The Odd Couple

Well I was on the train one day using youtube mobile, and I stumbled upon a couple tracks from the new Gnarls Barkley album "The Odd Couple". Now from what I heard the albums pretty eclectic. I listened to "Going On", and it has alot of organ and really dips into a number of diffrent musical genere's. I love the backing vocals during the hook, it reminds me of a Beach Boys song, and the drums sound really crisp.

Surprise! Now thats my joint. Surprise has alot of tom rolls, and it really pays tribute to a bit of British Pop. I love the end of the song when Cee-Lo hits a couple of high notes(and the notes are high, I attempted to sing them and was unsuccessful more than once). Love it!

Now Blind Mary is a funny song, because it took me a minute to determine rather I liked the song or not...but 10 minutes later I was singing it in the car(lol) so there's you answer, check it out yourself. The best line says something like, "She has no idea I'm ugly, I'm so much prettier inside"; something to that affect. Well I gotta do a shameless plug and plug my artist DESTENEE(http://www.myspace.com/desteneemusic)

Thanks for your time.
