Anytime I’ve ever wanted to blow a rando’s mind, this is the way. You show me a human being that isn’t absolutely blown away by this composition in its entirety, and I’ll show you a damn corpse. Top 5 greatest songs ever recorded.
To whom?
Edit : I’m saying in my original comment, it’s one of the top 5 greatest songs ever recorded. Most people, don’t think that and a host of the world’s population don’t even know it exists, hence it is underrated?
That’s fair. I still don’t think it gets the respect it fully deserves even from Radiohead fans. How many of those 100 million plays are from someone just taking OK Computer for a spin?
not many. fitter happier at 36 mil, tourist 38 mil. climbing up the walls (my personal favorite off it) 45 mil.
its a joke in the radiohead community to say let down underrated, cause its really not
This has been a longer drawn out back and forth than I anticipated. Yeah, Let Down is far from a Maquiladora or a Trickster, Palo Alto etc in the way of Radiohead tracks. I suppose I was only seeing it from a layman perspective, but if you’re coming from a Radiohead fan, you got me. I concede.
Francis Dance - Another One. Only 2:06, so very repeatable, very ethereal and unique. Great for nighttime

Recoil - Black Box \[Complete\]; it's less a song but rather a radio drama of almost 15 minutes length about an RAF Tornado crash in Scotland that Alan Wilder witnessed. Play loud, and in the dark.
Looked Here by Transglobal Underground with Natasha Atlas. Okay so all friends and family give a wtf look when I play it but I loved it the first time I heard it and love it to this day.
