Mimi and Josefin’s Stunning Creep Earns an Encore

Mimi and Josefin are only 15 and 13 when they sit down with piano and voice for Radiohead’s Creep. The sisters keep the arrangement simple, but the performance quickly grows into something much bigger, with a quiet opening, a powerful vocal, and a room that clearly does not want them to stop.

The arrangement stays deliberately simple. One sister sits at the piano while the other carries the vocal, and that gives the performance plenty of space.

The piano never crowds the singing. It keeps the opening gentle, then supports the bigger moments without turning the song into something overly dramatic.

That restraint pays off near the end of the first run.

Two Young Sisters, Two Clear Roles

Mimi is 15 and Josefin is 13, but the performance never feels like a novelty built around their age.

What stands out more is how naturally their roles fit together. The piano gives the song its shape, while the vocal handles the emotional lift.

There is no sense of either sister competing for attention. The arrangement works because both parts are necessary, and the connection between them keeps the performance grounded even when the song opens up.

Their age makes the control even more impressive, but the music is strong enough to stand on its own.

The first ending is where the clip takes a wonderful turn.

Cheers and applause break out, followed by several excited reactions. Then someone calls out:

“You belong here.”

It is such a warm response that it almost feels written for the moment. The song has just spent several minutes circling feelings of isolation and not fitting in, and the room answers with exactly the opposite.

A quick “Thank you” follows, but the audience is not ready to let the moment end.

The sisters start again.

The second run brings back that same gentle piano opening, but now the room already knows what is coming. The cheers return, the energy is looser, and the repeated cries of “Oh my god” make it clear how strongly the performance has landed.

Even the closing comment, “She’s a music nerd,” gives the whole scene a playful finish after all that intensity.

Radiohead’s original Creep has a much rougher edge, but Mimi and Josefin take the song somewhere softer.

Piano and voice strip away much of the weight of the original arrangement, leaving the melody and emotional tension exposed.

That family connection matters too. Two sisters are supporting each other through a song built around feeling out of place, and the warmth between them changes the way the performance lands.

A similar family dynamic appears in the O’Donnells’ bluegrass Lady Gaga cover, where relatives also reshape a familiar song through a very different arrangement.

The Encore Is the Part You Remember

The first performance would already be enough to make the clip work.

The encore is what makes it memorable.

The sisters finish, the room erupts, someone answers the song with “You belong here,” and then they are pulled straight back into the music.

That second chance changes the whole ending. What begins as a quiet piano cover becomes a shared moment between two young musicians and a room that clearly wants more.
