Beck - Colors

[@towermoss]

Can we all agree on Beck's genius? Dude has been putting out quality tracks for decades. He is probably one of the most underrated musicians out there.

[@chimaera01]

Quality? His music so plain and forgettable. You're pretty easy to please, aren't you?

Amazing how this video came together, with Brie coming in at the very last minute.. With the original actress bowing out with a previous, unbreakable commitment, Edgar Wright knew Allison Brie socially, but not professionally and thought of her for the part. She loved Beck's music and Edgar's directing style. When she agreed to do the part, she came in with just two days rehearsal (SAT,SUN) and two days shooting (MON,TUE). Since then, Beck has stated that this is one of his most favorite videos he's ever done

[@Wyatt-Foxtecha]

In Canada we also use “colour”.

[@freeofavia]

​@@gabrielantos4144 I was curious if it was indeed us, or actually the British who added the U. As with much of reality, the answer was actually more complicated than that. According to Vats Mittal from Quora Both spellings are many centuries old. Color, now regarded as the American spelling, in fact predates the United States by several centuries. In early use the spellings vied for ascendancy with several other spellings. Colur, culoure, and coolor, for instance, were all in the mix before the modern British spelling gained permanent prevalence in the 17th century.1 The American preference for color took hold in the middle 19th century thanks in large part to the conscious simplification of English spellings by people such as the lexicographer Noah Webster. Noah Webster lived smack in the middle of the time when Americans were still trying to form a country and figure out who they were. To give you some perspective, the United States Constitution was ratified between the time Webster published his first spelling book and when he started working on his famous dictionary. Americans were eager to break with Britain as fully as possible and weren’t even sure that English should be the primary language. Nearly 10% of the population spoke German, so some people suggested German should be our language. 1. “Zee” Versus “Zed” Noah Webster's influence is why Americans call the final letter "zee" instead of "zed." Webster undertook his first big project--an American spelling book to replace the British book schools were then using--in part, to settle the matter and convince people that our language should be English, but American English. It was in this book that he took small steps to begin creating American spellings. It was also in the speller that he taught Americans to pronounce the name of the final letter of the alphabet as “zee” instead of “zed” as the British do. 2. Political Rationale for Spelling Reform Webster is best known now as the dictionary writer, but in his time he was involved in politics and knew George Washington and Benjamin Franklin quite well. He regularly wrote political essays, letters, and tracts, and early in his career, he felt that an American language was necessary to hold the county together. In his lectures, he criticized Americans for studying Hebrew, Greek, Latin, French, and German, but neglecting English; and he wrote, “America must be as independent in literature as she is in politics---as famous for arts as for arms.” 3. The Compendious Dictionary: “Color” Versus “Colour” and More Before he wrote his big dictionary, he wrote a smaller book titled the Compendious Dictionary, and it was in this work that he really got rolling on spelling reform. For example, He dropped the “u” from “colour,” “honour,” and “a few words of that class” as he called them in his introduction. He changed “theatre” (re) to “theater "(er). He substituted an “s” for the “c” in “defence," “offence,” and “pretence.” He dropped the second “l” in words such as “travelled” and “cancelled.” He changed the “s” to “z” in a few words such as “patronise.” He also included changes that had already been suggested by others such as omitting the “k” from the end of “magic” and “logic” and spelling “risk” with a “k” instead of a “que” at the end. www.quora.com/Why-does-American-English-exclude-the-letter-u-from-words-such-as-color-whereas-British-English-uses-it#:~:text=M%20answer%20views-,Originally%20Answered%3A%20Why%20do%20Americans%20use%20the%20spelling%20color%20and,that%20and%20other%20spelling%20reforms.

false, KZbin algorithm would bring it as top result regardless of spelling. Google knows everything, even how you type.

[@kuakilyissombroguwi]

Doesn't get more "top-shelf" than this when it comes to modern pop music. Beck's a genius.

Glad to see that this is finally available for all to watch! Sharing on The Awesomer.

Man Beck is still kicking butt and is so very underrated. I ask friends if they heard of his recent stuff and all I get is, "the guy who wrote 'Loser?'" Then I play stuff from Odelay, Guero, and The Information and suddenly they're like, "oooh right, he wrote this?!?" I was pleasantly surprised to see Alison Brie in this as I am a big fan of hers when she was on Community, she can really dance!

[@SpXPtwn]

Check out Glow, as good or better than community

[@wdelgenio]

Check out all of Mellow Gold, One Foot in the Grave, and Stereopathetic Soulmanure

[@afton9271]

I believe he played all of the instruments with the help from one or two people. His range of style changes all the time.

[@wesleyreimer3868]

Agree! Alison Brie is a badass!

[@BlownMacTruck]

Beck isn’t underrated. He’s incredibly prolific and recognized, both by fans and musical peers and critics. He’s pretty much the opposite of underrated. Sounds more like you have musically clueless friends.

[@FeelGoodeIncMusic]

This is probably my favorite music video ever

[@AtomicPunk23]

This is the 20th time I've clicked this song, KZbin now recommends it every time no matter what I search. I f***ing love this song.

[@PoloFloresmusic]

BECK FOREVER! I missed his epic video style!!!

[@vincevirtua]

Apparently Alison Brie rehearsed her parts over 10 hours for a couple days when another actress had to drop out. Crazy..

[@ashamedrepublican1224]

@@iconocastlive unless you're an asshole that can dance well, that's not sad. That's pretty impressive

[@InverseAgonist]

@@iconocastlive you could pick up the general gist, sure, but there's a lot of very small, specific, precisely timed movements there. Plus there's a ton of backup dancers. You would really want to nail as much as possible in as few takes as possible to avoid wasting everyone's time.

[@vincevirtua]

@@iconocastlive I disagree, most people couldn't pick this stuff up on the spot.

[@kikcasso]

Alison Brie is quite dedicated to her craft. You should see the videos of the effort she puts in to prepare for Glow. That woman's a monster.

[@natashabenitez7650]

@@kikcasso agree with you completely anyone can say they are something.yet to Master a craft is completely different topic.

When Beck played this live opening for U2 in Detroit when I saw him, everyone was dancing. So good.

Dearest Beck, When sea change came out in 2002 I had just moved to AZ from Ohio after graduating high school and was the loneliest I had ever been in my life. Sea Change helped me navigate those insanely desolate waters. 22 years later, I am back in Ohio, estranged from my family after living in a tent in the woods for 9 months, living out of my truck and working at dunkin donuts to save up money to build a house for me and my son. Those waters in 2002 prepared me for the rocky, lonely waters I face now and you have helped give me the strength to endure so much in my life, I dont know how I could ever thank you. You've taught me how to unapologetically be myself and embrace the abstract. Thank you so much for just being the amazing person you are. See you at RIOTFEST. -Brad

It’s beautiful, I’ve been looking at this five hours now

This jam along with our dream vacay to Hawaii will forever be engraved into my cranium which is an awesome thing! This guy Beck is like a diesel engine and keeps entertaining us throughout the decades...quality stuff

[@calowenby1654]

Listening to Beck in Hawaii sounds like an awesome combo! I've done both but never at the same time. I think I've found a new goal!

[@shifterbbr1986]

Alison’s moves at 3:41, so fluid 😍

[@chadgarrett6947]

I'm really late to the party but this is a perfect song/video combo. Allison Brie is perfect. It gives me huge Peter Gabriel vibes in the absolute best way possible, and the song makes me just feel good inside.

[@egyvalaki5215]

Recently discovered this song and have listened to it a hundred times since then. Best music video of the past decades and one of the most interesting and complex songs of all time. I had been looking for something like this for so long.

[@Vhs_000]

I've been listening to it for a year and probably 2. And ifintity repeat

[@Vhs_000]

Just an addict.

[@ironbarsjack7977]

Every single person in this video did an INCREDIBLE performance

again an awesome song featuring my most favourite instrument ever: the pan flute

Alexis Hernández the Blue Man Group is a comedic group famous for their performance art. The people in the video strongly resemble the Blue Man Group and their choreography is a bit reminiscent of their onstage antics.

As a Peruvian, I approve of these pan flutes.

[@UltimateMTB]

They're not real pan flutes, it's a preset on the Korg M1 synthesizer

[@jbbudish]

The pan flutes are great, I agree, and it's cool that your Peruvian, however I'm not sure what being Peruvian has to do with the pan flutes in the song.

[@jbbudish]

​@Dan Carroll That is awesome! I love the wind instruments my self, they evoke a sort of existential connection to the soul. I've loved the Pan flute since I was a kid, I can only imagine what Amsterdam Pan flute was like. I bet it was amazing.

[@jbbudish]

I feel like that SNL sketch but instead of cow bell it's Pan Flute

[@beanerama9]

Pero de flautas peruanas no hay nada, caunsa.
