More on Creep
Description from Wikipedia:
"Creep" is a song by the English alternative rock band Radiohead, written by vocalist Thom Yorke. Radiohead released "Creep" as their debut single in 1992, and it later appeared their first album, Pablo Honey (1993). During its initial release, "Creep" was not a chart success. However, upon re-release in 1993, it reached number seven in the United Kingdom and number two on the Billboard Hot Modern Rock Tracks in the United States. The band began to dislike the song, as fans attended their early gigs primarily for the performance of "Creep". As the band began to shift from the post-grunge style of Pablo Honey to more experimental alternative rock during the mid-to-late 1990s, "Creep" was played less frequently at gigs and in 1998, the band dropped the song from setlists altogether. It would not be played live again until 2001, and has since appeared sporadically in the band's live sets. "Creep" is regarded by many as one of Radiohead's biggest hits, and has been used in various media as well as having been covered by a number of musical artists.
