There are few performers as mesmerizing as Prince. Back in 2008, only those lucky enough to be in attendance at Coachella that year were able to see The Purple One play in the desert, because any videos posted to YouTube or anywhere have been swiftly taken down. During his set, he covered Radiohead's "Creep," which of course prompted many to ask frontman Thom Yorke​ about the cover. According to Consequence of Sound, when Yorke was asked what he thought about Prince blocking the song from YouTube some years ago, he replied, “Really? He’s blocked it? Well, tell him to unblock it. It’s our … song.”

Prince has finally conceded to Yorke and tweeted out a direct link to the video. There is definitely no copyright infringement here as the user who uploaded it notes, “Copyright reserved to RADIOHEAD, the original authors of this song, who have granted me permission to upload this video through the above remarks. Needless to say, no copyright infringement intended.” Watch the awesome performance above.
