    I heard often that "Fitter Happier" was unnecessary, and as far as I remember Thom said that as well. But in my opinion it fits so perfectly, makes this album more unique and gives this dystopian feel.

      I'd have replaced it with Meeting in the Isle since that song was recorded at the same time as Ok Computer, but after all these years it'd feel weird to not listen to Fitter Happier lol.

    I do personally find OK Computer to be far darker than The Bends due to the fact that OKC is all about the cold horrors and loneliness of the modern world, and the mental and emotional state of the people living in it.
    The Bends is absolutely heartbreaking, yes. But to me, while The Bends is about the struggles of a single person, Ok Computer is about the struggles of the entire world.

      I disagree about it being used well in Westworld, that was lazy filmmaking where they relied too heavily on a pre-established emotional response from the song to do the emotional heavy lifting of the scene. Some movies iconically pair up a song with a scene and it creates new life -- Westworld's use of Radiohead tunes (there were a few) felt cheap and lazy. They certainly didn't make the show any better.

      Hail to the Thief was two or three songs too long. Other than that, it's a pretty damn good album. There, There is a masterpiece and 2+2=5 is, without a doubt, their best opener.

    For the longest time I ranked this as the best album I’ve ever heard, and it may still be that though I haven’t really thought about that idea for a while. I bought this back in high school and it just blew my mind. I later went on to become a huge fan of electronic music and I think this album, and of course Kid A, opened my mind to that and almost prepared me. The weird sounds, strange production, the beautiful songs and performances, it’s almost perfect. I wish Fitter Happier and Electioneering weren’t on it or it might be perfect. Still it may be the closest album I’ve heard to perfection.

    I've been waiting 20 years for a worthy follow up. The other albums are good, but they're all slow burners. In O.K. Computer every song was immediately accessible and in the hour or so it took to listen to it I felt I had arrived into another dimension. There's nothing else comparable.

    A women from EMI international claimed that radiohead went to one of their offices to take some copies of the "brave" album by marillion(1994),while they were creating OK computer,maybe they were just looking for progressive stuff ,but I can see some concepts and similarities between this two albums.
    For those who have never listened to "brave" ,"afraid of sunlight" or "radiation" I definitely recommend you to check them out,specially if you really like radiohead.
