Useless Information

Did you know that the song "Creep" de Radiohead has a huge following in the Pro-Ana/Mia community...(pro-ana/mia is a campaign mostly via the internet that supports anorexia and bulimia...includes blogs, tips, and photos of emaciated women in the fashion and entertainment industry as "thinspiration"-or, motivation to stay thin.) As it turns out, many people who suffer from anorexia and bulimia usually have REALLY low self-esteem, and usually live by a code to achieve "perfection". This would explain their embracing of the lyrical content within the song. A few websites include the lyrics to this song somewhere within the site, usually with the line "I wanna have control, I wanna perfect body, I wanna perfect soul" either highlighted or quoted.
Also, the song Creep was supposedly covered by the almighty Prince at a concert, where it turned out that someone happened to be recording this rendition. It became an underground internet sensation, as it was supposedly a very interesting performance of the song. Radiohead even praised it. As soon as it was apparent that there was something featuring Prince that he wasn't makin a ton of dough from, Prince got pissy and had it pulled from everything on the interwebs. I never even got to hear it, and I'm kinda pissed at Prince for being an asshat about it.
