Beck, a musician who has been active since the late 1980s, shared that his life revolves around creating music. He said he would continue making songs even if he had to take on a different job, like painting houses. Beck noted that his musical style changes from album to album, and he feels that the more introspective or "lonesome" side of his music reflects his true self, though he also enjoys the more energetic tracks found on albums like Loser or Odelay. He mentioned that he doesn't have any songs that are commonly played at weddings, such as "Uptown Funk," and joked about creating a wedding song for someone like Mark Ronson. Looking back, Beck recalled a 1994 MTV interview with Thurston Moore, which he described as chaotic and unpolished. He explained that a lot of the footage was never aired due to legal concerns. During the interview, Beck brought an old telephone and destroyed it with baseball bats, calling it a form of performance art. He also reflected on the challenges of being unconventional in his early career, noting that he often gave wild answers in interviews to avoid the monotony of standard questions. He described this as a youthful, energetic effort to challenge the predictable nature of television. Beck addressed the "slacker rock" label, calling it a simplistic way to describe a broader movement. He explained that in the late 1980s and early 1990s, underground music began to influence mainstream culture, shifting from polished sounds to something more raw and authentic. He said he never expected to have a long career in music and emphasized the importance of writing good songs. He noted that the catchy tunes from that era are now widely appreciated by fans. Beck described a "devil's haircut" as a style with a rockabilly flair, referencing a bizarre mullet seen in a video of early Australian punk musicians. He also mentioned having a collection of 1980s hairstyle photos that included many such unconventional looks. He spoke about the 1998 hit "You Get What You Give" by New Radicals, which he joked could have been directed at celebrities, including himself. He shared that he met the song's writer, Gregg Alexander, at a health food store and was surprised when he was asked to collaborate. Beck mentioned that he has recently seen the Dust Brothers, the producer duo he worked with on his 2005 album Guero, and noted that they have unfinished projects that might be released in the future. He explained that the Dust Brothers became too busy after the success of his Odelay album. He also discussed his guest appearance on the animated series Futurama, which he initially turned down but later accepted after encouragement from his band. Additionally, Beck shared that his favorite "shake your ass" song comes from the early 1980s funk era, featuring artists like Sly Stone and Prince. He also mentioned his involvement in the film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, where his song "Everybody's Got to Learn Sometime" was featured, chosen for its emotional depth and his personal connection with the director, Michel Gondry.
