[@juliewatson7492]

“I want you to notice when I’m not around” is such a heartbreaking line.

[@fridamarias]

I feel like "I wish I was special, you're so special" but I also think A LOT of people feel that way

[@willblood7082]

This is another song that you should absolutely listen to the unedited studio version 🔥

[@stevenmonte7397]

This is the third song she has missed out on from the original perspective. Kinda sucks. I'm getting used to it. Let's see if this can compare. As reactors, they miss out on what WE experienced when they pick the wrong versions. It leaves a disconnect.

[@dsfddsgh]

It's frustrating when reactors insist on playing the inferior live versions especially when the artist or band is way past their prime. Just stick to the studio version first to understand how the song sounded when it became popular then play a live version later if you want.

[@krisfrederick5001]

It's pretty amazing how far along Radiohead has evolved from this...At one point Thom Yorke heard it on the radio and didn't even recognize it was them! (So he said) They are incredible, I'm so excited for you to begin this journey. ❤🎵

[@mama_nez]

One of the best tracks I've ever heard from Radiohead is, How To Disappear Completely. It's absolute ART 🎨

[@markbrooks8144]

There’s a really powerful live version of this on You Tube somewhere. Possibly from Glastonbury but the angst and power in it was..... “Special.”

[@marktunks7887]

I agree! I think it was possibly Glastonbury 1994.

[@marktunks7887]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4STdIibnLWlack best live version!

[@GrumpyOldGuyPlaysGames]

The guitar jank -- the chu-chunk, chu-chunk -- that occurs before the rise into "But I'm a Creep", was improvised by Jonny Greenwood who thought the song sounded too quiet.

[@wfly81]

Conan did "Late Night" from 1993 - 2009, then quit to take over "The Tonight Show" when Jay Leno "retired". Then Jay squeezed him out to take back over. Then Conan left NBC to start "Conan" on TBS...which he did from 2010 - 2021. Now he just does a podcast and an XM Radio show, but really seems to enjoy it...and it's very successful.

[@seandobson6221]

I was in high school when this one came out. You’re actually getting an edited version of this song. It doesn’t have the same angst! There’s a live version at a music festival which really captures the song. You can hear the pain in Thom’s voice over this woman who won’t give him the time of day.

[@Roger-ny3lx]

I've heard that the girl was in the crowd and he was singing to her.

[@seandobson6221]

@@Roger-ny3lx can’t say I’ve heard that one before

[@mikebower3362]

​@Roger-ny3lx which girl was it??

[@Bubbaj5683]

Thomas wrote it about a girl in college but he couldn't talk to her due to how he felt about himself. He tried to talk to her after drinks but he couldn't bring himself to speak and she ran away. Later he sang this song at an MTV event and she was in the crowd. They made eye contact and she realized what it was about.

[@fredvelez7703]

Radiohead doesn't "like" this song. For them it's a throw away that became a hit. They play it occasionally but Thom has said, "the best thing about Creep is it bought us a bigger touring bus"! Regardless, it's a Radiohead classic, loved by millions of fans! always a smooth, chill reaction.

[@crimsonguy723]

They didn't like it because they had to play it so often probably. I'm sure they love it now, it's a masterpiece of a song and it is most obviously not a throw away for them.

[@user-ed2qn3sc6t]

Radiohead - Creep (Mimi & Josefin) | Blind Auditions | The Voice Kids 2019 ok since you've watched a few you really really need to check this out. these kids are super amazing

[@joedevlin6311]

Look up the best performance of this song. You'll see how he can belt.

[@nickgoodson9918]

Censored, which is a shame. As somebody else said, try 'Street Spirit (Fade Out)', the most beautiful song I've ever heard. Thom's a bloody legend Great reactions btw 😊

[@cgallagher4501]

Worth noting that Thom had several operations on his eye - on top of his shyness and different personality he also had a visible facial difference. You know what people are like, Im sure he had a lot of grief and selfdoubt. PS You have done two songs by them that are both about emotional trauma - maybe try a slightly more upbeat one next from them? Id suggest the From the Basement version of Optimistic or Reckoner. You wont regret sticking with them 🙂

[@aaronsutton3052]

Great reaction, Britt! You really have to see Post Modern Jukebox ft. Haley Reinhart cover of Creep. They put a jazz twist to the song that is A-mazing!

[@aaronsutton3052]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2TPd2WneqZlmdk

[@guitar_noodle]

There’s only 2 versions of Creep that I listen to that imo is the best versions. That’s Radiohead, and Post Modern Jukebox Featuring Haley Reinhert.

[@SIR-DanielHunter]

Should check out Haley Reinharts cover. Probably the best female singer besides Stevie nicks of Fleetwood Mac.

[@rcinsley]

The Haley/PostModern Jukebox restyling of "Creep" is in my lifetime (76 years) top 5 performances by female singers. Haley's of the same caliber as Stevie, Karen Carpenter, Sade, Amy Winehouse, and Angelina Jordan.

[@stevecharles4498]

Yep, she'd love Haley's version (who doesn't!)

[@SIR-DanielHunter]

@@rcinsley yes in deed I use to pick guitar with her dad and watched her grow up into the amazing songbird she is today ✌️

[@rcinsley]

@@SIR-DanielHunter What a treat that must have been! Since her mom was the singer in the family band, that means Haley was on stage before she was born!

[@dandelionfluff_]

Radiohead is at the top of my 'best concerts I've been to' list. They are amazing.

[@t0dd000]

It expresses that situation everyone has had where you are crushing on someone who wouldn't give you the time of day. Interested in someone way out of your league. Or someone who thinks you are not even close to their type.

[@ggvno167]

You must react to Postmodern Jukebox featuring Haley Reinhart cover of Creep. The arrangement is great and Haley Reinhart voice is superb one of the best singers in the business.

[@rcinsley]

Haley and PMJ are a perfect pairing. Everything PMJ did with Haley is wonderful...but their reinvention of "Creep" is a show stopper.

[@karencoulson4685]

I seldom think covers are better than the original but Haley & Postmodern Jukebox's cover is my absolute favourite version of this song (and I'm not a huge fan of jazz either but love their version). Haley is an awesome singer.

[@Mateoboardin]

yes post modern jukebox yes i got to see them live Amazing!!!!

[@ericyoungstrom5745]

What you said about "we're all weirdos..." reminded me of this line in the movie Tombstone about normal life.... had to share. Good channel here and Radiohead is just damn good, Doc Holliday: What do you want Wyatt? Wyatt Earp: Just to live a normal life. Doc Holliday: There is no normal life, there's just life, ya live it.

[@jimjohns9051]

They hate playing creep ./ but it’s a beautiful thing. Life is the art we make

Hells yes, Radiohead!!! (Check out 'Street Spirit' by them, best song imo.)

[@wpawson]

I love this song, my son played this for me back in the 90's and I think of my son again when I hear it.

[@timjeansonne227]

You should check out Incubus.. Just A Phase, Warning, Nowhere Fast, Drive, I Wish You Were Here... all amazing songs.

[@jeffreyharvey9919]

The TBS show was Conan's third show. He started out on Late Night on NBC in mid '90s, then had the Tonight Show for a few months in the 2000s before moving to TBS. I read he has something with HBO in the works now but I'm not sure what's happening with it.

[@lk-music]

I watched Conan on NBC in Germany in 1996 whilst I was studying there, NBC and MTV Europe were the only English-speaking TV channels 🤣

Whats a trip Britt? I was the creep to my wife in 1989. The shy undersving cool guy to many but not your many. Love you Angie.

[@aliecua1994]

One thing about Radiohead and this song is that Thom likes to play around with the song and kind of spoof it cuz they don’t like to play the song. I’d recommend listening to their studio version or the live version on KZbin, the first option “best live performance”.

[@AB-sy5hb]

The studio version is on another level

[@richardhargrave6082]

Its a great song, unique Its not a declaration, we're all weird, only if we are ourselves

[@ghefley]

That was brilliant ... something about the melody sounds 'important'... that's brilliance. Significant is a good word too for something or some experience that gives you frisson -- offered as someone enjoying the benefits of time, leisure and a thick thesaurus (one so thick it has a synonym for Thesaurus). Culturally significant... maybe

[@user-gi3vd7ju8d]

The reason the melody sounds so potent is that Radiohead utilize the old Beatles songwriting trick of resolving a chord from major to minor. In this song in particular, it changes from C Major to C minor.

[@stiofanmac]

prince roger nelson did his version of ''creep'' at coachella 2008 and it was so good that radiohead made sure it was available on YT at all costs - this is when none of prince's videos were on YT because of the battle he had with sony over the rights to his music - girl i can not believe you don't have more prince on this channel - he is only THE greatest artist ever to step on to a stage - played 27 instruments wrote produced sung everything on his own - dressed like a lady and would still walk out the club with your girl - there will never be another like him - PS prince made/chnged this song by doing one simple thing - he changed the ''i'' as in ''i dont belong here'' to ''you' you dont belong here'' --- from i to you turns this song on its head - prince

[@valsobrevilla6157]

Great review. If you're interested, check out the cover version by Paulina Villareal, the drummer from The Warning.

[@cmcculloch1]

Ok so when Thom wrote this it was about a gir who was a regular at a local pub he was visually infatuated with and his own insecurities. Johnny Greenwood (guitarist) chugs before the chorus were actually done in protest against how soppy the song was . The label wanted a ballady song and Thom would say this was their 'Johnny Walker' song and the label thought they were doing a cover. Thom later said he regretted admitting that the song was actually written about someone as he was pestered about her identity in interviews and people trying to work out who she was.

[@rick_zanx]

This is just the begining, prepare yourself for an amazing journey. Radiohead is top class.

[@Rcook170]

You need to hear the studio version of this as well

[@Totesmcgotes01]

I don’t think people realize that the label wanted them to write a ballad, and to stick the middle finger to their label they wrote this song… however… it backfired on them and the label loved it, cut the record and it becomes one of their most popular songs. But you can really tell in this performance of the song just how much they don’t like this song.😂 rewatch it through that lens… pretty crazy

[@weldonbailey1005]

Thank u for getting to this one. One of my all time favs. For ur own personal enjoyment search Radiohead Creep Best Live Version to get exactly that. U will add it to ur playlist. It is epic. Nice reaction. Ty. Hugs. Mark

The live performances on this really run the gamut - fantastic song, worth hearing a few different performances of to find a favorite (and the studio version is amazing).

You definitely need to check out "Karma Police" next. That's my fave song by Radiohead. ✌🏻❤️

[@dan.j.boydzkreationz]

Maynard of Tool in "the Grudge", tried so hard to extend a scream that he vomited afterwards. He was trying for 29½ seconds, representing that many years as the orbit of Saturn, but topped out around 26 seconds. It's mental.

[@sammercer9617]

Thom yorke can sing. You should give their song "nude" a listen! I think he hammed up his performance here because of the way conan introduced them

[@legslark]

Now that you have gotten around to Radiohead”s Creep, reacting to Post Modern Jukebox”s cover of Creep, featuring Haley Reinhart is a must. I have been waiting for you to find this band and singer for a long time. You won’t be disappointed!

[@notmyname4261]

Weird fishes next please. From the basement is best.

[@seandobson6221]

The line in the original is. “I wish I were special, you’re so effing special.” It doesn’t have the impact with the edited line.

[@madmerk1sun]

Imagine singing this song on stage......

[@gablen23]

The lyrics originally read "You're so fucking special", and it is much more expressive.

[@johnsmathers190]

The lead singer had a crush on a girl in college. He wrote the song about her. I heard the girl was actually at one of their concerts and when he saw her he almost freaked out. I don't know if she even realized the song was about her.

[@msmilder25]

Need to check out some Muse, whose sound reminds me a lot of Radiohead

[@arnoldcox9128]

Oh he has real vocals

[@davidskold8140]

I can't head this without thinking about Patrice O'Neal.

[@AnotherAgnostic]

My favorite karaoke song

[@TheMadJestyr]

The song is about a toxic relationship. She keeps running out on him but his self esteem is so low he can't see her as anything but an angel.

[@TonyM1961]

That's the whole point of the song. She's so beautiful and special while he feels like the outcast weirdo. He's so lonely and filled with self-loathing. Yes, I said it. The people around him have kicked him down that far. He feels like he's totally beneath her notice

[@wfly81]

I don't think it was meant to be either an anthem or a means of self-loathing. I think it was just very young, very awkward people expressing their self-consciousness just because they felt the need. I agree that it has become a bit of an anthem for the social misfits and outcasts of the world today. But at the time, I think the meaning was simply "I wish I wasn't this way." But good news. If you watch interviews with the lead singer today (Thom Yorke...pronounce "Tom"), he's much older, much more confident in who he is, and can be very charming and funny. Still very soft-spoken in his demeanor, but a lot more fully realized as a person.

[@jameshannagan4256]

He is actually an amazing singer listen to Nude or Recloner from the basement if you want a chuckle listen to Thom sing Reckoner live from the basement then Ceelo Greens cover no comparison.

[@lindascott6902]

I think this is simple confession of painful self-doubt. He clearly worships a woman that to him is beautiful, and so special that the sight of her skin makes him cry. And he feels he is so not worthy of her attention - he doesn’t want to be a creep or a weirdo, he wants a perfect body and a perfect soul 😢

[@scottbenda9931]

PMJ-Haley Reinhart...BEST EVER❤👍👍🖖💞

[@zebjohnson5580]

He actually didn't want to record this song the producers insisted it became their biggest hit

[@Logan-ed4pu]

The hilarious part is that guitarist Johnny Greenwood was NOT into this song, and the pre-chorus string raking and hammering down on the strings so hard in the chorus were actually attempts to sabotage the song. Instead of having the desired affect, he accidentally made the song better lol.

[@carlosvaladez2186]

Another fire 🔥 reaction

[@kimzwolinski9919]

This sounds so off to me. The Studio is better I think. I’m not a big fan but I do really like this song.

[@bobbyquinting3918]

When I was 27, I had a 23 year old male friend who had to sing this song at every karaoke bar that we went to. He was a fun friend, but he scared the crap out of me! This song is about self loathing. I don't hate me! Everyone else does! -So why waste my energy?

[@douglasfrazier2856]

[@richardbremner1284]

I don't think they thought it would be as big as it was from what I've heard, Thom wrote it as a young guy about a girl he liked in collage but he was awkward as a young guy n all like many of us are and don't think they knew how big a song it would be and actually hated playing the song after it took off

[@matthewdooley7855]

This song is about how most people feel in high school, and it captures that feeling SO well. Today, you could sing the same lyrics, but come from the perspective of a young woman scrolling through Instagram. I feel like the thing about rock musics not tipping off their real vocal ability sort of mirrors great impressionist artists. Before they took up impressionism, they were excellent painters in the traditional style, but moved on to a totally different challenge.

[@martinmorris5997]

This was their first album…so very unknown. With that in mind this song is personal to the writer, and wouldn’t have known that it would have become massive. Some songs capture imagination, as this song has done, and has become an anthem to all who feel that they don’t fit in to the world around them.

[@lll9416]

I always thought this song was about self loathing. About being with the woman that he felt was out of his league. When you become a musician and a rock star all these beautiful woman come out of the wood work and not all men are prepared to handle that..

[@lk-music]

I don't think Radiohead have any material written with the audience's response or interpretation in mind, because… Thom Yorke, the lead singer. He does all the lyrical content and therefore decides the subject matter for the whole catalogue, it's all personal to him and he never gives the impression that his songwriting considers his audience's opinions or experiences. Luckily for him (and us) he is surrounded by top-quality musicianship to arrange and execute his abstract notions to complement his work and turn it into something bigger. All band members are multi-instrumentalists, and all except Colin (bass) have their own solo albums or film scores.

[@dustinreynolds6008]

This was my personal anthem as a teen. I thought I was a creep. Turns out I was right and thats ok.

[@jonhoge153]

Not 100% sure but ive heard he wrote this about a girl he had a crush on but wasnt confident enough to approach even though hed see her in the crowd at his shows. Something along those lines at least

[@TonyM1961]

I always thought that this was more about "unrequited young love". He is deeply smitten by one of those "beautiful, popular girls", but he's not part of that crowd so to her, he's just a creep and a weirdo (you know, all those sharp, deep cutting names that teens are SO good at using to demean the outcasts? Kids are cruel, very cruel and he's just cut to the bone by how much it hurts). THAT'S how it always came across to me, but that's probably because I know exactly how that feels to be treated like that by the one person in the world who you want to even notice you... maybe even actually smile at you, even once. That was a long, LONG time ago now, but the memory still hurts at times. If you have children, PLEASE teach them to be decent humans. Just because someone isn't in your social group doesn't mean you automatically have to be mean and rude to them. I'm not saying they should not hang with who they want, but that doesn't mean they have to be cruel to others in the process. Know what I mean?
