gnarls barkley - st elsewhere

[Rip Round'n Roc]

even though its a little short, i still like it alot, cee-lo sounds great and the beats (by dangermouse) compliment his singing. there are alot of creative songs on this album

my favorite songs at the moment include
crazy (the smash single)
just a thought (sounds like a dj shadow joint)
transformer (lots of energy in this one)

but overall the album is very strong and consistent from start to finish

finally i found this video on youtube of this dude mashing the beasties 'check it out' with 'crazy' on his turntables

[Mr Films]

the whole Danger Mouse + whoever thing is a tad 'meh' for me.

DangerDoom got old. fast.

[Deep_Sea_Rain]

I haven't had a listen to the album just yet, but I love Cee-Lo, he shined in The Goodie Mob (one of my favorite rap groups ever) and he's a very creative dude. I became a fan of Danger Mouse from listening to the DangerDoom album, so Gnarls looks to be excellent...

[Kid Presentable]

I just got it. The title track is my favourite. I was really primed for disappointment, too.

edit: Triple J had been playing 'Just a Thought' for the last few months, but never said what it was called. It's an amazing track.

[yeahwho]

I've been listening to this gnarls barkley stuff the past month, it seems to be everywhere I go either on the net or here in Seattle. I don't quite get it. I'll probably keep listening politely until it passes by and never actually buy it.

I mean whats next? gnarl malone?

tragic johnson.

I'm loving Feng-Shui. The beat is like an 808 mash-up of whatever break turns up in Professor Booty. Somebody with break expertise?

[Thundercracker]

hey! great remix for check it out!
is there an mp3 version i can download?

[adam_f]

At first I thought it said Charles Barkley, and I was all like 'WHHHHAAAA?' and now I'm more 'Oh.'

[Guy Incognito]

Just seen a really good version of Crazy on Top of the Pops - everyone dressed as pilots. The tune was all stripped down with elec piano and drum fills and that just left cee-lo to belt it out - loads better than the single version

[Ally Al]

Bought it today, very good album i think. Nice to hear something a bit different

It's good driving music.

[Ally Al]

It's good driving music.


you're not wrong KP

St Elsewhere is my jam at the moment, oh and smiley faces. Just a fucking GOOD album i think

you hear any of the cee-lo/ plant life collab tracks yet ? I've got one, gangsta boogie and thats funky as fuck!!

Yeah it's wicked.

St. Elsewhere was the track that I really dug first time round. It's moved into being Feng Shui ( you must hear a small piece of Professor Booty in the beat) and Who Cares as my favourite shit atm.

And I could go on and on and on.....

Feng shui is heat but TOO short mate thats the only thing. I'l, have another listen because i'm sure i have the prof booty break somewhere

Who cares is a great song, possible 2nd single, what do you reckon ?

Yeah, would be that or Just a Thought.

[Ally Al]

Yeah, would be that or Just a Thought.

i love just a thought BUT it was the b-side to crazy over here. transformers would be a great single, can't see it though

i think there's alot of people who are going to buy the album on the strength of crazy and be like WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS CRAZY NOISE!!!!

[saml]

well, crazy is ten times as good as smiley faces, smiley faces is ten times as good as any other track on the album, and more than half of the tracks are garbage. UK HYPE!

There is one average track (Gone Daddy Gone) on there, but when it crops up in the play-through of the disc, it's not so terrible. That's the benefit of it being short; it really works well as a complete album. From turning on the projector, to the film running out at the end.

[Gareth]

for some reason 'crazy' reminds of something moby would've made about 5 years ago.

[Kid Presentable]

The performance someone mentioned eariler. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=wcOabajz8I8&search=Gnarls%20barkley)

[beastieangel01]

smiley faces (y)

I was playing it a couple weeks ago and my mom totally said "weee I like moby"

[Ally Al]

smiley faces (y)

smiles faces is a great song, there's a recent of compilation of mine with it on, i'll send it and you can check it out

[Ally Al]

i like Crazy very much and i like the new acoustic version (sung by some geezer i can't remember the name of) just as much


the album is very good if you haven't got it yet let me know

hows the funk ?

[Ally Al]

bad news, only managed to download a couple. the rest stalled during downloading for some reason. i tried to start the downloads again and they've stalled again, so i don't know what to do

if you let me know which ones were ok i'll upload the others again on yousendit, it's a lot easier to use

[Ally Al]

just checked properly and i only managed to get Put Your Glide In Your Stride And Dip In Your Hip.


ok seeing as it's you, i'll sort the rest out BUT outside of the funk comps did earth sounds and synthesized soul work ok ? They were both yousendit links

[Ally Al]

i know, and i still had problems with them :(


:confused: leave it with me

[Ally Al]

it's not because my connection cuts out either, at least i don't think so cos i can still view web pages.


i've sent a couple of links for you to try again, let me know how it goes, hopefully they'll work this time

[DIGI]

Just a Thought and Transformer are my shits.

[b-grrrlie]

I might be a bit confused, but wasn't he called Cee-lo who did "I wish I was a little bit taller"?

no b-rrrrlie, that was skee lo

"Walkin' down the block and you're like, 'Whoooooooo?!'"

Thanks for that link Kid. I missed them on Conan Thursday night and have been looking for a link. Have you seen that performance floating around?

Thanks alot Kid. I finally bought the cd today.

[Yeti]

That was classic. Performing in robes and towels with the rubber duck on the keyboards:D
Brilliant

Thanks for that link.

[Deep_Sea_Rain]

possible 2nd single, what do you reckon ?

According to Gnarls MySpace page, "Smiley Faces" will be the next single. Not my favorite track, but it's still good.

"Crazy", Boogie Monster", "Transformers", "Storm Comin" are my favorite tracks on the disc. Overall, good album, I was pleasantly surprised.

[DIGI]

Who Cares? should be the next single, but then what the fuck do I know. It took a bit for this gem to sink in.

[adam_f]

The only cd I've ever just given away after one listen. I don't care if it would grow on me, I was just ashamed to even have it at the time. Like my Kriss Kross album.

[b-grrrlie]

I'm gonna see them in about 10 days at Hultsfred festival

[Tzar]

am i the only one who doesn't like this album? just does not click for me. it reaks of "i'm trying to over-throw the gorillaz".

waste of a post, i know.

[Randetica]

yes you are the only one

[Tzar]

just making sure.

/leaves

[adam_f]

You're not the only one. I like Cee-Lo rapping, not singing.

[Randetica]

well done

when tzar doesnt trust me anymore then who does?

[hpdrifter]

I really really like this album.

Maybe its wierd, but I like Necromancer.
