Holy shit I love Beck!!!! He puts folk, blues, funk, hip-hop, punk, rock, jazz, classical into a pot and stirs it. And the finished product is BECK. I love it, I remember watching this as a younger teen...I was instantly a fan. I'm extremely happy he won "Album of the Year". I don't usually care about the Grammys, but I'm glad he was recognized as one of the best artists in music. "Morning Phase" is a great record. Each of his albums are good for different reasons, I don't really dislike any of them. I just go through phases where I listen to some more than others. RANT OVER....sorry.
When did we forget that good music can be fun? That's one thing I miss about the 90s. Beck could be weird, poetic, postmodern, but you could dance around your kitchen to it or blast it at a dorm party.
2:15 I love how Beck almost laffs at hearing the woman scream when took out the whip This performance was stellar and hats off to his drummer guy is all over
I was on the Beck’s Odelay world tour 1996, few ppl knew of him in Portugal, the concert he gave at “Imperial ao vivo” festival in July was the best concert I ever attended ! Holly sh*it what a show ! The beats, DJ Swamp, the choreography !! Still unbeaten today imo 👌
I was hooked from this performance on. I was in HS and didn't quite know what to think if it...but I understood all of the cultural references in this performance and knew I FELT WHAT HE WAS SAYING/DOING 😎🤘🏽... I miss the days of being artistically blindsided and loving it...loving the new sensations of it all.
Samples aren't off beat accidentally...the horns/sax whatever the fuck are supposed to be on an offbeat because every second drum measure, they come in late purposely and end on time to give a trippy feel. Listen to the studio recording
anything that would be lame in any other band beck makes cool a horn section, guitar and bass player doing synchronized dance moves, a turn table! how does he do it
This is from an MTV Video Award show (late 90's?). I've been waiting for someone to post this vid, thanks! Check out the James Brown dance moves Beck throws down at 2:50! Amazing performance!
I'd say the guitar tech was sacked that night, or the guitarist could have tuned up on the quite parts, fantastic vid but the out of tune guitar lets it down.
90's please
come back and save the universe
🤣 yes
This was when the MTV awards were worth watching. Beck has better dance moves than Beyoncé.
Jennifer Rodriguez lmao you must be on meth
RustySacks beck wins. always.
Bruce Wayne nah
Apparently no white person has ever heard of James Brown
there were so much good stuff going in the mtv in the 90´s, i guess I took it for granted. i miss those days
I've just heard it on my audio cassette right in my recently Sony Walkman!
This is just amazing how we can travel in time...
Had the biggest crush on Beck after this performance.

Beck ,isn't that old bro.imstill finding some of his tunes.
🤘🏽😎💯
One of the greatest and most underrated performers of all time. Same goes to the band.
I love how Beck does a little dance and then has a guy walk up with a nicely framed mirror so he can suavely comb his hair.
Yeah, just like Morris Day and The Time "Jungle Love"!
@@funkajafuuzy And Morris Day was ripping off James Brown

I didn't notice this. lol.. He's usually pretty straight faced, no matter how silly things get. I guess he was surprised.
This is how I learned to dance.
His funkiness knows no bounds..
Beck used to be such a great dancer! I wish he hadn't injured his back :(
this is not a mere man. beck is some form of funk god.
If Lieutenant Commander Data became human, he would become Beck.
Agreed!
The sax, the scratching and the moves...GENIUS

as a kid watching this I remember thining this was Austin Powers
Love this footage, I saw it when it aired...love watching him dance!
The low amount of views on Beck videos saddens me.
Woaaa! I vividly remember having seen this when I was a kid. MTV was kinda a brand new thing where I lived and Beck was totally mind blowing.
Back when MTV was cool
Hes a winner baby.. who'd have the balls to put that sh$t together.. brilliant
back when the VMAs were enjoyable to watch
Its funny to watch when some people in audience try to clap in the rythm of this song. And they fail well!
Beck! Very good singer, dancer and performer!!! Greatttttttt!!! I loved the panderiro in the end!

I see the tambourine, but not the fan and the whip! What sorcery is this?!
Just love the music, band, and the Becks moves!!!!!!!!
Did he just summon it, or something? I wouldn't put it past him
This has always been my favorite MTV awards performance

BECK IS SO COOL....OMG!!!!
Love this live version of it.
I see this live on MTV and blow my mind
This is from an MTV Video Award show (late 90's?). I've been waiting for someone to post this vid, thanks! Check out the James Brown dance moves Beck throws down at 2:50! Amazing performance!
@vazmon 1997 MTV Video Music Awards... Best year ever!
A little touch of Morris Day and Jerome
Beck is insane
Those backing vocals are hot.
As good as he is, even Beck can't make scientology cool.
hahahahahaha, true that homeboy!!
lol he confirmed he wasn’t one
I saw that presentation live when I was a teenager
Hhahahaha, someone screamed when he whipped...
He's brilliant.
i have been looking for this so long!..thank you for posting..
one of my fav VMA's ever!
I like this song so much
Me gusta mucho esta canción.
I really love his music,the way he could mix many music genres with rock and retro, he's just a genius!!
Tambourine at the end . Changed my life .
VIVA BECK
beck has some sick ass dance moves
beck & bjork rule the new age music
I wonder what Justin Bieber fans will say and react about this video???
Made me randy, baby...Beck was waaaaay ahead of his time...
3 people are affected by the pollution.
yikes, that guitar sounded out of tune at the beginning
I swear Reigen from Mob Psycho 100 sings really well
Ideally, tune guitars before playing live
He does Prince because he has the talent/genius to back it up.
Black shirt with gold necktie, yes. 😁
Awesome performance but somehow i feel like the tempo is too fast on this..
Fucking song!
Rythms make me crazy!
This performance was tight!!
Fucking love this song
THE BEST MTV AWARDS
Scott Walker vibes.
How did he not split his pants?
Great performance6
That's how we do it!
I'd say the guitar tech was sacked that night, or the guitarist could have tuned up on the quite parts, fantastic vid but the out of tune guitar lets it down.
Where did he get the tambourine from?
HAS ANYBODEH SEEN MAH TAMBOURINE
I love how he almost swallow the microphone at 0:51
*SMOOTH MOVES BECK!*
Hip, redefined!
1997
Fantastic
Beck has a country sound in this!
The guitar player did a bloody awful job...
I watched that show live and direct, thise where the days mtv used to play real music!
muito bom boa performance ao vivo
mi papa, es doctor
that's superb
Im 14 years old!
The best performance at the VMA’s in the history of the VMA’s!
He's more dystopian than any metal guru you can name.... incredibly dark visions
This is sung significantly lower than album version
Omg it's so great recording LOVE IT
Inspired a generation of Napoleon Dynamites
Justin Meldal-Johnsen tears it up in this vid. Amazing performance of a great song.
The new solution to new pollution is new dilution...
I love him. So talented. I hope he gets out of that cult.
Love this proformance
muy prince....muy the tme... muy beck
Tambourine's are a Beck's best friend.
Who never needed to copy James Brown to make the performance look cool?
emotions
the guitarist is so sharp. eww
An iconic video
We want more! Brilliant!
Simply awesome
powerful!
