babblement on 'CREEP'


Radiohead is definitely one of my favorite bands
mainly because of their one-of-a-kind sound
and i always loved the lyrics that thom yorke writes
sometimes they include political issues, sometimes more personal issues so on so on..
and the lyrics are always somehow philosophical
i bet thom yorke has a different brain structure from other human beings

this song that i'm going to talk about, creep, in my opinion
was the most 'normal' song by Radiohead
but somehow it was considered controversial to the public
the parents(not realizing that their opinions don't count..) thought
this song made kids who feel different slit their wrists and hang themselves
and some music fans who knew one thing and not the other
claimed that they were disappointed in Radiohead for releasing a song like
'creep' because they thought it was too commercial and un-Radiohead.

on the other hand, some stupid fans claimed that Radiohead was only
mocking the music industry by releasing a very commercial and approachable song
honestly people, there're better ways to mock the industry...
and thom yorke knows better

What I Think is that this song is the truest at heart out of all the
great songs Radiohead had produced
not because it says 'i'm a creep i'm a weirdo' but because
when you're exhausted from pointing out all the crap that's going on
in the world and what you find ironic, you just gotta let it out and
speak up for the shallowest part in your heart
maybe they were taking a break from being philosophical and metaphoric
maybe they are really creeps and weirdos and don't feel that they belong

people take music too seriously when they aren't supposed to
if you can't accept music for what it is and you just have to say crap about it,
maybe you shouldn't listen to music in the first place
seriously, why all this controversy and shit-talking about
just another song! if you don't like it, don't listen to it!
if you're gonna listen to it, SHUT THE FUCK UP!
