Search - Beck :: Mellow Gold [CLEAN VERSION]

Clean.

"A decent album with pros and cons. This version takes out a few of the curse words Beck was known for using in his earlier pre-Odelay days. A fun album, lots of different styles, probably his most diverse album from 'Golden Feelings' and 'Western Harvest' to 'Sea Change'. Includes 'Loser,' one of the few songs that changed much of pop music in the nineties being one of the first to mix the pop formula with hip-hop (just about any big pop star in the nineties was either influenced by this song or by the post-grunge movement or both). The clean version isn't better or worse to the listener, just cleaner. I guess one could say that you're not listening to it the way the artist intended, but to average listeners the music holds up the same."

Exceptional!

"An exceptional album to say the least! Inventive rythmes and pictoral lyrics make this album great. You'll appreciate the clever ways he edits out the profanity. Overall a four star effort!"
