I really don't get why so many people glaze this album, and I've heard so many people say "OK Computer is one of the best albums of all time!" but it's really not.

I think that this is an alright album, but not a great one. A few of the songs (eg. Paranoid Android and Tourist) are just too long to be engaging for me, but it has some songs that I really liked, those being Exit Music, Electioneering, Fitter Happier, and No Surprises. Other than those songs, the rest of them I either didn't like or were pretty average. Hate me all you want, but this album is super mid and I don't love it

Edit: Just to clarify, I'm fine with 5 minute songs, I'm a musical theatre kid, and I love plenty of songs that are 5 minutes or longer than that. The 5 minutes of those songs just weren't interesting enough for me to like, and Radiohead is not a band that I normally listen to

Edit 2: Again, it's not that the songs are too long, it's just that they didn't hold my interest for the entire length. I like plenty of longer songs but they hold my interest. Just because I don't personally like the album doesn't mean that you have to have a go at me for it, it just didn't land with me, and that should be fine. Don't shit on my music taste because it's different to yours and you think that yours is objectively right, despite music being a subjective thing

I really don't get why so many people glaze this album, and I've heard so many people say "OK Computer is one of the best albums of all time!" but I don't really get it.

I think that this is an alright album, but not a great one. Majority of the songs (eg. Paranoid Android and Tourist) just didn't hold my attention and focus for their full length, but it has some songs that I liked, those being Exit Music, Electioneering, Fitter Happier, and No Surprises. Other than those songs, the rest of them I either didn't like or I personally thought were pretty average.

I was a bit disappointed after listening to the album that I didn't like it that much. I get that other people like it, and I think it's okay that they like it, but it just wasn't for me. I think a major part of it is that I don't normally listen to that style of music.
