#11 - High & Dry

Average Score - 7.68372093
Highest: 10 (Jomarr, Supaspaz, BnPac, Ace Reject, Classic Mainstream, Coolestperson12, MP2K, Cobrastyle, nico..)
Lowest: 1 (rlj)

"High & Dry" was recorded for Pablo Honey. The band, however, felt it didn't sound good enough. They remastered and rerecorded it for The Bends, however, and it became one of their biggest American radio hits. This song is one of their most accessible to date (aside from the obvious), and while it is generally loved, it has some intense haters, including Thom Yorke himself.

I kinda like "High & Dry." I am, however, kinda relieved it didn't make the top 10. Yes, there are worse songs in the top 10 (specifically, two of them), but this song just doesn't have much replay value to me. I enjoy it rarely, but only rarely. 7.8

You are such a tease

Edit: But now, Im relieved, I always skip High and Dry, my least favorite from The Bends

And lol at Lotus Flower making it to the top 10, its a nice surprise.

[Blueberry Mary]

so many great songs have left

To think High and Dry is still in this

EDIT:

[Eric.]

The song is rather meh and the verses are boring. It's got that 90s alt rock charm, though.

[madonnas]

So the top 10 is

Street Spirit (Fade Out)

Paranoid Android
Karma Police
No Surprises

Everything In Its Right Place
Idioteque

Pyramid Song

There There

15 Step

Lotus Flower



What are your predictions?

[Gui Blackout]

23 Creep
24 2+2 = 5
25 Bodysnatchers

Wrong. Just very very wrong, in so many ways.

[Blueberry Mary]

This is what I want from #1 - #10

Idioteque
15 Step
Street Spirit
No Suprises
Everything is in it's right place
Pyrimid Song
Karma Police
Paranoid Android
Lotus Flower
There There

What do you think of today's elminations? You had a few 10s go.

[jqnetto]

My Guess:

#1 No Surprises
#2 Paranoid Android
#3 Everything In Its Right Place
#4 Street Spirit (Fade Out)
#5 Karma Police
#6 Idioteque
#7 There There
#8 Pyramid Song
#9 15 Step
#10 Lotus Flower

[Eric.]

The correct Top 5 (in no order) includes:

15 Step
Paranoid Android
Everything In Its Right Place
Idioteque
Street Spirit (Fade Out)

[madonnas]

Honestly, Lotus Flower is a shock in the top 10, but I SCREAMED when I found out Street Spirit was in the top 10. I didn't even know people liked the song.

This rate proved to be unpredictable. The only thing Im quite sure about is that Paranoid Android will be among the top 3... at least I hope so

[BnPac]

At least it is close to top 10. I adore the song. I'm so amazed at Lotus Flower still being there, my last 10.

[madonnas]

Okay, same time tomorrow I'll do 10-6

[Changes]

One of my 10's almost making the top 10 and the other one is in it. I guess I have good Radiohead taste.

[thediscomonkey]

1. Karma Police
2. Paranoid Android
3. Idioteque
4. 15 Step
5. There There
6. No Surprises
7. Pyramid Song
8. Everything In Its Right Place
9. Street Spirit (Fade Out)
10. Lotus Flower

I mean, i'm literally offended that 2+2 = 5, Fake Plastic Trees and Creep are out already.

And why the hell is Lotus Flower and Street Spirit (Fade Out) on the Top 10?

[Ewan Chaos]

16: Thank God, that song is overrated.
15: Aw I liked this one. Should have gone farther. Gave it a 9.
14: I liked this one too! Another 9.
13: Meh I only gave this a 7 so this is fine for me.
12: WHAT THE EFF my only other 10 gone and it's not even the top 10 yet?! I'm fumin.
11: Another nine, so this is disappointing, but I like the other 9s that were out before this more so I suppose this is a good spot.

WOW. What a bad day! Only one song I was happy to see out and one I was meh about. And one of my favorites was already out! AND THAT SONG I GAVE A 5 WHY IS IT STILL HERE. I knew the song would be one that everyone likes... I don't wanna name it until it's out and I can celebrate.

UUGHHHH I don't even know what to root for anymore. I don't even know how many songs that I gave 9s to are still here.

I'm really confused about those two I think they just didn't get lots of bad scores.

[supaspaz]

"15 Step" and "Lotus Flower" over "High and Dry" and "Reckoner"? I...don't get it.
