Which version of Radiohead's "Creep" on TVUS do you prefer?  Queen Kimberly Nicole's exquisite PMJ-esque rendition from Season 8, Payge Turner's "creepy", raw and emotional Season 19 tour-de-force, or the sweet sibling harmonies of Season 21 winners Girl Named Tom?

 

p.s. - If anyone knows of a better, complete version of Payge's knockout, please kindly let me know/post a link. Thanks!

I’m gonna go with Kimberly tbh

 

I think Payge got the mood and lyrics of the song better but I prefer Kimberly as a vocalist.

Agree with you, re: Kimberly's vocals -- so crystal clear and cuts through the mix.  It was super close for me though, almost a tie between Kim and Payge -- the latter's emotional connection to the song really gets to me. In the end, gave the vote to Payge, but a bit of that was because I'm sorry I couldn't find a better video clip of her performance. I remember her opening being stunning, but it's sadly missing here.

Kimberly and it's not even close.

[Misirlou]

Payge, but I actually enjoyed the creativity of GNT's version.
