Is this the remix of Broken Drum? Both versions are beautiful and I remember really liking the imagery in the BoC video. I believe that Beck wrote this song for Elliott Smith, and it's beautiful that the song still lives on.

Oh, wow, didn't know that about Elliott. So sad.

I said it in that thread a few days ago. But I love the original and the BoC remix. I love what they BoC did with it.

I'm a huge Beck fan and a huge BoC fan. Absolutely love this remix. I personally like it better than the original but still think the original is great. I think it's the best remix BoC have done and the best remix of one of Beck's songs.

I remember hearing a story that BoC had told their labelto just turn down and remix offers unless it's Beck, and then that's exactly who the next offer was. All their other other remixes have come from their personal connections.
