'Paranoid Android' Appreciation Thread

I keep having revelations about my tastes in music today.

It's occurred to me that 'Paranoid Android' by Radiohead may well be my second favoritest song ever of all time, amen.

I felt this needed to be shared. Thank you.

Amen. "OK" rocks all the way through, though. I've been spinning it a lot, in recent weeks.

PA's intro is gorgeous.

What's up, Anx!!!!

I think it's the best song they've ever done. No other song by them is more hypnotic or melodic. Only Radiohead would have the balls to release a single that breaks down into Monk like chanting just as you think it's ending, and then ends with furious guitar.

This is indeed one of the best rock tracks ever! I don't like rock but I love "Paranoid Android". Been spinning "OK Computer" a lot the last few days, but PA is certainly the best track on that album IMO. PS: They rock as a liveband too!
RIP Prince: thank U 4 a funky Time...
