"CREEP" - PMJ studio version with HALEY

[john]

Kate Davis AATB looks to take the top spot as PMJ's most-viewed video in a couple days.

Projections for Creep? Third place on Feb-1. Second place on Mar-1. Top spot May-1.

Creep views have slowed in the past month. With the release next week, I assume, of a new PMJ video with Haley, I expect they will increase again. I'm not sure if Haley's new video will be nearly as strong as some of her others since she shares the stage with Puddles. We shall see. Of course, the video will also increase views on the #3 video, Royals feat. Puddles.

A @PMJofficial shoot generally requires 3-5 takes. Sometimes, I go with the very 1st one. "Creep" & "Story of my Life" were both 1st takes.

Agree 100%,today Creep still #15 but Mad World fall at #96 and never was on the top 10.IDK why because IMO the Haley's part sound very pretty¿May be the PPP part wasn't good?

FB comment from yesterday:

So I was at a bonfire a month or two ago, and a friend started playing this on his phone. I knew I recognized her voice so the following day I tried to find this video. I then realized that this was a friend/acquaintance of my sister's, and that she had performed on American idol... Anyways, here ya go.

FB comment:

I know the internet is blowing up over Prince's cover of Creep and I agree, it's great. I favor this one though:

Esquire provides background info about Prince's cover:

For years, Prince was aggressively protective of his 2008 Coachella cover of "Creep," removing any and all video footage or audio recordings that appeared online. His insistence in secrecy was so much to the point that Thom Yorke of Radiohead bemusedly asked, "He's blocked it? Hang on a moment. Well, tell him to unblock it. It's our ... song." But no longer. Yesterday, Prince tweeted out a link to a video of the performance on YouTube, seemingly giving his blessing and giving us a much-sought listen at the glorious, 8-minute cover.

Top YT comment at the moment:

I can see why he wanted it taken down. It's...terrible...

WOW, GET"S BETTER AS THE SONG GOES ALONG. SHE IS SOMETHING,LIKE GREAT.

Wow is right. I found this video posted within comments from an article on Prince's cover of this song. She blows it away along with the band. Best cover of this song that I've heard. Like finding a treasure!

A-mazing

Damn...

stunning vocals

The musicians are a very very talented lot...but that voice! It's like sweet velvet chocolate that is into bondage and would leave you robbed, gagged and bound in a motel 

definitely ASMR'ed on that one.. once again!

I just discovered PMJ and Haley- this is the most excited I have been about a band for a long time! Bloody talented musicians- the arrangements blow my mind. Every song is executed brilliantly. Transfixing really

BTW Creep will have 13 million views by Saturday. During November the # of views per day dropped back to the low 30Ks. With the release of her video with Puddles, views are back about 40K per day. But it looks like she won't quite reach 14 million by year. That may be due to the fact that Scott waited a long time to put this video up.

Haley has got to be one of the best vocalists that we've got to hear through American Idol. Wonderful music by Postmodern Jukebox.
