Actually, leeb, Buck Flashroy is correct....the song was written by Thom Yorke of Radiohead and originally released in 1992...check Wikipedia; this is what I found there...
"Creep" was the first single from the British rock band Radiohead and a track on their debut album Pablo Honey. When it was first released in September 1992, Radio 1 found it too depressing, and so after being aired only twice, it was taken off the station's playlist, but it subsequently became the band's biggest hit.
Thom Yorke explains the song saying that he wrote it while studying at Exeter University. It tells the tale of an inebriated man who tries to get the attention of a woman he is attracted to, by following her around. In the end, he lacks the self-confidence to pull it off. Although he usually referred to the drunken student in the third person, with no little contempt, sometimes outright denying it was him, he sometimes admitted it was.
Fine. Maybe Korn didn't write it, but they definitely inspired Thom Yorke through what's called "astral projection". That's something you won't find in Wikipedia, my friend.
aastraaalll projected rock.....now put all the toys back in the pram and play nicely......... radiohead and korn both rock differently but on the same planet....ours
Sorry to put a damper on the conversation but...Creep was originally written and recorded by Billy Strayhorn in 1949. It was re-recorded by Frank Sinatra in 1952 for his album "A Subtle Mood".
So Strayhorn astrally projected it onto Sinatra, who astrally projected it to Korn or Radiohead, or both, or neither....or to Oscar the Grouch or someone....

Do you care to explain what's happening in this clip? Is this a rehearsal?
Where i first met this song:

The eyes at 15 sec are quite creepy :|
Or were you just joking? It's so hard to tell when you can't hear tone of voice.
I saw Korn perform it on the teevee one night and they rocked it. Korn!
