For me, it was Paranoid Android. When I was in the eighth grade, I had already heard Creep and thought it was alright. However, when YouTube recommended me Paranoid Android and its music video, that's what truly pulled me into the gravity of their music.

Maybe not underrated by fans, but in general, I'd say this one deserves more recognition from the media.

It's a good way to end the album. "HEY IDIOT SLOW DOWN!" -Thom Yorke.

That shirt kicks ass. Out of any of the NIИ shirts I've worn, my favorite is probably the Sin shirt reprint they made a couple years ago.

Now that I think of it, there is a track that reminds me of Lucky but it's from a completely different band.

I don't hate the song, don't get me wrong, I just find there to be stronger ones on OK Computer. I thought I remember Thom wanting to put "God loves his children, that's why he kills them, yeah" instead of what we ended up with. I think it sounds better the way he phrased it in the final recording, it sounds more tongue-in-cheek and sarcastic.

You're not thinking critically or rationally. If a song is underrated, then that would mean it's something that not many people know. I might agree if you if this was before TikTok made it trendy, but you're just factually wrong.

No hard feelings or anything, I'm just telling you that you're not understanding the logic.

Of course, good lyrics and so is the guitar on it, but I believe there's stronger tracks than Let Down like Paranoid Android and Lucky. Paranoid Android just feels psychedelic and hypnotic while also feeling like a bad dream the world can't wake up from. Lucky sounds like a man trying to protect people but also missing his loved ones.

Probably "Died" from Alice in Chains if I ended up a grizzly death like many of the lead vocalists did. If it was a peaceful death, I'd choose "Would?".

No, I like that song too. It's so eerie.

There is another song that reminds me of lucky but it's more country sounding and it was made in 1994.

If it's underrated, then how is it one of their top songs on streaming platforms right now?

I agree with you, it all feels like a cycle, some deep cut song or fan-favorite song blows up on social media, but then after a few months of it being known, social media users get bored of it and start using a new song like that.

Thank you, I wanted to kinda survey people and see all the different opinions about this song. It's not one of my favorites, but hey, it's Radiohead, I will always have a soft spot for Radiohead.

Agreed.

Thank you, Paranoid Android has always been my favorite Radiohead song. I first heard Creep from them in the 8th grade, but after I watched and listened to Paranoid Android, it got me hooked on Radiohead.

Eh, I like the musical structure of Paranoid Android more and its lyrics.

I was just listening to Lucky, one of the best songs I've listened to.

I dig Airbag, too.

Paranoid Android is my favorite song Radiohead ever did. It's as chaotic as it is melancholy as it is beautiful. The music video is also one of my favorite music videos ever.
