omg i believed the whole thing!! i fell for it like an apple from a tree the after ten times of watching the video on tv i found out the story was fake
It's kind of funny that the second guy is actually right. There is no Gnarles Barkley. The black guy is Cee Lo Green and the dude with the afro is Danger Mouse. Gnarles Barkley is only the name of the duo.
Hey I'm a young artist, and I really would like everybody to check out my original ballad on my channel entitled "Why Can't I Live in Your Heart." It's a quiet storm ballad that sounds sounds like a cross between Boyz II Men's "End of the Road," Mariah Carey's "Can't Let Go," and Vanessa Williams' "Save the Best for Last."
@freeride43ver actually 7. Dunklekuh81 explained why he disliked the video... and who knows the other 7 might have disliked it under the same circumstances.
i luv how dangermouse be just in the background just mindin his on business, i think its just so funny, hes has a blank stare the whole time on his face when the song is called smiley faces.
imagine they somehow made a time machine and sang parts of the song throughout historical events, and combined it into the song, i would do that if i had i time machine
this is a cool variation of "nememonicron" By aritistide. The devil was fooled and trapped in to a human form, over the years he becomes a doctor, a scientist. When he returns to his demonic form it is apparent that He had basically catalyzed every advancement humanity was held to.
For those whoe keep calling him "HE", Gnarls Barkley is a duo consisting of producer/DJ Danger Mouse and rapper/singer Cee-Lo of Goodie Mob, and Atlanta rap group.
I don't like Kurt Cobain if thats what you are inferring. Foo fighters are under appreciated because you never hear them on the radio or people talk about them.
doppelganster is a word I made up. it's from doppelganger but with ganster. I find it more appropriate for everybody copying toughness off each other. anyway.. it has nothing to do with Gnarls Barkley... :D
@nukedagod2379 naw there just needs to be a station where they play (real) music and videos from individuals such as them...as for BET, personally i would love to see REAL integration of music styles (mostly into Black culture) but the masses are all so mentally warped into opposition courtesy of the media. it'll never happen.
Gnarls Barkley does not actually exist, it is the combination of Cee-Lo (from Goodie Mob) and Danger Mouse (Brian Burton). Cee-Lo handles singing a dominant portion of the vocals. Danger Mouse handles the mixes. Anyway, all the stuff is incredible. Looking forward to their show in town here in about a month.
I love this, I'm not even a huge fan but this is a great video. Plus it had clips of The Beatles, The Clash, The Velvet Underground, David Bowie and Grandmaster Flash
This video is amazing. I love the respect they pay to the artists in the video. Duke Ellington...Beatles...Stones...The Clash...Grandmaster Flash..Bowie. Yes.
This song always makes me smile. It is almost impossible for me to pick a fav song from Gnarls, He is one of only 10 existing artists who can put out a cd that I can just play from beginning to end without having to skip a single track. The video is brilliant just like everyone I've seen.
It's actually a spoof of Woody Allen's mock documentary, Zelig from 1983. In which a man named Zelig (Played by Woody Allen) Appears in photographs and films. From important moments in history. Always appearing to be the same age. It's an unexplained mystery.
