the butterfly effect thread - what if Radiohead's "Creep" had not been written

u go back in time one day on a drunken bender. you're at a karaoke bar and someone is wrenching the fuck out of Radiohead's already awful "Creep" and it puts u in such a foul mood that u have the time travel coordinator guy send u back to the day Radiohead wrote that song (which u inexplicably know from memory), u go to Thom's flat, and u tell him the song sucks. u return home to realize the song does not exist.

how else has life changed due to that monumental, irresponsible move?

Bass player Colin Greenwood stays a member of my pub quiz team for longer.

Hard to say, to me "Creep" is like The Air That I Breathe.

More payola behind "Stop Whispering". The guy at karaoke is now going "start SHOUUUUUUUUUUUUU", everything is much worse.

Pulp swipe the chord progression to 'Help the Aged' from 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' instead.

I think Thom would have joined the Grateful Dead

Thom would hate himself a little less.

('Creep' rules btw.)

Radiohead peters out by 1995, a decade later Thom is a hated poster on an obscure message board where he posts while killing time at his job as a university administrative assistant.
