Quite possibly one of the most beautiful songs they've ever done. Thom sounds pretty fucking amazing on this song, and the cymbal work by Phil is top-notch.

    It is stunning.

    In Rainbows is my second favourite Radiohead just behind OK Computer.

    Yep, good song. In Rainbows as a whole really isn't stellar though, imo. Songs like Nude and All I Need are superb, and songs like Reckoner and House of Cards are pretty good too, but the rest is pretty forgettable for me.

    this and house of cards are the best parts of In Rainbows..unbelievable songs
    I've faced it, a life wasted, and I'm never going back again.

    Excellent song but it's no All I Need.

    yes, awesome song.
    The more I listen to in rainbows, the more I like it. And reckoner is, IMO, one of the best tracks of the album (with nude, all I need and jigsaw falling into place)
