Creep by Radiohead is featured in Guilty Pleasures, the seventeenth episode of Season Four. It is sung by Brody and Rachel. 

After Brody and Rachel finally reveal to each other their backstories, Brody being a prostitute and Rachel having slept with Finn and using Brody as a rebound, they finally admit that their relationship is over as the song begins. Rachel walks out of the room, crying as Brody starts to sing. In the hallway, he watches her walk down, looking guilty. In the NYADA classroom, Rachel cuddles herself as she sings, watching the class perform ballet, then getting up, walking through them with determined eyes. The two are then seen alone in separate rooms, singing along. Back at the New York apartment, Brody is singing the song while Rachel sleeps and Rachel sings back as he sleeps. Towards the ending of the song, the two are running hurriedly through the hallways of NYADA as they sing with emotion. In the auditorium of NYADA, together they finish off the duet with microphone stands and wearing formal clothes. The lights on the stage close as both Rachel and Brody look hurt. 

Lyrics[]

Brody:
When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry

Rachel:
Oh, you float like a feather
In a beautiful world
Oh I wish I was special
You're so very special
Oh

Brody and Rachel:
But I'm a creep,

Rachel:
I'm a creep

Brody:
I'm a weirdo

Rachel:
I'm a weirdo

Brody:
What the hell am I doing here?

Rachel:
What the hell am I doing here

Brody and Rachel:
I don't belong here

Rachel:
Oh
I don't care if it hurts, mmm,
I wanna have control, oh, oh,
And I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul

Brody and Rachel:
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so very special
I wish I was special

Rachel:
Oh

Brody and Rachel:
But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.
Oh

(Brody: She's) (Rachel: He's) running out the door
(Brody: She's) (Rachel: He's) running out
(Brody: She's) (Rachel: He's) run, run, run,
Run...
Run...

Rachel:
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want

Brody and Rachel:
You're so very special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here

Rachel:
Mmm

Brody and Rachel:
I don't belong here

Trivia[]

  • The auditorium used in this song is performed in more closely resembles the auditorium at William McKinley High School than the one at NYADA. We can clearly see the stage comparison to the one the New Directions use to rehearse and they have just added gold banners. The NYADA auditorium would be the one where Love Song took place. However, at performing arts schools like NYADA, it is not unlikely to have more than one auditorium.
  • The placing on stage and dress (all black) of Rachel and Brody alludes to The Scientist which was Rachel's last break-up song. Whether or not this was done on purpose is not known.
  • Rachel was supposed to sing this song as a solo, but they decided to add Brody, "who is a little bit of a creep."
  • This is Brochel's last duet and Brody's last song on the show.

Mistakes[]

  • During the dialogue before the song starts, Brody is seen with a nasty cut above his eyebrow, but when the song begins, it has vanished.
