"'''Creep'''" adalah singel ''debut'' oleh grup musik rok Inggris [[Radiohead]], dirilis pada 21 September 1992. Singel ini muncul pada album studio ''debut'' mereka, ''[[Pablo Honey]]'' (1993).

Lirik-lirik [[Thom Yorke]] mengekspresikan ketertarikan seksual yang obsesif dan merusak diri sendiri. Saat lagunya berpindah ke ''chorus'', {{ill|Jonny Greenwood|en}} mengeluarkan ledakan-ledakan suara gitar. Radiohead mengambil elemen-elemen dari lagu tahun 1974 "{{ill|The Air That I Breathe|en}}"; mengikuti tindakan hukum, {{ill|Albert Hammond|en}} dan {{ill|Mike Hazlewood|en}} diberikan kredit sebagai penulis-bersama.

Radiohead sebelumnya tidak berencana untuk merilis "Creep", dan merekamnya atas saran dari para produser, {{ill|Sean Slade|en}} dan {{ill|Paul Q. Kolderie|en}}, saat mereka mengerjakan lagu-lagu yang lain. Kolderie meyakinkan label rekaman mereka, [[EMI]], untuk merilis "Creep" sebagai sebuah singel. Singel ini pada awalnya tidak sukses, tetapi memperoleh pemutaran radio di Israel dan menjadi populer pada radio [[Musik rok alternatif|rok alternatif]] Amerika Serikat. Singel ini diterbitkan ulang pada tahun 1993 dan menjadi ''hit'' di seluruh dunia, disamakan dengan "''anthem-anthem'' {{ill|Pemalas|lt=pemalas|en|Slacker}}" rok-alt seperti <nowiki>''</nowiki>[[Smells Like Teen Spirit]]<nowiki>''</nowiki> oleh [[Nirvana (grup musik)|Nirvana]] dan <nowiki>''</nowiki>{{ill|Loser (lagu Beck)|lt=Loser|en|Loser (Beck song)}}" oleh [[Beck]].
<!--
Reviews of "Creep" were mostly positive, with critics likening it to the work of [[U2]]. EMI pressured Radiohead to match its success, which created tension during the recording of their second album, ''[[The Bends]]'' (1995). It is atypical of Radiohead's later work; the band grew weary of it, feeling it set narrow expectations of their music, and did not perform it for several years. Though they achieved greater commercial and critical success with later albums, "Creep" remains Radiohead's most successful single. It was named one of the greatest debut singles and one of the greatest songs by ''[[Rolling Stone]].'' In 2021, Yorke released a {{ill|remix|en}}ed version with synthesisers and [[Time stretching (audio)|time-stretched]] acoustic guitar.

Radiohead's debut release, the ''[[Drill (EP)|Drill]]'' EP, was released in 1992 by [[EMI]].<ref name=":43">{{cite journal |last1=Irvin |first1=Jim |author-link=Jim Irvin |last2=Hoskyns |first2=Barney |date=July 1997 |title=We have lift-off! |journal=[[Mojo (magazine)|Mojo]] |issue=45}}</ref> For their debut single, Radiohead hired the American producers [[Sean Slade]] and [[Paul Q. Kolderie]] and recorded at [[Chipping Norton Recording Studios]] in [[Chipping Norton]], Oxfordshire.<ref name=":43" /> They worked on the songs "Inside My Head" and "Lurgee", but without results.<ref name=":43" /> Between rehearsals, Radiohead spontaneously performed another song, "Creep", which the singer, [[Thom Yorke]], had written at [[Exeter University]] in the late 1980s.<ref name="postrockband">{{cite news |last=Marzorati |first=Gerald |date=1 October 2000 |title=The post-rock band |language=en-US |work=[[The New York Times]] |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2000/10/01/magazine/the-post-rock-band.html |access-date=28 July 2008 |issn=0362-4331}}</ref> Yorke jokingly described it as their "[[Scott Walker (singer)|Scott Walker]] song", which Slade and Kolderie misinterpreted; as they left the studio that night, Slade told Kolderie, "Too bad their best song's a cover."<ref name=":43" />

After further recording sessions failed to produce results, Kolderie suggested Radiohead record "Creep". Radiohead performed it one take, after which everyone in the studio burst into applause. After Radiohead assured Kolderie that "Creep" was an original song, he called EMI and convinced them to release it as the single.<ref name=":43" /> According to Kolderie, "Everyone [at EMI] who heard Creep just started going insane."<ref name=":43" />

The version issued for radio play replaces the line "so fucking special" with "so very special". Radiohead worried that issuing a censored version would be [[selling out]], but decided it was acceptable since their idols [[Sonic Youth]] had done the same thing; nonetheless, guitarist [[Jonny Greenwood]] said the British press "weren't impressed".<ref name="Kempf">{{cite web |author=Christi Kempf |date=7 June 1993 |title=The Radiohead Vision Creeps Onto Airwaves |url=http://www.greenplastic.com/coldstorage/articles/chicagosun.html |work=[[Chicago Sun-Times]]}}</ref> During the recording session for the censored lyrics, Kolderie convinced Yorke to rewrite the first verse, saying he thought Yorke could do better.<ref>Randall, p. 99</ref>

== Lyrics ==
Greenwood said the lyrics were inspired by a girl that Yorke had followed around and who unexpectedly attended a Radiohead performance.<ref name="Kempf" /> [[John Harris (critic)|John Harris]], then the Oxford correspondent for ''[[Melody Maker]]'', said "Creep" was about a girl who frequented the upmarket [[Little Clarendon Street]] in Oxford. According to Harris, Yorke preferred the more bohemian [[Jericho, Oxford|Jericho]], and expressed his discomfort with the lines "What the hell am I doing here / I don't belong here".<ref name=":43" />

Asked about "Creep" in 1993, Yorke said: "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. 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. 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."<ref>Sullivan, Jim. "Creep stumbles onto fame". ''[[The Boston Globe]]''. 8 October 1993.</ref> Greenwood said "Creep" was in fact a happy song about "recognising what you are".<ref name="Kempf" /> Yorke said he was not happy with the lyrics, and "thought they were pretty crap".<ref>{{Cite magazine |last=Kenny |first=Glenn |date=16 September 1993 |title=Radiohead arrive: meet the English rock crew behind 'Creep' |url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/radiohead-arrive-meet-the-english-rock-crew-behind-creep-188776/ |magazine=[[Rolling Stone]] |access-date=15 October 2020}}</ref>

== Composition ==
[[Image:Radiohead "Creep" ostinato.png|thumb|upright=1.591|[[Ostinato]] from Radiohead's "Creep" features [[modal mixture]], [[common tone (chord)|common tones]] between adjacent triads (B between G & B, C and G between C & Cm, see: [[chord letters]]), and an emphasis on [[subdominant]] harmony (IV = C in G major).<ref name="Capuzzo">Capuzzo, Guy. "Neo-Riemannian Theory and the Analysis of Pop-Rock Music", p.186–87, ''Music Theory Spectrum'', Vol. 26, No. 2, pp. 177–199. Autumn 2004. Capuzzo uses "+" to indicate major and "-" to indicate minor (C+, C-).</ref>{{Audio|Radiohead "Creep" ostinato.mid|Play}}]]

The G–B–C–Cm [[chord progression]] is repeated throughout the song, only alternating between [[arpeggio|arpeggiated]] chords in the [[verse (music)|verses]] and last [[refrain|chorus]] and loud [[power chord]]s during the first two choruses. In G major, these may be interpreted as "I–V7/vi–IV–iv".<ref name="Capuzzo" /> According to Guy Capuzzo, the [[ostinato]] musically portrays "the song's obsessive lyrics, which depict the 'self-lacerating rage of an unsuccessful crush'." For example, the "highest pitches of the ostinato form a prominent [[chromatic]] line that 'creeps' up, then down, involving [[scale degree]]s <math>\hat 5</math>– {{music|sharp}}<math>\hat 5</math>– <math>\hat 6</math>– {{music|flat}}<math>\hat 6</math>....[while] ascend[ing], the lyrics strain towards optimism... Descend[ing], the subject sinks back into the throes of self-pity ... The guitarist's fretting hand mirrors this contour."<ref>Capuzzo ibid. Also quotes Ross 2001, 118.</ref>

The [[Thirty-two-bar form|middle eight]] originally featured a guitar solo from Greenwood. When the guitarist [[Ed O'Brien]] pointed out that the chord progression was the same as the 1972 song "[[The Air That I Breathe]]", Yorke wrote a new middle eight using the same vocal melody. According to Greenwood, "It was funny to us in a way, sort of feeding something like that into [it]. It's a bit of change."<ref name="frontline">{{Cite journal |last=Nichols |first=Natalie |date=Fall 1993 |title=Creeping into the Limelight |journal=Fender Frontline |publisher=The Phelps Group |volume=11}}</ref>

When the song shifts from the verse to the chorus, Jonny Greenwood plays three blasts of guitar noise ("dead notes" played by releasing fret-hand pressure and picking the strings). Greenwood said he did this because he did not like how quiet the song was; he explained: "So I hit the guitar hard—really hard."<ref name="Kempf" /> O'Brien said: "That's the sound of Jonny trying to fuck the song up. He really didn't like it the first time we played it, so he tried spoiling it. And it made the song."<ref>[http://paulmcgarry.com/cdcatalogue/details/1465.html ''CD Inlay Archive''. 1993] {{webarchive|url=https://archive.today/20120629160328/http://paulmcgarry.com/cdcatalogue/details/1465.html |date=29 June 2012 }}</ref> Slade and Kolderie suggested that Greenwood add piano.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Daly|first=Rhian|date=8 April 2015|title=Radiohead: 10 Geeky Facts about 'Creep'|url=https://www.nme.com/list/radiohead-10-geeky-facts-about-creep-757425?amp|access-date=24 November 2020|website=NME}}</ref> During the final mix, Kolderie forgot to add the piano until the outro; however, the band approved of the result.<ref>Randall, p. 98</ref> According to the ''[[The Guardian|Guardian]]'' critic [[Alexis Petridis]], "Creep" has an "almost complete lack of resemblance" to Radiohead's later music.<ref name=":2" />

The "Creep" music video was filmed at the Venue, Oxford. For the video, Radiohead performed a free short concert, playing "Creep" several times. They donated proceeds from audience members to the Oxford magazine ''[[Nightshift (magazine)|Curfew]]'', which had covered their early work.<ref>{{Cite news|date=13 March 2016|title=Radiohead, Foals and 25 years of discovering Oxford music|language=en-GB|work=BBC News|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-oxfordshire-33176717|access-date=18 February 2021}}</ref> In the audience was the electronic musician [[Four Tet]], then a teenager, who later supported Radiohead on tour and collaborated with Yorke.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Monroe|first=Jazz|date=2015-11-08|title=Four Tet says he was in Radiohead's 'Creep' video|url=https://pitchfork.com/news/62006-four-tet-says-he-was-in-radioheads-creep-video/|access-date=2022-01-30|website=[[Pitchfork (website)|Pitchfork]]|language=en-US}}</ref>

The first tour we sold out, and our American tour manager was going, "You know, I’ve toured with bands who have been doing this for seven, eight years, and this isn’t usual." So it was really great on the one hand. But on the other hand we couldn't follow it up. The album had a couple of other songs that were OK, but we didn't have a body of work.

Towards the end of 1992, the Israeli DJ [[Yoav Kutner]] played "Creep" often on Israeli radio, having been introduced to it by an EMI representative, and it became a national hit.

[[Larry Flick]] of ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' wrote in his review of the reissue: "Minimal cut, boosted with just a touch of noise, relies mainly on an appropriately languid, melodic vocal (which also vaults into [[Bono]]-esque falsetto range) to pull the whole thing together.

According to O'Brien, the success of "Creep" meant that Radiohead were not in debt to EMI, and so had more freedom on their next album, ''[[The Bends (album)|The Bends]]'' (1995).<ref name="oral-history"/> The album title, a term for [[decompression sickness]], references Radiohead's rapid rise to fame with "Creep"; Yorke said "we just came up too fast".<ref>{{Cite magazine|date=February 25, 1995|title=Radiohead creeps past early success|url=http://www.greenplastic.com/coldstorage/articles/billboard22595.html|magazine=[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]}}</ref> [[John Leckie]], who produced ''The Bends'', recalled that EMI hoped for a single "even better" than "Creep" but that Radiohead "didn't even know what was good about it in the first place".<ref>Randall, p. 90</ref> Radiohead wrote the ''Bends'' track "[[My Iron Lung]]" in response, with the lines: "This is our new song / just like the last one / a total waste of time".<ref name=":1" /> Yorke said in 1995: "People have defined our emotional range with that one song, 'Creep'.
