WHERE MUSIC LISTENS TO YOU

Oh, Beck

Posted over 3 years ago
Wow.If you've never seen a song performed with just an acoustic guitar and two guys drumming on dinnerware...you're missing out. I caught the end of an old SNL episode from maybe middle of '05 with Beck playing 'Clap Hands' from the deluxe version of Guero . There are no words to describe it. It sounded so natural, I wanted to get up and dance. Like every band in the world should embrace percussion with silverware, and every dinner time prayer should be accompanied by a quick chorus of amazing grace backed by the kids on fork and plate. Well, maybe not, but still. It was awesome.

  1. Lord Helmet says I saw that as well... It was absolutely fantastic! Seems so hard for a band to do something NEW these days -- that was refreshing and I thought that they pulled it off brilliantly!

  2. Kirk says Great idea, but a good performance. There are better performances of "clap hands" on youtube. I watched it to support Matt Mahaffey of Self.
