yeah .. the hymn of unrecuited love......................... or in other words - "somtething in your head is tearing you apart - fight FIGHT!" (Raindbirds: "In love and alright")
This was my generation! The reason people are head banging and rocking to the music is because they feel every word and felt seen. They are liberating the sadness within. They are singing along because it's their story too. Creep is an anthem!
It's about unrequited love, being infatuated with someone who doesn't even care that you're alive...especially if you're a different or perhaps nerdy guy that looks like Thom.
I kind of have to give the title to the ultimate unrequitted love song to Pearl Jam's song called Black. That once you can just feel the anguish. Especially the MTV unplugged live version.@@Frk_Tamer
@@tomcat9761 I'm surprised to see this song referenced, but it is truly a great song. Allowing yourself to feel that love, knowing the ultimate result. Been there.
Again, I must say, I’ve seen this song live, and yes I sung and moshed. But it’s a celebration of the song, we all stop and sing the emotion bits together, most of us with tears in our eyes because the song resonates so deeply with, me. The plural of anecdote is not data but I very much doubt I was the only Radiohead fan singing those lines from the bottom of my heart…
It was about a girl he fell for at Uni who he never had a courage to approach until one night when drunk he told her how he felt and she ran away. It was late and a guy she didn't know approached her , not too surprising she ran. The line "She's Running again" is from that moment. Years later apparently she went to a Radiohead concert and someone told him she was there and he almost didn't go on. It's a really personal song to him.
NO... she ran away out of a record shop after seeing that he was in there (probably where they got the idea in that Johnny Depp movie), that's on record. No idea where you got that info but Thom said he never even told that girl he liked her, it was just kinda obvious to her. according to him he couldn't even get close to her let alone talk to her.
I can see how it the crowd's reaction appears in conflict with the performance. The thing is, the reason everyone is so energetic is because when this song came out it spoke to so many people that feel or have felt exactly what Thom is singing about. It hit me like a ton bricks at the time, still does. It's a very specific thing, and this song goes straight to quick of it in a way no other song had really ever done before. He is voicing a feeling that is rarely expressed so honestly, and the relief from feeling seen and heard from that can be quite freeing; Hence the enthusiasm.
“What happened there?” He was crying! 😢 omg that song… this version…so personal… so raw…god knows what he’s thinking there singing it. I guess we’ll never know for sure. But it’s powerful & it hurts. 😔
I was 19 when this song hit the scene! Thom is such an amazing vocalist! You can hear the pain in his voice. Radiohead was around in the 90s Muse was early 2000s
I think the definition of creep has tightened since then. Back then you may think of someone hanging on the outside, lurking not so much in a sinister fashion, but more just not belonging or out of place. Now it's more specific to unwanted advances, etc. Those were creeps too, but not the only type :)
This is about that second type though. It's about a girl he was really into but didn't even dare to approach. Not a pushy pervert kind of creep, but an always glancing, knows everything about you yet you barely know him kind of creep. Regardless of whether he really acted like a creep, it made him feel that way.
Radiohead had a lot of songs and videos in the 1990’s played on MTV. Several albums- the Bends, Kid A, OK Computer, In Rainbows and many more. I’ve been watching a Lolapolosa concert in Berlin 2017 is good and they’ve a Grammy performance with the USC band that good. Thom Yorke had a very hypnotic voice and stage presence- all the band is Good!!
Interesting how Postmodern Jukebox and Hayley Reinhard have completely changed the singing by changing the arrangement and style of singing!Totally different (sexy).
Yeah sometimes a live performance just conveys the emotions so much stronger than the record, I felt the same way you did just now, on first listen it didnt hit me but when you see this version it hits like a truck in comparison. It does show Radiohead is a great band to see live (eventhough they hate playing Creep I believe haha) (Tool - Sober Live, had a similar effect on me)
You could have an incredible reaction channel just doing Tool and Radiohead and even though they don't sound at all alike their music does remind me of the other both very intricate but in a very different way.
You had the proper reaction to such a powerful performance. I think many of us musicians tear up for great performances. Also "creep" didn't always refer to a person making sexual advances. There was just a general category of someone other people would call a creep back then.
Hermosa reacción Milly. Ahora ve la versión que hizo Paulina, la baterista de the warning. Por cierto en abril van para allá las diosas del rock para que vayas a verlas.
This was way before Cell Phones and how there was an instant way to "Hook" up. Infact you might have heard of MTV and this was one of the first bands they had a live performance around some weird pool set up and they sang that song back then. It was from a time where your actions held true. I grew up in the 80's and even back then we knew (if your mother and father taught you proper lessons) that even though you were out of place at the time. You totally felt like a creep, like you couldn't approach the cute girl in middle school, in highschool. As time goes by, we tend to learn lessons it's more about possitivity and including people that surround you is the key. Back then you had no communication skills, you most likely wer from a totally broken home and were never taught how to share outwards because inwards you were being attacked as a preteen. It's a message, a love message where even when you think you're down, the person you like might have those lost feelings as well as a teen.
For one of the best ever Radiohead live performances, check out their performance of Planet Telex at Cochella (mid-1990s.) It's amazing. And Thom is channeling Smeagol..
I think it's something many of us (I can only speak for blokes) feel in our teenage years. Desperately infatuated with someone, and feeling completely "unworthy" and incapable of approaching them.
Along with The Beatles and Led Zeppelin, Radiohead are creative genius' that evolved and changed their musical art with each subsequent album. When you do choose to listen to whole albums, these three bands (at least) deserve that attention. "Ok Computer" is a masterpiece.
Aloha Millie, if you want to check out a completely different version of Creep, please watch Paulina Villarreal's cover. The lyrics hit you in a different way. Cheers! Lovely Russian blue you have there!
most likely they are happy to be among people that relate with the song, as well as a song thats relateble, and feel happy to see their favorite band live, its.. different
this song voiced my angst in the ´90´s being 13 and helpless, father just died from leukemia, brother in same angst, hormones running amok, mother cracking from loss while working shifts as nurse assistant to keep remains of the family alive.
It was around at a similarly shitty time in my life as well, only I was 18 then. This song speaks to everyone of all ages everywhere. Most of us (I can't say all cause some ppl have only ever known good times, for now) can relate this song to some time or event in their lives. I lost my dad to cancer, I was working on a trawler at the time and could be gone for weeks on end working hard and risking my life until I had enough to put a deposit on a flat and get me and the then love of my life a place of our own. Only later to find out while I was living wet through and freezing cold everyday and being sick as a dog and getting an hours sleep a day, wet, rough broken horrible sleep, she'd been doing other things, with other ppl. So it wasn't a great time in my life either. And this song transports me back 30 years in an instant. Props to your mum for carrying on for you all when she must have been dying inside and about ready to just breakdown.
He wrote it after a real life thing. He liked a girl at his college and he saw her in a record shop one day and when she saw him she basically ran out... hence the 'run, run, run' etc.
I’m sorry Millie. I was somewhat ostracized growing up because I was shy. My now 35-year old son grew up with Asperger’s. And boy. No words for the horror of that. Not just for him (of course he himself experienced the horribleness of it) but as a Mother. Ugh. Powerful song.
In fairness, most will view those they deem a weirdo as a creep, because only other weirdos accept the flirtations of other weirdos. Most creatives I think are "weirdos", because in order to be creative you have to not fit in the mold of society as precise as the "normal" person. Awesome reaction.
I have heard this before, 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) I love both version!
1. The cat can hear the tune through your pods! 2. Cats can read your expressions! (as can dogs) 3. Cats (and dogs) can see your energy aura around your body! (magnetic field) 4. Being a part of a predatory animals "family" they are very protective! ( And yes there are glaring exceptions) If you watch your video back you can see the cat reading your eye movement and expression. (Yes I know there are millions that won't agree) Great reaction! Sorry to hear you were bullied! I was as well and I'm old enough to be your grandfather. Fun fact: Only one group of people like bully's, other bully's. Thank you for the content! Keep it going!
Excelente reacción, nuevamente te sugiero que reacciones a The Warning, banda mexicana de ROck, que son extraordinarias, de hecho escucha a Pau baterista de la banda con su cover de esta canción, y te encantará🤟🤘
Thom's performance, i.e. how he channels the lyrics from within himself into their raw emotional form, is why no matter how well people cover Radiohead songs, they still fall short in comparison. Although, I would be curious to see James Blunt try something like Exit Music. 😂
Good reaction, for more music of more or less the same time, I would suggest you hunger strike from temple of the dog, there is a live performance with Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornel. Another very personal performance would be Everlong from foo fighters (Wimbley 2008).
When I saw this song live. I’m a massive Radiohead fan and I get what you’re saying about moshing to the lyrics. But, my way of thinking about it is a do and have felt like a ‘creep’, I’ve felt like I don’t belong in places, but the break is saying F you! To that feeling, that’s what the build up is for 😊
Thom yorke was very out the limelight,considering he fronted & wrote songs for possibly the best band of the 90's.yes even better than oasis,radiohead kept on diversing no matter about publicity.named after a song by talking heads.another underrated band from the 80's.check out their stop making sense tour live
I've just discovered your TH-cam channel and I think you come over really well..there are so many songs I'd like to see you react to so can I recommend the mighty wah story of the blues..hope to ser it soon on.your channel as i dont think anyone has done it
Millie look up dexys midnight runners.beautiful 80'a music.also van morrison who in his prime has to be up there with dylan.astral weeks-beautiful album 50 years on,brings joy,tears,happiness all rolled into 1
Beautiful and highly competent people still make me feel unworthy and defeated. I don't think that gets better. If they're arrogant and inconsiderate, you can reject them back. They can stay as mirages, on the screen or the poster.
The people in the crowd head banging and dancing know more of what this song means than anyone else. Think we've all felt like that weirdo creep outcast at some point. Those people in that crowd are surrounded by people that wont treat them in such terrible ways so they lets lose even to a such a troubling song
Your cat knows something is wrong and is trying to make you feel better! That is awesome!
I came here to say the same thing
I want someone to look at me the way her cat looks at her lol
OH for fuck sake! The cats wants food! It could give 2 fucks about you trying g to tune a youtuber!
yeah .. the hymn of unrecuited love.........................
or in other words - "somtething in your head is tearing you apart - fight FIGHT!" (Raindbirds: "In love and alright")
This was my generation! The reason people are head banging and rocking to the music is because they feel every word and felt seen. They are liberating the sadness within. They are singing along because it's their story too. Creep is an anthem!
I love how your cat looks at you in a slightly concerned way and decided to let you know, that she is there for her weird hooman :D
Your cat senses your sadness and is showing love to cheer you up. How cute!
It's about unrequited love, being infatuated with someone who doesn't even care that you're alive...especially if you're a different or perhaps nerdy guy that looks like Thom.
this is the HYMN of all unrequited love.................................
I kind of have to give the title to the ultimate unrequitted love song to Pearl Jam's song called Black. That once you can just feel the anguish. Especially the MTV unplugged live version.@@Frk_Tamer
@@IAmGRX For me, I can't make you love me by Bonnie Raitt is still the most painful song I've ever heard about Unrequited Love.
@@tomcat9761 I'm surprised to see this song referenced, but it is truly a great song. Allowing yourself to feel that love, knowing the ultimate result. Been there.
That’s the whole crowd empathising, from the heart.

Agreed.. I'm 57 but this song takes me back to an emotional complicated time in my life. We are all a Creep at some point with someone.
Thom’s performance here is absolutely amazing. He must have really psyched himself up because he’s not faking.
Awwww. You’re a special lady. What a raw beautiful reaction.
It was about a girl he fell for at Uni who he never had a courage to approach until one night when drunk he told her how he felt and she ran away.

1 of the best song's ever written
That Cat feels your human feels
I too was bullied; from 1983 to 1995

I love this live version so much! Happy to see someone react to this instead of the studio version even though I love both.❤
My playlist in the 90’s was Alternative and Gangsta Music. Some Sad/Angry times but Fun😅
This is one of my favorite songs... thanks for you reaction, make me remember girl like you😁
Your cat is precious. 🐱🐈🐾

It's the difference between "you're so very special" and "you're so fucking special." You may never have heard the real song before.
Interesting how Postmodern Jukebox and Hayley Reinhard have completely changed the singing by changing the arrangement and style of singing!Totally different (sexy).

The performance, that's the "thing" you wanted to mention buddy... this version was overwhelmed with emotion and the desire to say every word.
This brings back memories. Very emotional song and his performance is... yes... special.
I’ve always loved that song and that specific video so much. Haunting.
You had the proper reaction to such a powerful performance. I think many of us musicians tear up for great performances. Also "creep" didn't always refer to a person making sexual advances. There was just a general category of someone other people would call a creep back then.
A true classic 😢
Yes they are soooou amazing, ooh yess 😂❤
Clicked on for Radiohead, stayed for the cat.
A girl in high school turned him down that was what he wrote the song about.
*This song has been done on so many music shows by contestants on X-Factor, The Voice, AGT, etc in various versions*

We are all different, but at same time similar. And that's what makes the world exciting.
The cat was feeling your emotions and trying to help you... that is what they do...

The story says that he is talking about a prostitute at a hotel. And people gives a different meanings.
6:03 😿The cat: Karen are you ok?
Thom: The man with iron lungs. Certainly not smoking 20 cigarettes a day.
Please reacts to the band "The Warning" from México The song is "Queen of the murder scene" or "enter sandman" kiss beautiful lady.

The only man in the 90s that was more stoned than Axl Rose on stage.
I just love Radioed ❤😂
Muse could only aspire to be a band as good as Radiohead. Incomparable.
Muse aren't the shine in radiohead's spit

aaaah the Pinkpop live version. This is easily the best version of Creep they ever did.

Your so cool and such a cutie , can’t believe anyone would Bully you . Your awesome and so amazing, never stop being you !
Karma police live at lollapalooza 25 is a great performance by radiohead
Shinedown - "Cut The Cord" 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
your hair!
IKR ????
Do more radiohead in general!
Very soft, gorgeous Millie
Thanks for reacting to Talking Heads - Creep. You're so nice 👏👏👏
The studio version is sonic perfection. Thom Yorke is my kinda creep.
I'm a metal fan this lady is not but she is something else "Eivør - Falling Free (Live at the Old Theater in Torshavn)" you will not regret
We're all creeps dear.
To me , Millie is special 😊 ! 🔊
Yeah I would date her. And I am picky.
t a vidéo a un super son ,merci pour nos oreilles 😍
Beautiful and highly competent people still make me feel unworthy and defeated. I don't think that gets better. If they're arrogant and inconsiderate, you can reject them back. They can stay as mirages, on the screen or the poster.
Emotional content is the real hook
You are special too Millie !
Adolescencia
The cat see your negative energy and try to comfort you😅
Amazing song! Some covers are even better!
The people in the crowd head banging and dancing know more of what this song means than anyone else. Think we've all felt like that weirdo creep outcast at some point. Those people in that crowd are surrounded by people that wont treat them in such terrible ways so they lets lose even to a such a troubling song
Bonita explicacion panita. I love your reactions. For years!. Even you gato loves it. B
Hitting on someone doesn't make a person a creep. If noone hit on anyone the human race wouldn't exist.
This is the best version of the song
Love your cat, and you 🥰
We all are same wierdo as you sis,,,,,keep growing❤❤
Your cat felt your emotion...❤
