Apparently, this venture into "new" music (inspired by American music such as BB King, back when RandB was still RandB) was a total blow.
Yes the oldies get the house moving the most (where the streets have no name is the absolute highlight in that department) but newer songs certainly get almost as good a reaction.
Ofcourse their having a back catalogue of songs ranging over 20 years really helps, but most people going to their concerts are 'die-hard' fans anyway (most concerts this tour have sold out within hours, people have been queueing ticketoffices everywhere since wee early in the morning or even worse).

I could not believe that crappy music video of theirs - for "The Scientist" - won an award for best group video.
I love the video for the scientist and it's a good track too, it's amazing that a song like that gets played on the radio at all - it has no bridge so it has a weird structure.
There's no use in getting pissed off at the Mtv awards, anyone who has ever watched 10 minutes of modern videos on it knows exactly what to expect for their choices.

 Music : Guero
With the raucous first single "E-Pro" triumphantly "na-na-na"-ing Beck's return with a must-be-seen-to-be believed video by Shynola (Queens of the Stone Age, Radiohead), "GUERO" both reunites Beck with classic co-conspirators the Dust Brothers and explores territories uncharted by even this most innovative artist of his generation.
I wonder what they are talking about cause Sea Change was one of the most incredible albums I've heard (with songs like "Lost Cause" and "Golden Age") Despite his dire straits' mode during the making of the record, his performance on that album involved more head and heart.
Guero is random and cheeky with only two songs that brought the Beck fan in me. "Missing" is a tribute to a feeling that mere words can't describe but it has been nailed in a song.
