Song of the Day #5,864: ‘Creep’ – Hildegard Von Blingen’

One of the great things about bardcore is it seems to work with just about any genre. So far this week I’ve shared 60s folk and rock and 00s electro-pop, and today we have a 90s alternative grunge track… and they all sound just beautiful.

Of course, most of the credit goes to Hildegard Von Blingen’, whose ethereal vocals bring an otherworldly majesty to any melody. I particularly like her take on Radiohead’s ‘Creep,’ a great song in any form that has never sounded this lovely.

When thou wert here before
I could not look thee in the eye
Thou art like an angel
Thy skin makes me cry
Thou float’st like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
Thou’rt so very special

But I am a creep
I am a weirdo
What in hell am I doing here?
I do not belong here

I care not if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want thee to notice
When I am gone
Thou’rt so very special
I wish I was special

But I am a creep
I am a weirdo
What in hell am I doing here?
I do not belong here

She runneth out the door
She runneth out
She run, run, run, run, run
Whatever makes thee happy
Whatever thou want’st
Thou’rt so very special
I wish I was special

But I am a creep
I am a weirdo
What in hell am I doing here?
I do not belong here
I do not belong here
