The Reviews about Creep (page 12/ 28)
------ performed by Radiohead


The song has been made into a movie under the same title.... | Reviewer: ads | 4/12/08

Hard to say to RH really meant, but The Creep (a horror movie made two or three years ago) fully conveys the idea. The director seems to have got the message right.... There is more to it than the eye can see...



from somewhere | Reviewer: typo | 4/7/08

It's one thing to write a song about a specific situation, but completely another how it is performed for and perceived by the public.

It's a very simple song about a love that's not going to happen. More important subject here is why it is not going to happen.

Thom's singing here is absolutely out of this world and the emotion he shows is on the most basic level - feeling inadequate to make a step over to an adjacent but fundamentally different world from the one he lives in so he can be and feel closer to the girl he likes.

Having this in mind, most people at sometime in their life feel they are inadequate to step out of their comfort zone to get something they need or want. If I liked a girl who hangs around mathematics geniuses, I would certainly feel like a creep because I suck at math. :)

Unfortunately, that's the society we live in, division among people all over the place. Instead of trying to make the world we live in inclusive for everybody, natural tragedy of human beings is to be divided.

It's easy to say "fyck it all" and not even think about it, but that's for idiots. People with actual feeelings notice it and try to say something about it. This song tries.



Oh the crap we put ourselves through | Reviewer: K in Calgary | 4/4/08

Folks, let's stop and think here for a moment...He's not a creep and he knows it! Simply, he's being mind fucked by, yet another girl who herself, is aware of how insecure she really is, but is lucky enough to have physical "beauty" to hide behind. She runs from a good situation from guy who offers his everything. His everything, is not the problem, rather his poor choices in life of before, who made him the man he is today - someone who sells himself short and is willing to take less, but cannot escape his primal desire to attach himself to damaged goods is uncompromised by his own shallowness & his own insecurity.

He feels like a Creep, because control and perfection, although never really 100% attainable, upsets him from within since his series of choices in life has brought him so far away from where he knows he could be. However, he never really executed control of what he knows he could.

Controlling a girl like the one in the song only represents his own life and really doesn't have to do with the girl at all. The girl is a purposeful decision to only reaffirm his lack of happiness. He pursues what he doesn't even want but goes down the path of most resistance to emphsize his victimized lifestyle - that he himself is entirely responsible for.

We're all victims of something and some of us are more victimized than others, but it all is what it is. What the hell am I doin here - I dont belong here is everyone's motto in a world where we all try to find happiness from someone else rather than finding inner peace first and foremost.

But it is always seemingly easier to find temporary pleasure from a pre-determined outcome of pain and suffering. "Creep", I suppose we are when we purposefully pursue more suffering intentionally. The girl does play the role well, but that's what he wants, and his own displeasure in himself is made ever-so-clear when the girl he pursues makes good on what he knows that she will do...Run! Of course, she's going to run, shes been running all her life, ever since the Pain started to really hurt! And now his pursuit, which is really about running away from his true self, has never be so real as it is now.

Hopefully, you like this take on the song...

We are all so very special, just try to remember where that person is and I promise you, everything will work out! Namaste.



The meaning | Reviewer: fee | 3/31/08

Yeah, I know a lot about anorexic,too, and these are typical sentences for this topic... But I also agree about the 'obvious meaning' of the songtext: A boy who loves a girl and thinks he is not good enough for her...something like that. But these two meanings (the anorexic one and the love-topic) may be connected. Anyway; beautiful song!! <3
[sorry for the bad english^^ ]



Love it | Reviewer: Amy | 3/30/08

I love this song to pieces.
And I have to say I agree with Fee about the anorexia bit with the lyrics, "I don't care if it hurts, I wanna have control, I want a perfect body, I want a perfect soul." Anorexia is about control and some would say having the "perfect body." My sister is a recovering anorexic and all the therapists she sees all say it's about the same thing, it's about control. So that's what I think that part of the song is about, but as for the rest of the song, I would imagine it's about a guy fantasizing over a girl, thinking she's too good for him, etc., the obvious meaning anyway.



Creep | Reviewer: Helterskelter | 3/27/08

Of course it doesn't hold a candle to their later, more experimental work, but it's a nice little 4-minute song, no? And yeah, the guitar crunches was Jonny trying to sabotage a song he didn't like. Much improved it, imo.



What the hell is going on here? | Reviewer: broy | 3/27/08

A friend of mine made a cd with about 15 different versions of this song on it. There were versions of it as a ballad, hard rock, soft dreamy, a sort of night club (think Sinatra) version. I listened to it over and over and over. I just loved it. I couldn't help but wonder, how does a simple song like this get recorded by so many artists in so many different ways. I never hear it on the radio or hear anybody talking about it.

Then, last week I got another CD with 15 more different versions, including an a capella version.

What the hell is going on here?



The Right Thing... | Reviewer: Suicidal Hates | 3/27/08

First... This song explains how the guy feels bout being with that "So fucking special" girl. He feels like a creep, probably cause he has low self esteem and dont know why she's with him. It is EVIDENT... He probably thinks the girl is too perfect "or special" for him, and he disses himself in a song. LOL.



awesome <3 | Reviewer: fee. | 3/27/08

Yeah, I've read an article about this,too...And I agree- Beautiful accident! But what is about the anorexia-backround of this song? Does anybody agree?^^ I'm not sure, so I'm searching for someone who know more about the meaning of that woderful song!



guitarr | Reviewer: harleigh | 3/24/08

this song is amazing in itself

but what really really makes the song for me
is that guitar
