OK Computer <3

Was this the one that was a survey/poll? There was a survey one done a while ago and OK Computer won, but there was a more recent one, this year, and it came in 5th. Oasis won:rolleyes:

But yeah, OK Computer always wins. Haha, there was one last year for the greatest album of the last 25 years by Spin magazine (it was their 25th birthday) and OK Computer won. And get this; in a reader's poll for Q magazine this year for the greatest ablums ever, OK Computer by Radiohead came in 1st, The Bends by Radiohead came in 2nd, and Kid A by Radiohead came in 10th. Their album Amnesiac came in 60th too.

I love every song on OK Computer except for Subterranean Homesick Alien. Its weird. The chorus when he shouts "uptight!" is great, but the rest of the song is... kinda bad. The rolling stone greatest 500 list was the only list Ive seen where The Bends is higher than OK Computer.

I think most of the list is reasonable. Im suprised how high Parachutes is. I thought AROBTTH would be up there.

I personally hate all of this new crap, I like the old stuff. But I can saftly say that Guns N' Roses have been very successful with their albums, songs and stuff.

Iron Maiden not in it? :o
