OK Computer was thick with memorable tunes, and a few songs as straightforwardly beautiful as Lift slipped through the net, not least Let Down. The band considered using "Fitter Happier" as the album's opening track, but decided the effect was off-putting. OK Computer is the album that establishes Radiohead as one of the most inventive and rewarding bands of the '90s. It was nominated for Album of the Year and won Best Alternative Music Album at the 1998 Grammy Awards. Godrich preferred a quick and "hands-off" approach to mixing, and said: "I feel like I get too into it.Taylor’s Version) [From The Vault] Now That We Don’t Talk (Taylor’s Version) [From The Vault] My Love Mine All Mine “Slut!
