Radiohead recorded “Creep,” which was released as a single in 1992. The song was the English band’s debut single and later became their best-known early hit.
“Creep” was written by Radiohead members Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Colin Greenwood, Ed O’Brien, and Philip Selway. Its quiet verses, explosive choruses, and distinctive guitar blasts helped it stand out from contemporary alternative rock.
The song initially performed modestly in the United Kingdom but became a major international success after reissue. It appears on Radiohead’s 1993 debut album, Pablo Honey. The track should not be confused with songs of the same title by Stone Temple Pilots or TLC.
