Beck | SXSW 2022

[@sabrinarene6909]

“you’re not directly saying i miss you but you’re encapsulating all of the feeling in trying to aggregate all of these words together that will not specifically say this is exactly what i’m feeling - they will give you the atmosphere of that feeling” genius ❤

[@FerGarage_Oficial]

It's always awsome to hear Beck talking about his way of seeing life. Beck totally rules!

[@CarinaPrimaBallerina]

Beck is the real deal! He's a huuuuge inspiration!

[@beck4044]

Hello, I want you to know just how much I appreciate everything you have done for me. Thank you for your love and support. You are a true fan, and I am so grateful for that. You cannot imagine how much strength your support has given me during a difficult time. I appreciate you more than words can say. I hope you keep being a great fan. Where are you watching from?

[@Mikefngarage]

I have always known what he was doing with his lyrics. I dont know if I am the only one who gets it. He used one liners that would give you the feeling of what he wanted to convey. Absolute genius

[@nerdsserverevengecolder..212]

Beck is a Genius dude. never say different.

[@chrisbarnette7137]

Beck can do no wrong in anything he does. From his Anti- Folk to his Funk to Synthwave.. All amazing.. thank you Beck .

[@edmund184]

I never really liked Beck. I know this is because I'm not sophisticated enough.

[@chrisbarnette7137]

@@edmund184 you don't have to be that way nor think that . Art is subjective and open to the one who is experiencing it.

[@Mikefngarage]

I have always liked Beck. I do like a lot of music. All types Rap, Alternative, are some of my most favorite. There are not very many interviews I could listen to the whole thing. I became glued to this one because I have always understood his lyrics and what he was trying to convey. It is like he said in a nutshell, He uses a lot of 1 liners to convey a feeling. He also confirmed what I have always thought. He rewrote lines using a thesaurus (didnt specifically say that but I know he did) so the thought was not so direct. Or went back and thought of what would make him feel the way the line was written and rewrote it with a synonymous line. Most interesting interview I have ever seen.

[@mystars5283]

I love this guy so much! He comes from the heart.

[@susanroyal97]

I absolutely adore him. Beck is so genuine a true artist.

[@tiredofit4761]

I have been such a fan of Beck since the early 90’s. His music is thought provoking and mesmerizing. It changes as we have all grown. He’s been such an inspiration for new music and his collaborations are aways phenomenal!! Cage the Elephant! Dwight Yoakam! Phoenix! I’ll never be bored of his music!!!! Always on my playlist. ❤ I think he’s a deep person who doesn’t portray himself as great as he is.

[@derosa1989]

Amanda is fantastic, such interesting and intelligent questions, nobody better to interview Beck.

[@chrisdistaulo]

Audience: *Raucous applause* Beck: “…Hey.”

[@dawngough1133]

As interesting to listen him ad his music. Feel like I could talk to him for hours!

[@SIGHBOY6]

Beck is underrated

[@SpelMusic]

such a sharp, aware, sensitive soul Beck is. I wish we could hear the 20 albums never got released yet paved the way for the ones we heard

[@adamkane]

Cheers when he mentions Pharrell, but barely a clap when he mentions Midnite Vultures..

[@quielyboo]

sad. midnite vultures is what introduced me to beck.

[@coreyaruecker]

Might be my favourite beck album

[@jeremywanner4526]

It’s a killer album

[@tomlento6068]

I love his candor. This was a lovely listen

[@sfchris]

That was a very entertaining interview. Nice job by the interviewer.

I really ...love this....i so enjoy ...when people share thoughts....thank you beck!!! Xo

[@sweetpea1662]

This human is quite unique and interesting.

[@user-ic4xp9cq6l]

Beck just a class act FULL .

[@jasoncardwell6849]

Great talk by Beck and the host.

[@deborahcurtis1385]

I fell asleep watching KZbin and woke up mid this interview, but my mind showed a naked hairy man on a slab on the screen. I screamed. One cat jumped off the bed. Then I listened to the interview. It is a fine exchange. It was like waking up on the Sydney Harbour bridge in a bus with the Col Joye backing band. I woke to the energy of that city with the vaguest idea of how I got there. Great that they talk about ephemeral. These are things we think about as a child but kill with too much 'reality'.

[@theresamarquez8063]

Love Bek.

[@antonellaleiva3607]

When he was younger,he looked like mama bibbe,now he looks like papa david

This guy seems to have all of Beck's lyrics memorized.

[@roboneil408]

I'm a middle-aged white male I happened upon Beck in 2002 with the sea change album. I was really blown away at every single song and play that CD almost every day for a full year. From there I went back through his catalog to Odelay and really enjoyed it also forward to the information in 2007 and wave in 2012 very as a music lover I can tell you that this man is a musical genius and very eclectic which I appreciate

[@grovers_paradise]

You can’t be middle aged bc I started listening to Beck in 1999 and I’m not middle aged lmao

[@roboneil408]

@@grovers_paradise lol. Your logic is flawed my friend I am middle-aged being 58 years old, discovered sea change at age 36. What's the problem?

[@h7opolo]

16:11 precisely why his music is so addicting. the melodies are catchy, but the lyrics are elusive. the mind begs for repeated listening to fill the gaps in missed data.

[@lanishortsunshine5773]

That was soooo fun.....

[@goatuscrow4135]

Love him.

[@mrt601]

You can tell by some of your lyrics that you actually picked up a book or two well played dawg. But you know you made it when Mr west accompanies you on stage

[@Blady99]

When beck walked out he gave me strong Michel Houellebecq vibes

[@knastvogel]

I could have sworn that was Laura Dern.

[@h7opolo]

cool, i didn't know about his sheet music-only album.

[@caulksoftener6843]

I, to this day, accidentally sing- Don't stop til you get it up And as a 5 - 7 year old, man, I must have pissed off some adults who couldn't laugh at the kid singing don't stop til you get it up

[@mdrama5528]

new gen kids may think his story are just joking around. But us '90s gen was knows that's all hilarious things can be real if it's was Beck.

[@tiredofit4761]

When I knew he wrote his biggest song as a “joke” toward grunge. I was hooked! I haven’t stopped being a fan! I do love Uneventful Days! Beautiful song.

[@mystars5283]

I think it is actually, Modern Love makes me party - I think - i could be wrong....

[@CullyBenson]

Sadly I actually had free tickets to see Beck here in Birmingham Alabama with Cage the elephant because my good friend and former bandmate from high school was the guitar tech for cage so he put me and my wife on the guest list and the night of there was a huge washout with thunderstorms and it was at a huge outdoor venue and they were threatening that they're just going to cancel the entire show so we set in a hotel parking lot for three plus hours until my wife finally just said hey I'm kind of over this like let's just go home so we went home and then an hour later one of my buddies here in Birmingham starts posting pictures and posting videos and I was like wait the the show went on like they're playing right now and he said yeah they decided to let him play late because the venue has a noise ordinancy that requires that all shows need to be done by 11:00 well it's about 10:30 to 11:00 and cage is still on stage then back gets on stage and I was like damn it damn it damn it we had free tickets and we decided to call it a night after sitting in the car for three and a half hours and I will forever regret that.

[@jimjam8949]

He's so creative. He pulls little bits from everywhere in pop culture and crafts his own sound. Wish he wasn't into Christian Science though 😐

[@shmooshoohead]

I'd like to know who censored this interview. The audio disappears on very specific words. I have something to say directly to who's responsible for this ludicrously paranoid censoring: What the HELL is your problem???

[@oedipax4]

I believe the censor in question was a dodgy lavalier mic signal, happens a lot and especially places like SXSW.

[@h7opolo]

12:00 imagine if "Happy" by Pharrell was Beck's instead!

[@thelocalbubble]

this they talk about at 42:50 Misheard a song lol Shocking Blue - Venus (1968) i Misheard this song many times when i was a kid, and was thinking she was so weird singing that,i heard the lyric as She's got it Yeah, baby, she's got it Well, I'm your Penis I'm your fire, at your desire 😄

Knowing. Unknowing. Regardless that preposition the fact of yhe (ythe = why the. My own language; ) ages amounts to magic, spells & the casting via ones mouth, voice & thoughtj(s) & in that order. Knowing that you realize how far back we really are and all while assuming we have come so far which the opposite is much the truer statement 😊 trickery befell us😊
