About 2 Meter Sessions
====================
Based in the Netherlands, 2 Meter Sessions is an independent, ongoing (new) music platform with a great legacy. Monthly we film 3 to 4 sessions with promising and breakthrough acts from all over the world.
Many well-known acts have visited the show; from James Taylor, Elliott Smith and David Crosby to Damien Jurado, Ben Howard and Josh Ritter, via Radiohead, Nirvana, Coldplay and Foo Fighters. Archive footage can regularly be seen in (theatrical) documentary movies, like “Mystify: Michael Hutchence” (with footage of our session with INXS, filmed in 1997), “Heaven Adores You” (with footage of our session with Elliott Smith, filmed in 1998) and “All I Can Say” (with footage of our session with Blind Melon, filmed in 1993).
The show started back in 1987 by radio presenter Jan Douwe Kroeske. On his popular national radio show he persuaded New-Zealand band Crowded House to play a couple of songs. The response of the public was so great, that 2 Meter Sessions quickly became a household name. In 1993, the show made a successful transition to national television. From there the show became a national phenomenon, for over 10 years, with filmed sessions of new talent, breakthrough acts and arrived career artists. Almost a million of 2 Meter Sessions cd’s were sold in the Netherlands.

#beck #debra
"Lady, step inside my Hyundai." Best line in this song. I once knew a man who was (and still is) the living embodiment of this song. A legend in his own mind . . .
Fuck your Mitsubishi I've a horse outside.
I think I know him too lol. He lives off Venice Beach.
That's so sweet Sandra with those mysterious eyes.
Yup thats me
I often use this line with my shitty Suzuki. 60% of the time, it works every time. ❤
There is no one on the planet like Beck. I was fortunate to have seen the Midnite Vultures tour and he blew my head off. One of the best shows I’ve ever seen.
After seeing this performance from Beck, I can see how much IDKHOW NAILED their cover of Debra. IDKHOW doesn't do Beck dirty.
YESS
So true
yezzir
This shit looks like it was recorded yesterday haha
Anthony Pompa I thought the same wtf
Anthony Pompa or eric andre’s show
@@edgutierrez501 watch Devil's haircut from this session. That's some eric andre shit right there
5 years later this is still valid
Prince is timeless... ; )
Beck is the best thing to have come out of the '90s.
Must agree with you about Beck
You got to go back further brother do some research he goes back further than that he was with another man a play with Street people that he randomly ran into......
Jonny Dee you spelt Kurt Cobain wrong
@@L.C.Sweeney I love me some Jeff Buckley too (a lot) but ... only 1 album. Very very sadly. Overall I think the argument can be made for Beck given the output. And the fact it's continued for 25 years longer at this point.
Panacea MCK
Kurt Cobain started in the 80s so your argument is not valid.
I remember buying the "Midnight Vultures" CD back in '99, putting this song on in the car outside the store, and almost getting in a wreck from laughing so hard. My travelling partner and I had to play that sucker four times straight, which is the mark of a genius song. A few years later, The Flight of the Conchords came out with their show on HBO, and I couldn't help but think, "This group has based their entire routine off of "Debra"!".
MV is an amazing album. Nicotine and Gravy... whew.... "she looks so Israeli"
When he's singing most beautiful girl in the room... That was my first thought when I heard this song lol
*Flight of the Conchords is (were) such an underrated band. 👍👏*
One of the best vocal ranges of any male singer. I own all of his albums.
14 octaves
doing his best prince impression, and doing it well
Midnight Vultutes is the best Prince album not made by Prince
Vincent Monroe I have always said the same thing! This song in particular!
Premonitions, lord, prince rest in piece.
Midnite Vultures is equal parts tongue in cheek and homage for sure.
@@thebrownsalamander the best prince album not made by prince was done by outkast. But this song is close.
"I cold step to you, with a fresh pack'o gum." Such an awesome line.
One of my favorites too.
My fave!
This song was the primary secret ingredient of inspiration for the entire discography of the Flight of the Conchords.
Really? Coz I believe it
The smiling sax player gets me every time lol 😂
Same, that guy is awesome :)
thank you IDKHOW for showing this to me
sameee
I seriously feel like people don’t talk about Beck’s insane vocal range enough. Like he goes sooo fuckin low normally, and then just kills the high notes in this song. Especially that goddamn last note of the chorus.
I keep trying to cover this song myself, but that friggen note is so friggen just out of reach 😂
Beck is one artist who never ceases to amaze. From his massive array of musical coordination, he is always fresh and never redundant. So talented and yet underrated keeps him in the creative edge of genius.
Step into my hyundai... beautiful
Mateo Mahan LOL
And that face
Yeah baby elantra
Jamie Lee Turdis lol
Gonna step to you with a fresh pack of gum…
Beck is brilliant. And this performance is one of my fav live performances. His vocals!! The band is so tight.
Beck is God. In Glendale.
Such range
He could probably still hit that today
the sax player is like "lol this guy crazy"
You forgot some lyrics at that point
You know when I picked up Mellow Gold back in the early 90`s I did not see Beck becoming the next Marvin Gaye.
this is one the coolest songs ever written. I know he talks about it being tongue-in-cheek... but he nailed it. I've listened to this song hundreds of times.
it has 20 years but looks fresh af. I adore Beck so much
F***ing incredible. I wonder if Prince ever heard it. Beck is the greatest musical genius since McCartney.
When I first heard the IDKHow cover, I actually didn't know it was a Beck song and was like "Dallon what are you on about"
Then I looked up the song and saw it was a Beck cover and said OHHHHHHHHH
The beauty of soul depicted by Beck. Thank you bro for being among us.
Sus
This band is so into it. Love it.
Was lucky enough to see him perform this in Cincy at the Taft Theater & they lowered a huge bed w/red satin sheets onto the stage for him to sing this on. One of my all time favorite Beck shows!
I saw that show. The bed made sense of the whole damn thing.
I was there also, not just a favorite Beck show one of my favorite shows period.
There were some real life spinal tap moments with that bed. Some nights it didn't come down. Or by the time it did come down the song would be over.
Yes! I saw that show too in Seattle. That was so cool!
@@kittenfuud Oh hell yeah, at the Mercer Arena, that show was greeeat.
This dude is crazy talented.
He's an original and that set it straight if you really know music period.
If you don't LOVE this I don't want to know you, full stop.
falsetto to the max baby.
masterpiece.
Get in.....;)....!
Always sounds to me like Beck doing a Prince ballad to prove he can do that too. Crazy talented.
The type of performance you have to watch over and over
Wow, This is amazing. And only 112,947 views???? WTF!!! What is wrong with this world!
Beck is hands down, one of the most underrated music artist to ever life.
This and Jenny by Flight of the Conchords would be the best slow jam back-to-back in human history.
I took the bate Ronan, you are a funny guy :) I laughed and found a new appreciation also in a band I have never heard until now ^^
I think the entire FOTC persona, for both Jemaine and Bret, might have come out of this one song. Also I think I'd have to add The Most Beautiful Girl to the jam.
@@bvaljalo in the whole wide room.
the best jams about a Jenny
Brand Nubian LADY
Been a fan for 26 years. This cat is awesome!
One of the greatest songs in history.
damn this should be a million views
This is seriously one of my all time favorite songs. The musicianship, his sincerity-- and the lyrics-- pure genius. There *is* that little sci-fi-ology thing, but it's not in the song, so it doesn't bother me. ;)
Good lord, it just turned 1000° degrees in here
I’ve got a single twin brother that would love to take you out for sushi
_This is a HIGHLY underrated song. And this live version is fire!🔥_
This is masterful.
I remember when Beck won an award and a certain rap artist called him out as no talent and someone else "should' have won, then Beck replied and said lets battle any instrument you want- dude backed down right away!
He always reminded me of Prince and Mick Jagger in this song. Very underrated artist.
He is sooooooo good, he has very visible musical influences from Jagger, Prince, Bowie but those are all amazing artists that need to influence artists like Beck.
loved this back then! Very Prince
I love this. It always makes me smile. Now excuse me, I must be off to go change my name to Debra.
never heard him sing like this
Beck being a character. Having some fun with it, playing around. Love it. Still making a song with very silly lyrics sounds really cool.
I like this to infinity…… 😍BECK
4:02 fuckin lost it when he just dipped out of frame like that 😆
2020 i like this song😍🔥
Wow, that was amazing. His vocal range is insane
Baby driver somehow made me love this song more
Great song, great live version. Beck you're a GENIUS
LOVE SONG OF A GENERATION
I wanna get wit' Beck... DAMN!
and his Sister
@@alosadav I think her name is Debra
Ain't doing a Prince impression. This is funky soul love music ❤️❣️❣️💙
If you don't understand English you never understand what about this song, but when translate it you will be more impressed than before)
hace años de esta joya, envejecio demasiado bien, i love it
Really beck you’re drivin me crazy
The bread butters itself to this song..
a song that makes you groove and laugh. one of my favorites.
This comes off as a spoof, but is actually a brilliantly written song
my heart is melting
Who knew Beck had this range?
This has always been one of my favorite Beck song's anybody can be and I have been in those shoes❤
I used to put this on when my roommate was getting down with her boyfriend. I was just trying to help set the mood.
It's got that Prince meets Jeff Buckley vibe!
Fucking love Jeff Buckley. Is that why I like this song so much?
How have I never seen this before. Incredible.
Thank you God 4 BECK !
This is beautiful and sweet and fun and Beck is adorable. So happy to have found this!
Beck's best band
I call this Shameless Soul music lol
Shit is deep af
@@hellfeather2011 you misspelled “racist af”
@@angelaoren2155 woah woah, how is this racist?
@@angelaoren2155 elaborate?
@@saladhands1127 these days people will call random things racist for clout
Beck the Dali of this century.
Brilliant, massive, brutally smart, a class song for a great all styles musician. Influences from all over, including Prince.
Hits the Spot. Beck has been part of my favorite musical trifecta, - along with Pink Floyd and The Orb.
Hay Bale Parallax My friends tried to turn me in to The Orb a few times & I just didn’t get it. But thanks to you, ima give it another shot.
Fluffy little clouds * the skies, they went on forever - err, something? I thought it was a fever dream, could this be The Orb that you mean?
Oh maestro!!!! Bring it on home BAYYYBEEE
This is legit fantastic
the drummer in the background from 5:42 to the end is FEELING IT
never knew he had that kind of range.
What a great performance of this track from all involved! Helluva solid band he's got here, and he really got into the zone himself here!
ima huge fan of beck
So good
Loved Beck then, love Beck now.
The sax player is having the time of his life. 3:05 That beck guy is crazy as hell.
This is absolute class, Beck.... Musical genius:)
You will never understand how close to home and my life that these lyrics hit me. So ridiculous it's scary.
Man got some lungs.. That's for sure.. Grew up on the early albums, such a super talent!
Such a superb song. Great brass too.
Beck is epic this is one of my favorite of his performances
I can never get over from this song, Beck is truly an artist! Sexy vibe overflows everytime I listen to this!
This guys range of music is vast. But his voice in this one is the best. And I really did not think he had it in him on this one.
I remember this tour like it was 1999!
This gifted hansen dude ... experienced a debra performance live on tour in Germany back in the days, still thankful. Thank you for the great music(wo)manship of all these people on stage ... pure genius enriched with a juicy, fruity comedy sparkle ... 🙏🙏🙏
are the thumbs downs from prince fans?? this is just wonderful,
1:56
He ALWAYS hits that note live.. amazing.
Pure genius.
Drummer tearin' it up yo!
Now i wish my name was Debra, and that I worked at JcPenny.
Alyssa P. 😂😂😂
it would be your sister that did tho
ripelivejam No, you see, Jenny is the one that works at JcPenney, Debra is her sister. And he wants to get with both of them, so by working at JcPenney AND being called Debra, you’ve got both your bases covered.
@@valeriae6053 you've solved the Beck Algorithm! well done! I'm off to work at yep JC Penney. later.
Step inside my Hyundai 😏
Fuckin fantastic song and performance!!!
