  • this is sooo cool, such a low keyed jam!!

  • nostalgia of the times when i had my first computer.. windows me. :').. it was so simple back then .

  • brings back memories of when we first got on our brand new windows 98 back when I was like 13 and was amazed by everything on it and I started playing with windows media player! LOL (now it's a POS!)

  • Yeah! Well, I have to say -"thank you" to microsoft, because after 10 years of discovering this song from Windows media Player <3, im a huge Beck fan. :)

  • Windows Media Player 7!

  • is this pretty much a cover from Velvet's "Countess from hong kong"?

  • @DanielOnGuitar They sound similar, but I do know that Beck draws inspiration from them so It wouldn't be a surprise.

  • @FeudalMoon listen to jackass then listen to JJ Cale's "You Got Something"

    not copied, but very similar

  • esta cancion me recuerda mi primer compu... y bueno la epoca del colegiouff esta es la magia de la musica, saludos a todos los que tuvieron windows ME

  • Jajajaja estamos todos en la misma, parece.. .

  • Beck totally ripped the whole jive of this track off of Countess from Hong Kong, a really obscure "Closet Mix" track by the Velvet Underground off of the compilation album "VU"

  • Beck has always used a bunch of samples.

  • Well samples are one thing but this is a cover.  The only thing different are the lyrics same melody, beat and repetitive descending accompaniment in the background. They even played harmonica! Sad, this used to be my fav. song on this album.

  • @CrazedAfroninja it's not that obscure. It's on the peel slowly and see boxset

  • Windows ME...

  • my favorite song dude

  • Beck is great. but this video sounds not as good as the original audio recording. the original one is so great.

My new one broke, to my dad broke out this old systemax. I actually works fine, but i can't update. And i have tons of stupid errors. Good thing i have my ps3

  • I love this song, its like a drunken hang over song.

  • this song is awesome!

  • I discovered this song thanks to Windows Media Player cause it was a sample.

    I love it when he says "ooh such a beautiful way to break your heart, is someone calling your name, it's driving you insane.."

    It's magical!

  • OMG ME TOO!!!!!!!!!!! :O

  • i did too o.o'

  • @jandui8 Me too! I have been searching for this song ever since i got my first computer ever since 2001

  • talking about soul enhancement music...such an unorthodox composer
