I've always wondered what it would feel as an artist to be expected to play that one song for years or decades

A major reason "Creep" became massive is that it had the same soft verses, loud chorus pattern that makes up Nirvana's output. They probably didn't intend to write yet-another-Grunge song, but that was the sound of 1993.

Cobain hated Smells like teen spirit and Beethoven hated the moonlight sonata for similar reasons

You forgot to mention the mental cost of singing over and over a song with such self-hating lyrics, considering how raw and true they seem!! Great video!!

Getting Yorke to even strum that opening is a herculean feat on it's own.

Imagine going to a Radiohead concert and asking for Creep instead of Jigsaw 😔

Seeing creep live at a Radiohead concert it's like seeing a shiny Pokemon. Might not be the best, but it's so damn rare

This song is the reason why I always thought that radiohead is just a generic grunge band. I remember how I wasnt really interested in checking their other stuff judging by a few pablo honey and the bends songs. And one day I stumbled upon How to disappear completely and I was fckn crushed by this song and didnt believe that the creep guys made it. Thats how my lifelong obsession with the band started

"Creep" is probably the ultimate example of a stand-out track. It was their first and only song to become a massive hit, their only song that still gets played on most radio stations, and it was really the only song in Radiohead's discography to sound the way that it did.
It was popular because it resonated with a lot of frustrated people during the '90s (and even now), but you can tell that the band did not want to let that song define them. They moved as far away from that sound as they could, while making some of their most impressive work in the process.
These days, you don't really go to a Radiohead concert just to watch them perform "Creep", but it always comes as a pleasant surprise whenever they do decide to play it.

One reason Creep is so popular is because most people can relate to feeling that way about someone—ntm, it’s an awesome sounding song.

If I were in Thom's shoes, I would absolutely feel the same. If people only knew you for one song and ignored all of the music that you put your heart into making, I would begin to hate it as well. The aversion to the popularity of this song though led to the creation of some of the best albums of all time, so at least you can give it that, lol

what i find funny is how Creep is constantly pointed out as the "big single that the band hates to play" but now they seem to overcame that (they even play it in the South Amircan tour, when i saw them for the first time). Meanwhile, there's another big single that they refused to play since the 90's, "High & Dry" and no one talks about it lol

Thom: oh no, not creep again

Lemmy hated playing Ace of Spades...But he played it every night.
He always said that he would be bummed if he went to a little Richard gig and didn't hear Tutti Fruiti, so he did it for the fans...and that's one of the many reasons why Lemmy was the man.

Calling RADIOHEAD one hit wonders has my jaw on the floor

For the longest time I would only know Radiohead as the band who made Creep. They were just another 90s grunge band to me and it didn't take until a very rough moment in my life for me to open up to more of their music, and that's when I discovered No Suprises, which to this day is still my #1 Radiohead song

I wished you took time to highlight the "Very 2021 Rmx" version of the song that Thom put out recently. It's a very eerie rework that confirms your take that the song is a ghost that haunts the band, even after 20 years

I always find that an artist's most popular song is never the one that actually presents their true sound, skill and abilities, so I never judge how good an artist is based on their biggest song as most of the time the best stuff is normally a deep cut.

Creep, Smells like teen spirit, wonderwall and countless more are the musical equivalent of "say the line bart!"
