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.
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.
