An adjective that I'd use to describe this would be beautiful. Song is really amazing, probably among my top ten Radiohead songs of all-time. Video was out during the time that "I Might Be Wrong" was released in the US. (IMHO, easily the two greatest songs on Amnesiac which I otherwise wasn't a big fan of). The video is a classic as well.

I agree about this song's beauty. The ethereal strings, the starkness of the piano contrasting against Thom's voice, the drums right as they come in (amazing, tasteful production on those, too), the low moaning strings at the end of the song, the end with that looping keyboard(?) noise...
Believe it or not, VH1, (who never showed this in 2001 -- and MTV only showed it during a half hour program of new videos it repeated regularly one month) of all channels, likes to throw this video on during the middles of the hours of its "Nocturnal State" programming from time to time: I've seen it three times since August. (I've also seen "Knives Out" and other random, 5-10 year old videos from U2, RHCP, et al.) during this time slot, too.

Amnesiac is really the one album of Radiohead's that I just don't like. But I agree that Pyramid Song is one of their best songs. This is one of those albums where the singles were great and everything else pretty much sucked.

Speaking of Radiohead on VH1, I just saw "High and Dry" late Monday night, which is interesting, because the Taste of Chaos tour that night played it over the PA, along with "Karma Police" two songs earlier, before the main stage bands started, rendering downtime music obsolete.
Personally, it's really hard for me to pick favorites among The Bends, OK Computer, Kid A, and yes, Amnesiac.
