From what I've read, "Loser" was big in the 90s... did he do anything else? I know Sea Change got some award.. but did he have any more radio success?

Devil's Haircut, Where It's At, Loser and Lost Cause were quite big over here and played on alternative and mainstream rock stations quite a bit. No idea if they did well over in the States or the UK.

I think "Devil's Haircut" and "Where It's At" {which seem to be everyone's favorites from Odelay!} had success in the UK.. but I'd heard no Beck back then, which was when I listened to a LOT of radio.

Hate to tell you Mate, but if they had much success in the U.K it was fleeting because i don't think i've ever heard a beck song on the radio.
To be fair i don't really like him (expect sex rules i think it's called).

Sex Laws was another one that did well (for an indie-rock singer) over here. I think our radio format is quite different to the US, so you do tend to hear a few tracks on the radio that wouldn't get airplay in the States.

Hmm.. Odelay! was on the top 50 albums ever released according to a UK poll or something... I figured that meant something.. oh well.
