Title: Hauntingly Beautiful
Product review: Having seen the band twice on the summer 06 tour, I was struck by how moving the Amnesiac songs were live. While OK Computer's emotionally charged 21st-century ballads and Kid A's movement into electronica each makes an effect in their respective ways, the Amnesiac songs had a hushed and muted but remarkably intense emotional impact.It caused me to re-engage with this album in a way I'd not done previously."Pyramid Song" is a perfect example - haunting, metaphysical, beautifully lyrical and at the same time somewhat bleak. Hearing the chords of this song alone, with its near jazz-like arrangement, evokes our time and place in way few songs of any genre do.If you have put this one away I would dust it off and bring it out again. It's one that will live with you for a long time.
