"Broken Train" is a song by the American musician Beck and was released on his 1999 album Midnite Vultures. The song was composed in the key of D-flat major.[1]
Rolling Stone wrote that the song "details anarchy outside the privileged zone".[2]
Title change
The song was originally named "Out of Kontrol", and promos of the album even use that title. During the first concert of the Midnite Vultures on November 1, 1999, Beck explained that he changed it at the last minute because the Chemical Brothers had already used the title.[3]
