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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Not a fan.

Their hit sounded nice, once.

Unlike other great bands, I find myself hating it.

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.
