That's actually the one I don't have, need to pick that up.

I love Mellow Gold, despite Loser being so overplayed. His lyrics and music just felt weirder and scrappier, a great mix of folk, hip-hop and punk. I really love the Information too.

Odelay, then Sea Change...

Sea Change.

I think Midnight Vultures got the most play for me, probably followed by Mutations.

Midnight Vultures and The Information.

hmm, I can't choose between Mutations, Sea Change and Odelay. I play Mutations the most.

sea change is my favorite album, but i wouldn't say my favorite songs are on that album, if that makes sense. of all his albums, i like listening to sea change from beginning to end the most. i don't think the parts are as great as the whole, though.

if there were a "what are your favorite beck songs" thread, there probably wouldn't be any from sea change.

i can't answer that. i love every album for different reasons.

i play Midnite Vultures and Guero the most.

Mutations and Guero.

All I own is Odelay and The Information, so of those two my fave is the former.

It's not that The Joker's gay. What he is, is Batsexual. He'd be whacking it to Batsy whether our hero had girl parts or boy parts underneath that rubber.

lots of mutation love on this thread. i never really gave that album a lot of thought. it's pleasant enough, but i remember at the time it came out, it felt like a "stopgap" album to me...just a modest collection of tropicalia-style ditties to hold us over until the next big noisy crazy "official" beck album. maybe i should go back and give it a bit more love. the few times i've let myself sit through the whole thing, i wasn't put off by it at all...

"sea change" all the way. although i love midnite vultures, guero and mutations
all just about as much. it's just that sea change has a special overall vibe to
it and an honesty that makes it impossible to not chose it as my fav.

Bottle Of Blues.

oh, and to make "sea change" even more sublime, add on the japanese
bonustrack "ship in a bottle".

i must have listened to "ship in a bottle" over 1,000 times and it's
still such a beautiful song.



ps: shut it cloudy

But then again, who knows how many hours I've spent in my life listening to "Mutations" as well. It's one of those records where I really don't even remember the track titles, but that I can sing all the way through.

Nobody has said "Modern Guilt" yet? "Stereopathetic Soulmanure" anyone?
