I know I've linked you to "Fitter Happier" before. Seriously though, Radiohead has been my default favorite band since high school. Politically/socially opinionated, creepy, smart music. I'll have to link you to some of my favorites:
- "Paranoid Android" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rF8khJ7P4Wg) (this is like the epic/legendary Radiohead song. It has three parts and is very manic lyrically) - "Lucky" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rF8khJ7P4Wg) (I consider this "my song"... "the head of state has called for me by name, but I don't have time for him/ it's gonna be a glorious day!") - "Optimistic" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJkeVkYq8Es) (another legendary song IMO, about life, the universe, and everything) - "Backdrifts (Honeymoon Is Over)" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNA6mJ7ppYk) (off their most political CD) - "Karma Police" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uYWYWPc9HU&ob=av2el) (an obligatory classic, the song that got me into Radiohead in middle school. My favorite part is the end, the "whew for a minute there, I lost myself")
Also, I think you might enjoy the video for "There There" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AQSLozK7aA&ob=av3el), and this fanmade video for "A Wolf At The Door" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvBPCm25z4I).
