“Crazy Beat” Was Compared To "Song 2" From The Band’s Self-Titled Album. XFM Described The Song As “Fatboy Slim Meets Middle Eastern Punk Rock … Energetic Punked-Out Rocker. But As Much As This Song Might Appeal To The Neo-DIY Set—complete With Its Jumpy Chorus And Lively Melody—Blur Are Anything But. If There’s One Thing Blur Are Known For It’s Lots And Lots And Lots Of Production. Norman Cook Aka Fatboy Slim Builds This Number With Tons Of Sound So There’s Always Another Active Level To Uncover.” According To Albarn The Song “started Off In Such A Different Way. The Nearest Thing I Could Compare It To Is A Really Bad Version Of Daft Punk. So We Got Sick Of It And Then Put In That Descending Guitar Line Over It To Rough It Up A Bit.” He Also Stated “It Had This Sort Of Mad Vocoder-Ish Vocal And The Melody Was Over A Real Sort Of Skanky Groove And Just This Almost Descending Semi Tonal Guitar. The Melody Worked Over It And It Was Amazing Coz It Shouldn’t Have Worked Another Little Magic Moment For Us.”
