Can't stand anything else they did but this song is perfect.
Not even something like Street Spirit (which isn't a million miles away in style)?

With the Regina Spektor version, you don't even need to hear Thom Yorke.
I can see how his Elmer Fudd style puts people off but the Radiohead version far superior (and I like Regina)

Barely fun fact: In Canada, it was released as An Alternative Use of Soap, and "Floorboards" opens side 2. I was baffled when I came across A Correct Use of Soap/

A bizarre tracklist overall:

Because You're Frightened
The Light Pours Out Of Me
You Never Knew Me
Upside Down
Sweetheart Contract
A Song From Under The Floorboards
Philadelphia
I Want To Burn Again
Stuck
Thank You (Falletin Me Be Mice Elf Agin)

I assume that's the Hannett version of "Light."

As I recall, yes, there are some differences beyond running order, but I don't have the vinyl anymore, so I can't compare.

Nope, don't like the tune, or much else really. The Bends is one hell of an overrated album. Ok Computer only beats it because of No Surprises.

I'll probably be supporting Elton + Bikini Kill.

There's a Collab that needs to happen.
If I get a sniff of a collab I will come down hard and change the rules 😂

Ok bear with me on this one. Take the track in isolation for its brilliance ( which it is) not the over played novelty some consider it to be!!!!

Come On Eileen - Dexys Midnight Runners

You penchant for changing the rules aside I think he meant a musical collaboration between the two artists
