Gotye

Gucci Little Piggy · 06-18-2012, 09:51 AM

Like Drawing Blood shows a lot of potential but shows even more inconsistency. Making Mirrors still doesn't knwo what style to pick but does it better IMO, especially because the songs are less dragging and therefor easier to ge tinto. Dont'get me wrong, I lvoe long songs, but on LDB they seemed dragging.

I'm also personally a fan of his electronic songs, especially those off Making Mirrors.

I love the groovy dub in this one, the autotune takes time to get used to but I love the way this song builds up.

One dark-ass song, especially wiht that video clip.

E: Oh, I'd also rather put this thread in the indie & alternative corner, one does not simply consider Gotye merely pop.

You pronounce it the same way as Gaultier, the fashion designer

I'm a big fan of Making Mirrors. Most of the songs are very different, which is awesome. In Your Light is a perfect song for the summer, and then I Feel Better sounds like it could have been made 20-30 years ago. State of the Art is probably one of the weirdest on the album, but I've decided I like it the more I've listened to it, the verse vocals are weird, but I like the chorus harmony.

Check out Learnalilgivinanlovin from his earlier album Like Drawing Blood, it's kind of like I Feel Better.

I'm excited to see where he goes from here.

Learnalilgivinanlovin is one of my favorite songs by him. It's totally up beat, but not in a hokey lalala kinda way. Puts me in a good mood everytime.

I believe it was Lateralus who sent me a link to his 2006 album a couple years ago. I listened to it in full today for the first time in awhile. Damn good. It's a shame people didn't take notice until his recent hit.
