were to listen to OK Computer right now, that would be the equivalent of a teen from 1997 listening to Exile on Main Street.
I know it's different album but for yrs every time I would hear Creep

I would think there was something about it that made me think of a song from the 70s (when I was a kid), but I couldn't think of what song.

Finally I did a search and found that Radiohead was sued by a songwriter over part of the melody. The song was "Air That I Breathe" that was a hit by the Hollies. Don't remember name of the songwriter but he had another hit with "It Never Rains in Southern California".

Radiohead lost the suit and had to pay royalties.
