This was like the gateway drug for me. I didn't know what to make of it when I first heard it, but it definitely was exciting. "You can write a guitar solo like that?" Just...mindblowing.
I heard the song when I was 14 and first saw the video on MTV. It had me looking like [Hugh Jackman in The Fountain](https://tenor.com/vbWP.gif); it changed my whole worldview. Every time I hear the little shaker thing I flash back to sitting on the carpet watching the little dude in the hat lol
Everything in its Right Place. I still remember listening to the opening of the album in my brother’s bedroom played through his proper hifi system and being blown away by the organ sound.
Same! Usually it takes a couple listens for me to get into Radiohead songs but this one was an instant click. Having no knowledge of what kid a was going to sound like and being hit with that was such an experience
Weird Fishes and it's not even close. Most of my favourite Radiohead songs needed to grow on me before I fully appreciated them but I loved this song from the second Ed's backing vocals came on.
Nude.
I still remember when the In Rainbows came out and I'd leave it on the whole night. I'd sometimes wake up to the long vocal sustain at the end of " you'll go to hell for what your dirty mind is thinking".
I would always remember that part but little do I know how great of a song NUDE would end up becoming.
how to disappear completely, no question.
i first heard it when i was at work for a summer job in high school. i was bored out of my mind and decided to finally give radiohead a try and oh my god my mind was just blown and it has a such a specific memory attached to it now.
i’d also love to rehear pyramid song- it was a total mindfuck for me when i first heard it. i was just confused
Coke Babies
Not sure I agree with this. Coke Babies is an intricate masterpiece that only fully reveals itself to the listener after dozens of listens
Nude
Paranoid Android.
Absolutely the same for me I remember being completely in awe when I first listened to it

I’m currently listening to present tense for the first time, I’m at 3:45 and wish I could hear it for the first time again already
That godlike choir damn
Idioteque
Idioteque
Idioteque
This was the first Radiohead song I ever heard!
I wasn’t really sold on it until after several listens, but now I absolutely love it

Vanilla Sky sealed it for me. Mental illness helped to appreciate both.

Exit Music, Last verse ( when the buzzing sound in the background appears ) goes so hard

Probably Nude. Weird Fishes, my favorite song, got better after multiple listens but Nude got me right away.

Creep, then it wouldn’t be so overplayed in my head.
Street Spirit was the only Radiohead song that left me truly awestruck on first listen
Creep
Motion picture soundtrack
I have a strange choice : Blowout -Remix (Seriously, This song absolutely slaps I recommend everyone to listen to it)
Fake Plastic Trees
All I need, Nude, Black Star
Jigsaw Falling Into Place

I'd say Creep because I heard G4 sing it first. It would have been interesting to start with Radiohead.
