Conan covers “Creep”
Apparently, Thom Yorke and Conan O’Brien have more in common than the fact that they’re weirdly brilliant gingers. Now hopping cross-country on his “Legally Prohibited From Being Funny On Television Tour” with Team Coco, Conan whipped out an obnoxiously-accented version of the Radiohead grunge classic during soundcheck at one of his first shows on tour in Eugene, Oregon. (So, technically, it’s not a spoiler for his stop at the Midland on May 16.) This isn’t the first time that we’ve seen Conan cover “Creep” — you can check out other covers here, when Conan was waiting for the Writer’s Strike to die. To quote: “The most annoying thing I do is: I play my guitar.”
