Question: A song from each of your favorite band's albums which could/should have been a single, but wasn't!.!.!.!?
Radiohead
Pablo Honey: "Lurgee" (Enchanting pop song)
The Bends: "The Bends" (Intense, rousing guitar-driven song!. Though so were "Just" and "My Iron Lung," both released as singles)
OK Computer: "Let Down" (If I was an EMI executive listening to this album for the first time in the '90s, "Let Down" would have been the song I chose to be the lead single!. It's an uplifting, epic song!. I read it was going to be a single, but the band wasn't satisfied with the music video!. lol)
Kid A: No singles were released from this album!. ("Optimistic" and "Everything in its Right Place" would have the best choices if Radiohead wished to release singles from the album!. In fact, "Optimistic" charted despite not being a retail single)
Amnesiac: "You and Whose Army!?"
Hail to the Thief: "A Punchup at a Wedding"
In Rainbows: Half of the album has been released as singles!. lol "Bodysnatchers," "House of Cards," "Jigsaw Falling into Place," "Nude," and most recently "Reckoner!." Of what's left, definitely "Weird Fishes/Arpeggi," despite the very strange title!. For the longest time, it was the top selling In Rainbows song on iTunes!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Radiohead!. Words cannot describe my love for them!.
I agree with everything you said!.
I mostly agree with The Bends!. That should have been a single!. It is definatly one of Radioheads best songs!.
In Rainbows was a blow to me and I didn't really enjoy it!. Jigsaw Falling Into Place and Reckoner are probably my favorites from the Album!.
