The last few minutes of Radiohead's "Paranoid Android" when shit goes ballistic and Johnny Greenwood bends space and time via effects pedals that I still can't comprehend.

Louie was a great show, but I'm happy to declare Master of None as New Louie. Thanks Aziz, we need this.
I remember one of those VH1 "I love the 90s" shows featuring Scott Ian of Anthrax talking on MMMBop. What he said stuck with me, which was "You know what? Hanson were awesome. Those were three young kids writing their own songs, playing their own instruments and singing. I respect that."
I respectfully request that you acknowledge my ice cream pun and keep your rational argument out of this.
What's frustrating to me is that if you wanted to name an ice cream shop after Don Eladio, you could've called it Don Helado. IT WAS RIGHT THERE TEED UP FOR YOU, BCS writers!
Everybody dies frustrated and sad and that is beautiful.
This song is a profound existential reckoning. I have now seen Satan.
"I’m more confused than ever by the purpose and value of the “Adam and Jessa make a movie” storyline." It was to show Adam thinking about Hannah and their relationship in a nostalgic manner, so that it wouldn't be totally out of the blue when he wants to get back together with her this week.
Now that we live in Trump's America and everything is shit, I fully expect HBO to create a Marnie and Desi spinoff and give it five seasons. God, the show creators must be about 1000000% more in love with these characters than any viewer of the program.
Even one of the McPoyles is a major star now!
You might remember her from playing such moms as the mom on Freaks and Geeks.
I don't get it. I've been a rabid fan for so long, and he's been gone for so long, but I'm STILL occasionally running across unreleased songs of his I've never heard before.
Man played a mean slide guitar too.
Those are all amazing songs. Ever heard the instrumental track See You in Heaven? The guy's unreleased catalog is better than the official released canon of most famous artists.
How about best unreleased song/b-side? Feels like that deserves its own category.
Angel in the Snow is on New Moon. That is a perfect fucking pop song. It's been on several soundtracks because it's so wonderfully evocative of the innocence at early stage love, not unlike "Thirteen" by Big Star. And he never even released this song! He had so many songs, he could just set it aside and go on…
The final stanza of that song is a terrifying mindfuck - a not-yet-dead man singing "don't let me be carried away" to the doctors and nurses that would try to revive him. Meanwhile, it's a beautiful and complexly arranged song. I find it hard to listen to it, it's so amazing and frightening.
"Happiness" may not be his most technically stunning song, but to me it captured the meaning of his work. It's always been a special one.
Saw him at Numbers in Houston on the Figure 8 tour. There were already signs of cracks in the exterior - a song or two muffed and started over.
All I could figure is that it must be some sort of Hannah joke that didn't entirely make sense. I had to rewind and play that scene again.
