Re: Gotye

I normally find parody videos to be lame, but that was great.

I can't seem to get enough of this song. Absolutely brilliant.

It kicks in at 1:33 and the killer exchange is at 3:01.

What this song would sound like if this was made in the 80's.

Remixed by TRONICBOX

I've had the album on my iPhone music off and on for a while now and Somebody That I Used to Know is the only track that still gets repeat play, but it really is that good. I feel like it will stay in rotation in my music for the rest of my years.

The rest of the songs only show glimmers of how good Somebody is, it's a shame there wasn't a producer or songwriter that could have helped boost them a bit.

Why? While overplayed, it's one of the best songs of the last several years, gave us a top-notch cover, and a hilarious parody.

Pretty sure this thread introduced me to all three, so even if, you know, even if we never talk again after tonight, please know that I am forever changed because of who you are and what you've meant to me.

Re: Gotye

Not so much about the music, but this is some amazing dancing, choreography and editing.
