#126 - Echolocation #2: Listen To What You Eat
From the depths of Culture Rover's Ipod shuffle, Beck's "Satan Gave Me a Taco" starts with a nasty bite to eat and, a dozen verses later, ends with a burnt out rock star trying to understand how he got from point A to point B and back to point A again.
The song cuts, montage-like, through a life with an absurdist joy that relates fate not only to hunger, but also to indigestion.
