knopfler, even though he's been overplayed here in the past.

"Radiohead's third album got compared to Pink Floyd a lot when it came out, and its slow drama and conceptual sweep certainly put it in that category. OK Computer, though, is a complicated and difficult record: an album about the way machines dehumanize people that's almost entirely un-electronic; an album by a British "new wave of new wave" band that rejects speed and hooks in favor of languorous texture and morose details; a sad and humanist record whose central moment is Thom Yorke crooning "We hope that you choke." Sluggish, understated, and hard to get a grip on, OK Computer takes a few listens to appreciate, but its entirety means more than any one song."
On DOWN the RO-OO-OAD
Solid NI-I-INE.
The crest of the Radiohead bell-curve.
Yes it is
It did have a good run the summer of '97 when OK Computer came out. I remember seeing the video on MTV quite often...
MTV was showing music videos in 1997? I thought they stopped such unthinkable practices by the mid-1980s.

It did have a good run the summer of '97 when OK Computer came out. I remember seeing the video on MTV quite often, and I heard it on the radio here in Boston a few times too - but we had an AMAZING alt-rock station, so might have been special.
However, the song/vid didn't endure play beyond the summer.
I'm assume many have tried to LRC it and failed. What gives?
It was added in January 2014 perhaps thanks to your comment.
I have a couple things to address your comment by way of speculation, with the caveat that I really have no idea what in the fuck I am talking about. K?
I think there might be some sort of business consideration at work where it becomes a matter of what the cost is and what the royalty payments are. No?
Also, I think there SHOULD be a limit on the number of songs for a CD in the playlist because RP needs to keep in mind that if you play the whole CD on the air then no one will need to purchase it. I think this must be a consideration because I can't imagine the bands being in favor of the whole CD played on the air -- they want to make money.
Also, i am not sure why you think Paranoid Android is such a hit song ----- not in the US it wasnt. I have never heard that played anywhere. Karma Police was the hit single from OKC.

Because this would happen and we'd never be able to return to our working-worlds again.
That is precisely why I keep a helmet handy .
It wards off the Yorke worms .
It's not your fault.

This has to be one of the most insightful comments that I've ever read.
11!!!
Damn, you nailed it.....I am equal brain power, an artist, designer, a landscaper and a cook. NO math thought, well, the average overall is good for radiohead. I love them.........
If you don't like this song then you are probably listening to the wrong site. Just Google "Top 40" and i'm sure you will find some music more suited to your taste.
RH, or Top 40? That's the A to Z of your music universe? I'll keep that in mind next time I notice some smug hipster griping about too much Pink Floyd, or Jazz, or Classical, or anything else on RP that ISN'T Top 40. "Don't like this one band? Leave RP and find a Top 40 station."
You seem to imply that RH is ALL there is on RP. God forbid. Fortunately, RP is Paradise for real music lovers as well as RH's fans.
The Essence of Life. Want some?
God what drugs does it take for this dirge to "soar"?

...this is MAGNIFICENT. Where's the 11
Indeed
Lucky I can hit the Stop or PSD buttons.
Please Great FSM, make RadioHead and Thom Yorke's teeth go away.
I'm sorry. I know everyone has different tastes. But you have to be kidding. This is MAGNIFICENT. Where's the 11
NOW HERES some QUALITY MUSIC!
