The “Creep” That Beat Radiohead and STP

MUSIC THAT MATTERS – “Lyric of the Day”

(Music Cut 1 — opening groove of “Creep”)

February 11, 1995.

For the third straight week,
the No. 1 song in America
was called…

“Creep.”

Not Radiohead.
Not Stone Temple Pilots.

(Music Cut 2 — verse settles in)

TLC’s “Creep.”

Released right around the same time
as those other two songs with the exact same title.

But out of all three?

TLC’s was the biggest —
four weeks at No. 1.

(Music Cut 3)

And that groove heard –
They sampled Slick Rick’s
“Hey Young World.”

LYRIC OF THE DAY:
“Don’t mess around with my affection.” — TLC
