I can never listen to Weird Fishes without thinking of the classic shreds version. It's a great track though and gets my vote. I'd probably put it behind There, There and Nude personally but still a good naughts pick from the Radioheads.

Sophia didn't really grab me. I liked the singer but not so much the song.

I'm in the Radiohead are overrated camp, so I'm generally on the lookout for reasons to vote against them.

This didn't quite give me one.

Not one of my favourite Radiohead songs (or albums), and Sophie sounded like Beck around Sea Change era. It's a close one, I'll have to think a bit more

Never really cared for Weird Fishes, and the Sophia track was nice. Voted for Sophia.

One of Radiohead's best songs, so I wasn't expecting this matchup to be so close in quality, but I really enjoyed Swept Back too. Ended up voting for Radiohead anyway.

is it too late to swap my nomination? i realized after the fact that hayden nominated idioteque... kinda wish i went off the board instead of nominating thom thom and the radio heads.

but yeah. sophia has grown on me some, but weird fishes is one of those songs that's taken a piece of me with it.

Nice David vs. Goliath matchup! Really dig both. BUT I'm a total Radiohead Stan so that's my pick. In Rainbows might be their best! Or is it amnesiac? 🤔
