Morning Bell: Kid A or Amnesiac?

Radiohead's Morning Bell. Which do you prefer, Kid A or Amnesiac version?

I prefer Amnesiac. It has a haunting quality to it.

Kid A, no doubt about it.

No offense, but Amnesiac always sounded (to me) like a batch of Kid A outtakes.

Kid A

yeah, i think they refined it a bit on Amnesiac. although both albums are basically a double CD to me...

where is doctashock when you need him? oh right...busy!

kid a

amnesiac was a waste of time

it was just a collection of b-sides.....

i was really disapointed when i heard it

Kid A, though Amnesiac has it's high points

Kid A

The Amnesiac version is the worst track on the record

Kid A

one of the only radiohead songs i skip..on both records..doesnt do anything for me

agreed. Kid A all the way. gotta love jonny's lil' guitar ditty in the middle

amnesiac... probably just cause I heard it first. you people who think it's the worst track on the record are fools.

Kid A. That beat kicks fucking ass.

Hmmm.....

kid A, all the way.

speaking of Kid A has anyone ever heard that song live, it's fantastic



theres a pretty good live gig with Kid A from 23-04-04 - sydney, australiahere

Amnesiac - and it's a better album all round

Personally, I think both albums have their merits, and they sound nothing like eachother. Pyramid Song, You And Whose Army, Knives Out, I Might Be Wrong, and Morning Bell are all superb tracks. You And Whose Army is by far the best track on that album.

I'm gonna go with door number 3 on this one, and say the version on the "I Might Be Wrong: Live Recordings" disc.

Like the song or not, its presence on all three albums gives you a proper perspective on how powerful the music is both as a whole and individually as songs. As much praise as Radiohead got for Kid A, it also recieved quite a bit of "...but could they pull it off live?" style critism. I like to think that song proves their point on that matter.

you guys are plain "crazy".
b-sides, a-sides, down-sides, left-sides.

There is no question here...Amnesiac. Period.

i'm probably going to go with kid A on this one.

and that is why i like amnesiac.

I like them both for different reasons. I also think that in the context of both albums it is a fitting song.

i'd have to go with the amnesiac version
but i ♥ both albums

Amnesiac.

Kid A -- even though I probably listened to Amnesiac a lot more.
