- “Lift” was released a decade after it was recorded.
- “Jigsaw Falling Into Place” channels the tension of a night out.

## Summary

The article ranks five Radiohead songs as the band’s most creative, well-produced and dark, arguing that their work extends far beyond the hit “Creep”. It presents the selections as examples of how the Oxford band has continually changed its sound while remaining together with its original five members.

The supplied text discusses “Lift”, recorded in 1997 but left off *OK Computer* until its 2017 reissue, and “Jigsaw Falling Into Place”, released on *In Rainbows* in 2007. It describes “Lift” as a reflective, guitar-led song about the pressures of fame, while “Jigsaw” captures the restless excitement and unease of a night out. The article’s excerpt ends during its discussion of “High and Dry”, so it does not provide the full ranking.
