everything is perfect in this performance. i mean every fucking thing is exceptional. not a note out of place. emotion through the roof. danceable to the max. and lyrics that actually mean something.
Way, way better than all the Justin Bieber crap all the stupid girls in the world like. Some people just forget legends like these and prefer the shittiest music being called music these days.
When you hear the album version of this song you think, "Wow, there's no way that this song would sound good live, it sounds so unique". Thanks for proving me wrong Gnarls Barkley. :)
I'm 62 years old and grew up in the '50's during the birth of soul and rock & roll. Gnarls is pretty good and damn sure not the first, nor "Simply The Best" as TINA sings it.
hey Bamtruk. any one with a simple record collection would know that.. but in these times where looks overrule the voice and clarity in a song. Gnarls comes across as a stand out artist... witch he is imho.. theres miles between him and other contemp. artists.
@crazycutz you do understand the name Gnarls Barkley is the collaboration of Cee Lo, the singer, and Danger Mouse, the producer/arranger? It's not a person
Sorry meathookcok - i meant "stand out artists" - and i was mostly talking about Cee-Lo's voice and not so much about the sound production. :) - witch are good as well but very unstable as a whole.. imho :)
I first heard about these guys with the song Crazy, absolutely loved it. Then I saw them front running the American Outfitters Concert a couple years back in Pittsburgh... I enjoyed them A LOT.
Got St. Elsewhere Deluxe and fell in love as soon as I popped it in. After constant listening I was really shocked that I missed so much of his word plays.
Very underrated artist this guy. So much of today's music is all about image and being a pimp/barbie and how many ringtones you can flog off to kids. MTV has a lot to answer for.
@HungryJack87 umm I'm sure it was MTV that introduced Gnarles Barkley to the populace. As well as Danger Mouse's other collaboration. Not defending MTV or anything, but shit's flawed son.
-_- That's... that's just not a very well constructed blanket statement. I'm not even going to bother naming names. Just think carefully before you speak. There ARE other great black artists that are not hip hop artists.
Try Janelle Monae or Santigold for example. Those are two black artists who make good music, in my opinion, who aren't hip hop artists. Women, at that.
The list would be longer if we were talking old school artists like Rick James, Curtis Mayfield, Prince and so on... but I digress.
@Extraneus3771 go to school and get a goddamn education! African-American artists basically created the music we listen to today, blues, jazz, rock, those 3 genres were the leading force that eventually split in sub genre's. ergo, Afro-Americans basically gave us music.
@Extraneus3771 Are you insane? Or just ignorant. Blacks INVENTED modern music. Literally every single song heard on the radio today is influenced by something a black man did eighty years ago. Go lick your own asshole.
Does he (Ceelo) know just how great a voice he has, and what an interesting and different vocal quality he has? I'll bet he has some idea. How about music fans; do they know? I don't think enough of them have heard of gnarls barkley. Play this or Crazy for them, and you'll have a convert; amazing to find something different that's also really good!
Dang this song sounds even better in this version, and its just cool to watch everybody rockin out. Really adds even more uplifting spirit to the song to watch the musicians in sync jammin great song wish there were more artist like him.
I love Cee-lo, his songs can rhyme like a rapper; but his lyrics are better. But, he can sing! So he is like, a singing rapper compared to the rappers like T-Pain, Lil Wayne and stuff who called themselves 'rappers'. For this, I love Cee-lo, and have mad respect for him.
I bet you went to clever school and graduated phi beta awesome and are now the super funny and well-liked C.E.O. of a super awesome mega-successful company. Thanks so much for brightening my day with your charming wit. May I pay you back in bullets to the knee cap? I'm so grateful.
