+Nick Bland Creep was good for Radiohead until they had to play the song over and over and over again. They have come to hate this song and rarely perform it. I can understand why they wouldn't want to play it live. They hate it. I like it but I don't like the toll it took on Radiohead.
+Nick Bland well it's not like normal people love the song... if you really love this, it's not likely your other favorite song is justin bieber's "baby".
They don't. I saw them at Glastonbury recently, and everyone went mad for 'Creep'. Don't try to speak on behalf of all Radiohead fans because that's just pretentious and annoying.
Sounds like he started too low so it was harder to hit those high notes and to hold it.. Boy, 9 years ago, if the date is correct, he looks soooo different now. This video has got to be older than 2009..ijs.
Radiohead has taken their place alongside the immortals of rock 'n roll music-- The Beatles, Bob Dylan, The Stones, Led Zeppelin, Bob Marley, The Who, Pink Floyd, U2, Nirvana, etc. Count yourself lucky that you're around to witness them.
they hate it more than creep. in fact, they lightened on creep but will probably never lighten up on high and dry. i'm more pissed off at them not playing electioneering tbh.
I just watched a live version of Creep from 1994, and I find it really cool that Greenwood used the exact same guitar at this concert, and 15 years ago.
I love Radiohead's later songs......however, this song is Radiohead's most iconic song......it touched the soul of every insecure kid in all of us that felt they did not fit in.
I don't even listen to the song i just come here from time to time to hear the reaction of the crowd, it's such a beautiful equilibrium of hysteria, ecstacy and desbelief.
This song is truly a work of art. It's a shame that they don't like playing it, but i can't imagine playing the same song over and over again would be very fun.
You people are so naive, they don't hate the song, they just got bored of playing it so much and didn't like the attention it got. Many bands don't like their most famous songs but Thom thinks it's a good song, I have a bootleg of him saying that.
The reason Radiohead dislikes this song: When the band debuted, most crowds only wanted to hear this song opposed to their other songs. It happens alot to bands. Sometimes it gets old playing the same song over and over and over. I just feel its ironic that this band dislikes the song that defined them.
+Daryl Moore I don't understand why they've stopped performing it. Okay, they may be bored with it, but they must realise it's what made them so successful.
Sean Bolden First three meaning Pablo Honey, The Bends, OK Computer. I enjoy listening to Pablo Honey in full maybe because I listen to quite a lot of grunge music.
Not sure why people like this but this shows a lack of proper vocal skills. Despite that, great singer and great song, but these notes he only managed when he was a little younger, after years of touring he can't hit these anymore ( Its a G4 for those interested ).
***** Well without proper vocal skills people will completely destroy their voice so they wont even be able to convey that so called ''soul'' either :C
TIMxisxHERE well i dont care about the "vocal skills". its about about singing with the soul and everyone has their own style at doing it. look at his face while he sings he IS conveying what he feels. he is really talented despite the voice crack. are you singer or something or had a huge crowd to sing your G4?. idk just my opinion, the voice crack did sound funny but he knows how to perform "creep" like no one ever. every artist has its good and bad sides.
Walter Antonio Alba An No there were no big crowds when I hit that G4 because a G4 is not that high. Most of male singers in medium/low voices can reach that with ease. Hence my comment about proper vocal skills because that should easily be reached. I'd define a good singer based on more things than the way he handles his throat, like stage-charisma, conveying emotion and playing together with the rest of your band members to make a '''whole''. He certainly does that, in that aspect, great showman, great frontman, great musician, but great singer? ... ometimes. - He admitted to this himself many times btw. He has taken a load of vocal lessons along the way to make his live performances sound better. Voice cracks are bad, and he knows that. He doesn't intend to make them either, if possible, he wants to avoid them altogether. If people perceive them as something good than that is simply a misinterpretation of what voice cracks really convey; a lack of proper breath control.
To people saying this song defined their carreer: Sure, it might have as a nice britpop band. But works like OK Computer and Kid A are what turned them into one of the best bands in the world. You know why they don't play it live so often? Because they always have good new content, so why play old stuff? It's not about remembering the past, it's about moving forward, being forward-thinking is what got Radiohead to where they are right now.
Lupe OK, Computer is one of my all-time favorite albums. Simply spectacular. I never get tired of hearing it. That's the album that put them on the map. Agree with you.
They still play a lot of songs from OK Computer, which came out 20 years ago. 'Creep' was released only 4 years before that, so I don't really understand your argument...
THIS SONG IS ABOUT THAT ONE SPECIAL GIRL WHICH WE LOVED SO MUCH BUT DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO KEEP OR GET A CHANCE TO BE WITH.. I BET WE ALL KNOW WHAT GIRL THIS SONG MEANS TO US.
+gajaga789 I disagree. I feel like by opening with it at Reading the song has come full circle, time to put it to rest. But yeah, anything is possible with Radiohead's unpredictable nature.
they've played blowout a couple times recently. and i personally find it hard to believe that they hate creep. the lyrics are so powerful, and they speak to everyone. they just played it too much wayyy back when.
This was the first Radiohead song I heard and probably my favorite. That the band hates it only makes it more special. It's a song that makes you feel whatever the writer was feeling when he wrote it. Really impressive. I guess they don't like Creep because they don't like to accept what they are, and are angry with themselves(just like the Creep from the song).
I just watched 40 or so Radiohead performances of Creep in the chronological (kinda) order.Watching Thom's approach to the song throughout these years is something unbelievable.At some points he grows tired of it,sometimes he rocks the hell out of it,sometimes he changes the length of the "ruuuuuun" scream,sometimes he is disgusted by it.Many faces of Thom Yorke in one song,many fucking emotions in this beautiful human being
+Paulo V. I disagree that that's the actual reason. Why play a song if you're going to deliberately make it sound shit? That particular part is a very high note to belt out without going into falsetto, especially for a man in his forties. His frustration/embarrassment at not being able to hit the note was very apparent in his reaction afterwards.
Apesar dele ter desafinado numa certa parte da música, ainda acho que essa foi a melhor apresentação ao vivo dessa música, parece que saiu do coração do cara, merecidamente a melhor ao vivo.....

Creep gets too much hate just for being popular; it's a great song man, don't let the millions of people who love this song ruin it for you.
Exactly
+Nick Bland You´re fucking right!
whatever the fuck you say.

Did Thom York just fucking wazzap?!?!
WAZUUUUUUUPPP
As Bruce Dickinson said: "Here's something from our jurassic period."
+Mr. Veteran Wrathchild !
At the end when he says "whatever makes you happy", I can't help but feel he's addressing the audience.
like in a sarcastic way?
i can't understand why they play it...
Because the crowd want to hear it? It's not their best song, but it's a hit that everybody will sing along to.
JJ H but i mean, they HATE the song.
They don't. I saw them at Glastonbury recently, and everyone went mad for 'Creep'. Don't try to speak on behalf of all Radiohead fans because that's just pretentious and annoying.
JJ H again, i meant RADIOHEAD hates the song. not the people. i like the song in fact
For Yorke to say this is his most hated song... he really puts the emotion into it.
It was the first time they played it in like a decade... they didnt play it again in like 8 years
Its from 2009 and they played in 2006 wtf
@@marcoslima7869 no this is from 2009, they didn't play it in 2006
@@crowkid5553 they did
@@yurickBuenos Aires?
You can tell he's not into it when there's a noticeable lack of furious head swaying...
i think he always does that with other songs
It's kind of a "stoner" sounding song though so not being "into in" kinda fits it honestly. I think it's cool. :)
Sounds like he started too low so it was harder to hit those high notes and to hold it.. Boy, 9 years ago, if the date is correct, he looks soooo different now. This video has got to be older than 2009..ijs.

They're better than all of these, They're just really overrated

Another one…wings from Malaysia 😊
Why arent people upset that they dont play high and dry anymore?

I wish I would hear that on the radio in my life time.
@Ghristopher Jinkins They think it's too poppy, also they were pressured to put it on the album instead of the (imo superior) Maquiladora
Coz it’s crap
because black star is better
I just watched a live version of Creep from 1994, and I find it really cool that Greenwood used the exact same guitar at this concert, and 15 years ago.
now 29 years ago.
He always plays the same guitar.
3:43 Thom is swearing cause his voice failed, but still it's an awesome performance.
It's still my favourite Radiohead song. Sure they progressed and sure they became special but this early song was touched with genius.
I love Radiohead's later songs......however, this song is Radiohead's most iconic song......it touched the soul of every insecure kid in all of us that felt they did not fit in.
Jonny seems like the only one who gives a fuck about what they're doing :')
Nah, he scratches the guitar to show how much he hates the song.
Yeah, he hates this song more than anyone
As a Radiohead fan, I listen to this song and think " I guess I had to start somewhere." But where I started was fucking amazing!
I don't even listen to the song i just come here from time to time to hear the reaction of the crowd, it's such a beautiful equilibrium of hysteria, ecstacy and desbelief.
This song is truly a work of art. It's a shame that they don't like playing it, but i can't imagine playing the same song over and over again would be very fun.
every band does that
Hahah loved how chilled he was through the full performance.
I can't tell if Thom's taking this seriously or not.
its probably a bit of joke for them since they hate it but fans love it
Nah, he's not.
Mainly because they all hate it.
I'm not surprised, pablo honey was utter arse gravy.
Or he's drunk? Lol
You people are so naive, they don't hate the song, they just got bored of playing it so much and didn't like the attention it got. Many bands don't like their most famous songs but Thom thinks it's a good song, I have a bootleg of him saying that.
He was on drugs at the time
I don't care if his voice isn't perfect in this performance, 3:14 - 3:34 is raw, pure emotion.
This had me in tears.
one of the best lives i've ever seen before. they perfomance was just great!
Me trying to sing the song 3:36

+Sean Bolden I consider their first 3 albums sublime, their recent songs have been very uninteresting.
Sean Bolden First three meaning Pablo Honey, The Bends, OK Computer. I enjoy listening to Pablo Honey in full maybe because I listen to quite a lot of grunge music.
+Daryl Moore just like nirvana
+Daryl Moore Because in all reality, it doesn't define them...they've got so much music that's 100 times better than this song.
this was the best live performance i have ever seen it was class being there the atmosphere was out of this world
this never gets old....
that voice crack tho

so glad these guys still make music !!
such an incredible performance
Aguante Radiohead! ❤
Quien no los ama :$
Divino
couldn't agree more, it's a genius song overlooked by the majority of radiohead fans because of the mainstream appeal it acquired
i was lucky enough to witness this live and it was probably the best moment of my life
this song in my head all the time!!!
3:25 - 3:35 que voz tan increíble.
Man this is funny as fuck. It's so painfully obvious they hate this track.
correct!!!, congratulations!! you are a real fan :D
@@ChAHG 😂
I don't think Radiohead do anything they don't want to do.
Too many times have I been watching a radiohead video and noticed my mouth wide open...
Beyond description. Amazing
este grupo es increible, suenan como en las canciones de estudio, con lo dificil que ees en un live!!
I love Jonny tearing up that guitar🎸🎸🇺🇸🇬🇧😀
Me too pal.
This performance has made this song listenable once again for me.
Amazing, so deep inside!
this was the first song in the set. XDXDXD. imagine the crowd's reaction.
I was there, it was the last thing anyone expected, reaction was crazy
yes this song defines them. it's like the purest message of alienation the band ever put forward lol.
+EyMeng dont let thom read this xd
No. Not at all.
And *that* is why Yorke fucking hates this song.
DarkSaborComa not anymore
EyMeng Funny dat boi.
This is my favourite Radiohead song. I love it.
This is still the greatest thing I've ever seen in my life
3:26 is why Radiohead is my favorite band
THIS SONG IS ABOUT THAT ONE SPECIAL GIRL WHICH WE LOVED SO MUCH BUT DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO KEEP OR GET A CHANCE TO BE WITH.. I BET WE ALL KNOW WHAT GIRL THIS SONG MEANS TO US.
I love the high note he hits towards the end.
Pure goose bumps ...
I'll bet this will be the last time they perform creep.
+patrick crawford No way. It gets played for short runs every now and then. Not often, but this definitely won't be the last time.

+Javier Peralta tf... Go to a show and youll hear people yelling it from the crowd. Thats why they dont like it.
Amazing performance.
awesome!!
Yorke is a really disturbed dude.
It's kinda scary.
how do you know are you a psychiatrist
You don't have to be. Listen to the lyrics or watch interviews and live performances. Or just google it.
that's the point of the music, it takes what's scary and makes it beautiful
Koda Dais Doesn't come across as scary or deeply disturbed, just very artistic. If anything he seems a little out of it, but not insane or anything.
You're a creep. You're a weirdo. What the hell are you doing here? You don't belong here!
those young girls at 2:42 lmao mess
Surly they both ended up naked somewhere afterwards?
I was here, when this happened, having my mind blown! & Im going to be there again, on the 8th of October (:
Loved this, cracking way to open or what!
seriously, Ed seems to be Dr House
I just watched 40 or so Radiohead performances of Creep in the chronological (kinda) order.Watching Thom's approach to the song throughout these years is something unbelievable.At some points he grows tired of it,sometimes he rocks the hell out of it,sometimes he changes the length of the "ruuuuuun" scream,sometimes he is disgusted by it.Many faces of Thom Yorke in one song,many fucking emotions in this beautiful human being
Tak bardzo mi przykro.

a tribute to all creeps and weirdos.
Thom Yorke will always keep you wondering.A real chameleon if I ever seen one. Lol
Love love love this song very much!!💟
lmfaoooooo you rock man !
Wtf happeneded to this guy he looks like w wizard now lol
a lifetime of incredible stress...it can do that to you, man. give him a break.
cos im a creep

sorry, I just had to..
was the singer drunk?
It looks like it lol
headlining a festival you not really got much else to do for 10 hours or so backstage
Lol MCFCRuss Brown
Alastair Ingram No, Thom Yoke is just really fucking weird. And fucked up because of drugs.
Will IsNotCool Yea Thom Yoke is weird, but not Thom Yorke
this was the best live, I think
Awesome!!

When he holds out the word "Run" for the first time, it is AWESOME and shows how great of a singer thom is.
not the second time tho 😂 kidding, he's gotten old but he's still pretty good

yes.of course.i really love the song

Well... That sounded like shit.
you r fucking right
Love to see he still is making love with the microphone
One of the best songs in the world
love it....
I was turned on to radiohead with this song but now I love every single one of their albums and they are now my favorite band by far.
This theme brings back memories, the person I dedicate myself framed me forever
yes yes!!!!
Chills!!
The song makes me cry!
just look at the band they are loving it!!!

I hope that one day in my lifetime I get to see this brilliant band live
