2+2=5 - Hail to the Thief / Radiohead
Girls and Boys - Parklife / Blur
Disorder - Unknown Pleasures / Joy Division

It's not that they're particularly fantastic songs or anything, I just feel they set off each respective album very well.

This is a great song. Also love Subsequence from the same album.



I used to write rock critics in my school's newspaper, and I wrote a paper about Idiology, saying it was one of the smartest records ever etc. I am pretty sure noone from my school listened to it, though.
