Beck/Lost Song

Question
I caught the end of a great song on the radio ages ago which I thought the dj said was from Becks `Mellow Gold` album. Having bought the album it wasn`t there and I can`t find it on any other Beck album. The chorus is `Don`t let the sun catch you crying`. Can you help at all please?
You were right, the song you heard wasn't from Mellow Gold. It was "Deadweight," and can be found on either the Life Less Ordinary soundtrack or the "Deadweight" import single with two other songs (SA-5 and Erase the Sun). It's a cool tune. If you like that song, I'd recommend anything by Os Mutantes, Caetano Veloso and Tom Ze. Just check the import section under Brazil. Also, you might want to find Beck's Mutations album and the "Cold Brains" EP off that album.
Take it easy, but take it,
Keith

Expertise
I specialize in Beckist recordings. As a matter of fact, I, myself, personally, am a Beckist. I enjoy helping those who are just beginning in their path to a Beckian existence and understanding. It is only by pursuing such ends (those of the Bekkah), that we may all bask in the cosmic rush, the immense radiance, the celestial glow, the vast space of brilliant warmth that we can begin to grow, to meet our full potential as human beings, to cast away all that has ever come before and live a pure life of devotion to pop star fanaticism, idolatry, and general fervor for the corporate invasion, plundering, and saturation of our minds, spirits, intellects, and noggins. I can answer your questions, for I am a true believer and make tapes that spread the sound, words, sonic profusion, oral emanations, and lyrical mischievery of the messiah, savior, redeemer, rescuer, and lord, only and only, seen and seen and seen.
