Best Radiohead Song: The Bends - Antsmarching.org Forums

thebridge15 · 02-23-2011, 04:06 PM

Since more albums than not have more than ten songs, voting will consist of each member who would like to participate posting their top 2 songs (which will receive equal point value) and bottom 1 (which will take away half a point).

The Bends will be first and will be followed chronologically. It can be discussed during this vote and the next ones what to do with Pablo Honey and The King of Limbs.

Ballots are due by 7 on Friday. Discussion is encouraged.

Planet Telex
The Bends
High and Dry
Fake Plastic Trees
Bones
(Nice Dream)
Just
My Iron Lung
Bullet Proof...I Wish I Was
Black Star
Sulk
Street Spirit (Fade Out)

Boo ya

I feel like high and dry should have been on Pablo and one of the bends b-sides should have taken it's place. It's a good song but it's always felt out of place to me

I've always loved the lyrics to High and Dry.

"two jumps in a week i bet you think thats pretty clever, don't you boy?"

i think its probably the most traditionally pop-sounding song radiohead have done, that might be why it gets overlooked. I cant figure it out.

The repetitive chorus is what kills it for me. I know they do that alot but on high and dry its annoying

Just

This whole album is excellent... It's not that I don't like Just, it just ended up there through process of elimination.

Why doesn't anyone like Bones???

**Arby** · 02-23-2011, 04:47 PM

Very surprised to see Just as so many peoples least favorite. Its probably 3rd or 4th best for me.

Swizz2007 · 02-23-2011, 04:48 PM

Just is not in my top 2..but it's in my top half and way too many people are voting for it, so
