This is the scariest song made. Period.

And best song, IMO.

Street Spirit

Yorke talking about it: I can't believe we have fans that can deal emotionally with that song. That's why I'm convinced that they don't know what it's about. It's why we play it towards the end of our sets. It drains me, and it shakes me, and hurts like hell every time I play it, looking out at thousands of people cheering and smiling, oblivious to the tragedy of its meaning, like when you're going to have your dog put down and it's wagging its tail on the way there. That's what they all look like, and it breaks my heart.

yea, I wouldn't call it the scariest...but your description of the dog wagging it's tail as you are going to put him down does describe the way the audience looked like as he sang that sad song. But, it is a very good song...it does have that depressing feel in the music though.

He says thats how he feels about the audience in general, not just that one. People always cheer for that song. He hates life, and to him people cheering for it is like dogs wagging their tail before they die. They don't understand the song, and they are blind to its meaning or whats going to happen.

@_@ Really scary stuff. Thom is a genius.

"Frankie Teardrop", by Suicide, is the scariest song ever.

Frankie was pretty awesome. Street Spirit is still alot more chilling to me though, cause you sorta know what its about but not really. Frankie tells you its story, Street Spirit hints at it.
