I am a fan of the Flaming Lips and have great respect for Wayne but 2:29 reminds me of myself in the shower each morning........totally murdering each note but still finishing it off with a fist pump!
i had to create an account just to comment. this is the saddest performance of a beck song ever. did you guys rehearse or what?? did you know he was going to sound so terrible and botch your perfect song?
I know who Wayne Coyne is. I listen to the Flaming Lips. That doesn't mean I have to suck their balls every time they do anything ever. Background vocals after the chorus were straight up retarded. That's not to say they weren't typical Wayne Coyne, but typical Wayne Coyne would accompany Beck better on songs that aren't from Sea Change. Instrumentals were pretty well done, Beck has never been that good of a singer so he did just fine. Wayne Coyne's addition was fucking stupid.
no, that was terrible. i am a huge fan of both beck and the flaming lips, and that was real bad. seeing this answers questions as to why the pairing didn't work out. wayne is great, but when he's in wayne's world. party time. excellent.
After reading the comments, I was expecting this to be HORRIBLE because of Wayne.
Imagine my surprise when it wasn't.
:\
Either you people are hearing it differently then me or you're just being way to harsh. It sounded completely fine. Not exceptionally good, but definitely not bad.
I've never listend to much of Beck's stuff but I think this one was great, and the Flaming Lips obviously played it great, I liked Wayne's vocals in this, sounded good to me.
To the people who think Wayne Coyne ruins the song..... I think it would ruin it if he didn't do something to "ruin" the song considering he's Wayne Coyne...... it would go out of character for him to just stand there and not add anything unique to the music.
there was no point for the other guy to sing at all, even the choruses, they blew the mood, it was like he was trying to take the attention away from Beck, let him have the moment for gods sake it's his amazing song
if you people hate the artists so much, then why spend your time on this vid? if it sucks so bad, dont you have anything better to do?silence the flames! beck rocks and this song is very moving. so shut your face
OMG the guitarist should be dragged out back and have his vocal cords removed!! I love the way he shakes his arm in the air at 4:12 as if he just pulled off somehting like "The Great Gig In The Sky". NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT!
That's Flaming Lips lead singer Wayne Coyne. Normally, he's a great vocalist, but I've noticed on a few live videos that he can sound really hollow. Can't understand why, but then, Beck is sometimes the same, like he's straining to hit the right notes.
Guys.. Aside from the alleged facts that these musicians are "pranksters," "copyright whores" or "arrogant," I think we can all agree that this is a beautiful, powerful song. I mean, that's why we're looking it up on Youtube, right? I don't think I'll ever understand why an artist's life outside creative production has so much sway over listeners' opinions of their work.
wayne is a great frontman but his voice never seems to sound good live. that being said, i love the flaming lips and really respect their music...but i think he shouldnt have sang on this one
