Her version of āCreepā is actually my least favorite, because I feel she really needed to do more with the lyrics. āWeirdoā makes no sense in an old-fashioned sense, as āweirdā means āfateā, often āultimate fateā as in āyour deathā, but also in the sense of āprophetā or āfortune tellerā. I am creep, I amā¦ fated to die? I am a reader of entrails? I amā¦ what? I donāt get it. These donāt mesh at all with the song.
Thatās not to say I donāt like her music. I do! Iām a huge fan! My favorite is actually āPumped Up Kicksā for doing exactly what I said āCreepā doesnāt do and translating a school shooter into a Welsh archer defending against an English invasion forceā¦ āI doth gaze upon the fyrd and I maketh a planā where āfyrdā is an Anglo-Saxon army. Itās brilliant.
