I love that the guitar begins in the centre of both stereo channels, but then slowly moves to the left so as to leave room for the sitar on the right channel. It's a nice subtle detail that makes the song feel more dynamic.
I love the influence that's heard here to what it makes it to this day when it was released. Sure you can hear this band or that but no one else is Beck. Listen to his different songs and remixes. No one else did what Beck did. His soul resonates through ages and places and people. Aho.
This song is excellent on so many levels. The lyrics are simple, melencholy, wistful, wise... The melody is hypnotic, but not like it puts you to sleep, more that the music sounds like free-flowing thoughts or sensations inside your head. Sounds like a jungle or a dream. This song captures something so familiar to my experience of the world. Beck, you are the grooviest cat there is!
Astro Boomboy pretty sure he's breaking up with a girl with a bad addiction, telling her to get real after handling her as carefully as you would a sharp rusty object. He took her out of her element (the chain gang) to get her right. She's got compelling blue eyes, she knows how to use quite effectively to get what she needs. She stays high and does nothing only to blame some supernatural force for her actions. He's telling her to recognize aloud the fact it's entirely her fault. "Tell me that "It's nobody's fault but my own""
@@WilliamDavidHobbs I was struggling to leave someone I was madly in love with who I'd been with for 6 years, on and off, and who was never going to love me the way I needed him to -- now I know, he never loved me at all. Listening to this song, and especially Sea Change, just eviscerated me. I couldn't listen to any song on it without being inwardly torn apart. Only now, years later, I can (& Nobody's Fault but Mine), without feeling desolate. But I have to respect it and listen with caution (and not very often). Which sucks, because it's such a brilliant song. And of course all of Sea Change is as well. Such is the power of music.
The paradox of this song is that Beck has constructed it one harmonic layer upon another, yet even with all those layers he achieves a shimmering transparency.
Treated you like a rusty blade A throwaway from an open grave Cut you loose from a chain gang And let you go And on the day you said it's true Some love holds, some gets used Tried to tell you I never knew It could be so sweet Who could ever be so cruel Blame the devil for the things you do It's such a selfish way to lose The way you lose these wasted blues These wasted blues Tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own Tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own When the moon is a counterfeit Better find the one that fits Better find the one that lights The way for you When the road is full of nails Garbage pails and darkened jails And their tongues Are full of heartless tales That drain on you Who would ever notice you You fade into a shaded room It's such a selfish way to lose The way you lose these wasted blues These wasted blues Tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own Tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own Tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own Tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own Tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own Tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own...
The song that spoke to my heart after every relationship I ever had from 2000-2012. I would get high and drive my sleepy, anxious, incestuous friends along the hidden and far reaching lost back roads of California's redwood curtain. I hold out my hand. 'Lets go on this adventure together. As we have done many times before. The journey could be long and sad at times, but we will arrive there together. You will not be alone.'
Lyrics: Treated you like a rusty blade A throwaway from an open grave Cut you loose from a chain gang And let you go And on the day you said it's true Some love holds, some gets used Tried to tell you I never knew It could be so sweet Who could ever be so cruel, Blame the devil for the things you do It's such a selfish way to lose The way you lose these wasted blues These wasted blues Tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own That it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own When the moon is a counterfeit Better find the one that fits Better find the one that lights The way for you When the road is full of nails, Garbage pails and darkened jails And their tongues Are full of heartless tales That drain on you Who would ever notice you You fade into a shaded room It's such a selfish lose The way you lose these wasted blues These wasted blues Tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own Tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own Tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own Tell me that it's nobody's fault Nobody's fault But my own...
Any addiction and habit of action, yes. What person doesn't go through this in one form or another? You're not alone, by far! Much love, keep strong and on track.
From all songs using lyrics Nobody's fault, Beck lands truly with his own song for his fans. I find Beck delicate, rough and sexy in this one but did he write this song himself as well ?.. he must have, ingeniously !
Sea Change is one of my favorite Beck albums. Mellow Gold is also at the top of my list. Mellow Gold has got a completely different vibe from Sea Change, and it may be near the top of my list because of "Baby Duck Syndrome", (because it's the first Beck album I ever bought), but I still love it to this day. I read somewhere that Beck produced Sea Change after he split up with his long-time compatriots and fellow band members. If that's true, you can hear it in the lyrics and music composition.
Here's my head again, took this with my old samsung samsung 3000ad. it was my 96th SDcar, those fuckers always break.Mind you I do hang em from about 600 ft from a drone, and sometimes they plummit to good old mother earth, aint't gravity a bummer?
And Layne Staley, I would add. There's a real cutting and bleeding vulnerability here that is similiar to Layne's music -- Layne's vocals and songwriting. Layne's technical vocal range and astonishing depth are one. As is the case with Beck in this particular song. They're completely different obviously, but both musically brilliant in this way.
Same era. However, this song came after Cobain's passing, I believe. It was a time after angsty grunge to a time of resolution. It was the end of a decade-Iong acid trip.
Stop making everything about Kurt fucking Cobain. I don't know how his fans manage to inject him everywhere even when he's irrelevant. This is insanely more melodic than any of the grimmey, angsty stuff Cobain would've wrote.
Mutations was a bit hard to like after the all out party vibe of Odelay. This was the one song that truly grabbed me when I bought the CD. Still love it.
IT sounds like a Beatles song from like '66, when George Harrison was doing the Indian / Rasha / sitar stuff. I really like this! Kinda like "Within You Without You"
I appreciate the incarnations if this artist. I’m thrown to Beatles! But, it is all Beck. Who has the songs that can soothe my soul. Such a scattered mind in musicality, but, it is all relevant to me!! So !
Thank you for the kind comment. They're very rare these days. I am doing much better today. Spent all day with my daughter, Gods antidepressant, orrr hemorrhoid.... depending in the day :)

Outer Range introduced me with this beautiful song.
The show keeps getting better once you’ve been drawn in.
me too
The same happened to me
Here we are. Good show.
one of my favorite songs ever. similar to certain Zepplin tunes as it Never gets old. it is haunting & beautiful & so powerful
Watching Outer Range? I had to hear it again after hearing it at the end of S2 E5.
Beck is simply a genius!!
I love that the guitar begins in the centre of both stereo channels, but then slowly moves to the left so as to leave room for the sitar on the right channel. It's a nice subtle detail that makes the song feel more dynamic.
Never realized 25 years ago this song was so good!
It’s the down timing on this song. I went through a long Beck period, really breathed life into some epic feelings. Thank you Beck.
I love the influence that's heard here to what it makes it to this day when it was released. Sure you can hear this band or that but no one else is Beck. Listen to his different songs and remixes. No one else did what Beck did. His soul resonates through ages and places and people. Aho.
Man I love this album so much. Start to finish, perfection.
Yes it is...Odeley got all the radio play..but Mutatations got all my stereo play.
"Who could ever be so cruel (as to) blame the devil for the things you do". One of the most powerful lines I have ever heard in a song.
Hauntingly atmospheric. Sticks with you like an emotion you had right before you woke up from dreaming...
Roxy Brooks Word. That is exactly what i am trying to convey. It is music of feelings and sensations and memories.
Roxy Brooks Agreed; and quite poetic as well. ;)
Roxy Brooks perfectly put
My exact sentiments. This is a song that does this to me, too. It's like an astral embrace upon wakening.
This song is excellent on so many levels. The lyrics are simple, melencholy, wistful, wise... The melody is hypnotic, but not like it puts you to sleep, more that the music sounds like free-flowing thoughts or sensations inside your head. Sounds like a jungle or a dream. This song captures something so familiar to my experience of the world. Beck, you are the grooviest cat there is!
I would kill to hear Layne Staley sing this song.
Beck's masterpiece.
Jennifer Majewski I MISS LAYNE
Wow now that would be amazing
Oh man, never thought about it but yeah, totally !!
beck nails it, but holy shit i've always felt this
Brilliant! He'd be perfect. Of course, hard to think of a song that wouldn't benefit from Layne's incredible voice. Miss Layne!
Beck man! best of the best! year after year , album after album.
My favorite top 20 songs of all time. 37 and it’s like hearing it for the first time at 19 (fucking magical time).
"when the road is full of nails, garbage pails, and darkened jails" Also gives me the bumps. It's just a perfect song from start to finish.
Such a beautiful, haunting song.
This is just a work of art...period.
I'm going through a breakup, and after listening to this song I finally feel like I can move on. The heart aches, but it's nobody's fault but my own.

"Tell me that "It's nobody's fault but my own""
I, too, fell in love with this after a severe breakup.

sing the harmonies
you will rise again
"When the moon is a counterfeit
Better find the one that fits
Better find the one that lights
The way for you"
Sea Change and Morning Phase, are both masterpieces.
Not arguing your point, but this song is off Mutations. Which is also a masterpiece😊
Sea Change is another that I value deeply, too. His earlier, Earthly tunes really capture my soul's ear. The rawness is hard to shake from the mind.
The paradox of this song is that Beck has constructed it one harmonic layer upon another, yet even with all those layers he achieves a shimmering transparency.
Noe Berengena fuckin A
Noe Berengena What a douche
pretentious turd
i don't have the words to say what an amazing song i think this is. wow
One of my all time favourite songs. Gorgeous song.
this is genius...such a great instrumentation...its floating me back to myselfe
Tre Bor YES!!! That is it exactly.
I never knew it could be so sweet.
This caught my attention from the very beginning. Its beautiful, lush. A real detour from his usual. I really like it.
One of the best songs ever
5 thumbs down? must suck to be deaf!Beck is a genius.
Treated you like a rusty blade
A throwaway from an open grave
Cut you loose from a chain gang
And let you go
And on the day you said it's true
Some love holds, some gets used
Tried to tell you I never knew
It could be so sweet
Who could ever be so cruel
Blame the devil for the things you do
It's such a selfish way to lose
The way you lose these wasted blues
These wasted blues
Tell me that it's nobody's fault
Nobody's fault
But my own
Tell me that it's nobody's fault
Nobody's fault
But my own
When the moon is a counterfeit
Better find the one that fits
Better find the one that lights
The way for you
When the road is full of nails
Garbage pails and darkened jails
And their tongues
Are full of heartless tales
That drain on you
Who would ever notice you
You fade into a shaded room
It's such a selfish way to lose
The way you lose these wasted blues
These wasted blues
Tell me that it's nobody's fault
Nobody's fault
But my own
Tell me that it's nobody's fault
Nobody's fault
But my own
Tell me that it's nobody's fault
Nobody's fault
But my own
Tell me that it's nobody's fault
Nobody's fault
But my own
Tell me that it's nobody's fault
Nobody's fault
But my own
Tell me that it's nobody's fault
Nobody's fault
But my own...
Thank god you were here!!! Beck is nearly unintelligible on this. 😃
This song is as close to perfect as any I have ever heard. Surreal.
Instrumental echoes of the Doors' "The End"
Everyone has influences, yes. I really love the Doors but Beck brings a new light.
The Beatles are also a big influence on this track
Masterpiece.
One of the best songs ever.
yes one of a kind I love the words
this is the best song of all time. (IMO)
Thanks Beck, I love this song,,Tullys Marine Canvas
I'll see him at the Primavera Sound Festival 2020 in Barcelona. So, so excited about it
Maybe not now... Something to look forward to after we hopefully get through the next few months...
@@complexlittlepirate3589 definitely. Hopefully things will get better soon, fingers crossed.
Thanks for enlightening me
Sublime.
one of his best
gorgeous
An amazing artist..
Perfect song just awesome..
Beck is so COOL man, he's the real Arty creative type!!!!!
now this is good music
The song that spoke to my heart after every relationship I ever had from 2000-2012.

'Lets go on this adventure together. As we have done many times before. The journey could be long and sad at times, but we will arrive there together. You will not be alone.'

My own personal soundtrack for going through heroin withdrawal again and again
You can get through it joseph, i believe in you!❤❤
Any addiction and habit of action, yes. What person doesn't go through this in one form or another? You're not alone, by far! Much love, keep strong and on track.
It's like his music comes from the music of the spheres or some strange golden land in a deep ocean of blue
It's a song about a plea to be humbled
AMAZING song
From all songs using lyrics Nobody's fault, Beck lands truly with his own song for his fans. I find Beck delicate, rough and sexy in this one but did he write this song himself as well ?.. he must have, ingeniously !
Amazing song.
Strong song...Deep.
One more thing, check out the song 'Debra'... what a groovy, sexy, charming Beck. Funny funny fun.
LOVE Debra! So fun and nicely packaged! It's like the song Prince forgot to write.
I think it's more of a Frank Zappa satire of a Prince song... but better than both of 'em
This entire album screams of Beatle's influence
Very hippyish influence, yes. He can span to different genres much like the Beatles, too, but in a modern sense. Share that love!
I hear some Mark Lanegan circa Whiskey for the Holy Ghost here.
lets be honest, you can say that about 100's of albums........they're the fucking Beatles for god sake
great song
guerolito right now is really making me boogie
Perhaps Beck's finest. And heaviest.
I THINK IT IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SONG IN THE WORLDS
Heartbreaking
Oh yea baby ~
superrrrrr
I feel identify with this song
best album yes
THIS is his best album.
❤
Yep it is, and its one of only a handful of songs i listen to on Mutations.
Sea Change is one of my favorite Beck albums. Mellow Gold is also at the top of my list. Mellow Gold has got a completely different vibe from Sea Change, and it may be near the top of my list because of "Baby Duck Syndrome", (because it's the first Beck album I ever bought), but I still love it to this day.

Charles Thomaston
He actually split up with someone mush loser to him...
...as in a girlfriend, who he discovered had an affair.
Here's my head again, took this with my old samsung samsung 3000ad.
it was my 96th SDcar, those fuckers always break.Mind you I do hang em from about
600 ft from a drone, and sometimes they plummit to good old mother earth, aint't
gravity a bummer?
I just float on this song x
Lisa B exactly! It's like meditation.
I think of all the musicians I love that are still alive, and maybe if I got to choose, I'd pick this boy first....
i agree, sir. my favourite song of his. Seachange album pretty damn good though
Cool.
21st century Beefheart! Genius!
Got a real strawberry fields forever feel about it....
Biggest musical Genius since John Lennon. Hands down. Thank you Beck.
thank you ...you make sense
And Layne Staley, I would add. There's a real cutting and bleeding vulnerability here that is similiar to Layne's music -- Layne's vocals and songwriting. Layne's technical vocal range and astonishing depth are one. As is the case with Beck in this particular song. They're completely different obviously, but both musically brilliant in this way.
Steve Masters john Lennon doesn't deserve to like Beck or Paul Mccartnys boots
Looks amazingly like Kurt in opening shot. Even the couch looks just like Cobain's last couch!
Keep going Beck. Kurt would be very proud of you.
Same era. However, this song came after Cobain's passing, I believe. It was a time after angsty grunge to a time of resolution. It was the end of a decade-Iong acid trip.
Stop making everything about Kurt fucking Cobain. I don't know how his fans manage to inject him everywhere even when he's irrelevant. This is insanely more melodic than any of the grimmey, angsty stuff Cobain would've wrote.

Sea Change is definitely his best album
Who could ever be so cruel? Blame the devil for the things you do.
Mutations by far his best album! IMO

genius Beck song
this song was on an HIV awareness compilation album I got years ago
lyrics to live by...
Could have been an on going Saga of Strawberry Fields... Hell; probably is!
When I get older, losing my hair, many years from now...
Fuuck, my depression was bad enough today. Switching to Hell yes...
Thank you for the kind comment. They're very rare these days. I am doing much better today. Spent all day with my daughter, Gods antidepressant, orrr hemorrhoid.... depending in the day :)
you sang it yesterday with Chris Martin
he played 2nd stage at Lollapalooza 1995
This his best song on his best album, Mutations...
Jumps over razorwire w/ ease.
Mooncat!
it's on Mutations
Beck is so weird but that is good, wired is inspirational!!!
Blaming the Devil for the things I do!!!
