Radiohead's setlist for their 2016 A Moon Shaped Pool tour continues to evolve and shake up each and every night, with their latest show in Paris featuring rare outings of not only 'No Surprises' and 'True Love Waits', but their much maligned hit 'Creep'. Check out footage from the show below. 

Pretty much universally acclaimed by critics (especially us, we love it so much), Radiohead's new album A Moon Shaped Pool has proven to be one of the finest surprises of 2016 so far (hear it for yourself online for free here).

But of course, they can't just leave it there - their tour itself was only ever going to be unpredictable. The first two nights of the tour saw the setlist shake up pretty dramatically from night to night, and they threw in a few more fan favourites and gems last night - including the rarely played 'Creep'. 

"We sucked Satan’s cock," frontman Thom Yorke once said of writing 'Creep'. "It took a year-and-a-half to get back to the people we were… to cope with it emotionally."

It's no wonder they've not played it since 2009.  

Not only that, but the band also gave 'True Love Waits' its first full band performance since 2006 - after it was beautiful reworked and recorded for the new album... 

And here they are playing OK Computer classic 'No Surprises' for the first time since 2009...
