If you were going to make a mix CD of Radiohead songs

[XemaSab]

for someone who thinks Radiohead "sucks," what would you put on it?

[Blarch]

1. Ummmm ...?

Paranoid Android

No Alarms

Karma Police

And the most deadly of the songs, Fake Plastic trees. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBRdet5Ehyo

[AbbeyRoad]

2. Street Spirit(Fade Out)

Knives Out
Jigsaw Falling Into Place
Pyramid Song
Nude

Picking out just a few is a bit overwhelming, but I like the ones already mentioned in the post above and these too.

If someone already thinks Radiohead sucks, it'll probably be difficult to convince them otherwise.

[Whoa_Nelly]

3. Creep

From Pablo Honey album

Am not a huge Radioheaad fan, but I like the song, "Creep"

4. Aw, thanks, X,

but no thanks! Don't waste your time! My mind is made up!:rofl:

Truly - I :thumbsdown: not one, but two Radiohead songs on Pandora this week. The only :thumbsdown: I've given in the last month. Those guys really suck! Whiny poseur music, IMO, but to each their own, I guess...:shrug:

5. I don't think Radiohead "sucks", but am a weirdo in that

I don't really care for much I've heard by them after The Bends. So, my picks probably aren't representative of the sound that most of their fans like them for... But I at least feel adequately equipped to make recs from the first two albums, from which Iwould include "You," "Creep," "Thinking About You," and "Blowout" from the debut, and "The Bends," "High and Dry," "Planet Telex," "(Nice Dream)," and "Black Star" from The Bends. (You'd probably have to make it a double if you stuck all those from just the first two albums on it, though!)

[Danger Mouse]

6. I'd go with a wide variety of songs.

A Wolf at the Door
Black Star
Planet Telex
Street Spirit (Fade Out)
All I Need
Videotape
Talk Show Host
Just
Let Down
Optimistic
Motion Picture Soundtrack
Hunting Bears
The Pyramid Song
Creep
Killer Cars
Maquiladora
Meeting in the Aisle
Cuttooth.

That just about represents all types of their music, and is a good collection of some of their best songs.

Incidentally, their best songs are 'Black Star' 'Street Spirit' 'Paranoid Android' 'A Wolf At the Door' 'Motion Picture Soundtrack' and 'All I Need' :P

7. the "mix" would last a few hours. It would consist of OK Computer, The Bends, Amnesiac, Kid A,...

Pablo Honey, but not so much from Hail to the Theif or In Rainbows

[XemaSab]

8. "Hail" is my favorite album

:P

9. Hail to the Theif and In Rainbows are amazing albums.
