Is creep still Radiohead's most recognizable song?
- The “Indiscernible” Award — Pearl Jam. OK, so “indiscernible” is partially Pearl Jam’s honor because this comes off as something random Eddie decided to do when he was drunk onstage, and he is accordingly not quite understandable through all this.
- The “Eighth Circle Of Hell” Award — Korn. For a moment, I was almost dissuaded by Jonathan Davis’ heartfelt introduction to Korn’s acoustic cover of “Creep.”
- The “Celebrity Just Having Fun” Award — Jim Carrey. I had forgotten this happened, but: back in 2011, Jim Carrey made a surprise appearance at the Lower East Side bar Arlene’s Grocery and did a few songs, including Smashing Pumpkins’ “Bullet With Butterfly Wings” and what brought us here today, “Creep.”
- The “(Massive) Campfire Singalong” Award — Weezer. A few years back, Weezer held their Portland Hootenanny and invited a bunch of local musicians to come play with them.

Rivers Cuomo and his band are one such outfit you’d imagine to have been wholly affected by Radiohead and their alt-rock anthem. The group began their journies at similar times, and it’s hard to imagine that ‘Creep’ hadn’t infiltrated their musical lexicon. It seems fitting then that the group should deliver the kind of cover that you might expect ...
The gravel-toned soul singer Macy Gray may not be the first Radiohead fan you think of, but her take on the track for her album Coveredis one of the best around. Plumped up by Gray’s uncanny vocal, the song is rich with texture and somehow feels more authentic than any other cover on our list. When she sings these poignant lyrics, droning synths, a...
The late singer, performer, and all-around artistic juggernaut, Prince had an on-off relationship with the internet during his all too brief time with us. The artist, at moments, threw himself into the virtual world and, at others, found its lack of personality abhorrent. For years, the moment he and his illustrious band covered Radiohead’s mega-hi...
Sometimes, on very rare occasions, covers can make you forget the originals. Some covers become originals instantly, whether it is new instrumentation, a new perspective or a refreshed reflection after time. Think Nirvana’s cover of David Bowie’s hit ‘Man Who Sold The World’ or Jimi Hendrix’s take on Bob Dylan’s ditty, ‘All Along the Watchtower’. N...
Chrissie Hynde has always known a hit when she heard one. One of rock and roll’s unstoppable forces, with her band The Pretenders, she latched on to ‘Creep’ only a few years after it became a juggernaut hit. It’s a bold move that few without Hynde’s credentials could ever attempt. However, Hynde isn’t afraid of much, and the backlash of Britpop’s n...
- Scala & Kolacny Brothers, The Netherlands, 2010. What They Bring: Everything. It’s amazing, effervescent, peerless. The choir babes crush it, and the piano is perfect.
- The Pretenders, London, 1995. What They Bring: Chrissie Hynde, namely, an alt-punk angel who floats like a feather and whose skin makes us cry. Bonus Points: She is So.
- Homeless Mustard, New York, 2009. What He Brings: Real fucking pain to this real fucking painful song. He is, to most, an actual creep. Bonus Points: “I want you to notice when I’m not around.”
- Weezer, Portland, 2008. What They Bring: About 200 local fans and music-makers to give the otherwise morose song a rare joyful noise. Bonus Points: Making young people curse.
