Gnarls Barkley
I always knew Darth Vader was a brotha! That booming deep James Earl Jones voice all those years! I knew it! LOL! Forget Anakin! We have Lord Cee-Lo! LOL! Cee-Lo is now Gnarls Barkley. Or should I say he is the frontman for the new band called Gnarls Barkley.
Goodie Mob rapper/singer Cee-Lo and Gorillaz producer Danger Mouse.
Thier debut CD is called," St. Elsewhere."
I missed the MTV performance but I saw the pics and the performance on YouTube.
Were they dressed in Star Wars gear? Yes, they were! LOL!
Everytime they perform they are said to dress in new outfits or costumes. Wild concept, right?
I like the song, "Crazy". It reminds me of a song that could be used in a musical or a play at a key scene. For some reason, it reminds me of something that could have been used in The Wiz when they meet a new character on their way to Oz.
Must pick up the CD. They are supposed to be hitting the global festival circuit this summer including a stop at Lollapalooza. A U.S. tour is planned for later this year in the U.S.
I love the lyrics:
I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space
And when you're out there
Without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Possibly [video version]
Probably [CD version]
And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice
Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are,
Ha ha ha bless your soul
You really think you're in control
Well, I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me
My heroes had the heart to Lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember is thinking, I want to be like them
Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done
Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Possibly
