I used to enjoy myself, way back then, annoying indie types by insisting that it was a very long way from being the best song called Creep released that year.
It is 'any good at all'. But it is not very good. Nor Radiohead in general. Anyone Can Play Guitar is better, but only because it features the line 'Comb my hair, I am Jim Morrison' - it's very important to comb your hair if you want to be Jim Morrison, but also that's a good lyric with genuine insight into youthful outsiderdom, whereas most of Yorko's VI-form poetry is not.
If you want to subvert creep for all time, sing it in a Johnny Rotten voice with the you and I reversed.
I have never heard a Radiohead album. I love "Creep." I don't think I've ever disliked a song called "Creep." Best Stone Temple Pilots song, if I recall correctly. Not best TLC song, though. But a good one.
it should be given bonus points for the best/worst song on the cd - people wont put it down in the previous entry as it aint there to prod their memorysticks
