Beck
Do any of you have a band or singer that can do no wrong in your eyes and everything they touch is gold? Beck is definitely mine. He's been my musical idol ever since high school. The music he puts out, his style, just everything he does and everything he touches oozes with cool. I've seen most of the bands that I've always wanted to see but have yet to see Beck. Oh how I wish I could have caught a show back in the Odelay/Midnight Vultures tours, that would have been a lot of fun. so hopefully he comes around somewhere semi close and I'll try and go.
His music video for "New Pollution" still stands as one of my favorite videos of all time.....probably followed closely by 'Devil's Haircut'. Both made large impressions on me musically and also artistically with how the video was put together and edited. I used to watch them on a music channel called "The Box" that our TV picked up through the antennae since we didn't have cable. It was a music station that you could call and pay money to play a music video from a list they had. "New Pollution" was one of the videos I actually paid money to see.Here are both of them for your viewing and listening pleasure.
