"Nude" outperformed the previous "In Rainbows" single, "Jigsaw Falling into Place", reaching number 21 on the UK Singles Chart; it remains their last UK top 40 single. It reached number 37 on the "Billboard" Hot 100, making it Radiohead's second top 40 hit after "Creep" reached number 34 in 1993. It was also the first Radiohead song to make the Pop 100. Sales included sales of the remix stems, boosting its chart performance. In 2020, the "Guardian" named it the seventh greatest Radiohead song, writing: "After kicking around in Radiohead lore for more than a decade, 'Nude' ... found stunning form, first by channelling Björk – choppy coos, weeping strings – and then in a finale as bright and penetrating as dawn."
