Beck - "Uneventful Days"

One of these days, I really need to write a long essay on Beck's career. I feel like we still haven't entirely come to terms with what he represents in the culture, if anything. He wins a Grammy for Album of the Year. He remains a major touring draw. He was once considered a major artist. And yet ... he seems utterly disregarded. He is everywhere but nobody notices or cares. I find this incredibly strange.

In the meantime, "Uneventful Days" has been stuck in my head for weeks with no sign of dissipating anytime soon.
