Beck Loser - TOTP 1994

[@ExposeDrift]

Hip hop, soul, reggae was our thing growing up, but when me and my siblings saw this on TOTP we wouldn’t shut up about it for months lol

[@81colinzeal]

He chose his band after finding out that artists didn't play live on TOTP.

[@ollyf5088]

Still remember my sister shouting me to come and watch this when it was originally broadcast - "there's somebody BREAKDANCING on TV!!!" breakdancing being distinctly unhip in 1994

[@danielpratt4418]

This blew me away when I saw it air and it has lost none of its charm over the intervening 20 years. Thanks for the upload :)

[@mci6830]

Same. That's why I came to watch it again. Probably one of the best, last moments on totp.

[@Blondie101010100]

30 yrs now! How is it 30 yrs! 🤦🏼‍♀️💕

[@boydegg]

When this was on TOTP in 1994, I could tell Beck was going places.

[@Blondie101010100]

When I saw this on TOTP back in the day, my mind was blown! Fav song and the ONLY one I dance to! 😂❤

[@eyeshandy]

Same I phoned my mate I was in a band with and we were like 'Did you see that guy, what was that all about.'

[@Blondie101010100]

​@@eyeshandyHard to believe it was 30 yrs ago. Where did it go to?!

[@eyeshandy]

@@Blondie101010100 I know I was 15 I'm 45 now

[@raskolnnikov]

I can remember seeing this at the time. Ta for loading it on. It blew away the usual crap on top of the pops!

[@philipnoblethe3rd695]

Things are gonna change... I can feel it....

[@davedmusic3598]

I saw this at the time it was mindblowing

[@timacann]

This performance just randomly popped up in my mind and I was compelled to come here and watch it. Do we ever forget anything or is it all just stored up there waiting to be accessed???

[@AnGoosen]

One of the guys is called Don, pretty sure its the guy on the floor, RIP a very nice person, met him a few times. They named a stage after him at Guilford Fest. Anyone remembers his name please post it

[@rogerprior7149]

it's Don Backhurst, miss him loads, we used to meet up at Cropredy. Thought he would live for ever. Ah those days.....

[@ArtVanNorstrand88]

Get crazy with the cheese whizz

[@daveholly9005]

First time i saw this on TOTPs I though that beck was "educationally challenged". It obviously didn't exist at the time but it evoked a similar response i had to napoleon dynamite. Like WWF (now E) I was both impressed and confused :)

[@markbenedictlamayao4915]

The best Loser Video!!! This is the true video!!!

[@basedsouljah]

Holy shit that drummer is the cop guy from the opening of the "Where it's at" music video... or am i trippin?

[@luke73tnt.]

I wish TOTP was actually live I mean the vocals are but the instruments obviously aren't. Look at Nirvanas performance of Smells Like Teen Spirit Kurt sang in a really deep opera like voice and they all just fucked around with their instruments because they were pissed they couldn't be live

[@martinmeister5394]

It's like beck had a Napoleon dynamite moment locked himself up in his room and came back with this single 😆

[@itsonelouder1]

Beefcake pantyhose

[@marklindenthaler3656]

I love Michael cera

[@patotidal2906]

Soyyy un vendedorrrrr 🎶

[@Wrekas434]

Desde aqui puedo ver ese playback

[@diegoignacio1444]

la voz no era playback

[@generalskunk6876]

If you look closely no one's actually playing (even halfway through beck isn't even singing)

[@rike94]

i guess you are new to totp

[@_my_last_resort_1163]

Beck's singing the instruments aren't and beck sings over his own chorus

[@shame69]

BIZNISS! Could never work out what B. Heck was warbling in the chorus: "Sodium pentothal"? "Sawyer, 'pen the door"? And it doesn't really matter.

[@gilhams]

Soy un peredore = Spanish for I'm a loser.

[@richharrison4069]

Man don´t worry I am native Spanish speaker and I had to look for the lyrics to see what it was.

[@TuningFreak23]

90s in a nutshell.

[@jasonpeters9865]

Please.....

[@goldding3471]

cool as fuck

[@arhmangina]

Funny how none of the band members are actually playing it

[@jasonpeters9865]

Drive-by body pierce

[@Liv1ngTheDream]

SOYYYYUM ONE GET THE DOOR

[@Westerdd]

Love the piss take with the backing band . Not only are they not playing , they actually can’t play 😂😂😂😂

[@cadesturgeon2172]

Woah I always thought the little flip thing he does in the loser video was fake. Guess not lol

[@goc1842]

I look like the guitarist now

[@Stahlflug]

Ich trage diese bezeichnung mit stolz weil ich immer darauf geachtet habe mir keine Kinder ( die ich sehr gerne habe ) anzuschaffen. Weil dies nicht mit meinem lebensstil harmonisiert. Deswegen hat dieser Song für mich etwas hymnisches und nicht etwas abtörnendes.

[@Stahlflug]

Fast schon Historisch.

[@greendayrocks336]

Such obvious lip synching during the chorus part lmao

[@garydodd1852]

It's top of the pops, it's famously not live

[@phillythrowbackrapchannel1149]

Hey this isn’t live:(
