    "comment": "Beck: \"We like to call it boogaloo rather than funk. It's inspired by the '60s British TV style. You know, where you have this really over-active bassline like some guy's popped a couple of pills and just really gone for it? There is a black 70s element, but it's not quite laid back enough. Oh there's nothing laid back about 'Sexxlaws'.\"\n--\n\"Sexx Laws\" itself is a song that was built from one of Beck's on-stage ad-libs: \"I wanna defy the logic of all sexx laws\" was an occasional war-cry during some concerts during the end of 1997 and 1998.",
