Song of the Day: Karma Police

Karma Police by Radiohead. Just want to start off by saying that until I got a vehicle with Sirius Radio, I absolutely never would’ve been able to guess the name of this song. I for sure had heard it before but I could’ve heard it a 100 times and never would’ve been able to guess he said Karma Police, granted now that I know it’s clear as day. Karma Police was released on Radiohead’s OK Computer album in May of 1997. Karma Police went to number 8 on the UK charts, the country Radiohead is from, and made it to 14 on the US alternative charts. The album, OK Computer, was an even bigger hit, and you could say against all the odds. The album was all experimental music from the band and the record company itself estimated low sales as they considered the album uncommercial and difficult to market. Well they missed the mark on that estimate as the album sold over 7 million copies and made it to #1 in the UK.
