I'm of the persuasion that believes Radiohead is a dish best served in the coldness of Winter. I tried listening to a few tunes in the summer, but they just didn't seem right. I listened to a track this morning, but it was 30+ degrees here today, so I'm still waiting for the right moment to re-align myself with Radiohead.
OK, I'm going to stop talking....n....ow. No, I'm not. OK, now I am.

I can't say I had the same experience, it seems to me I listened to an extraordinary amount of Radiohead during the early summer, but then I stopped later...I don't think it was due to the season though. I also just realized that I was expecting a new album any day now for about 11 months.
Why do you lie to yourself? You and I both know that you don't listen to Radiohead in the summer. No-one does.
Weirdo.

In that case, what the hell are you doing here? You're not so f*cking special.

I absolutely disagree. There were so many low points to that album, it almost makes me not want to admit I'm a radiohead fan - and I am in fact fond of earlier works, including Kid A, Ok computer and The bends.
I've been listening to a lot of B-Sides lately like: Yes I Am, How Can You Be Sure?, India Rubber, Maquiladora, Cuttooth, ect ect. Awesome songs. Their B-sides are a lot better than what some people release as singles!

That's always the case when really talented bands do have b-sides. It's not necessarily because they wasn't good enough, the just might not have fitted.
I love Banana Co. quite a lot. It's not album material good, but it's a good song.
I'm not sure if True Love Waits counts as a b-side, because a studio version hasn't been recorded or released, but it's one of my favourite songs.
