Free Music Notes for St. Elsewhere
Free Music Review: Worth every penny.
Hit: 5 Stars
For the price of the CD, it's definitely worth buying the full length (as opposed to the single for 'Crazy') because it's packed with great songs. The music is funky and - compared to what's on the radio today - definitely unique and catchy. It doesn't really fall into the hip-hop/rap genre that my iTunes automatically dubbed it.Free Music Review: Gnarls Barkley, St. Elsewhere
Hit: 4 Stars
A fresh take on 70's funk...with the added suprise of both gospel and rap tracks included on one CD!
Free Music Review: Gnarls Barkley
Hit: 5 Stars
I bought this CD as I love the song "Crazy"...but the entire CD is great. I am very satisfied with this purchase! Free Music Review: Dark R&B
Hit: 5 Stars
This is one of the most interesting R&B albums I've listened to in a long time. It's not your typical "freak you" jams but instead, it's a lot darker and deeper than that. Some people might be turned off by that but I consider it a very positive quality. Great album.Free Music Review: Gnarls Barkley - Muesli for Your Ears
Hit: 4 Stars
This album is like muesli, it's nutty, full of flavor, sweet and yet hard and crunchy in some parts. It's an acquired taste, some of the samplings, mixing and sound effects might jar some senses but it's better than a lot of the mind-numbing Top 40 dreck that pollutes the airwaves.
"Last Time", is one of my favorite songs, filled with wonderful disco music, and Cee-Lo's terrific gospel-influenced vocals (Hmmm, I wonder if Bj?rk's,"Oceania" was sampled onto this song?). "Transformer", speedy anime music (reminds me of the theme of "Ultraman", an old Japanese live animation show) is bouncy, funny and goes well with Cee-Lo's rapid-fire rap and vocal gymnastics. "On-line", terrific mixing, with chorus, and sexy sounds. "Smiley Faces", Beatles samples meets 70s R & B and gospel, beautiful! "St. Elsewhere" and "Who Cares?" are moody, introspective, and surprising in the complex lyrics and kaleidoscopic music. Loved "Storm Coming", was VERY impressed that Cee-Lo can RAWK hard. Only complaint: "Boogie Monster" and "Necromancing" make the strident feminist in me, huff and squirm.
I guess this album is a lot like life, edgy, crazy, funny, frightening and keeps you guessing. I like it a lot.
