Sometimes you feel like a creep when the other person is so beautiful. You feel like you don't measure up.

[@JaquelineGoodspeed]

I've never met anyone that beautiful on this earth. Never.

[@munkeeBraynStoo]

​@@JaquelineGoodspeed that means you haven't met the 1 God made for you, your soul mate. As soon as you meet them, you'll understand what I'm saying

[@jean_etcetera]

​@@JaquelineGoodspeed I think it is more like one creates an image of the person in their head and at the same time puts themselves in a lower place.

[@JaquelineGoodspeed]

@monkey brain stu isn't? Oh okay I did but we don't always marry our soul mate. Sometimes we lose them here on earth so they can carry on their destiny. That's true love.

[@JaquelineGoodspeed]

@current jeans That to me is " low esteem."

[@andreasmith6528]

Back in the day, creep really meant a weirdo, someone who didn’t fit in, but it wasn’t so nefarious or scary like it is now. Great reaction. My kids were huge into Radiohead so that’s how I found out about them. Karma Police and Fake Plastic Trees are great songs, and my daughter would tell you Paranoid Android is one of the greatest songs ever.

[@nonsequiturm]

Yeah, the definition of creep has definitely been changing over the years.

[@Fishboy228]

I have to agree about Paranoid Android. and the "Rain Down" part in it, is just epic.

[@Jamesfoster48]

Please could you stop the noise, I'm tryna get some rest... 😉

[@gogi682]

a weirdo, doesn't fit in ...not liked, strange

[@mtneubelt]

you nailed it it with the analysis. it's about social anxiety and not feeling good enough but you have to understand the context of the time. in the 90s social anxiety wasn't a term. i was a teenager in the 90s and this really resonated with me because if you dont feel like the top dude you feel like a creep or weirdo or someone who just doesn't belong. Love this song, awesome react

When I hear the word "creep", the first word that comes to mind is radiohead. Lol. This song got banned in the UK because it was deemed too depressing... apparently.

[@Steven-le4bc]

I have social anxiety disorder. I so identified with this song back then until I was finally diagnosed in my early 30's, and to this day. They rock and they touched me. Love your reactions ❤.

[@Steven-le4bc]

Thanks for the 👍.

[@PriestessOfNothing]

This is the song of my people lol an anthem of my generation. You could say we were kinda quirky back then, and a lot of us felt like creeps. Today, "creep" = stalker but back then "creep" = loser. Weirdo. Outcast. Awkward. We've held that song close to our hearts for the rest of our lives. It wasn't just a song to us creeps. You really should do the live version. He wouldn't even have to sing, the audience would've done it for him. But my lord, I'm glad he did.

[@sandyleewhite]

Hello out there, to all my fellow CREEPS & WEIRDOS, we make the world a more interesting place to live!!! Bands like Radiohead, take you on an emotional journey, so you feel the music, & that's what makes them exceptional, & seriously successful! 😎 Great reaction 😎

[@scapito]

Some other songs to check out by them: High & Dry, Fake Plastic Trees, Just, Iron Lung (all are from their album The Bends). Radiohead is difficult to put in a categorical box because they evolve with each album. Enjoy your journey.

[@ceg2235]

This song has been played in so many movies and has been covered by everyone and their mother's uncle! A lot of great covers, but nothing compares the to this - the original!

[@JaquelineGoodspeed]

This song makes me very sad. To me, it's the voice of the " bullied" kids. Those screams, " the release of emotion." To this day, bullying continues, and all it requires is for parents to raise nice kids.

[@nathanclarke2777]

Love the reaction! Radiohead's Creep is just about feeling you are not worthy to be around someone you are attracted to/ love! The fact that you went from being wary to being all in is how almost all of us were at one time with them! They are not everyone's cup of tea but you can find a few songs that will always stay with you!

[@glenjohnson9128]

Appreciate how you took it in from your own perspective and how it got you to disregard preconceptions.

[@sumonjamal1653]

I think Thom Yorke of Radiohead wrote 'Creep' about himself being infatuated w/ a girl he admired from afar but couldn't approach due to his awkwardness (he felt like she thought he was a 'creep')... It became a huge single in 1993 from the debut album 'Pablo honey'... (Ironically, Stone Temple Pilots also released a single 'Creep' from their 1992 debut album 'Core') Radiohead became like the British version of Nirvana - 90's grunge rock... but that wasn't what they wanted. Other singles - 'Stop whispering'... 'Anyone can play guitar' ... did not do as well. Radiohead released their 2nd album 'The Bends' in 1995, but it sold less because fans expected 'Creep part 2'... and it didn't have a song like that. Singles were - 'High and dry'... 'Fake plastic trees'... In 1997, Radiohead opted to reinvent their sound w/ beats and electronics... That resulted in their 3rd album 'OK Computer'... and it was a surreal record w/ very odd tracks... but by 1998, fans bought the record as it outsold 'Pablo honey'... and the single 'Karma police' was a huge hit... along w/ the singles - 'Paranoid android'... 'No surprises'... Their 2000 album 'Kid A' went to #1 on the US charts as Radiohead ventured into full-on surreal electronic music.

[@DevInvest]

A gorgeously powerful song.

[@lisar3944]

The thing I always found interesting about this song was that it had almost universal appeal. As a former "outcast" I had no question about how/why I related so much to this song, but I was shocked as hell when I saw jocks and princesses and other "top tier" "special" people belting out this same song as if they got it on a personal level. Weird. I think it just hits most people on a deep level, which is amazing. "I want you to notice...when I'm not around..." I think everyone understands this, even allegedly "special" people. Damn, who is cutting onions?!

[@davidchapman2213]

Thom Yorke has one of the most beautiful voices in alternative rock. Listen to Radiohead's other music and you'll see. Fake Plastic Trees is softer and shows the beauty of his voice even more.

[@huddleitupfilms]

Social anxiety is a good way to put it. Very common when it comes to trying to approach a beautiful girl. But back then, social anxiety wasn't really a thing people recognized. It was more "man up and go talk to her". Btw- enjoy your reactions very much. If you do Nine Inch Nails again, I'd like to hear you analyze Terrible Lie.

[@JaquelineGoodspeed]

It was " life," simply just " life "

[@TheNerdshire]

He is describing how he see/feels about himself. English people are very reserved and "stiff upper lip" emotions are reserved for footie (soccer). Every Radiohead album brings different sounds. Thom(you're right silent h) Yorke is brilliant. Lyricist writes the lyrics and he has written some songs I get all the feels with only a couple lines. You can feel joy,pain grief and anger sometimes all at once. That's a gift. It's hard to do with just words. He an intelligent poet. Dive into some explanations of his songs; he's able to take complex emotions when I hear his songs think "it takes me 20 minutes to explain that situation; he does it in few lines" that ti me is brilliant. Maynard James Keenan's(TOOL,Puscifer, APerfect Circle) abilities are imo on another level; we share similar life experiences so his lyrics and ability to sing(church choir) and scream and I want to cry when I hear emotional pain...Prince does it too. Sinéad sang his song and Chris Cornell "Nothing Compares to You". Sorry I'm rambling. I watch reaction videos especially Maynard's lyrics etc when people have never heard him before.*YOU research, look at lyrics and don't have damn siren noises,special effects and try to hock merch. It's refreshing. Keep it up! Love what you're doing 🤘🏻💯

I get goosebumps literally everywhere to this part @13:26. Such an amazing track that for a lot of people is relateable.

[@jasongode6179]

The word itself was so villified. Weird or odd. This song used to always make me think of an ex. Even though its more about a desire he thinks he cannot ever deserve; so he uses 'Fn Special.' to convince himself its not even worth trying. As far as the Ex; yeah I never felt good enough ; no matter how hard I tried; but in hindsight realized she was putting me down and it waant worth all the work; just to be belittled. Love the song , even w the bad memories.

[@andimetrum]

The first thing I think of when I think of “Creep” is TBoz dancing in her silk pajamas. Fine! But yeah, then I think about what a weirdo I am.

Thom is pronounced same as Tom. They’re incredibly talented. Love Radiohead. 💛

[@colemandias3212]

Thom was born without an eyelid and had to have multiple surgeries as a child to get one skin graphed. I think that's why he felt like a creep. And I always took it as like bullies getting in your head; like you're a weirdo, what are you doing here? You don't belong here

[@shiv2033]

I think of creeper weed. But there are several definitions for creep. (Weirdo, slowly crawl, approach, there’s a weed called creep, and there could be others I’m not thinking of)

[@paranormalskeptic3893]

By the way, you might recognize this song, because vocalists use it in those reality music shows like The Voice or America’s/Britain’s Got Talent. It’s such a tough song to sing, tough to hit the notes that Yorke hits. It’s a true challenge.

[@alyssajennings3046]

Now you have to check out one of the best covers of any song I’ve ever heard, which is Post Modern Jukebox cover of Creep featuring Haley Reinhart. Haley Reinhart’s vocals, and performance of this cover is on another level!!

[@lisanelson6073]

[@Podunk82]

This reminds me of my last relationship, It was one of those relationships that you know she's outta your league but you ask her out anyway. As times goes by you realize you start loosing yourself trying to keep her and when you start to be vulnerable and emotionally attached shit goes sideways. In the end you have to just say whatever you want to do to make you happy even though it may not include me just do it.

[@davieh6]

glad you've discovered this band mate. one of the greatest rock bands of our times, and all of their albums are different. Pablo Honey, first album is great to start with, other great albums have been mentioned below. I also recommend Amnesiac, for some reason the album sounds like cold and coldness to me, its awesome.

great radiohead song, altho they have so much better in their catalogue. this song sounds basic compared to what they did later

[@meganpetty223]

I've been checking out your Rage reactions, and you got me subbed with this one. In several of your RATM reactions you ask about other bands doing political music/making music that touches on the same kinds of things that Rage did. If you listen to more Radiohead, they got increasingly more political, especially with the OK Computer album (1997) and onwards. They're not as overt as RATM, but they make their statements in more artistic way. Highly recommended, especially if you want to try something that's a little less RAWK.

[@ginafragata2947]

Yes they magnificent❤

[@robinsmithbryan1624]

Creep was how he felt when rejected.

[@elenapatrick8116]

The story behind this song is he’s a creep, he’s a weirdo, he has never fit in and people have bullied him and looked at him like he had 2 heads all his life. So the story continues about a girl in college that he had a crush on. She avoided him and when he finally got close to her, (can’t remember if it was a cafeteria or a record shop but somewhere). When she saw him approaching her she literally ran away from him. And this is what he felt because he’s never fit in. I think he dropped out because of it. So he felt like a weirdo that doesn’t fit in or have a place to belong.

[@StefanPina]

I have heard this before too, Radiohead took elements from the 1972 song "The Air That I Breathe" perfomed by the Hollies; following legal action, Albert Hammond and Mike Hazlewood are credited as cowriters. Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creep_(Radiohead_song)

[@judymeeker2925]

I understand the song well. I was the creep and weirdo all through my school life but now I am considered special by the very ones who ingored me.

it's called creep because he feels like if he hits on her he'll be seen as a creep. Not that he actually is creepy. He feels creepy for wanting to be with someone so much more amazing than he is.

Predator. It’s a great song

[@munkeeBraynStoo]

He's saying the music isn't girlie, but it's not aggressively masculine either. It's calm, cool and manly,... Smooth He's also saying she was too beautiful and he's too ugly to be with her. She's too perfect (in his sight) for him to even compare himself to her. He's out having dinner with her and feels like he doesn't belong with such an awesome lady. In truth, it's how we all should see our mate. Like nothing can compare to them. She's the 1 for you if being with her makes you long to become a better man. But, you'll feel creepy til you get there/used to it, like you don't belong with her. If she's happy with you, that should be enough to overcome your self-doubt. MMBxMOB

[@louannlang7471]

when I think of what a 'creep' is I think of a person that is socially awkward and inappropriate. When I was younger these 'creeps' would make unwarranted sexual advances.

[@JaggerG]

Some lyrics in the second verse can be construed as a jealous, manipulative abuser, taken out of context. I felt a big part of it is that the main character feels so undeserving in a culture that casts out anyone but the most accomplished and archetypal, to the point he thinks having desires and making any effort to sate them must inherently make him a sleazy fraud. Especially at the time, it had been pretty taboo especially for men to have feelings at all. They’re expected to make lots of money, first, then just pick a lady to marry and buy a house for. Culture really dehumanized everyone, just giving them assignments instead of choices. Still these days, it may finally be socially acceptable to feel sad, but don’t you dare feel angry, or shameful, or nervous.

[@ledzep570]

[@LaptopLarry330]

Radiohead’s success with this song in the US may have been caused by a misinterpretation of the lyrics. I, and other listeners thought that the start of the chorus is “But I’m a creep. I’m a MURDERER.”. A murderer stalking a woman. That is how I, and countless US listeners, interpreted the song when it first was released in the US.

[@roxee57]

Have you considered the English make use creep differently to an American?

[@fellowchucker7224]

Unfortunately, this song became a bit of a touchy subject as it was slated as a suicide anthem and linked to depression and negative thoughts.
