This is my favorite Beck song. There is something utterly sublime about it, simultaneously ethereal and tragic. It's distressingly beautiful.

@belleepoque4597

@Soul I had never heard of River Man, so I decided to give a listen. It's a beautiful song, and I hear some similarities in a general way, but I don't hear it as a copy.

I enjoy walking abandoned railroads and ghost towns , old bridges, tunnels, finding old relics while listening to this song. With all of today's insanity, songs like this help me keep on the quiet path of solitude and satisfaction.

I have to be in the mood to listen to it because it's so sad. But it's amazing! What a beautiful song. Honestly, the whole Sea Change album is so, so good. For the longest time, I couldn't listen to this song without tears falling down my cheeks. I can now, but if the mood hits, I still cry. Just too beautiful.

Yes, Ginger. Agreed. I remember where I was and how it affected me when I 1st played the whole album and subsequently kept playing it. It was 2003 in mid state and upstate New York on a business trip. It was profound.

È sorprendente. Non credevo che Beck fosse in grado di tirar fuori un capolavoro come Sea change. Bravo 👏👏👏

@flipsyde24

I've been a beck fan since sea change was released. that is one of the best albums of all time. I was only 8 or 9 when it came out.

@blurry67

10y↑57

People who think this is "unusual" for Beck, don't know him. He didn't start with Loser, as many had come to know him, thinking that was all there was to him. Listen to songs like Hollow Log, Gettin' Home, It's All in Your Mind (the original version, which is 10 years older than the one that appeared on Sea Change), The Way It Seems, Rowboat, Feel The Strain of Sorrow Never Ceasing... all written in his early 20s with the same melodic sensibility found here (and in most of Mutations, for the matter... forgotten about Nobody's Fault But My Own, We Live Again, Dead Melodies, Sing It Again?). This was the album he had wanted to make for a long time.

@alainvosselman9960

5y↑6

An assessement that is at the same time an ode to a very talented musician ! I felt exactly the same way when people started booing him at a festival here in Belgium... He had to play 'loser' before the public realized who was in front of them...by then (1994) i was already very kean to see him live. And it wasn't the first time i've seen people throw bottles at him. Actually for a long time he went unnoticed for the true talented and gifted person he realy is. I believe the album 'midnite vultures' is what created the right splash for him to get acknowledgement from people such as David Bowy and others. Saw him two times and bought all of his albums (about 10 ) untill i took on a jazz study and started taking more interest in that genre. Every single one of those cd's was epic and drenched in authenticity.

@lucianlandry8332

You can thank (or could, he's dead now) artist Jeremy Blake for that. It's much like his other work, which is amazing, some of which you can find on YouTube.

You're just jamming on the feeling of incredible sadness and hollowness. Two very consuming emotions. Nothing wrong with jamming on an emotion. Emotion is our visceral response to things we encounter.

@soulone22

Maybe if I could just reach far enough. Strain a bit harder. Squint and put my hand out, that I may be able to taste my childhood youth just for a moment once again. Looking in the distance I see children with their mother and father. I think that might be me. Mom? Dad? is that you? Take my hand, you have been so kind and loving. It is so good to see your ageless faces for this brief moment. Take my hand because I do not want to let go. Don't let go just yet, because I have not had enough time to tell you how much I love you both. Don't let go, Please don't ever go.

Not as often as you but very frequently. Sea Change is my favorite album of all time. And this song in particular really soothes my mind. There's nothing like listening to it while walking on my school campus or listening to this song on repeat as I fall asleep. Every song on the album invokes various feelings from me. If you've never heard the bonus track Ship in a Bottle then I strongly suggest you do, such a bittersweet song, a shame it didn't end up on the album.

This song reminds of the time Beck broke up with his girlfriend and wrote an entire album about it.

@DS-ju2sq

IeI he did for this aIbum

@ingsoc3125

11y↑31

I think he's just making an observation on how cruel people are to each other. I saw someone else write once that it's Beck finally figuring out everything about the world and not being happy with the result.

@barneymiller6204

Sea Change IS a break-up album.

@wasabihansen

@johnps65 It seems to me that nearly every song on this album was influenced by Nick Drake in some way or other... I'm sure Nick wouldn't mind! In this song, it's the string arrangement that reminds me of him. This is a great song, but sooo dark. Totally apropos considering what Beck was going through at the time.

Play Nick Drake's "Riverman" just before playing this song.
It's like Beck picked up where he left off.

@xeshtaed

9y↑8

MitchellJJonesVideo Holy shit, I was just wondering why those strings sound so familiar. Yeah his voice also sounds like Nick's here.

@lindahermer9857

9y↑9

MitchellJJonesVideo I agree, Mitchell -- The chords are almost identical, and the swell of the strings is deeply similar too. I'm not positive it was a direct rip-off, but as a minimum it was profoundly inspired by Drake. Beck plays Drake during some of his sets so we know he is familiar.

@lindahermer9857

9y↑2

Linda Hermer I also meant to point out that it's in the same key. This, combined with all the other similarities, is a problem.

@MJJpwns777

9y↑7

Linda Hermer I'd say in no way did he rip off Drake, but he seems to have taken inspiration. It doesn't seem like a stretch to say that most modern folk/alternative folk artists have been influenced by the short lived greatness that was Nick Drake.

@lindahermer9857

9y↑2

MitchellJJonesVideo I agree,, but I still think the songs are much more similar than Pharrell Williams' and Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" and Marvin Gaye's "Got to GIve It Up" despite the jury award in the latter case!

What's the meaning of this song? Is it about becoming crazy and slipping into nothingness, or is it more about leaving the world, society, etc and sorta of becoming one with nature? Really great song, I just don't know the exact meaning of it.

@thetinys13 It's for the best though that Beck isn't swarmed by millions of fans due to pop hits though. It's funny how when something is played over and over on the radio it can ruin your enjoyment of the material. As long as he stays interesting to listen to, that's alright by me.
