How many of you got 🧀"CRAZY WITH THE CHEESE WHIZ"🧀? What other BECK songs should I do?
"The New Pollution" is a good one!
Can you hear a harmonica on the left can ?
Ramona
Where it’s at is awsome 😌
Debra. Truck driving neighbors downstairs. Pay no mind. Anything off of The Information.
Finally, a reactor that doesn't pretend they haven't heard all of the worlds most popular songs.
Don't think anyone does that
@@kaithecactus3714You think wrong then.
@@kanescrimes4848 i think you just created a type of person in your head for you to get angry at for the sake of complimenting this guy. I highly doubt you heard this reaction and your first thought was "wow, finally someone who doesn't pretend to know this song!" Who does that? Who pretends to know songs? All the music critics i watch are brutally honest about everything
@@kaithecactus3714 " i think you just created a type of person in your head for you to get angry at for the sake of complimenting this guy"
Again, you think wrong.
" I highly doubt you heard this reaction and your first thought was "wow, finally someone who doesn't pretend to know this song!".
You're dumb, here's why.
1-Did I say it was the first thing I thought?
2-I didn't say they pretend to already know the song. I said they pretend to NOT know the incredibly popular song.
You can't even understand what you read. Where are you getting this confidence? it's definitely unwarranted.
@@kaithecactus3714 In other words: Lots of reactors will pretend to have NEVER heard a famous song (especially if it's trending in some way) so they can get more views.
If you don't understand how pretending that, amounts to more views, then you aren't intelligent enough to have this conversation.
Helpful hint: Feel less, think more.
In an interview, Beck said he writes melodies to his songs with dummy lyrics first then writes sensical lyrics before recording. For this song, he said as the song came together, they decided to just leave the nonsensical lyrics and have the chorus be the only thing that lyrically makes sense, ironically, sung in a different language than English.
Spanish
And thank god because it gave us the timeless phrase "get crazy with the cheese whiz!"
It also harkens back to the days when he played at Cafès! He would write lyrical songs but sometimes he would sing complete gibberish to see if his audiences were even listening.
@@iloveushutup Not Spanish, although there is a Spanish equivalent.
@@79Glitch He does sing "Soy un perdedor", but his pronunciation disguises it.
Fun. Catchy. Weird. Unique. Bold. This is a timeless song.
DEMS DO BE FACTS DOE
Beck is a legend Up All Night is my favorite song
Odelay Classic!
My favorite line by far is the dramatic "I cant believe you!" cracks me up every time
No. It's "Crazy with the Cheez Whizz."
This was a pivotal song in college life for me as a Gen X and perfectly embodied the rootless lack of meaning, focus and sense of a future we felt at the time. Life consisted mostly of a hunt for experiences, senseless stunts and consumption of alcohol which the video somehow portrays vividly, while we were engaged in lengthy conversations about purely academic topics we mostly didn't understand and the never ending search for the next obscure band to come out with another noisy guitar hook. Fun times, really.
This came out when I was in my second year at San Diego State. Landed right on time for me. My chicano roommate and I were the only ones that laughed when our friends were singing "so....open in the door"...
My parents were graduating SDSU that year! lol
"In the time of chimpanzees, I was a monkey."
And so a career began.
Beck's whole band is legit. I saw him in Providence, out of no where he brings Jack White out to play the encore with him. Jack White played the slide part of this, it was incredible.
Whoa how Kool was that
Please react to Feel Good Inc. by Gorillaz for your Hit Bomb series
Seconded
I concur!
Yes!! That song is like one big hook
Oh hell yeah
Now that would be interesting
Alright, well now there needs to be a legit Hook Bomb Siren!
I was in college in full-on grunge-alt mode so, to me, this was the ultimate song of irony of that time. And I loved the ridiculous Bush quote.
Beck is a genius! He continues to crank out meaningful music ❤️
Im 48 now. At the time, I lived in Murphy North Carolina, Tucktaway in the mountains going to community college. All we would do was drink beer and listen to random songs like rage against the machine, pearl jam, Beck, Soundgarden, Alice in chains… The list goes on as do the memories.
I had just moved to Greensboro NC to live w my sister at 18; I moved from from the triangle; chapel hill/Durham. I had a full scholarship and almost went to college at Appalachian but instead became a drug addict. But I listened to a lot of the same music you listed.
I'm also from the NC mountains/foothills, Morganton. Same here in the 90s; beer, community College and alternative. Camping in the woods n such as well 🤘
I heard it when it had its debute on MTV and i loved the feel it gave me. I was in my youth and that song made me a Beck fan.
i used to think beck was weird and annoying but as ive gotten older i realized hes really a talented songwriter
His work on Scott Pilgrim vs The World was phenomenal.
He's weird and a really talented songwriter. You were half right in the past :)
@Alex Dahl Of course! Aphex Twin is great. My favorite one is probably Lichen, really cool track.
@@der_pinguin44 SPvTW has probably the best original soundtrack of any movie I've ever seen. It's just so damn good.
I love "different" and Beck fits that love. For me Beck has always been a bigger than life persona and when I saw him in concert for the 1st time in 2019 (at 48 yo) I honestly got choked up. It was like a near religious experience and my most cherished concert I've been to.
I have absolutely no idea why anyone would dislike this track.....So damn good. it was massive when it came out.
My favorite Beck song & remember the controversy about Lucas getting pissed about the Storm Trooper helmet! They blurred it as Beck was threatened by lawsuit.
This channel just keeps getting better and better each day. Love it, keep on keeping on Geebz.
I danced to this song on the beaches many times; in Italy, there were only a few of us who knew Beck during those days. I have wonderful memories
In the 90's MTV was a paradise for all teenagers around the world at the same time.
We who are now adults, marked by music and groups from that period, want to feel the enchanting impression of our "first time" watching these first reactions from various people.
Beck - Loser is on the list
when this first came out, I was 26, and an independent, unlicensed pharmaceutical sales agent. this song was an instant hit, it was just so groovy, catchy and fun...
As a former regular customer of reliable, independent, unlicensed, pharmaceutical sales agents, and in the words of Tom Segura "I appreciate you, motherf****r!"
"Sooooy un perdedooooor!" I liked how he used spanish on some of his songs. In this case just spanish for "I'm a loser". 😁
I gotta listen to more now. Just recently listened to this album. Really liked it.
I always wondered what the heck he was singing, I thought it was just nonsense sounds for some reason. Thanks matey
I feel like it was a nod to The Pixies, who had a number of little Spanish bits in their songs.
Can't remember 90% of my school work but every lyric, every guitar strum and drum hit of this song has been locked into my brain since the 90's.
Love your ya-ta-ta-da-di-da's brother Geebz. Bring it on! I run a studio myself and hear most of your pointers (I watch your stuff in my control room), but that being said you always point out stuff that I miss in the production as well. LOVE your frequency. Sprechen Sie deutche baby!
My favorite line is "drive by body pierce". It's funny picturing that. Any keyboard playing?? Keep doing what your doing. We all love it. Every time I get a notification on a new video, I have to stop what I'm doing and watch it. You are getting quite the following!! Keep up the great work.
It was released in 1994 - so i was 15yrs old and i remember that MTV played it over and over again. My 5yr older brother loved it so i did not . Guess i was to young. But i also was an odd kid, only listening to the Beatles and Oasis a little later. I remember that i did not like the "rapping" in particular, lol. Today i can enjoy this timeless classic.
High-school, and I would first hear this on an alternative radio station (back when people actually listened to the radio to discover new music).
When this came out in the 90s as a 16-18 year old ..it was like hell yeah!!! Just fit with are 1990s vibes .. Was like a re-do of the good days man..no war no bs ..times were chill
I was a teenager at this time, and it was something that spoke to myself, and my friends. The CD was in my collection the moment it was released. Such a great time in my soundtrack of life.
Love the channel!
1000th like.. aww right
" getting crazy with the cheese whiz" got me... I was in my 30s.
I subbed last night bc of your brilliant breakdown of Sound of Silence. I love your vibe...
I always thought it’s was… “sooooo head to toe, I’m a loser baby”
Cool that he actually says I’m a loser in Spanish now that I found that out years later 🤙🏻
Laughed when I heard " ..... and the termite choking on a splinter.."
I really enjoy how much you actually enjoy the music. The songs are cool, your expertise is super interesting, but the hook of your videos is your authentic appreciation of the music - I love that 😃
I could imagine sitting with you for hours going through music, just discussing how awesome it is!
I think I was a senior in high school when this came out. I specifically remember listening to it in both late high school and early college. It evokes memories of lazy summer afternoons riding in the car with the windows down. I can still recite most of the lyrics.
The album Sea Change by Beck is in Rolling Stones "Top 100 Albums of All Time". Talented dude.
Another awesome video! And I seriously was just singing this song a couple hours prior to you posting this 😂 “gettin’ crazy with the cheese whiz” 💯
Love your channel
"I'm a driver, I'm a winner, things are gonna change, I can feel it" must have inspired The Distance by Cake. They are in my mental 90s jukebox.
If you listen to Beck's Wave, it reminds of Radiohead's Pyramid Song. I love how Beck, much like Radiohead, freed himself from genres and from industry rules of pleasing the same audience and following a formula; and just makes the music he enjoys. Very creative.
I was 19 / 20 and loved it I’d just had my first baby who’s 27 now , reminds me of good times love Beck still do , girl ( my sun eyed girl ) is a beautiful tune aswell 😊
I got into this first hearing, I'm forty nine and at the time Beck was the only "grungy" solo artist. Beck is a legend!
This song always takes me back (kind of I'm only 30) to like 9th grade smoking with my best friend at the time who put this on. Not the first time I heard it but one of those random, super vivid memories. Great video as always!
Beck’s dad is actually a composer who handles a lot of orchestral arrangements on a lot of albums over the years.
He handled one of the most underrated pop gems of the 90’s, Blinker the Star’s “August Everywhere.” For tracks, I’d recommend either of the first two: September Already or Below the Sliding Doors.
Love the channel. Cheers!
Love this song, takes me back to my childhood. I was young and MTV alive!
I was around 17 when Loser came out. At the time I was basically a stoner, into weird stuff like Mr Bungle and Ween as well as grunge and of course classic rock. The CD single for Loser got a lot of play from my friends and I. There's some really great, funny tunes on that. Anyway, thanks for doing all this!
Beck's Odelay album came out when I was entering middle school. It was all over the radio.
I’ve always thought of Faith No More as a band that just jumps from hook to hook. Maybe I just like them a lot but all the different segments of their songs seem to be “the memorable one.” I’m sure you’ve heard Epic, so check out Falling To Pieces by them if you’re interested.
I think Epic would be a great addition to the Hook Bomb series.
Well my story is a weird one...It was like 95' and I was 11 years old. My aunts bf at the time was a geek and built my family our first computer with Windows 95 on it. Whenever I lost in Solitaire, that audio clip came up, "I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me".....Had no idea what that was until I was 13 and started listening to the radio
That’s such a total 90’s anecdote. Iconic.
Nice 😁. I miss putting .wav files for older Windows sounds. Had Onyx's Shut 'Em Down for the shutdown tune. I used to be so cool, lol. My teen son disagrees.
It wasn’t the time I first heard this song, but the most memorable was when I was a teenager. I was closing the store at Baskin Robbins (which was attached to a movie theater) on a Saturday night, and I was cleaning with the music up pretty loud. While I was mopping the floor, a guy I had the hots for walked by, and right as we made eye contact, “I’m a loser baby” blared out the radio. I cannot hear that song to this day without going right back to that moment.
This song came out when I was 9...and my most vivid memories of that time were when my family went on yearly vacations to a lakehouse. I'm sure everyone else was out having fun in the lake while me and my cousins sat inside and watched MTV. Songs like this, and Black Hole Sun, Nirvana, remind me of those videos and sitting in that lake house on the floor watching them. Two years later I'd see my first concert White Zombie and The Ramones :)
First day of High School, recorded it the night before with 4 other song (top 5 at my local radio station) without listening to it before the next day. Discovered it, sitting at my desk while waiting for my very first high school class to begin. The cutest girl in class heard it because my headphones were so loud. She talked to ME, asked "you love Beck too?".
"I sure do!"
Never heard that song before the last 30 seconds, but I was, without a doubt, a Beck fan for now on! Turned out, it was pretty good too!
Beck was one of my biggest musical influences in my senior year of high school and beyond (I'm 28 now - graduated in 2011). I was into Syd Barrett's solo work at the time and was really drawn to his quirky lyrics and chord progressions. Beck fit right into my tastes. This was more than likely the first song I heard by him. Really opened my eyes to how unique instruments can meld together in a fun way.
you would never think of it unless youve just listened to it, but this is really beautifully composed and mixed.. perfect song in many ways
LOVE BECK! First listen was in my early 30’s when it was first released. Loved it immediately and have followed Beck religiously through to the present day. Yep, much older as well...bugger! My especially favourite albums are Mutations, E-pro, Sea Change, Morning Phase and The Information.
7th grade. This made so many mixtapes off the radio. I can still remember so many life experiences with songs like this as my soundtrack.
Spring of 93...in last year of middle school, just introduced to Metallica, Gwar, Misfits earlier that year. The very start of my lifelong love for alternative/extreme music. Oh, started skateboarding that year too.
I was 18, living in a small town in the south of Sweden. My best friend played bass in a Nirvana cover band and I was helping friends organizing "illegal" rave parties, this song fitted perfect to that specific time. So did Devils Haircut 2 years later. Sounds like a Sitar to me to. Rock on. =)
Weird, I was 18 and playing bass in a Nirvana cover band and some friends organised a party called Bogstock. This was Ireland though not Sweden. Crazy coincidence.
ÅÅÅÅÅÅÅÅH ÅÅÅÅÅKAAA PENDELTÅÅÅÅÅÅÅÅG = Nostalgi
Which small town?
This album was released 3 months before I was even born! But I vividly remember this song being on the radio non stop as a kid. Obviously i had no idea what the lyrics were but this song always takes me right back to childhood in the back seat of my dad's brand new Chevy Blazer! Thanks Geebz!! Keep it coming!
So much good stuff.
Who wonders if termites choke on splinters if you also smother them with wax or decides that cheese whiz needs a shoutout?
Beck, just Beck. Both lines make me snicker every time.
‘You can’t write if you can’t relate’. Powerful in it’s simplicity.
I was about 24 (married, 2 kids) when this song came out.
At the time I was exhausted, and just starting to realize the impact that my parents had psychologically and emotionally.
Part of me felt a sense of disillusionment with my place in the world.
It’s the struggle of a lot of people who become parents, they take a hard look at the parent they want to be whether it’s being like yours or the opposite of them.
It still sets your mind back to how you felt you were treated, which opens up pain.
That began my self help journey and Beck was a small part of that process for me.
Wait, there are more people that feel like weirdos, losers and worthless sometimes?
I get cha buddy.
Sometimes we reflect the worlds perception of us negatively even though that’s not how we want to be seen.
If you hear that you’re worthless so many times, you start to beat up on yourself before anyone else gets the chance.
Once you’re in this defensive posture psychologically, it’s hard to dig yourself out of the hole you just buried yourself into.
Just like music, it’s always a learning process with a bell curve.
On a different day, I can hear this song and just listen to the sarcasm dripping in the vocals and instruments with enjoyment.
Apologies for being long winded Ohana, I just enjoy your analysis of my favorite songs because I try to do the same type of breakdown when I listen to songs. One moment i’ll tune my ear to follow the baseline with appreciation then turn towards the time keeping beat or maybe the harmonics coming off of a keyboard. It is a lot of fun to do with noise cancelling headphones on now. It lets me rediscover why I love them so much.
So, thank you for your approach with the reactions. It’s actually helpful when you visually point it out at the time too. I can sometimes tell which instrument you’re following along with when you focus in on one and that’s pretty cool from my perspective. Just wanted you to know.
Does that get Kama’Aina discount? 😉🫶🏻
This reaction definitely took me back, loved it. My buddies and I always sang along when this song played.
I was young and maybe missed it when it was released but became a Beck fan a few years later and absolutly loved it and as I was 14 kinda absorbed Beck into my identity.
Happy "maybe" Birthday Geebz!
heya great to hear you take on this one. Anyways, I was in high school at that time and I just knew only that one (hit) song of theirs. That refrain was great to sing along and made me feel nice and weird and teenage angsty :-)
The drum loop is from Taj Mahal - Walk On Guilded Splinters.
It’s the drum break from the opening of the song looped in reverse. Taj Mahal is a treasure . That album Ton Ton Macoute!
Is a classic. Some of the Allman Bros Band played on several of the tracks.
Great presentation! I really liked it!
I had graduated h.s. the year before but was just getting into TOOL, deftones, NIN and so this wasn't on my radar at that time tho love it now!
For me this song was around spring of my senior year. I just happened to catch the first air of the video on Much Music. We were instantly hooked!
High school. Listening to late night alternative radio in my sister's room. That's where I first heard this. If you're from South Africa - "if it's too loud you're too old."
This song was at my adolescence so its always been with me into my adult life from time to time it pops up, I'll always listen to it
Beck was just after high school for me. Still listen to his stuff all the time.
I was 17 when this came out. I first heard it at the beach with friends. I absolutely loved it then and love it even more now. I felt like a loser then (not anymore). Thanks for all you do! Rock on old(ish) man!
"That's right bring me the Hook Bomb Siren," sounds like a great song name. I am so glad you are venturing into these different styles and cool sounds. This is awesome.
Big fan of your decomposing 🤘 I absolutely adore Beck so this was nice but I really think you should get into his later music too. Please keep doing what you do!
I had just started listening to the radio when this song came out. It's one of the first tapes I ever bought. This was my "walk on" music when I was 13.
I'm 33...i was 5 when this song came out. probably heard it on the radio at the time but i mostly remember listening to it over and over when i was in middle school.
I just listened to this again the other day randomly on Spotify. Took me back to when I was a kid. But for some reason I never looked up Beck even when I found out his name. I recently did and saw the different music he's done. Soon gonna dive into his discography. Different music for a change. Lately into progressive rock and metal. But this is more chill and fun.
First heard this amazing track on Singled Out on MTV back in the day. I've loved it every since
beck. and cake. constantly on the radio at the paintball field in the 90s i always mix them up in my head
Just hit high school when this came out. I was more into punk and metal, but this got me into beck and I ended up getting the odelay album.
Love the channel! keep up the good work.
watching from Australia. Maybe we could get some Australian bands and their songs on the list for you to react to?
I was living in L.A. Instant ear worm. It was everywhere. We used to go to his mom's coffee house, which usually had a line. He'd occasionally show up and busk on the sidewalk for all the patrons. This was even AFTER this song and album blew up. I actually got to see Beck open for Johnny Cash in Hollywood. Weirdest crowd ever. L.A. hipsters combined with Bakersfield cowboys with giant belt buckles. One AMAZING show.
I first heard this song when I was backpacking in Australia for 7 months in '93/94. I liked it so much I bought a cassette single of it. I just kept hearing it on the radio over there and it was part of the soundtrack of my trip there when I was isolated from everything going on in music back in North America. The other albums that were part of that soundtrack were Pearl Jam's Ten that I brought with me and then the big launch of the follow up, Vs. which was huge over there too. I was introduced to Soundgarden's SuperUnknown on a 10 hour drive from Alice Springs to Adelaide with a local Aussie who saw them at a summer festival there. The soundtrack of our youth is a real thing that sticks with you.
in 1993, when beck released this, I was 20 and a Marine. I saw the smartass style for what it was, self deprecation. Its funny and I love comedy so I gravitated to it.
Back in the 90s had the C D Odelay DEVILS HAIRCUT is another great one. Loser was G.O.A.T. Soooo many cool hooks
I remember this playing on B106 while doing my middle school homework on my bedroom floor. They played it so much back then.
Early high school for me! I loved it immediately! I have very eclectic music tastes, this started me in the more grunge genre!
I'm 22 now, first heard this track from my brother when i was about 9 and was a total jam back then, still is to this day
This was the soundtrack to my early 90’s high school experience.
Hung himself with a guitar string! Love it! I know this song was on mellow gold, but odelay was a F'N classic!
Senior in High School in DC area - we had a huge huge radio station WHFS back then that was a pipeline into the whole side of music that was emerging and leftover gems from the 80s that became alt rock - and this song got so big it made it to the more pop or straight rock stations but Beck has been a life long genius and this was so fun and made me more interested in "Odelay" when it came out and THAT was a true soundtrack for one of the great moments o my life on a road trip in college. Beck is amazing is the moral of that story.
This song was one of the "free" songs included with my Rhapsody account back in the day and had a "Sansa" mp3 player that I loaded down with all of these songs. This was one of the most replayed songs on the thing before the battery started to expand and I ended up switching to an iPod. Love your videos please keep it up! I'd love to see you react to Protest The Hero - Reverie.
Beck is phenomenal. He’s super picky and diligent believe or not (also like the members of tool, lol). His delving into so many styles and genres of music is just so respectful. I was late in hearing this song, was 9 when it dropped. By middle school it was an anthem of sorts and made us giggle A LOT!
Heard this one when it first came out, loved it right away, and still love the whole Mellow Gold album. I was like 17 then so this really hit me hard, because it had parts of all the styles I was interested in. Ever since then I've been a fool for any kind of music that moves me, no matter the genre.
Early high school - just started taking my music seriously. Searching for my sound, this wasn’t it, but still loved it
I was 17 when this came out. It was a huuuuge hit, played in every rock/alternative club I went to. Also, nobody let not knowing the spanish words stop them from singing it, lol.
I was in my early 20's in my first place of my own when this came out. I loved the song right away and really embraced the whole 90's sound as soon as it came out. I was so tired of most music from the 80's I wanted a change badly at that point.
LOL buddy completely with ya. Love Beck, so many good tracks.
I was a teenager in the 90's, Beck was my soundtrack.
I was six when this song released. I had to be about that age when I first heard it because my older siblings used to watch MTV all the time or listen to the alternative rock stations when we were in our parents car.
