MUSIC THAT MATTERS – “Lyric of the Day”

(Music Cut #1)

Once released on May 28th back in 1996…

the hook
“two turntables and a microphone”
was contagious.

Beck with “Where It’s At.”

(Music Cut #2)

By the way –

when Beck wrote the song…

he didn’t actually own turntables.

And he didn’t know how to DJ.

(Music Cut #3)

But fans took the lyric seriously –

and started bringing actual turntables to shows as gifts.

Meanwhile, Beck was touring
with acoustic guitars…

and zero DJ gear.

LYRIC OF THE DAY:
“Pulling out jives and jamboree handouts
Two turntables and a microphone
Bottles and cans, just clap your hands.” – Beck
