While on the topic of Radiohead albums, High and Dry is awful, and makes The Bends worse than it otherwise would be. |
I really like the Bends, but tracks 7-11 are some of the most forgetful Radiohead songs ever excluding Black Star.

When I'm Sixty Four is so camp and annoying it hurts my enjoyment of Sgt. Pepper's a lot.

"Radio Cure" off Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
It just kills the vibe of the first half of that record for me.

I always have considered "Half" to be the weakest track on Superunknown BY FAR.
"Apple Bite" and "An Unkind" in Down on the Upside annoy me to no end, too.
I dislike "Take Me Down" in MCIS: Dawn to Dusk and "Tales of the Scorched Earth" in MCIS: Twilight to Starlight
Plus, "Pug" and "Annie Dog" from Adore
"Yellow Submarine" from Revolver. (duh)

When taken by itself, I guess it's kind of a weak song. But I've always seen it as the intro to Like Suicide, in which case I think it works extremely well. Sets it up perfectly.

The title track of Ladybird
The last three parts of Somnium
More seriously:
Corporal Clegg on Saucerful of Secrets (it's gotten better for me on further listens though, and I still like it a lot)
Jungleland on Born to Run (weak closer for an album that opens so well. Actually, the second side in general is weaker)
7th track on both Paranoid and Master of Reality
Treefingers on Kid A maybe
Probably others too, just can't remember right now.

hmmm... interesting, you have a good point. 
I think I should listen through the entire album again. I'm sure each song in the album has a particular role. "Kickstand", for example, is by no means my favorite song, but it does fulfill the purpose of re-energizing the listener w/ a quick change of pace from the dark, brooding themes and atmosphere developed in the songs prior to it. So I can see "Half" being a lead-in to the final track.

Real on "Good Kid Maad City". It's just sorta super corny but it doesn't quite kill it, still a brilliant album.
Oh and the friggin Chris Rock skit on MBDTF by Kanye! At first it was funny and great, but whereas the rest of the album has replay value, that little thing doesn't.
"Songs in the Key of Life" by Stevie has a few weaker tracks, but it really loses a bid for a perfect disc 1 by including that annoying fusion jazz peice "Contusion"

That's actually the highlight of the whole album for me. Ho hum.
