"Reckoner" is a song by the English rock band Radiohead, released on their seventh album, In Rainbows (20071). It was produced by Nigel Godrich and developed while Radiohead were working on another song, "Feeling Pulled Apart by Horses". The singer, Thom Yorke, described it as the centre of In Rainbows. Remixes were released by James Holden, Flying Lotus and Diplo. Radiohead also released the stems for fans to remix, as they had for the previous In Rainbows single, "Nude". Boosted by sales of the stems, "Reckoner" reached number 74 on the UK singles chart. In 2011, NME named it one of the greatest songs of the preceding 15 years, and Pitchfork named it one of the greatest songs of the decade.

Radiohead wrote a coda that developed into the final song, but kept the title. Radiohead were excited about "Reckoner" and finished it quickly after recording a demo. The producer, Nigel Godrich, recalled of the recording sessions: "People [were] all over the house, shaking things and getting this groove going, then chopping it up into little pieces and putting it back together. It was a lot of fun." ==Charts== ==Certifications== ==References==
