    'Nude' Voted As Your Favourite Song On Radiohead's 'In Rainbows'

    A little over two weeks ago we asked Radiohead fans to vote for their favourite song from the Oxford band’s seventh opus ‘In Rainbows’, and now the results are in.

    More than 4,000 of you took part and top of the pile was the record’s third track ‘Nude’ with 18% of votes - a song that the band have been sitting on for over a decade and have only now perfected.

    On the day of the album’s release, we said of the song: “Destined to be yet another timeless Radiohead track (to the most ardent fans it already is), the band have finally tackled one of their most difficult works perfectly.”

    In second place with 16% of the votes is ‘Reckoner’ and in third is ‘All I Need’ with 13%. Bottom of the pile is ‘Faust Arp’ with just 4% of you saying it was your favourite.

    The breakdown of votes and the tracks’ respective positions is as follows:

    1. Nude - 18%
    2. Reckoner - 16%
    3. All I Need - 13%
    4. Jigsaw Falling Into Place - 11%
    5. Weird Fishes / Arpeggi - 9%
    6. 15 Step - 9%
    7. Videotape - 7%
    8. Bodysnatchers - 7%
    9. House of Cards - 6%
    10. Faust Arp - 4%

    • I’m surprised at videotape, bodysnatchers and house of cards being so low.

    • I totally agree with the first three. I don’t, however, agree that Faust Arp should be in last. Its pretty, and although my initial response to it was not positive, it has grown on me considerably.... Great album overall.

    • considering that a song as Faust Arp is in dead last says good things about the overall quality of the album...
