"Creep (Acoustic)"

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fucking special
But I 'm a creep
I 'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here

She's running out again
She's running out
She run, run, run run
Run

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
I don't belong here.


personally I relate loads to Radiohead's music... they're quite possibly one of the best bands of all time in my book...

what do you guys think of them??

[Ewan Oozarmy]

Good live but a bit depressing.

[James Deuce]

Overrated proto-emo rubbish. Waste of publishing fees.

Don't make me say what I REALLY think.

[hospitalfood]

you ok mate ?

[kiwifruit]

i like a few of their songs :cool:

[judecatmad]

I LOVE Radiohead! They're sooooo good live too :)

Fake Plastic Trees was one I related to so much when my ex and I split up (and I still love the song, only now it's got a good vibe!), but Creep is one of my all time faves.

So many Friday nights were spent dancing away in my favourite Indie club in Manchester (5th Avenue) to this sort of music - some people call it depressing, but I find it quite the opposite :)

I guess to really appreciate it, you've maybe had to grow up with it - and Manchester was a real hub for the early Indie scene (not that Radiohead are a Manc band of course....). Hubby definitely doesn't understand my love of the genre, LOL

(James are my ALL TIME fave band, but Radiohead and Stereophonics are close behind!)

[hXc]

Over-rated.

[skelstar]

I love Radiohead. Nothing to do with what the sing about, just love the way it sounds. It strikes a chord with me ;)

So do the acoustic lyrics read different to the other version's lyrics CurAJ?

Madchester! 'Ave it. Great music scene up there. Where did you see Radiohead?

[judecatmad]

Madchester! 'Ave it. Great music scene up there. Where did you see Radiohead?

The MEN Arena (or whetever they changed its name to - will always be the MEN arena to me!).

Some of the best concerts I ever went to were at the Apollo tho - much smaller venue, but big enough to get the big names (the Levellers were GREAT there!!!! As were Stereophonics...and James....and the Charlatans...and the Saw Doctors and......oh...too many to mention!). God I miss concerts! Good bands that you could go and see on an almost weekly basis cos it didn't cost an arm and a leg and you could actually get tickets cos it wasn't a once-in-a-blue-moon event.

what do you guys think of them??

I turn the volume way up and still couldnt hear it.....:(

[judecatmad]

Jebus Christ what a depressing song! :blink:

Nah, it's not just about the words - it's the sound as well. The words are admittedly a depressing read but the song's great :yes:

[Ewan Oozarmy]

Jebus Christ what a depressing song! :blink:

At least Thome Yorke is eye candy for the girls

[nodrog]

what a happy go lucky tune .....

[judecatmad]

At least Thome Yorke is eye candy for the girls

:rofl: :rofl:

You a funny man!

[Curious_AJ]

aj love yourself

no one else will
actually I have quite a few people who love me :D and better things to do than to bother people who post inquiring threads about bands, and take those threads off topic...

omg... get out of my head!!!! I now love you lol.. fake plastic trees... so awesome.. i can spend all day listening to that one!

I love Radiohead. Nothing to do with what the sing about, just love the way it sounds. It strikes a chord with me ;)

So do the acoustic lyrics read different to the other version's lyrics CurAJ? nah, they're the same actually.. that's just the ones i decided to copy and paste into the thread as i was trying to play that version on guitar at the time.. lol...


I turn the volume way up and still couldnt hear it.....:(
aww... *gives you a hearing aid*

Jebus Christ what a depressing song! :blink:
yeah, its depressing to read as many have said.. but the actual song doesnt sound like it..

Nah, it's not just about the words - it's the sound as well. The words are admittedly a depressing read but the song's great :yes:
again, yeah... I like this kind of music.. the slow melancholy sound makes me happy... i dunno why...

:rofl: :rofl:

You a funny man!
he is.. but its actually true... he's a hotty... :love:

[hXc]

The acoustic version is the same as the original. G, Bm, C, Cm.
That's it. The whole way through.

[Goblin]

..and the Charlatans...OMG! I love The Charlatans! Would love to see then live.

AJ, have you ever listened to Morphine, Cure For Pain? I reckon it'd be right up your ally.:niceone:

[hXc]

AJ - If you're into really indie/acoustic stuff - then try out some City And Colour. Or Dallas Green (That's his name - which is a city and a colour). He's the guitarist in Alexisonfire, a hardcore band, but his solo work is beautiful. To make it easy, I'll link it.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=iUFArmnakwo - Casey's Song.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=2jF0TfuITLM&feature=related - Sometimes (I Wish).
http://youtube.com/watch?v=1VZcrGOBt34&feature=related - Day Old Hate.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=2J4ejr-zI4c&feature=related - Like Knives.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=VPBhiHEtPzQ&feature=related - Happiness By The Kilowatt. This one is a cover of his own song from Alexisonfire.

That should do it for now. The cd is brilliant, and I want to get the live dvd/cd which is where those clips have come from.

Now do Paranoid Android! LOL

[hXc]

Now do Paranoid Android! LOLNot familiar with it. I don't particularly like Radiohead. But every acoustic guitarist should know Creep. It's like the Smoke On The Water of acoustic haha!

[BarBender]

The reference in 'Creep' to the Hollies "The Air that I Breathe" is masterful.

[Magua]

Over-rated.

I agree.

Though I do like Radiohead, I own The Bends.

[The Pastor]

I agree aj, you don't belong here, log off and never come back!

[rainman]

AJ, have you ever listened to Morphine, Cure For Pain? I reckon it'd be right up your ally.:niceone:

Scanned past that and thought, yeah, the early Cure albums, that's the stuff.... then I read it again and thought, who? :(

If you like slow and melancholy there's little can beat the early Cure albums.

[El Dopa]

Overrated proto-emo rubbish. Waste of publishing fees.

Don't make me say what I REALLY think.

Yes dear, just dont tell indy!

[Curious_AJ]

oh, he knows... ever wondered why I'm so rough at times?


omg... exit song... is awesome...

[Mully]

what do you guys think of them??

Music to slit your wrists to in a warm bath. Never understood why people liked them.

Did anyone see the comedy show that did a cover of it called "Sheep"

"But I'm a sheep".

Don't remember which show it was but I nearly had a stroke watching it, I was laughing so hard.

[SlashWylde]

Don't like them. Whiny, boring and grossly overrated.
