    In the 90s, a co-worker friend of mine and I were doing some work in Tracy, Ca and decided to travel to Reno, NV for the weekend. I had never been to a casino before but he told me to just double your bet each time you lose when playing roulette. Well, I ended up losing hundreds and so did he. To save money, we slept a few hours in the rental car in some parking lot. The next morning, very early, we walk back in to that casino determined to get our money back and this song was playing as background music. I'll never forget it, and no, we didn't get our money back. We were losers baby.

Great, but makes absolutely no sense and the singer even said he hates this song because it was supposed to be a b.s. thing that's actually his most acknowledged piece he's ever made. Meaning he accidently did something awesome but can't when he's taking the music seriously and trying to express himself. At absolute most depth, the meaning behind this song is the random words are expressing the worthless loser idea." Nothin matters, f*** it, burn down the trailer park and shave your face with some mace in the dark. I'm depressed and nothing matters." That's pretty much it.

Also, it has a *tons* of hidden meanings and metaphors. Beck is a genius, and geniuses tend to put down their most popular work like, all the time. It's hard to face the realization than the easiest thing you made is the most popular, and perhaps the best as well.
      "Ban all the music with the phony gas chamber
      Cause one's got a weasel, and the other's got a flag
      One's on the pole, shove the other in a bag"
      That's a formidable metaphor for the music industry if you take 2 seconds to really think about it.
      Also that's again his opinion, the idea that Beck "can't come close" to doing something amazing when he's taking himself seriously is insane, he had one of the greatest career ever lmao that is grotesque self-deprecation or your interpretation of it there is.
      I think that he wrote it when he *felt* like a loser, which is why he feels that this is not a good song, but it's a great song, because it conveys the feeling perfectly.

      Runon Fragment I know lol. But Album of the Year is considered one of the "big awards" I don't think he's gotten that before. This is real Grammy shine for everyone to see.

      Bro 1: That's why they picked someone nobody has ever heard of for Album of the Year, cause they want to award real artists
      Bro 2: Hmm I think you have a point.

    • @Jamesharveycomics
      @Jamesharveycomics 3 года назад +10

      @Peter A. Star Wars is a pretty strange and unique mix of Flash Gordon, Akira Kurosawa, John Ford westerns and East coast mysticism. The ingredients are not unique, but the recipe is. Beck and Lucas are similar in that respect. They both trade in recontextualisation. Sad that Lucas didn't "get it" when it came to Beck.
