Thom Yorke has described Prince's cover of Radiohead's 'Creep' as "hilarious".

The frontman has said that clips of the track should be allowed back on YouTube.

All clips from Prince's performance at last month's Coachella Festival (April 26) have been taken down from the video-hosting website after a request by Prince's record label NPG.

Speaking to Associated Press, Yorke responded to the news it had been blocked by saying: "Really? He's blocked it? Surely we should block it. Hang on a moment. Well, tell him to unblock it. It's our ... song."

Thom Yorke, u r HILARIOUS!!!he sounds so unamused....everyone made a big deal of it, when he, as well as so many Radiohead fans know, creep isn't their best song....I never saw the appeal of Prince....he seems like a cocky bastard.

Radiohead are Radiohead. No one does their songs better them. Few people write better songs than them. Prince (or whatever he's called) included. Korn are about 1000 times not as good as Radiohead. Fact.
