Jonny Greenwood said the song was in fact a happy song about “recognizing what you are”. It is one of the things I’m always trying: To assert a sexual persona and on the other hand trying desperately to negate it.
To actually assert yourself in a masculine way without looking like you’re in a hard-rock band is a very difficult thing to do… It comes back to the music we write, which is not effeminate, but it’s not brutal in its arrogance. I have a real problem being a man in the ‘90s… Any man with any sensitivity or conscience toward the opposite sex would have a problem. When asked about “Creep” in 1993, Yorke said:
In the end, he lacks the self-confidence to face her and feels he subconsciously is her. Solid playthrough and very little surface noise, on this copy at least, and only then between tracks.According to Thom Yorke, “Creep” tells the tale of an inebriated man who tries to get the attention of a woman to whom he is attracted by following her around. The sound quality is clean yet punchy and dynamic, sounds true to the era, and just overall fantastic. No way to weigh the record, but it's an obviously sturdy 180g at least and plays nice and flat. I've seen wide range of visual quality on these records through the Discogs FB group, and am glad to say I lucked out on a beautiful copy, one of the better splatter records I've purchased in a while actually, to be relatively simple and all. Finally came across a copy in-store, being the classic that it is, and a personal favorite from the era, the choice to drop the 21 bucks on this was a no brainer.
