Gnarls Barkley music video

Well, I'll give em credit that its a pretty creative video...tho the song itself is a rather less-imaginative cover, I would say. Maybe kids these days have never heard the original, so I guess its cool, but I kept expecting them to do something more strange with the song.

I'm with you, to me this sounds like the violent femmes song with Cee-Lo singing, I wish they had done more to make it their own, I know these are two very creative muscians and this song is good, it's just to much like the original.

Someone here once mentioned a different version of this song was on a sampler of teh Gnarls Barkley before the album came out, and that someone also said it was much better than the album version. I wonder if that someone could let us hear that version.

Isn't the Violent Femmes version strange enough as it is?

 

I would like to hear the other GB version too.
