Radiohead - Creep | Singer Reacts & Musician Analysis

[@erickwestberg1108]

Muse sounds like Radiohead lol

[@lesterarmon8281]

The world upside down 😄. She must reacts more Radiohead, she will love them

[@jasont4783]

Thank you !! 😂😂

[@reedrothchild7966]

I bit my lip when she kept saying that 😂 Not her fault . The explosion of bands that got record deals copying Radiohead should have had to pay them royalties

[@unpopularperson8522]

Coldplay+muse = Radiohead

[@johnnyhock]

1992…….. when Muse were still in junior school

[@alekhidell]

The angry drop of the electric guitar is one of the hardest and heaviest ever.

[@Marcel----]

I wouldn't say heaviest definitely heavy but I'd say the most intense and passionate drop

[@johnjohn37371]

I have pulled over while driving for two songs in my lifetime, because of the astonishment of how different they were to anything playing on the radio back then. I heard them both right when they came out and both times I pulled the truck and landscaping trailer over...the first was "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and the other was "Creep". They both drastically affected what was considered popular music in the early nineties...

[@c.a.b.j5585]

Las dos mejores canciones de los 90s. Y una de las Mejores de la Historia.

[@Music-tg5is]

Correction: Radiohead have never sounded like Muse. Muse however, very deliberately tried to sound like early Radiohead. However since then, Radiohead went on to progress their sound and creativity to levels, which the likes of Muse could never even hope to get close to imitating.

[@Josh-dy4lq]

Sounds like she struck a nerve lol, she didn’t know nerd

[@peruedi86]

Coldplay, Muse, etc owe their careers to Radiohead.

[@Music-tg5is]

@@peruedi86 Muse owe Radiohead. Coldplay owe U2.

[@Music-tg5is]

@@Josh-dy4lq You sound upset ... And I'm okay about that. 😆

[@danjones5001]

As someone that grew when Radiohead and Muse both hit the spotlight, and loving each band equally at the time, that's harsh. There can be no argument that Muse definitely started out as a very Radiohead sounding band. They have long since been driving very different roads. Radiohead have always been the thinking man's rock band, while Muse are more unapologetically theatrical and simplistic. Muse may not match Radiohead in terms of their concepts and ideas, but i'd argue they are better musicians as a unit. Listen to Origin of Symmetry and tell me hand on heart that there is no creativity in there. Matt Bellamy's ability to mix genres and musical instruments is their biggest strength, using classical piano elements and synth with hard rock for example, and really in their prime they have more to owe to Queen than Radiohead. Ultimately Muse have been very creative in driving forward big sounds, and there's a reason they are often hailed by critics and audiences as the greatest live act on the planet right now. You don't get to that position without talent and some creative ability. Have you even listened to any of their albums past Showbiz? For the record, Ok Computer is my all time favourite album.

[@benabel7326]

When this came out Muse would have been 10 or something.

[@soraite9775]

If i remember correctly Thom Yorke at one point challenged every musician/band to cover the song 'creep', make it their own version, and afaik he never revoked that and anyone can freely cover that song until this day.

[@geraldherrmann787]

someone might argue that british rockbands like radiohead and blur (and others) were the kickstarters in the late 90ies to lead rockmusic into a new big era.

[@lilywhitefi]

Got to add Oasis to that as a top 3

[@alanponikvar3921]

Creep is Radiohead before they became Radiohead.

[@reppost]

Nope... Creep is as much Radiohead as anything else they've done. Yorke decided to announce that he never loved the song so a part of the fanbase likes to pretend they don't love it either so they can feel above the fans who do. 😁

[@gerrydantone6834]

Radiohead preceded Muse by a few years. The greatest album released in the last 30 years may be Radiohead's "OK Computer," which includes masterpieces such as "Paranoid Android," and "Let Down." That album is epic and one of the greatest of all time. You should have the lyrics handy when you listen to the music. Here is the link to "Let Down": kzbin.info/www/bejne/kIfKeYOJrqp8p80&pp=ygUbcmFkaW9oZWFkIGxldCBkb3duIG9mZmljaWFs

[@ablative1732]

Well if you want to be precise, Radiohead formed 9 years before Muse but the name Radiohead came a while later.

[@cliveklg7739]

Should watch the live performance often labeled best version. The raw emotion he puts into that performance is amazing.

[@brianorzel1873]

"Fake Plastic Trees" is another good choice...

[@ioeee7563]

Especially the line "He used to do surgery for girls in the 80s, but gravity always wins." 😄I sometimes wonder, how women who used Oil of Olaz in the 80s look like today. Did it really help?

[@TechnicalHotDog]

You pretty much can't go wrong with listening to Radiohead songs, they have so many great ones

[@TheOneAndOnlyFloridaMan]

If you want a real example of Radiohead's musical capabilities, listen to their song Paranoid Android. You will be blown away.

[@josuesouza8364]

up

[@DrMcnugget1]

Can we get a moment for the guitarist..man was shredding

[@matthewgoodA1206]

Yeah, this was the early ‘90s, I think their debut single, and a big alt rock hit. Probably still their most well-known song, but they definitely went on to far more complex and imaginative work. The ‘90s also had a lot of these low self-esteem type of lyrics. So this song fit right in and then the band could grow and evolve from there.

[@feelingpaulie3943]

3:53 No. Muse sounds so much like this. Remember the timelines of music and musical influence. Jeez. Radiohead for this song was 1993, and Muse released their debut album in 1999. Interesting reaction.

[@billeaton9562]

The lead intro is the best I have ever heard and I am 70 and have heard a lot. Love this group.

[@CoolCoyote]

Look its a vibe self doubt! the enemy

[@jamesm3123]

When he was in school he was attracted to a mean girl but she made fun of him and humiliated at school. Then he wrote this song years before he formed a band, One story goes that he spotted that girl in the audience at a gig and finally got to sing it to her. But of course she didn't remember him. They say he was crying singing it to her and finally was able to let everything go. I don't know if its true but it would be nice if it was,.

[@coegj]

The drummer for the rock band The Warning, Paulina Villarreal one of the three sisters who make up the trio rock band from Mexico did a cover of Creep by Radiohead, just herself on piano. It was absolutely eerie and tragically poetic. You can find it here on KZbin, it will give you chills like everyone else who has ever seen or heard it. Like your reviews/reactions.

[@sumonjamal1653]

When Radiohead debuted in 1993 w/ the album 'Pablo honey'... they were viewed as the British version of Nirvana. The genre of grunge rock and alternative rock was in full swing, so Radiohead fit in the scene like a glove... 'Creep' became the anthem of the year (Ironically, the US band Stone Temple Pilots also released the album 'Core' in 1992 and had a huge single called 'Creep' 😁) Muse was formed years after Radiohead and debuted in 1999, after Radiohead were already huge and had 3 albums in their catalog... More than likely, Muse was influenced by Radiohead. Radiohead wanted a more diverse musical direction in 1995 w/ the 2nd album 'The Bends'... but fans who wanted "Creep part 2" were disappointed and it sold less at the time. Frustrated by the fame that 'Creep' had given them, Radiohead made a huge gamble in 1997 w/ the 3rd album 'OK Computer'... it was more electronic music-based w/ beats and samples, and sounded nothing like 'Pablo honey'... It shocked the world by slowly outselling their debut album (2x platinum in the US) and making Radiohead an iconic band w/ an iconic album. Rather than re-make "OK Computer"... Radiohead released "Kid A" in 2000 and "Amnesiac" in 2001 and both albums were huge successes worldwide... followed by 'Hail to the thief' (2003)... Radiohead had kept up their creative and commercial successes in the last 2 decades w/ the albums - "In Rainbows" (2007)... 'The king of limbs' (2011) and 'A Moon-shaped Pool' (2016)... Radiohead is: Thom Yorke (vocals/ guitar/ keys), Jonny Greenwood (guitar/ keys), Colin Greenwood (bass), Ed O'Brien (guitar) and Phil Selway (drums)... The band appeared as their animated selves in a 'South Park' episode in 2001 called "Scott Tenorman must die" 🤣

[@paulleach3612]

There are only two types of people on this planet. Those that have heard Creep by Radiohead and those that need to.

[@montist1]

Radiohead was the first Indi band that cracked into pop culture after Sonic Youth. Thom Yorke was on the cover of every magazine

[@Codex7777]

Not in the UK. Indie rock had been in the charts for 2 decades before Creep, and Sonic Youth didn't touch the charts in Europe, at all. In contrast indie bands, such as the Cure, Depeche Mode and the Smiths had been having major chart success throughout the 80s. Bands such as the Sex Pistols, the Specials and Madness had been doing the same in the 70s. The term 'indie', originated in the UK too. There used to be a chart exclusively for acts on small independent labels. This became known as the 'indie chart'. As most of the artists on the chart made rock music, of various kinds, the term 'indie rock' became a thing. Eventually just becoming 'indie'. Nowadays the term is largely redundant, though I still hear people applying it to any music that's considered to be even slightly outside the mainstream. Even to acts that are incredibly corporate and mainstream. It's a similar story with punk. Nowadays it appears to be applied to rock act that's seen as even the tiniest bit 'edgy' and that isn't metal. Even acts like Green Day are described as 'punk', which is laughable. I like some of their stuff but they're not punk. :)

[@uris77]

Muse sounds like Radiohead. Radiohead came before Muse.

[@DanABA]

Radiohead has so many good songs.

[@gary_payton]

I forget that kids these days may have missed out completely on Radiohead. Or the fact that OK Computer is arguably one of the greatest albums of all time and MUST listen to, much like Sgt Peppers or Dark Side of the Moon if your going to have any street cred as a musician. Millie, Radiohead is a deep well to dip into. Enjoy your exploration.

[@lonoces]

What is Muse?

[@G-gh7us]

It's a band ig bro

[@garywilliams9262]

Another great reaction, seen them live, brilliant group

[@K8319M]

you got me bopping along with you much fun!

[@ejf8350]

First time I heard Muse back in the day, I thought it was a new Radiohead tune.

[@colemandias3212]

Gonna get a lot of Paranoid Android requests. Its great. But I like their In Rainbows album! Reckoner, House of Cards, Jigsaw Falling into place. But keep up with their stuff! Its all great and each album has a unique sound.

[@matthewford5094]

It's their first hit, so I understand why many people start with Creep, but it's not really a great example of their music. It's like trying to understand the Beatles if you only know Love Me Do.

[@_l3m35_]

She's not wrong about Muse, after all that's the reference she has for being young. Of course Muse sounds like Radiohead and not the opposite🤣

[@jameslinham2733]

The absolute best version of this song ever (and I defy anyone to prove me wrong), is an a Capella version I saw in a club in London performed by Le Gateau Chocolat. He just has the most amazing voice. No instruments. No gimmicks. Just him in a stark white spotlight singing his heart out. The guy is a tall, powerfully built Black drag artist opera singer. The song develops a whole new depth of meaning when you know the singer has felt like an outsider his whole life.

[@rcinsley]

"Creep" is a favorite among talent show contestants, and there are several good takes on the song. The most interesting version of "Creep", however, was recorded in 2015 by PostModern Jukebox, featuring Haley Reinhart ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2TPd2WneqZlmdk ). PMJ specializes in transforming modern songs into various styles that were popular during the mid 20th century. In the case of "Creep," PMJ recreates a '40s/'50s jazz sound, with Haley's incomparable "Jessica Rabbit" vocal magic backed by a 5-piece acoustic combo! This video has more than 100 million views!

[@mytube2959]

Small fact, the bassist from Muse lookd at my 'for sale' house 2 weeks ago (May 2022), didn't buy it, tight wad 😅

[@walterfleury3840]

Saw them live in 1996. Opened for Alanis Morrissette. They played this one my ex wife and stepdaughter didn't like them but I thought they put on a great show.

[@NTXCoog12]

I'll never forget the 1st time I heard this... Beavis & Butthead

[@cooperkern4112]

i laughed out loud when she said it sounds like early muse. She picked it out immediately what muse fans refuse to admit today.

[@Bloodbound89]

i have to say there is a great cover version in my opinion, it is a cover from a random guy in a train station singing with a musician andd i think his voice sells it better :D

[@glennrowe2961]

Muse are a Radiohead tribute band… Not the other way round 😜!!

[@msmilder25]

Muse formed as a band in 1994, in the wake of this song being a huge hit, so my guess is, Radiohead was a big influence on Matt Bellamy and his bandmates.

[@quantum1540]

Esa canción me suicida el corazón de manera figurada. Wow!

[@elainey7223]

Muse didn't form until later, in 1994. I have read in various interviews with Muse that Radiohead were one of Muse's major influences

[@wendyhartwell49]

Yes, Radiohead out well before Muse

[@HT-io1eg]

It’s weird. Everyone in the entire galaxy knows this song. Every note is as familiar as our own faces. Yet, enough time has passed such that it’s unknown. Bizarre. This was everywhere, like blue sky, like air to breathe. But now is underground and needs to be dug up. So strange

[@ferruscx]

Muse influence by Radiohead. Radiohead formed 1985

[@simply_psi]

This is an epic song but songs from their incredible album OK Computer are even better, like Karma Police, No Surprises, Paranoid Android and Lucky are all worth checking out next as is The Tourist and well the whole album

[@ModernArtery]

It would be awesome if you checked out more Radiohead. Creep is good and was their first big hit (maybe still their biggest hit) but the rest of their work is far beyond it in my opinion (and I think most fans would agree). Paranoid Android is a great one as many people have said. Everything off OK Computer is excellent really, but I'd particularly recommend No Surprises, Let Down, Exit Music (For a Film), and Lucky. I also really like their album Kid A which has songs like Optimistic, How to Disappear Completely, and Idioteque. Then their album Hail to the Thief, which is a little bit less celebrated, but has some great songs like "Sit Down. Stand Up"., Scatterbrain, Where I End and You Begin, and Myxomatosis. There's lots more besides that, I'm a big fan of theirs but even I don't even know half their songs. There's so, so much good stuff going on in their songs, they are really one of music's greatest and most legendary bands. Entonces, muchas gracias, me gustan mucho tus videos :)

[@jimatyeo]

Haley Reinhart does an incredible job with this song as well

[@marlew6629]

Please don't ever put Radiohead in the same sentence as Muse. Radiohead are on another level.

Proper music xxx

[@rodb9275]

I've watched a couple of your vids, and I enjoy you. HOWEVER (and I doubt I'm alone), I'd much rather you pause than talk over the song. Seriously, you miss subleties that I hate you missing, when you are thinking about what you are saying, and not fully listening. Just some constructive criticism. (Plus, we can't easily hear what you are saying, when you are talking over it) I am NOT anti pause at all. I like pauses to hear thoughts. One other thing, would be that when you DO pause, go back at least 5 seconds after the pause. It helps get back in to the flow. I only say this because I personally enjoy seeing my reactor really absorb the song as they are reacting.

[@danielbritton8588]

I love your outfit.

[@FrengerousHq]

Nice song, The LimeSublimes 💕

[@lk-music]

Early Muse sounded more like The Rasmus than Radiohead, but perhaps some of their later stuff maybe, oh, vocally... hmm, suppose a little bit similar.

[@gusfernanddes]

actually the first muse record sounds a lot like the early radiohead albuns

[@patrickholt2270]

Muse came after Radiohead, although the way they tell it, Muse's sound developed independently out of the brothers' own early ideas to combine aspects of screamo with prog and classical ideas, to do hardcore punk with brains and melody.

[@DenCon143]

You missed the lyrics, sweetheart. I'm not one who pays much attention to songs, but in this case these words hit deep and so very true for many of us.

[@kevingood4644]

If you want to hear a voice that moves you try Angelina Jordan Bohemian Rhapsody ..aged 13..she’ll make you cry time and time again…

[@bryanbrady877]

So you haven't heard Postmodern Jukebox do this song with Haley Reinhart. Go listen to that right now. It's dripping greasy. You will frickin...Well just give it a listen. You have to see for yourself how she barely moves and yet totally smokes any lesser being. She owns sh1t without even trying. It's painfully good. On every level.

Still funny that alsmost 30 years later, Tom Yorke still abolutely hates this song, even though it made them famous.

[@androidmichaelremy3904]

many people like MUSE because Radiohead changed of style of music. yep, Muse is good transition from Radiohead first epoq.

[@iqbalmuhammad2920]

Radiohead fanboys triggered by the Muse comparison. Of course, Muse is younger & started slightly later, but yeah. Muse *IS* bigger than Radiohead now. They are all different now, more than an apple to an orange. Muse just finished their latest album tour, while Radiohead remains a thing of the past (stuck in the 90s).
