funny how someone can hate so much what another loves.

i think it's a classic and find it hard to call "the worst song ever written" when so many like it.

Radiohead is So F***ing Special!

Those crunchy guitars give me chills every time I hear them. One of my all time favorite songs.

I'd rather eat glass while listening to Willie and Julio sing To All The Girls I've Loved Before, followed by Paul Anka singing Havin My Baby.

Absolutely f**king horrendous.

Radiohead's intended audience may comprise the young or poorly educated -- people who need to sprinkle their speech with empty emphasizers due to an inability to select more expressive words. The songwriter certainly lacks the ability.

I don't think I've ever heard the "radio version" since, in my country, there's never any need to filter English-language lyrics. (You should hear the foreign rap songs aired in Burger King.) But frankly, I'd never heard of Radiohead until I started listening to Radio Paradise, so I'm not even sure they're played here.

this song remind me so many forgotten moments when I was little girl ...

Well that's just too bad. =P Myself, I am amazed at the beauty of the usage of the F word in this song. Thank GOD someone has the guts to play the real version!

Oh yeah! Heard this so many times and still love it.

I have to say for the first time I like the clean (radio version) over the one that has him swearing, "So Fu##n special"

I dont know why... I just didnt need to hear the Fu in the song

Some songs its needed... some it isnt

I love the sound this song has ... its like being hit with a tidal wave of sound and then lifted gently by his voice and put down softly

Very nice

This is clearly a modern musical masterpiece. Naysayers must be exclusively classic-rock over-the-air radio station listeners.

My highest Radiohead rating yet - a whopping 3.

The accoustic version has a more subtle appeal with the except of some minor 'high-note' reaching on Mr. York's part.

Okay, point well made. I'll have to check him out. 'Technically skilled soulless guitarists' (and the criticism of great musicians who don't have text-book technique) is exactly what I was getting at.

Off topic, but I feel sorry you feel Vai is not a musician... There are plenty of technically skilled soulless guitarists out there, but Vai is definitely not one of them.

Just what was needed -

Lousy guitar playing? Nothing quite like the 'ker-chunk' in this song has ever been heard before or since...it's brilliant guitar playing! Johnny Greenwood - a musician; Steve Vai - not a musician.

I play piano, not guitar. To my ears, it sounds appropriate for the style of grunge that I'm familiar with. Criticizing it for being poorly played ignores what a well-written song it is. I give it a 9 for a beautiful melody and the honest lyrics.

I had to give it a 1 simply because I haven't heard such lousy guitar playing since the last Green Day song.

I have the album, but IMHO this song sticks out so high above the other songs on it, that you'd still not reach the same level if you'd stack them all up.

of all the songs in the world, i wish i coulda written this one...like a jacket broken in just right...ahhh...thank you...jonny greenwood is one of the best musicians in the history of the world...
