I saw a video for Let Down once on the internet. It was supposedly official but never released. It featured graphics similar to those in the OK Computer booklet, specifically the safety style warning signs. The images were white on a black background. That's all I can remember, except the video file I saw became corrupt near the end and stopped playing. If anyone knows anything about this and thinks its relevant, or if there is a link which could be added... go for it... if not, ignore this, i guess Gohst 09:59, 31 March 2006 (UTC)


 * This song has charted in multiple lists; I think it is notable enough to have its own article. Billboard No. 29 for 8 weeks in Alternative Songs. Tokio Hot 100: No. 21. RAM Top 50: No. 30. CMJ Commercial Alternative Cuts: No. 12. One of a Billboard editors personal favorites of the year. Dave Grohl listed it as the song of the year. Additionally, it was intended to be the first single off of OKC. Named 106 in NME's top 150 songs of the last 15 years here. Various Discogs info. Promotional single artwork one and two. - Theornamentalist (talk) 01:58, 16 June 2012 (UTC)


 * "Let Down" is driven by Byrds-like chiming guitars.

Charted but not a single?
When a song that wasn't even released as a single makes it on a chart it only means it's popular enough... why are Radiohead fans so stingy with non single articles? It only makes Radiohead look bad when pages are deleted for not being "important enough" you know? --Mrmoustache14 (talk) 04:21, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

, this version is a starting point, please give some time as I will be adding more to the article from there. Perhaps you would also like to help? QuestFour (talk) 09:52, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
 * , sorry, but I don't think there is enough material out there to justify an article for this song per WP:NSONGS. Popcornfud (talk) 09:55, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I've restored the article per WP:BRD and WP:ATD-R. I'm not yet sure how I'd !vote in an AFD, but I see a strong enough case for notability that I do think that's where this determination should be made. WP:NSONGS notes charting as one potential indicator of notability, and this song did chart. The fact that it's been covered by other artists also tends toward notability. Whatever the answer, a well-written, referenced article is entitled to an AFD before deletion by redirection, IMO. -- Tamzin (she/they, no pref.) &#124; o toki tawa mi. 10:18, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
