Beck - Creole Belle

[swiftshop]

Stumbled on this by accident, tried to give it the benefit of a wee listen, but this is a very....very.....bad song

[donkeywithsumpizzazz]

decent song....by the way maybe its just me but theres a definate mitch hedberg resemblance here

[SasukeUcha77]

@donkeywithsumpizzazz He does sort of look like Mitch, but with lighter hair.

[AmbientMess]

Beck had many great eras but the Midnite Vultures era always stood out to me as my favourtie for some reason. Just wish I discovered him when I was younger!

[ParabolaTool]

I have 290 tracks from Beck and I'm STILL missing a bunch of his songs.

[nick4man3]

@ParabolaTool

I'm at over 700 and I don't have this one, so don't feel bad.

[wasabihansen]

jajaja, yeah, it's a great collection the beck repertory, i'm looking for a song called "inmirato per signora" or something like that... i've only heard it only once and now i can't find it

[garngaweed1]

The name of the movie was "A life less lived"

[STwohig77]

Actually, the movie was called "A Life Less Ordinary," which was only so-so in my opinion if I remember correctly, and the Beck song on the soundtrack was "Deadweight," which I think is a pretty decent tune.

[jackm05c1]

He looks like Finch from Just Shoot Me.

Beck <3

[ParabolaTool]

Yeah, I always thought Beck and David Spade looked similar. I love both of them.

[carnationsoul]

I can't believe the ignorance of some of you, bashing Beck for taking liberties with an old song. This is his own song, and it has nothing to do with marching tunes or Mississippi John Hurt. Don't you know that radically different songs can share a title???

As for my take on this song - it is one of my favourite of Beck's lamentably unreleased songs. Beautiful and nuanced.

[RotgutPreacher]

awful

[TheRealWitches]

I cant find it on amazon or itunes..where can you download this at?? anyone Know?

[ScottZSLC]

hes always good :)

[osmark90]

shyt, jon brion played with beck?? as in i heart huckabees and eternal sunshine of the spotless mind soundtrack jon brion!? kah-rayzee...

[CiaoCucin]

I have no idea either

[OneofTheProphetz]

yeah they did the soundtrack for trip movie with ewan mcgregor and cameron diaz can't remember the name of it right now

[corndawgz88]

I've never heard a version of creole belle like this before. It is so far off base they should have just gave it a new name. I think i agree with the dude below me. 'creole belle' is an old string band marching tune. this has taken to many liberties. Beck has some good tunes, but this isn't one of them

[miLLer3873]

i'm sure why you are idolizing this guy... sure, he made some good songs, BUT he ruined this song. all he is playing is simple chords because the real song is, i'm guessing, too much for him

he is ruining blues music and none of you know its a blues classic... instead beck is just "so brilliant"... follow the crowd some more sheep

[julyboy66]

you suck

[zeedi0]

I think that you're thinking of "My Creole Belle" by Mississippi John Hurt.... This is a different song.He only used a similar song title to pay a small tribute to Hurt, because he inspired Beck so much.

[Zingerola]

thats just dry.

[ohgreatguru]

Beck & Co. are brilliant.

[thoseposers]

Absolutely love this song, it's so laid back.

Great song....the man is no loser.

[Cheesenipp6]

sounds like it could be on mutations a little bit...i LOVE this song by the way

[costin12]

does someone know the tabs ? please .

[brandonbbad]

this is why Beck eclipses everyone from the 90's since, he makes simply beautiful music.

[WKRPinCINN]

he looks like david spade

[pukka99]

I think people often confuse Beck's having fun with making fun --

[WKRPinCINN]

i agree

This whole show is great...so many rarities...and great versions of his more acoustic-oriented numbers. Thanks for posting!

[Dreed122]

[SKUNKAPE007]

[vandergraff]

[jimpvalentine]

nice. Beck is the man

[YourFakeFriend]

Creole Belle was so pretty. It's so frozen in time because he just did it at a few shows that year (2000). It's good to see this video of it.

[elleski13]

da da da daa daa daaaaa!

[screamingbutterfly]

I can't figure out why I like everything that BECK does . I must be an accidental fan

[tdon46151]

Wow, how old is this? Great stuff.
