"Creep"

It remained at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for four weeks, and became one of the biggest hit songs of 1995, winning the Grammy award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals.

The lyrics are told from the point of view of a woman who knows that her man is cheating on her and in turn cheats on him. A cover version of the song was released by alternative rock band The Afghan Whigs.
