[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.] 3,543 playsSea Change. One of my all-time favorite albums and I agree, these are the best songs Beck has ever written and produced.
Sea Change is a must-have. You will revisit to this album over and over again.
Beck - “Lost Cause”
It’s far too easy for me to sit around my house and get stuck in a rut of playing the same dozen whoever’s-hot-right-now artists over and over again. So as strange as it may seem, one of my favorite things about going out is not being in control of what music gets played. This past weekend, as some friends and I were waiting to be seated at a local bar, an album that’s all too neglected in my library was playing, and I’ve played it almost half-dozen times since.
Beck’s Sea Change isn’t the artist’s most well-known, eclectic, or happiest record, but IMHO it’s one of his best. Written and recorded after a bad breakup with a long-time girlfriend, the album has an unapologetically somber, sad-sack tone, and more simple, straightfroward lyrics than on Beck’s previous works. However, it’s rare for an album as out of the blue and unlike anything an artist did before or after to be as good, captivating, and cathartic as this. If you haven’t heard Sea Change, you’re missing out.

Beck - Paper Tiger
Sea Change is one of the best-produced albums I’ve ever listened to and is another all-time favorite. The strings and the bass guitar are just fantastic in this song. Best-heard with headphones.

Da-Tah: Free Mashup Scissor Sisters Download
Great free Scissor Sisters mashup album. Click here for the download.
Particulary like the “I Don’t Feel Like Losing” song: Beck’s “Loser” vs. “I Don’t Feel Like Dancing” and “Mama’s Sister”.
