I love Beck. He is nuckin futs. He is an absolutely amazing musician that incorporates every style of music known to man in his music. Continually amazing me time after time. This man has pumped out tons of music in his time.
It may just be that I'm a huge fan of anything funk, but Beck kills this track. It's such a grand representation of his amazingly creative sound, and easily one of his best songs. In my opinion it's an easy top 3 pick. Behind only "Where It's At" and "Loser".
"Also, Beck's dancing reminds me a little bit of Mick Jagger." I was seriously hoping somebody else was going to bring this up. It's not just his dancing though. It's his whole presence in this video.
I saw this tour at Radio City Music Hall on Valentine's Day. The stage set was a huge, heart-shaped, rotating bed with red satin sheets on it. LOL. Beck got up on it and break-danced. Popped and locked and threw those sheets all over the stage.
Really can't think of a better musician, composer, lyricists than Beck. The guy can be funky, funny, and poignant all in the same breath. And he's really inspired by the lack of sex laws in Hong Kong.
Best track from Midnite Vultures. Weird but mesmerizing video. Beck should've won for Odelay, but I'm glad he won for Morning Phase. Congratulations Beck! :-)
I love the basist at 2:10 ! I remember in 1999 listening to this great track on repeat after repeat after repeat. How can a man be so innovative and always fresh as Beck? That's a mystery even to me.
The look on E.T. ruler's face is brilliant... he realizes his time has come to an end. Was it all for nothing? He would weep if only his species had tear ducts. It was a true artist that painted that on there.
I remember why I loved college student life now. I'm kind of depressed now....! Its not just my age, its something else. Anyone feel the same way about today's world? The early 90s-2000 was the happiest time of my life. I'm so glad Beck was there!
There was a feeling of freedom an optimism that's missing now.. it wasn't all nihilistic like today. There was less emphasis in the news on bad things, where now its bad all the time. There was also this new thing called the net and and anarchic spirit that's just missing from today
@@bigmouthstrikesagain4056 That's because we've seen the worst of humanity by this point in hd, some have seen worse than others. It's probably going to be even worse for Gen A since they've grown up with the internet since literally day one.
Nah. I'm the same age. I get what you mean, but that's just an excuse. it depends on where you look. If you WANT to feel nihilistic and hopeless, there are plenty of people ready to make a buck on selling you that feeling.
fernando perdomo Thank you so much, I was wondering who the hell that was and would've never figured it out if you hadn't of mentioned it. I came here with vague memories of Jack Black running around crazily and what caught my eye this time was that guy in a cape and the wrist band seals the deal.
There's something about nonsense that attracts people. Beck is definitely the Lewis Carroll of pop music, but his attitude transcends the farces of the past with his huge range of musical influences.
Dude I remember them announcing the debut of this on MTV I was glued to the TV waiting for it. Video gave me chills lol I was freakin obsessed with Beck back in the day lol I was a mellow gold era listener. 😎
i just wanted to point out that at 0:53 that's not actually a live fridge dancing around. If you look carefully you can see the guys feet.... there's a man inside there. It's not actually a living, supernatural fridge. It's just a fake fridge with a guy inside. Just wanted to point that out.
Don't be so gullible. The "man inside" disguise has been fooling weak minded people for decades. I bet you actually believe that there was actually a small human inside R2-D2...
Today's pop stars can wear meat dresses, ride naked on wrecking balls and sing songs about S&M all they want, but Beck will always be the guy whose video featured a fridge making sweet love to an oven, and nothing can top that.
Wish the new stuff was this bad ass. The production is solid but this album is one of the all time greatest period. A sonic journey of hyper intelligence tied in with genre breaking bending and connecting goodness. Absolute classic.
I know this is not Beck's most popular album (Sea Change), but this is a fun song! The Jack Black cameo is great, and who doesn't like a refrigerator giving it to an oven? Whether you're into guys or girls, if you're getting a good piece a$* at the end of the day ... Life is not that bad. Sexx Laws
I was listening to this album at work last night and now it's bringing back memories of when it was released. My brother and I got it on cassette tape(neon green) 😅 and we played the shit out of it in his 1986 Toyota Camry. Riding around tripping fuckin balls on acid or shrooms. I wonder what the fuck we looked like from the outside. I just remember being in the backseat buggin to all the sounds. Good fuckin times indeed
Saw him in Vancouver at the 'Plaza of Nations' for the 'Midnight Vultures' tour and the performance was really close to the video. You could sing along cause he didn't stray too far from the album track, energetic. I'll never forget that night. Thanks for taking me Nat.
When this clip came out I was fascinated by its zanyness, though for an italian 12 years old it was hard to understand the lyrics. IT still rocks today, thanks Beck!
Bass line is amazing.
Love Beck
“I want to write a book about angels; I want angel answers.” Cracks me up every time.
Same.
"I am an anger swallower and I want to fly." did it for me.
Yep. 😂😂😂
There's no way that character isn't just another dimension's Big Money Salvia Fatstacks

Believe it or not there once was a time when MTV used to show awesome music videos like this one.
Got my day dude!
That was long ago.
MTV still alive?
Remember Blur’s Video for Coffee and tv?
“What a time to me alive” -Frostillicus
And the song begins with a bang!!
🤭😌😊🥲😆😂🤣😋🙃😝
Is Kenny G playing or just a joke?
I love Beck. He is nuckin futs. He is an absolutely amazing musician that incorporates every style of music known to man in his music. Continually amazing me time after time. This man has pumped out tons of music in his time.
This man has never made a bad album.
....somebody hasn't listened to Colors....
Josh Polak, not his best. But it’s alright.
his first and last two are pretty shaky
@@ed209onthestairs Colors doesn't sound like Beck, but its hella catchy.
I don't like sea changes
Love how he incorporates brass and sax in his music.
With banjo and slide guitar.
No band can beat Beck in originality, artistic and funny all in one with an awesome groove.
Agreed. He goes up there with Mr. Bungle and Ween.
get me the Becktionary. No, the rhyming Becktionary!
😂😂
+DemonDanny WAWAW
***** Futurama!!! Great T.V.
Unabridged?
Bendin' in the Wind!
Beck is like a magician. Gets his top hat and pulls a musical rabbit. Sheer perfection.
"That song doesn't usually last three hours, but we got into a serious thing and then I forgot how it ended"

de javu man!
usually the ear worm comes in the middle of the song and I try to play it back from the beginning to make sense of it.
Damn it! You beat me to it...by two years!
And someone else beat them to it by a year :D I expect buried deep in these comments we'll find an even earlier example if we were willing to try ;)
beck and special guest... BENDER THE BROKEN ROBOT
Google AI and learn about the latest fad of having robots for girlfriends.
Last episode of strangers with candy for me 🙂 ok 2nd time🤗
It may just be that I'm a huge fan of anything funk, but Beck kills this track. It's such a grand representation of his amazingly creative sound, and easily one of his best songs. In my opinion it's an easy top 3 pick. Behind only "Where It's At" and "Loser".
Zach Litchman
You can tell a genuine artist 1000 miles away and Beck is the real deal
Beck isn't just ahead of his time, he's from an alternate dimension.
That may be the best music video I've ever seen
Beck's Two turntables was until I seen this.
Jack Blacks performance at the start of this video is perfection 😁
And at the end too. Booyah!
@@ronniemarion8456 i picked cotton!
I wish all music videos were like this.
Also, Beck's dancing reminds me a little bit of Mick Jagger. Pretty damn hot...
"Also, Beck's dancing reminds me a little bit of Mick Jagger."
I was seriously hoping somebody else was going to bring this up. It's not just his dancing though. It's his whole presence in this video.
Agree with you both... love when a man moves~!
It's called McSwagger, yo!
:) Agreed! Me too... fun fun!
He is practically doing a mating dance.
I saw this tour at Radio City Music Hall on Valentine's Day. The stage set was a huge, heart-shaped, rotating bed with red satin sheets on it. LOL. Beck got up on it and break-danced. Popped and locked and threw those sheets all over the stage.
Something about the way that Jack Black says, “I picked cotton,” gets me every time.😄🤙
Really can't think of a better musician, composer, lyricists than Beck. The guy can be funky, funny, and poignant all in the same breath. And he's really inspired by the lack of sex laws in Hong Kong.
The lyrics are soo good, such a wicked song
Best track from Midnite Vultures. Weird but mesmerizing video. Beck should've won for Odelay, but I'm glad he won for Morning Phase. Congratulations Beck! :-)
Can I just have this song on repeat for the rest of forever?
Maybe 3 hours.
I love the basist at 2:10 !
I remember in 1999 listening to this great track on repeat after repeat after repeat. How can a man be so innovative and always fresh as Beck? That's a mystery even to me.
lol! that's JMJ, legendary bassit!
He's got boobs @2:18
Craziness. Just what I expect from one Mr. Beck Hansen. Love his 'new' Jagger-esque moves!
The look on E.T. ruler's face is brilliant... he realizes his time has come to an end. Was it all for nothing? He would weep if only his species had tear ducts. It was a true artist that painted that on there.
They really did party in 1999. Then the apocalypse; I don’t think pop music into the new century ever did recover from that blow out!
Forget Adam, this guy has moves like Jagger.
The complete package and more....🔥
Beck is just perfect.
This song usually doesn't last three hours, but Beck got into a serious thing...and then he forgot how it ended.
+Caleb Jaaniste (K-leb) That was the best forty-minute washboard solo I've ever heard!
+What-If Machine The parts when I was awake, blew my mind.

by all means smoke it
Amo!!! esta maldita canción... Beck musicmaeze!!!
I honestly think it's impossible to dislike this song!!!

Haha! Lovin' Jack Black's delivery in this video, "I WANNA TOUCH PEOPLE!!!" LOL!!! XD
Right?
It's beautiful!
I PICKED COTTON!
I thought he said ''I WANNA TOUCH PIG HOLES!!'
Zack Zallie good lord both sound terrible
I hated Beck when I was growing up but now his music is nostalgic AF and love it! 💯
I love all of the references to William Klein's Mr. Freedom in this video.
You may think you are cool... but you will never be Roger Manning in a cape playing the banjo in a Beck video Cool!!!
fernando perdomo Thank you so much, I was wondering who the hell that was and would've never figured it out if you hadn't of mentioned it. I came here with vague memories of Jack Black running around crazily and what caught my eye this time was that guy in a cape and the wrist band seals the deal.
squinkque On closer inspection it looks like a watch with a big wide strap, I'll keep you abreast of further updates on this breaking development.
Rex Manning
IT WAS RELEASED IN 1999. THAT IS ACTUALLY NUTS. BECK IS SO BEAUTIFUL. GOODBYE.
fuck ! i didn't know it was released that long ago .
it feels like yesterday
There's something about nonsense that attracts people. Beck is definitely the Lewis Carroll of pop music, but his attitude transcends the farces of the past with his huge range of musical influences.
Isn't he the kinda guy you just want to spend the rest of your life with?
I love you Beck Hansen!!!
Beck is presidential material.
Beck for president!
Fischer Cutchshaw would probably do a better job than all of the candidates we have right now haha
+blueshirt821 All the republican candidates*
#FeelTheBeck
I think you meant all the democrats candidates, hooray for the left self destorying the western society!
אנונימית אנונימי Wait for the inevitable reactionary movement. And that is the majority of the country, and they have all the guns.
I haven't been to a Beck concert in 15 years, but all his concerts back then were like this video...surreal and crazy!
isn't he like 16?
Doug Brown
He's in his 40s.
Dammit I wish I'd seen beck in concert fifteen years ago. I was a broke teenager lol dammit though
@@dougbrown9734 he looks and moves like it.
Dude I remember them announcing the debut of this on MTV I was glued to the TV waiting for it. Video gave me chills lol I was freakin obsessed with Beck back in the day lol I was a mellow gold era listener. 😎
This is one of the greatest songs ever written.
Absolutely
I think this guys music is indescribable, the genre should be called Beck, hes brilliant.
i just wanted to point out that at 0:53 that's not actually a live fridge dancing around. If you look carefully you can see the guys feet.... there's a man inside there. It's not actually a living, supernatural fridge. It's just a fake fridge with a guy inside. Just wanted to point that out.
Thanks
Damn, yeah, thanks dude.
Don't be so gullible. The "man inside" disguise has been fooling weak minded people for decades. I bet you actually believe that there was actually a small human inside R2-D2...
He sounds like Bowie in this song
Nothing gets by you
This song came out just as I was learning to play the bass guitar. This is still my favorite bass guitar in any song released to date.
Beck is such a beautiful human being.
Beck in resplendent....best
Beck really puts the fun in funky.
That's Beck, king of music videos
That Zebra man with the swivelling hips playing a banjo lives in my dreams.
one of my all time favorite music videos. i miss the 90s.
I SEE YOU JACK BLACK!!!
i luv his shuffle
Me watching video in the 90's: "This video is weird"
Me watching video now: "EVERYTHING'S F***ING!!!!!!!!!!"
Very Nice !
La mejor cancion del mundo para toda la vida eterna gente!!!
Today's pop stars can wear meat dresses, ride naked on wrecking balls and sing songs about S&M all they want, but Beck will always be the guy whose video featured a fridge making sweet love to an oven, and nothing can top that.
Flash Flood hahaaaaaaaa right on
Exactlyyyyyy
texttttttt..... why!
some believe that inanimate objects have a consciousness too.
And various other food products just giving it to each other. Omg there’s more.
one of the most dynamic performers of our time!
The Best Music Video by a long stretch, it's nearly incomprehensible.
I get this song going through my head all the time!!!
That Beck fella sure dances nicely.
is that... jack black?
Dammit!
Christmas is here already?????????????
Sure Is
When you ask that; it always is.
Haha my exact thoughts
The music is so funky - one of Beck's all-time greatest. The video - Roger Manning with that weird banjo. Beck is the best.
💪💓🕺🕺🕺 I still love it in 2019!! Damn i went and got old 🤣

+Michaël Bil Doug made that clear in his first sentence. Powerful reiteration! ;)
I love this album ❤ Among them, this song and Deborah are my favourites 🤙 BECK is the best ⚡️
man, that bass line!
So Beck did this !
JMJ delivers the most badass bass line ever. Thank you, JMJ.
Such a range of material Beck is the best
Thanks Futurama! :))

This song has been brilliant for 22 years! My first time watching the video, as a fan of Anthropomorphism, I love it! xxx :)
This video is Perfection!! This is Legend.....DARY!!!
It's impossible to not move around to this song.
ikr. nice profile pic by the way.
Robin Ferris Thanks
+asddsdsssd do the truffle shuffle
This album is one of the most MIND BLOWING EXPERIENCES I HAVE EVER HEARD.
woah... that was like James Brown meets David Bowie meets a tad bit of Mick Jagger mixed with a whole lot of Beck-ness...
Beck is unreal, surreal, madhouse
La pub de la RENAULT Twingo m'a amené ici :-D
same in Italy , leu stess en italì :D :D
Pareil, une pub et c'est la nostalge...
La pub utilise très bien le morceau d'ailleurs.
so much creativity!!!!
Jack Black rocks every fucking time! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
100% agreed
When this clip came out I was fascinated by its zanyness, though for an italian 12 years old it was hard to understand the lyrics.
IT still rocks today, thanks Beck!
I'm surprised Beck wasn't excommunicated from Scientology for this. Good to see he is open minded and super creative while making amazing music.
Just WHAT is that dance Beck does in the beginning?
Usualmente está canción no dura tres horas, pero a veces nos gusta tomarnos las cosas en serio y luego me olvidé como terminaba.
I remember the 1st time I saw this on MTV. I was blown away. Went & got the album that day. Still my favorite Beck album.
for some reason beck reminds me alot of micheal cera
+saulhendrix reason may be that they look similar
+saulhendrix Beck made the music for Scott Pilgrim also.
WilleydOFFICIAL lol true
+WilleydOFFICIAL Metric also had something to do with that soundtrack I think, it was just a great movie based on an even better comic
Yeah but with more swagger
Unexpected Jack Black is always a treat.
Used to party hard to this album. Still love it
Defy those laws!!!!
Tenacious D and Beck unite!!!!
Why are we not funding this?
+MrBlondieZero Tenacious D sucks.
+Desolate Soul woah, none of that
+MrBlondieZero I freaking love these two bands. And I want to hug Jack Black. Forever.
How many years...sniff. Beautiful song, amazing video. Great Jack!
That song doesn't usually last three hours, but we got into a serious thing and then I forgot how it ended.
Que bonitas epocas y cuanto estaba el MTV antiguo pasando estos grandes temas y videoclips. Nostalgia xd
