I'll be happy if it's only half as good...which it probably won't be.

I know what you mean, it's almost impossible that it lives up to my expectations...

St.Elsewhere is a good solid album and recieved plenty of Juice bar airplay at time of release. I will definitely check out their follow up.

thats funny that you bring that news up....I was listening to St. Elsewhere yesterday......

Gnarls Barkley's vid isn't released yet so this will have to do for now.

New release 'Run'.
Apparently, the upcoming video features a Justin Timberlake cameo, as a geek...no change there then.

Yeah I like it a lot. I love that snare sound, it has a real lo fi dirty 60s soul sound.

The new single's been leaked, and I think it sounds great! It's not the megahit that crazy was, but I have faith from that single that Odd Couple will be a good follow up to St. Elsewhere

Admittedly I have not the heard the whole St. Elsewhere album but I DON"T WANT TO!!!! I find Gnarls Barkley to be beyond annoying, I can't stand them. If I never hear that damn Crazy song again it will be too soon. Lose the lame costumes and **** too, there's a difference between being creative and original and being schtick disguised as creative and original....JMO

Crazy was a fairly unoriginal song but their hook is their simplicity. In this day and age of RnB meaning booty shakin' unoriginal pap, Gnarls Barkley delivered an album that revelled in the art of the song and classic composition. I happen to love the fact that they fly in the face of convention while making completely commercial music.

i can respect that. i don't write or read music, i don't play an instrument I suppose I wouldn't know a great composition if it hit me in the face. i just know what i like and what i don't.
