High and Dry? seriously? It's pretty much the worst post-Pablo Honey radiohead song. And I'd probably put..well, shit I'll just do it really quick, why not.

1. Street Spirit
2. Planet Telex
3. Nice Dream
4. Bulletproof
5-11. All other songs are pretty interchangeable with me except for...
12. High and Dry

That said, I used to love the Bends, but it's aged more than any other radiohead album.

well, my top 4 are pretty much interchangeable; that's just the one I happen to be feeling the most right now.

Who the hell puts black star 2nd last???

this is off-topic, but I have to say I was a little surprised that the Bends didn't get any sort of 10th-year special edition reissue.

I don't understand any of this "Planet Telex" love, either; I think it's a boring song with the single most annoying vocal Thom's ever done (although I haven't listened to Pablo Honey in a long time, so there could be something worse on there).

1. My Iron Lung
2. Just
3. Everything else

chap, Sunday, 15 April 2007 02:46 (eighteen years ago)

didn't we do this a while back?

anyway:
1. My Iron Lung
2. Nice Dream
3. Black Star
4. Just
5. Street Spirit
6. Planet Telex
7. The Bends
8. Bones
9. Sulk
10. High & Dry
11. Bullet Proof...I Wish I Was
12. Sulk

this album would be perfect if it weren't for my 11 and 12. not that those are bad songs. i just think they're boring. high & dry kinda had a big impression on me when i was kid. i guess that's why i still like it.

I sold my copy of the Bends and I'll likely never be able to live it down.
Temporary Insanity?

Bimble, Sunday, 15 April 2007 03:47 (eighteen years ago)

i haven't listened to this album in about 2 years, but here we go:

1. the bends
2. planet telex
3. bones
4. street spirit (fade out)
5. just
6. black star
7. bullet proof..i wish i was
8. my iron lung
9. high and dry
10. sulk
11. fake plastic trees
12. (nice dream)

srsly, planet telex in my opinion is the gold standard of rock songs that all other verse-chorus-verse type songs aspire to be. It is on another plane of perfection.



And don't get me wrong; black star is fantastic. I just think all the other songs are more fantastic. That list is basically 1. Planet Telex, 2. Just and My Iron Lung and Sulk, and 3. everything else but Bulletproof at a close 3rd

Stevie D, Sunday, 15 April 2007 07:54 (eighteen years ago)

1. Just
2. My Iron Lung
3. The Bends
4-11. Everything else
12. Sulk

Roz, Sunday, 15 April 2007 11:15 (eighteen years ago)

funny farm put the same song at numbers 9 and 12. I don't really like Radiohead.
