beck - song reader, part one

On Dec. 11, Beck released an album entirely on sheet music titled Song Reader, with the intent that other people interpret the songs and perform them. Live renderings have happened already, all over the place.

I've decided to collect the best/most diverse performances that I can track down right now, 19 Jan. 2013, on Youtube, and post them here. You'll find the first 10 songs in this post. (One of them is actually Beck hisself!)

Song Reader, Part One:

    1. "Don't Act Like Your Heart Isn't Hard"


    2. "I'm Down"


    3. "Saint Dude"


    4. "Do We? We Do"

    5. "Eyes That Say 'I Love You'"


    6. "Now That Your Dollar Bills Have Sprouted Wings"


    7. "Please Leave a Light on When You Go"


    Here's tracks 11-20.
    8. "Rough on Rats"


    9. "Old Shanghai"


    10. "Sorry"
