THE MANY INCARNATIONS OF THE RECKONER

The OG OG version, one of the most rocking songs Radiohead has in its canon, just has this incredible guitar riff. It also had the lyric in the title “...feeling pulled apart by horses.”



The version that came to be the official version released on In Rainbows was more subdued and featured a falsetto lilt with a more R&B backdrop.



The newly reworked version of “Feeling Pulled Apart By Horses” by Thom Yorke with the assist by bandmate Johnny Greenwood. The overall feel is more brooding than either of the other versions.



Which version do you like better?

I still like the original version (not the OG OG one at the top of this post). The intro of the kinky guitar groove, shadowed by the combined lilting drum beat, tambourine, and "lemon" shaker(?) sounds pretty damn cool to me.

I like all 3 personally. That guitar riff is pretty powerful in the OG OG. I wouldn't be mad at them at all if they recycled it on another song.
