Kind of a stupid question, really. People have different tastes. It's been that way for quite some time now. | ||

I know TL has a large base of radiohead fans and I was hoping for someone who could explain what makes this song so popular. | ||

But I see this has turned into a "this thread is irrelevent" thread, so I will stop defending it. | ||

They didn't even play the song during the concert in Rolling Stone's latest review. Maybe you could link me to the reviews you read. Also, the song isn't that bad. What about it don't you like? | ||

I was very envious of a friend who went to Montreal for a radiohead concert so I read many of the reviews here: http://www.greenplastic.com/tourdates.php "The crowd went wild when 'The National Anthem' started." The more I looked into crowd favorites and song reviews it just seemed this track kept on coming up. | ||

2. Paranoid Android - OK Computer 3. I Want None of This - Help: A Day in the Life 4. Lucky - OK Computer 5. Fake Plastic Trees - The Bends 6. True Love Waits - I Might Be Wrong 7. Street Spirit (Fade Out) - The Bends 8. Karma Police - OK Computer 9. Exit Music (For a Film) - OK Computer 10. There There - Hail to the Thief Those are mine I think. There are more that are close, such as Pearly and Like Spinning Plates off of I Might Be Wrong, but only 10 spots is T_T. I can't help but feel like I'm missing a couple though. | ||

There is no order, no harmony, just a cacophony of sounds that together build up into this brilliant nonstop audible sensation, that abruptly breaks down to a more mellowed down version of itself into a confusing finale. Yet everything somehow makes sense. lol wtf it's not classical music bro, these guys are far from deserving the kind of masterpiece-esque dissection you just gave that song. it's a few guys smoking pot and jamming, and that's all it should be digested as. my lord. | ||
