Radiohead - Creep Live - Reading festival 2009 [HQ]

[purpleraven888]

Hi Werzuhun, thanks for your comment. A few years back I was completely unfamiliar with Radiohead. I asked my brother about them and he explained how awesome they are, so when I saw "Best of Radiohead" on vinyl box set (really!!!) in a local shop (closed now, sadly) I bought it. Took it home, played it, result, instant fan. My fave band is Joy Division but Radiohead really are amazing.

[bernlin2000]

I'm just glad they reclaimed this song as their own: what happened in the 90s was it was essentially stolen from them...turned into "THE song" that everyone listened to, and yet it was still Thom's. It took them a long time to remember that it's theirs, and nobody else's: fuck everyone who used it as a tool to make money or to criticize Radiohead as a band. (I'm looking at Oasis here...fuck em all)

[timbotones24794]

F*ckin hell he is drunk

[timbotones24794]

Fuckin hell he is drunk

[purpleraven888]

8 dislikes? Are they mad? This is brilliant!

[WertzuHun]

@purpleraven888 there will be idiots always... they just love to push the dislike, on a good video. I think they aren't mad, but this is a sickness anyway. Otherwise I can't understand why are the fuckin' bieber guy in the top comment. Forget his name forever! You just help to keep alive his fuckin' legend, with saying anything about "her". If you would really like to fight "her" FORGET HIS NAME F O R E V E R! ! ! LET THE OBLIVION TAKE THOSE CRAPS!

[rhino2293]

if your going next year and intereste in rumours click my channel and then go on my blog

[Thanefolf]

I feel bad for the singer =/ being asked to play this song over and over while going live

[Jean2138849]

best "Forever Alone" song Ever!!!! xD

[GlenMuse795]

@Jean2138849 Don't ruin a great song with a retarded meme please.

[AlowTheGreatPumpkin]

@GlenMuse795 implying words on a page can ruin a song.

[GlenMuse795]

@AlowTheGreatPumpkin >Not implying correctly

>Implying on Youtube at all

>Implying they can't

You made implications to the wrong guy, kid.

[lindab30]

so love radiohead = Thom Yorke!!! he has trancended into WOW!!!!

[bryncomeaux]

we are made out of the from of god. Cut off from him we and every cr4eature are expresions of who and what he/she is. Cut off we have primal grief. we say it is child hood, parents,  or whartever but it is the fact of out own creation tthat causes us pain.

our job in liufe is to recognize this, be and bocome an expression of who/what hr is .there is more

[MooX101]

@bryncomeaux

Or we might be advanced monkeys or whatever...

[M10663]

@bryncomeaux .stop using so much cocaine.

[bryncomeaux]

didnt kermnit the fog do this?

[LeaveMyBody]

Why is Thom Yorke so awkward live?

Don't get me wrong, I love Radiohead. But I'd like to be able to appreciate his voice without him being all nasal and pulling off constipation faces.

[fyndor]

@LeaveMyBody As far as being nasal, he is not the greatest singer tonality-wise. I can't remember the interview I read it, but he himself I believe has said he hated his own voice but has learned to live with it over the years. As far as the faces, get over it man, many singers do weird things on stage, its just the way the convey their emotion.

[LeaveMyBody]

@fyndor I think I agree, although in general I really like his voice.

Yeah I guess that's true, I don't know why I didn't think about it that way.

[Crossbowrob77]

The guy below me has bieber fever.

[MrThatsYe]

band is made up of creeps

[nacf2fac]

who is Justin Beiber?

[Samson4G]

even the best F&*K up...

[liamjohn06]

i was lucky enough to witness this live and it was probably the best moment of my life

[bernlin2000]

Sure it was overplayed on the radio at the time it was released, but it's incredible how fired up a crowd gets when they play this song :-)

[TheVisitorsClub]

3:43 he really hates this song

[theezeflockofficial]

3:26

EPIC FACE.

[blackfire053]

peoples voices change. his new voice is just as good in the new music. radiohead is amazing. leave it at that.

[BOOOOOMshakalakalaka]

I can see why he refuses to sing it live, he can't sing it well without his electronics to fix up his voice

[keo774]

@BOOOOOMshakalakalaka shut up u dont know what youre talkin about

[BOOOOOMshakalakalaka]

@keo774 anyone with ears and half a brain knows what im talking about

[keo774]

@BOOOOOMshakalakalaka yeah you dont have ears and brain man

[M10663]

@BOOOOOMshakalakalaka .you idiot.llok up his earlier performances,obviious troll.

[bernlin2000]

@BOOOOOMshakalakalaka fuck you

[wakcan]

his voice is fine.you should b shot.

[brff15]

His voice has been shot for the longest time. He sounds so good in the studio though.

[wakcan]

This is #1 of all time...cos it was when i got my radiohead

[redvelvet500]

Woah, I'm surprised. I thought after like 2007 or something Thom refused to sing this song live. Interesting.

[XeeGen]

@redvelvet500 I think that's around the time they picked it up again :o Pretty sure @V 06 was the first time they played it after a long time.

[NormalInc]

whaaaaat suuuuup?

[MrArmoured155]

They are so creep :)

[limon919]

wow . . I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW FUCKIN BURNED OUT THIS SONG IS. . . . BUT MAAAN EACH TIME THEY KEEP PLAYING IT , IT GETS FUCKIN BETTER & BETTER . .

[whoditit]

coolest band on the planet now

[alecmolander]

@whoditit now, how about for the last 15 years?

[RukkiI]

@whoditit Queens of the Freakin' Stone Age ???!!! Black Keys ? :( SON! you dissapoint me

[SaintxOfxSuburbia]

@RukkiI Radiohead beats both. The Black Keys are really nothing special.

[JBiscaia33]

@SaintxOfxSuburbia Radiohead is clearly the best band of the last 15 years and counting. The Black Keys are the second best, this because The White Stripes broke up.

[woohoootomic80]

@whoditit It's not coolest band now, IT IS THE BAST BAND EVER !!!!!!!!!!

[janu413]

hruza

[Dav1dFromGeorgia]

"WaZaaaaap?!"



[elyakupie]

@Dav1dFromGeorgia "Nothing!"

[pheadxx]

I think this song is all a sarcasm. Like if Thom or whoever was saying: "you're so perfect, yeah, sure, i'm a creep"

[Jirue7609]

@pheadxx I would agree if it was upbeat, kind of like Cea Lo's Fuck you. Yeah, the message and what he's talking about is kinda sad and depressing but it has a sassy and upbeat sound, so hes obviously very sassy and sarcastic.

This has a really depressed and sad sound, so it's pretty clear that he means what he says, not that he's being sarcastic.

[Jirue7609]

@Jirue7609 Cee-Lo* Sorry

[pheadxx]

@Jirue7609 and i clearly disagree with your disagree because THEY'RE FUCKING RADIOHEAD. When have they show the REAL meanings of their song in the surface? That's not for what they're known.

[Jirue7609]

@pheadxx If they meant for it to be sarcastic then they did a terrible job conveying that.  I think you're just over thinking it to be cool.

[negativewierdo]

@Jirue7609 ahh.....upbeat? I beg to differ

[Jirue7609]

@negativewierdo You don't think "Fuck You" By Cee Lo Green is upbeat?

[negativewierdo]

@Jirue7609 fuck you is. creep......not so much

[Jirue7609]

@negativewierdo Yeah that's what I meant :P

[negativewierdo]

@Jirue7609 okay, sorry i misunderstood :)

[jorget89]

this & the summersonic live version are the best .....i love that extra feeling when fans start to chant the song

[aem1994]

7 people should actually listen music

[MrEvanTheSkater]

that voice crack made my evening

[felipumas77]

ia le cambio la voz tzzz :X

[loveandpig]

despite the fact this song almost made radiohead to split up its like an anthem, and a really really good song.

[MrAnelker]

@re7ard1337 actually yeah I can believe that I mean this isn't my favorite song by them but it's good. O and did he like it at first or just playing it a million times kinda make him not like it.

[MrAnelker]

who the f dislikes this

[re7ard1337]

@MrAnelker Thom Yorke hates this song, actually.

[mrhandsome931]

1000th like thanks to me

[MK19Radiohead]

0:21 Wasaaaap! :D Love Love Love <3

[aaqaaqaaqaaqaaqaaqaa]

thom must hate this tune

[nhadz16]

this is the 90's Radiohead that I really love...

[SilverestFuel]

No, it's a song in general for those of us who at one point were made to feel like a creep/weirdo regardless of how you actually look. In the end, it's not so much about being ugly but simply not being able to measure up to that person we hold so dear, not being worthy enough.

[wurble]

It's weird seeing the modern day Radiohead performing Creep. They are sooooo far beyond this song now it's unreal. Kinda like asking Picasso at the height of his creativity to recreate a doodle he did as a child. Still, great performance and good to see they actually put the effort in.

[ABoyInTheBush]

@wurble thats a shit and incorrect analogy

[djzbasebol5]

@ABoyInTheBush No it's not, Pablo Honey was about guitar riffs and catchy beats. After Kid A they have become a much more experimental and outgoing band.

[ABoyInTheBush]

@djzbasebol5 Yes, it is. Do you have a brain?

[myuesrnameisbad]

How can Thom Yorke making singing out of tune so beutiful

[dvt1393]

Pure. Fucking. Perfection.

[jvac1co]

Hey 6 dislikes, FUCK YOU!

[SilverestFuel]

Lovely performance! So what if Yorke's voice is not as high as it once was? You don't expect after 16 years of recordings and live gigs that his voice will deliver the same way it used to in 1993, did ya? Doesn't take way from what a great job they did on this one. This is the best live version of Creep I've seen them do considering this was very much late in the 2000's.

[famegala]

J'aime mais, j'ai l'impression que c'est une grosse murge bourée qui chante :s

[thomm016]

Too many times have I been watching a radiohead video and noticed my mouth wide open...

[TheRyanzkie]

AMAZING GUITAR STRUM! WTF!!

[Josabeech]

Why didn't they play this at Leeds? :/

[reydiyohed]

3:36 sıçıyor

[iClubMidgets]

They have not aged a day in 20 years.

[brunoarpgg]

@dafaton Its not about hating it or whatsoever, its about liking the other hits more than this one, witch is pretty good

[vivinred]

jajaja se le fue el gallo!!! a kien no le ha pasado en esta cancion

[vivinred]

jajaja se le fue el gallo!!!

[Paynetex]

3:37 sucks xdd

[1dandrae]

I love these guys. Ima british bass player and i love to play the epiclay simple and awesomw bassline! Long live RH and britrock!

[toby8778]

This is a song for us ugly repulsive guys

[SX1995able]

@toby8778 Or us guys who can`t get the girl we like, because we`re ugly.

[spankthezebra]

Who gives a shit if he doesnt sing so high anymore ....?? FUCK YOU ALL. THIS IS GREAT !!!

[Radioheadic]

Look ma nick name

[Fregissima]

2:09 - 2:19 is so fucking gorgeous

[iwannafuckadog1]

Love this song <3

[JPeffingham]

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!

[shellyun0113]

i kinda like the original version. with his high voices

[chiefbuddhathai]

6 ppl are insanely homo!

[MrArne3000]

jim carrey's version is better! :D

[1213tonylin]

Beyond description. Amazing

[umutmadik]

this is something else, not a song!!

[samxxmas]

I don't see anything wrong with how he's singing!

[ultravioletaify]

um lixo!

[JokerJohnJoker]

@ultravioletaify Fuck off if you don't like this song

[ultravioletaify]

@JokerJohnJoker seu babaca quanto vc está ganhando pra se meter no meu comentário???

CUIDA DA SUA VIDA!

[euphrat0815]

this was the very first song I heard from Radiohead, and that was over 13 years ago. I love it so much, but since then ... I can not tell which Radiohead song is my favourite because they're all so f***ing amazing. Did they actually _not_ play that song for a while on their concerts because they didn't like it?

[Keefter78]

Funny how Radiohead fans generally fall into those two distinct camps. Personally I'm a massive Radiohead fan but only really up and including Kid A, after that I can take it or leave it tbh. With every new album I have hope in my heart of a return to a more traditional early Radiohead sounds with less electronics and more guitars, I've about given up hope now though.

[geekyt4]

this has even more mellower mood than when they recorded it.Its like a different version of creep, like after years of making other songs,i t seems as if this version song has settled the score for how they feel.

[iClubMidgets]

I need this on DVD.

[kingsoflimbs]

just look at the band they are loving it!!!

[arma182]

My theory is that Hardcore Fans "hate" this song because Thom at one point he said He hated this song, and probably was the worst song they had... I think people just want to fit, or be like "yea i want to be like thom and i hate this song to"

[MrHiltonCubit]

I am a fan of Radioheads music but only from OK Computer onwards.  I used to see them play live on the gig and festival circuit pre OK Computer but it just did nothing for me then.

[iClubMidgets]

Well okay there's thousands of fans there and they all know the words and they're all singing along. So maybe it's only cool to hate the song when you're talking about Radiohead but at the concert it's okay again because the band likes it again.

Fuck you all. I love Pablo Honey.

[MrIvansanvi]

Orgasm loading.

[ascrodin]

C'mon Thom, jump around, hold the mic out to the crowd, yell at them to sing louder, stop mumbling, smile, take some cues from Jagger, Daltrey, Freddie Mercury, Springsteen, Diamond Dave Roth, Joey Ramone, Bono, Steven Page, Chris Martin, Mike Love, etc...PLAY FRONTMAN and have FUN!!!

[Qenner]

3:43 Thom is swearing cause his voice failed, but still it's an awesome performance.

[callummj6747]

Hardcore Radiohead Fan here, all you pretentious assholes who can't enjoy this masterpiece because its popular, your loss. This performance is special, every performance is special because Yorke will always put so much emotion into every lyric!!!

[TheOneartist]

@callummj6747 I don't like it, not because it's popular, but because of the song itself. It's miles away from everything they did after Pablo Honey, and it's not because of how popular the song is. The popularity only adds to how I already feel about the song, and that's the same for most Radiohead fans.

While The Bends may have a similar style, it's much better musically but especially lyrically. It sounds less derivative, and it's an album that actually influenced others.

But your opinion.

[Theoffspring875]

3:20 - 3:40 his Emotion on his face is so real, you can't fake that :3

[antigypsi]

I think Thom didn't his best at this concert. The performing of this song wasn't as good as it was in 1994, for example. Even now I like the song, and the band.

[creatievzyn]

I don't think they'll ever perform it quite like they did in '94, but every time's a jewel, simply because it's Radiohead

[MrMaxWatts]

Let's face it, he's wasted and could have done better! Still kranks them high notes like a mutha though!!! What a great version by the band though!!!

[Niamorg1007]

I don't care if his voice isn't perfect in this performance, 3:14 - 3:34 is raw, pure emotion.

[ChablesMan]

I feel bad for everyone who can't enjoy this song because it's "popular."

[coolappsful]

@ChablesMan luckily I dont have to worry about that. because im fifteen and live in a small town where all they listin to is pop and heavy metal. I have no friends really. but at least i can enjoy my music right? :)

[ChablesMan]

@coolappsful Absolutely. I never heard this song growing up, actually. I listened to mostly classic rock stations and jazz when I was growing up, so Creep, for me personally, remains "untainted," which is probably a good reason I can enjoy it so much easier than most other people.

[coolappsful]

@ChablesMan have you ever heard of sigur ros?

[ChablesMan]

@coolappsful I have heard of him, but only heard a couple of songs. (If it is indeed a him.)

[queerp]

@ChablesMan sigur ros is a band. not just one person. and yes they're all men

[ChablesMan]

@queerp Ah. Know I know. And knowing is half the battle.

[queerp]

@ChablesMan lol ok :P

[coolappsful]

@ChablesMan if you watch there song svefn g englar live on youtube. its amazing. well i think it is. everyone has there own tastes.

[ChablesMan]

@coolappsful Alright. I'll check it out

[johannthebored]

Thom looks like he's putting all the effort that he'd want to put into performing a song he'd hated since the early '90s, and I don't blame him.

[sk8leton89]

life as we know it brought me here.

[smitty618]

i can relate, that part is a bitch to sing

i hate though when I say to people that Radiohead are my favourite band and they automatically associate this song as it's like the only thing they've ever done. But it's still a great song.

[marcia2833]

i lov him and i'm wet

[Superninjasam]

@marcia2833 nice...

[rocanlover151]

@marcia2833 me2

[MrFreedomGotAnAK]

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

[mikeyc55]

the most overrated radiohead song.

[Griffindorkiwi]

@mikeyc55 it really is... haha

[SidneyAugustoDaSilva]

Man!!! What is this feeling???? At 3:28!!! That's why I love music: it gives you feelings in one second. It happens more often when I listen to Radiohead.

[flawless420]

musical genius Thom is.

[bahanas301]

i thought they said they weren't going to perform this song anymore

[benzo13a]

best song EVER !

[adekbedroom]

wassapp!!!

[TheMacedonianguy]

Thom Yorke e CAR!!!

[troyyorkeson]

3:37 >>> the voice goes where thom can't reach it...

3:43 >>> " fffuuu- this *****! "

Ahah, Still like this pretty much !

[daredate]

@troyyorkeson Thom can reach that note these days, so stfu

[velkan1988]

Marling,, ya tu sabes,,, tqm,, you're so fuckin' special

[dafaton3]

I love how hardcore Radiohead fans pretend to hate this song when It is absolutely amazing. There's nothing wrong with secretly loving even the most overplayed hits of a band, just sing along like you know you want to.

[mook5555]

@dafaton3 I consider myself a hardcore fan, and I ADORE this song. I just get annoyed at my friends who think this is the only song Radiohead has ever released.

[dafaton3]

@mook5555 Totally agree

[TheBarbon85]

@dafaton3 Exactly. There's a reason it always gets the biggest cheer of the night.

[charmand79]

@dafaton3

I agree mate. At some point I almost fell into that "trap" too. Creep might not be as "intelligent" as songs from the OK computer and on era but it still gives me the chills. Actually it might do this more than any other of their songs.

[stereosanctity7]

@dafaton3 yes yes finally someone says that...for me its the lyrics..the people on this world seem to love to make your feel like a creep and a weirdo and when I was in high school I felt like that a lot cuz other kids are assholes ... and this song got me through it...so as much as they or anyone hates it, it kept me alive...actually I saw them in 2003 for the hail to the thief tour they played creep right in the middle of there set and everyone around me gasped and a started screaming..

[Zainab464]

@dafaton3 this song is 2 beautiful! the lyrics everything! my brother cries listenin 2 it! dunt know why!! but every1 lykes different things!!!! every 1 havv a different choice so maybe they hate this song bzoc of their choice!!! am i rite ?? but anyway if sum1 hates dats bad!

[poiuytreza11]

@dafaton3 dude you made me laugh so hard , so true what you're saying

[getyourwifeout]

@dafaton3 too right there mate

[mogumunarok]

@dafaton3 without this song, "hardcore fans" will never know Radiohead (opinion)

[LxPxRxPunk]

@dafaton3 i feel that the rejection for this song came from the fact that it speaks for the ugly, fat and unpopular kids but was sung by the exact opposite: beautiful, popular trendy kids just beacuse it has a catchy melody . Same for wheres my mind? by the pixies. I guess at the end it just goes to show you hiw miserable those kids felt really.

[mrmchpisto]

@dafaton3 Amen
