At a recent concert in Denver, Lana Del Rey revealed that she could be forced to remove the song “Get Free” from her new album Lust for Life due to Radiohead’s lawsuit claiming that the song ripped off their hit “Creep.”
The singer revealed the possibility during a concert Sunday night in Denver, also stating that the band want 100% of publishing for the track.
Del Rey called “Get Free” her “statement song” and “personal manifesto,” and discussed the lawsuit before performing a medley according to Consequence of Sound. “I just want to let you know,” she said. “Regardless if it gets taken down off of everything, that those sentiments that I wrote… that I really am going to strive for them, even if that song is not on future physical releases of the record.” She then played a portion of “Change,” which she also said is a very personal song for her, into a medley.

Lana Del Rey is claiming that Radiohead is suing her for ripping off their hit “Creep.”
She tweeted, “It’s true about the lawsuit. Although I know my song wasn’t inspired by Creep, Radiohead feel it was and want 100% of the publishing – I offered up to 40 over the last few months but they will only accept 100. Their lawyers have been relentless, so we will deal with it in court.”
Radiohead believe Del Rey’s song “Get Free” ripped off “Creep.” Listen to both songs below.
