However, I would like the Amnesiac set because Hail to the Thief does magical things with the guitar alone. I'm fond of their their direction towards electronica but Hail to the Thief is also one of their longest albums making it that much better.

I have to have one? I would have to say 'Paranoid Android'...the "rain down" part is beautiful ...or '12 Step' because it's got a groovy beat and I can dance to it. I would really dig that Amnesiac set. My favorite Radiohead song? I have to have one?

Way back in the good old days of 2006, I somehow managed to obtain two tickets to see Radiohead at the Greek Theatre. Unbelievable, right? I managed to score bleacher seats, but didn't mind. The better part of this story? The tickets got upgraded to PIT… I was about 5 feet from Thom York with my girlfriend at the time, for the entire night. I've attended approximately 400+ concerts since the age of 17. I'm 23 now, so I've got a good six years of shows on my belt at this point. Hands down, this night was the most earth shattering show I've ever witnessed. The set consisted of more than 25 songs, and the night ended with "Lucky," my favorite Radiohead track. I closed my eyes, tilted my head back, and felt like my soul was flying away from me. The strobes from their stage set up struck my closed eyes, and everything went red. It was as if I was having a near-death experience. The feeling was indescribable, and to this day I've not once felt anything like it. Plus, I was completely sober! No drugs, no alcohol; just the music. I've yet to see Radiohead play again as tickets sell out instantly, and get jacked up by at least 5 times the original cost. However I'm sure one day I'll be able to see them again, and hopefully the experience will be just as amazing as it was in 2006. I would adore to get a copy of Kid A if it's available still  Cheers, -J Following (@ohgrpup)

The rhythmic and harmonic potential for both of these songs is limitless. The band was definitely looking forward when they released this album, and these songs stand the test of time and taste when I listen to them nine years after their release. Radiohead explores variations in instrumentation and musicianship in piecing these masterpieces together, layering each track with sounds and chords that are unconventional in rock and pop. Epic. Truly epic. I'd love the Kid A collection. :Idioteque" and "Everything in Its Right Place" from the Kid A album are by far my favorite Radiohead tracks.

"Idioteque" because this beautifully haunting piece is what solidified their "new" sound. Rock was out and Electronic was in and nothing packaged this deal better than this masterpiece. If the end is near, this shall be our soundtrack. I'd take Kid A. :) following on twitter (@xmastreejones). "Idioteque" because this beautifully haunting piece is what solidified their "new" sound.
