Pixies Bracket: True Love Waits (7) v. Pyramid Song (10)

"True Love Waits"
I Might Be Wrong: Live Recordings
(7)

This is the best straight-laced love song that Thom Yorke has ever written. This is double edged sword: while it stands out in Radiohead's catalogue, it could be anybody's song.

VS

"Pyramid Song"
Amensiac
(10)

In both instrumentation and theme, this is Radiohead's Thelonious Monk-style track. It's smokey, urban and mysterious, like good jazz should be.
