The Tourist is the weakest track on Ok Computer for me. Motion Picture Soundtrack is absolutely wonderful though.

Surprised to not see Motion Picture Soundtrack from Kid A anywhere on here, that's one of my favorites. Besides that though, Ok Computer "The Tourist," American Idiot "Whatshername", maybe "A Wolf At The Door," of course "A Day In The Life," and a personal fav, "The End of all Things" from PATD TWTLTRTD

The Tourist by Radiohead, Whatsername by Green Day, Desolation Row by Bob Dylan, but for me my number one has to be Octavarium by Dream Theater.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned "This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody)" from Talking Heads' Speaking in Tongues.
