Off of 1994’s Itch EP, “Banana Co.” is silly and lackadaisical enough to be considered pop-rock parody. “Banana Co.” “Street Spirit (Fade Out)” single (1996) Thom “can’t put the needle in,” in case you missed those lyrics repeated a thousand times. “Faithless, the Wonder Boy” “Anyone Can Play Guitar” single (1993)Ī typical mopey song that resonates with teens in the maelstrom of puberty, but ceases to translate years later. Either way, the avian metaphor is heavyhanded. Yorke could be addressing war or he could be addressing love. A five-minute search for a catchy chorus that goes undiscovered. “Yes I Am” “Creep” single (1992)Ī Pablo Honey-era ditty with little to offer in way of melody or lyrics. “MK 2” In Rainbows bonus disc (2007)Īs the second “MK” interlude from In Rainbows’ second disc, “MK 2” serves well as an attention-grabbing precursor for “Last Flowers” seeing as it sounds a bit like a theremin symphony. “Nothing Touches Me” Pablo Honey (1991)ĭespite a traffic-jammed organ and Colin Greenwood peppering his bass lines with eighth notes, the song gets sunk by the moodiness of Thom Yorke’s speak-singing.

The Fab Five of Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Colin Greenwood, Ed O’Brien, and Phil Selway have quite the track record.focu When the dust settles, you can only hope that with a bit of reasoning and compromise that you’ve compiled the best order.
