Seriously, beyond "Crazy" what have they done that you think is memorable?

like liltalkm I DEFINITELY
prefer "Smiley Faces"
over "Crazy" anyday...

While I actually prefer "Crazy," I do agree that "Smiley Faces" is an excellent song in its own right. The new album doesn't have anything as good as those two, but I think it's much better overall.

I like'em.



I like'em too. But the recent album is no album of the year by any means

Well, at least not for you. My favorites this year are an album that was actually released last year and one that wasn't officially released at all.

speaking of Gnarls Barkley
I didn't know that "Gone Daddy Gone"
was a Violent Femmes remake cool

another thing...
I don't see anybody
mentioning "Blind Mary"
that is the "Smiley Faces"
of this new project (to me)
it's just... CRAZY love

I think the lyrics of the new album are superior to most i've heard in any new album.

I've only heard one song off the new disc, and that's 'cause it was being played while I was shopping at Border's. I haven't bought the disc yet becuase all the reviews I've seen are mixed.

But I did like there first CD alot.
I'm sick and tired of the Prince fans being sick and tired of the Prince fans that are sick and tired!

Not my album of the year, but I like the new Gnarls Barkley a lot more than their debut. It's much more even where St. Elsewhere was "Crazy" surrounded by lots of filler.

"Crazy" is an excellent song and while some of the other songs on the first album are not bad at all, I never listened to them a lot. I enjoyed them when I did, but I didn't have the urge to do it again. I haven't even listened to the second album yet, but I will soon.
With a very special thank you to Tina: Is hammer already absolute, how much some people verändern...ICH hope is never so I will be! And if, then I hope that I would then have wen in my environment who joins me in the A....
