"Little worse for wear, but I'm wearing it well."

A lyrical gem from Beck.

The drum and bass play basically the same fun, funky part for the whole song. Many songs have adopted this principle now: One progression that varies simply by changing singing melody and the supporting instrumentation. It's a technical challenge all its own but I have an uneasy feeling that pop stars today do this to avoid wasting more than one profitable chord progression per purchasable unit. Ironic that the lyrics of Beck's song seem to criticize mass-produced plasticity.
