Different covers

Strange. My copy is a blue-cover, but has all of the songs mentioned here, including Punchdrunk, Trickster, acoustic Creep and Iron Lung... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.7.176.133 (talk) 01:20, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

That's the normal way, as the page implies. In England it was two versions of a single and in the US it was one big EP. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.218.93.163 (talk) 20:40, 27 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

"You Never Wash Up After Yourself"

That's blatantly not Acoustic Guitar. Anyone care to identify exactly what guitar it is? 81.109.149.49 02:38, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have see a photo of Thom recording this in the white chocolate farm, the picture is blured to effect and it is an electric guitar. Also it is black. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.72.105.126 (talk) 20:25, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Split

I feel an article should be made for the song, and not just the EP. As it stands, My Iron Lung is the only Radiohead single without an article. Zazaban (talk) 01:07, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with this split - there were several different single releases besides the EP which need to be covered somewhere too. --Zilog Jones (talk) 21:59, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed as well. It's much easier just to split the two. TheTwoRoads (talk) 19:33, 30 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, this song is totally worthy of its own page. great song - Omar Franklin —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.26.81.77 (talk) 10:39, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This was one of their most popular songs, someone should make a separate article for the song with inormation about the single and what album it's from and stuff.Iminrainbows (talk) 22:36, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The release date was earlier for the UK single (or at least one version of it) - it was in the UK Singles Chart before the release date mentioned here. Peter James (talk) 17:39, 14 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Nigel Godrich's role confused

"The title track more famously appeared later on the band's 1995 album, The Bends. The EP also contains outtakes from then-ongoing recording sessions for The Bends"

"Nigel Godrich first worked with Radiohead on this recording, going on to engineer The Bends"

If all the tracks on this EP are either from The Bends, or from the same recording sessions, then how can Nigel Godrich have "first worked with Radiohead on this recording" and then _gone_ _on_ to engineer The Bends, when the two are from the same period?

Genre

Removing "heavy metal" from the genre section unless it can be sourced.76.118.164.157 (talk) 01:12, 11 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Different release versions

I was surprised in reading this article to see no mention of the version that was released originally in Canada and the US. My CD copy has a blue tint cover, it identifies this as an EP on the cover, and includes just 5 songs - "My Iron Lung", "The Trickster", "Lewis (Mistreated)", "Permanent Daylight", and "You Never Wash Up After Yourself". It's not the double single (which is a 7 song version) and not what is described as "the EP release" (suggesting there is only one version of the EP). This version was released in North America in 1994. I see lots of articles for albums that show track listings for various different versions of the release and wonder if this might be a helpful addition here. 134.41.91.158 (talk) 13:02, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
