See, now I don't get why people who are into Radiohead would expect them to do another album that sounded the same as Ok Computer. I mean, they have traditionally brought their music to a different level with each release. Ironically, Kid A and Amnesiac are the most similar albums they have released since Pablohoney. Why would you want to listen to a band who rehashed their old music in the first place? I don't know, I don't typically listen for artists in that realm of thinking. I want to see them change because if it is an expression of themselves, the music will change with them. Just a thought.

Mine used to be track 3, but lately it has been really random.

Disagree, but I do love it. :-) I like Amber the best.
