    "comment": "The fourth track on 'Modern Guilt', Beck has talked about this song as a turning point in his sessions with Danger Mouse.\n\n\"I'd recorded about 10 or 15 songs and then I did the song 'Modern Guilt' and I remember my engineer [Drew Brown] and Danger Mouse just lighting up. It was the first time I got a reaction on anything we were working on. It just felt that there was something in that song that rang true for everyone around and what we were doing and it felt like it was definitely a point where it was like, \"OK, now we're on to something, this is what it's about.'\"\n\n\"After that, I started just getting rid of all the songs that sounded like they could be something that could be on 'Midnite Vultures' or 'Guero', things that were a bit more playful or humorous or however you want to qualify it, and kind of pursuing just the feeling that that song had,\" he says. \"So that's the song that really shaped the record. That was the first time I've ever done that. Where all of a sudden a song came up and it had such a distinctive feeling to it I just went with that.\"\n\nhttps://whiskeyclone.net/ghost/songinfo.php?songID=858",
