Fritz Lang saw this shit coming.

Post-industrial alienation ... this is what my generation left for the next ones.

Every time I hear this song, it reminds me of SNL.  The one where Horatio Saenz, Jimmy Fallon,  and the rest do that cheezy Christmas song.

This is where my Beck-o-meter swings from "I like" right pass "tolerate" all the way to "no thanks".

What terribly dull song. No effort from the writer, even the singer sounds bored.

Give it time. Your brain needs a few listens to untangle this treasure trove of sounds to make sense of it.

I try to at least respect Beck from a creative standpoint, but I hear way more machine than instrument in most of his stuff.

I love the subtle nuances of the female voices sliding around, almost sounding like instruments/electronics. It's especially effective in a car stereo/on headphones ...Beck is a musical genius.

This is a relief. I've heard several Beck cuts here that I rather liked. I was afraid I was going to have to reconsider my position that he's basically over-rated at best and really, really irritating at worst.

Nope.

He still is.
