Gotye....anybody else?
 

Saw them perform 2 songs on SNL and I liked them. Have not said that too often in the music realm in a while. Good lyrics, quirky, sounds like he has a little Sting in him.

This song got played on the radio when we where in Europe last month. I like it.

It will stick in your head for a while..

His been on the Aussie charts since 2006. His got a lot of stuff released and a fair bit of it on Youtube.

Was just listening to this song a half hour ago. I like most of his music.

Yup - like it - spouse found them first.

Currently one of my most listened to albums.

I started listening to him after you posted the video in the What are You Listening to thread. I also started listening to the girl in the video. Her name is Kimbra.

Our stations are overplaying it. I now hate it.

And its just getting started too.... they'l still be playing it 6 months from now as the "NEW" song from Gotye . SmileWavy

Waiting for him and Adele to come out with a duet that will be played 5 times every hour 24/7. Yes its a fine song, but enough is enough. I liked "Rolling in the Deep" much the same way and now I can't hear it again. He has other good songs, they should play those more.

Haha. The duet can be about how they move like jagger.

Check out his single, "Hearts a Mess."

Started listening to Goyte last fall, when it was posted on a "what are you listening to" post HERE! :)

My son turned me on to them. I really like them, coming from a 56 yo guy.

Well then there is this

Not a fan.

Their hit sounded nice, once.

Unlike other great bands, I find myself hating it.

Kimbra is another one to keep an eye out for..

GOB approves! And, yes, it is now, thanks

It's a catchy song - surprisingly short considering it is still stuck in my head.

Kimbra's got a great voice - My oldest loves her voice - while he has not expressed it I can tell by the way his head perks up when she starts chiming in. I can relate to him - she sounds great.

Gotye himself - not bad but I don't think his singing is what makes the song a hit. The song itself, the lyrics and subject are just quite good and something anyone who has ever dated can relate too.

Kimbra's a Kiwi. Great voice & look, we love her! Well worth watching imo.

I tried Gotye but I didn't like it....Reminded me of The Police, but not in a good way...

Why do all of the new female singers sound like Amy Winehouse to me?

Am I the only one who was afraid to click on this thread for fear of it leading to goatse.cx?

Did anyone else find themselves singing XTC's Senses Working Overtime over the intro?

Speaking of Adele...

love it, great song, check out some interviews with him on you tube regarding the song and it his new found fame. seems to be really down to earth. Interesting guy.

Thanks nostatic.

I prefer this version to the Gotye version, though that one is good. It's a very catchy song.

Agreed, great voice. I'm going to have to take a listen to a few of her songs.

She's yummy too which doesn't hurt.

Because Amy Winehouse made a certain sound popular, so all of the folks that have that sound are now breaking out. I like it.

I like this one way more than the one that was such a hit....

That is one of the songs I liked. But if you are a Beck fan, which I am, this has a very uncanny similarity to many of his songs, down to the vocals. Could be why I like it.

The German's took a crack at it. :)
