Members Supreme Pancake Posted October 16, 2007 Members Share Posted October 16, 2007 Oh, I love the song, it just doesn;t strike me as a good closing song for the album. Pretty much all Radiohead albums have great closers. Motion Picture Soundtrack being my favourite for the harp alone. Pharoah Sanders - Colors(Karma) The Beach Boys - Surfs Up(Surfs Up) Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Cowgirl In The Sand(Everybody Knows..) Charles Mingus - Freedom(Mingus Mingus..)

Members HMKRich Posted October 16, 2007 Members Share Posted October 16, 2007 Inspired by HMKRich's thread: http://acapella.harmony-central.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1773426I'm always awed by the number of great finales in Rock's album history, probably more so than the openers. To kick things off: Tomorrow Never Knows, The Beatles, Revolver The End, The Doors, The Doors When The Levee Breaks, Led Zeppelin, IV Subterraneans, Bowie, Low Love Is Blindness, U2, Achtung Baby Soon, My Bloody Valentine, Loveless The Tourist, Radiohead, OK Computer An inspired thread, I'd say. Obsession - Cutting Edge Fore - Delirious?Mothers of the Disappeared - The Joshua Tree - U240 - War - U2Whipping Post - Live at Fillmore East - The Allman Brothers BandYou Can't Always Get What You Want - Let It Bleed - Rolling StonesSave Me - The Game - QueenFree Bird - Pronounced - Lynyrd Skynyrd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah bummer.When they played in Boston previewing some of the In Rainbows songs, they soundchecked it, so it was nice to hear that they were including it in the set. But alas, no "Paranoid Android". I guess it comes with the territory of having so many good songs to choose from and knowing that some omissions will disappoint people no matter what you decide.

Members MacBradley Posted October 17, 2007 Members Share Posted October 17, 2007 I just listened to a song that gets the win from me, it's "Wow" every time. "Only in Dreams" off Blue Album by Weezer. The buildup and finish with dueling guitars soloing only multiplies this song's awesomeness. It gives me goose bumps everytime! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
