📌 UPDATE: Since I released this video a new song has been released that also uses the Creep chord progression... "Vampire" by Olivia Rodrigo. I made a little video about it here: https://youtube.com/shorts/OUE_DvJLaJk
📌Also, Mitski's 2023 track "My Love Mine All Mine" is another new song to use the Creep progression!
Creep by Radiohead is based on a simple but intriguing four chord loop. Today we'll take a look at the handful of other songs that use this same chord progression, and then we'll dig into why this chord progression works so well!
📍Here's my re-upload Chromatic Mediant video:
