Let Down (Radiohead song)

"Let Down" is a song by the English rock band Radiohead, from their third studio album, OK Computer (1997).

It was released as a promotional single in September 1997, and reached number 29 on the US Modern Rock Tracks chart.

[1] "Let Down" was intended to be the first single from OK Computer, but "Paranoid Android" was chosen instead, which, along with "Karma Police", solidified Radiohead's popularity.

[5] The multi-track recording used in the studio version makes the song difficult to recreate live, especially with respect to the layering of multiple simultaneous vocal parts sung by Yorke.

When it has been played live, Yorke has typically opted to skip the final verse and sing the accompanying background vocal part instead.
