STEEL THAT WIFE, YOU THREE DOLLAR COWBOY!

ARTIST: BECK
ALBUM: ODELAY
SONG: SISSYNECK
DATE: 1997
STATUS: ACQUIRED


Every artist goes country eventually. Elvis Costello, Darius Rucker, everyone. But with Beck its oh so anti-folk, or whatever Beck is. Sissyneck distances itself from the noise injections of other tracks on Odelay and its lyrics begin to approach some kind of cohesive narrative. Not to much though, its Beck after all. What's really important, as with all Beck songs, the music should be wrong, but it's oh so right.
