Apparently, a whole lot of Channel 4 viewers were surprised by OK Computer‘s “best album of all time” ranking. Amazon notes that OKC jumped hundreds of places to land at #14 on the top-selling albums list immediately following the program.
So if you don’t see your neighbor for a few days, and when you finally do, his eyes are all glazed over and he’s talking about having “seen the light”, pat him on the back, smile, and remember when OK Computer blew your mind for the first time. Lucky duckies, these newbies.
