Waking Ear
We have a pact, you and I. I write down what song I had in my head when I woke up in the morning. And, maybe, why. You click on "What's in your waking ear?" and tell me what's in your head right now. We discover new music and maybe learn something about how our minds work. Yeah?Wednesday, February 12, 2003
I still don't like Sea Change. I find it overproduced and lazy. I'll be quite happy to return to Beck's loving arms when the guy feels excited about making music again. "The Golden Age," with its particularly mopey, sighing vocals, is probably an exception. I like the pseudo-Asian aura of the tune and I get a kick out of the crooning harmony. It makes me think of Beck sitting on a curb in a cul-de-sac, pulling grass out of the ground and thinking about girls. But an entire album of that? You can have it.
By the way, if you found Pazz & Jop 2002 predictable, you could do worse with Metacritic's composite best-of list. It's still pretty unsurprising, but the choices are better.
