Gotye

[Man1x]

I know we have a General Music section but I wanted to discuss him here because I think the man is a genius. Like, I've been listening for a while but his album is just crazy, it's eargasmic, he's one of the best new artists the emerge in music lately. I mean songs like, "Eyes Wide Open," "Giving Me a Chance," & "Save Me" are diverse and genius from anything being put out right now, PERIOD. Same goes for "Somebody That I Used To Know," I mean this guy really make music and I can't even describe his talent in words. LIKE FUCK, I love this guy so much right now (no homo).

[SliK]

You and Gotye can suck my dick.

[gvdz]

You and Gotye can suck my dick.

[Solace]

I agree with Man1x.

[EG.]

He Belgian

[Man1x]

I agree with Man1x.

Thanks, I mean I can't see why people don't like him. He really amazing and deserves to be selling what Adele is

[Trimss]

He Belgian

Really?

This cover is amazing though.

[Man1x]

Garbage music, as usual.

Are you shitting me, I understand someone maybe not liking him because of his different type of style but to say his music is garbage is just ignorant.

[SG.]

I don't really like him, but that's just me. I can see why others would.

[Man1x]

I mean, this guy produces, composes, sings, and writes all of his music. He rarely ever enlists outside help, I mean you all love Kanye (I do too) for doing these things. He is the Kanye West of pop basically, I mean even his music videos are artistic as fuck. Well, they aren't really similar but you know what I'm saying, hell you can compare him to Eminem as well because Kanye & Gotye produce, etc. just like Eminem. The style's aren't similar for any of these artists, just the occupations they fill. I'm just trying to find a way to explain this guy to you all. I understand it maybe hard since he isn't a rapper but open up your horizons.

[Man1x]

The most hated artist by me is Kanye

Not everyone likes him, I do though. A good song to get into him with is The New Workout Plan, that's how I did. Then I worked my way through his albums and love him. I still admittedly like Eminem more and think he's better (those first three albums ), but Kanye has got some amazing shit.

Check out: Roses, The New Workout Plan, Spaceship, Jesus Walks, Last Call (skip his talking part if you don't want to hear it), Runaway, Dark Fanstasy, Good Morning, Can't Tell Me Nothing, Gone, Gold Digger, & Diamonds From Sierra Leone. These are some good tracks to get into Kanye with IMO.

Check out Eyes Wide Open, Somebody That I Used To Know, & Heart's A Mess to get into Gotye.

[Kill You]

State Of The Art:

State of the Art is an amazing joke on modern music while Gotye admits it's how he makes his music. For all of you that didn't know, Gotye (pronounced GO-TEE-YAY)makes all his music by playing it instrumentally first but uses a computer with programed instruments to make the final product for his album. So when your listening to these just know they are 100% electronically made.

Also, I don't know how to embed videos, someone needs to teach me.

[Man1x]

Kanye makes music.

I hate his rapping though.

I don't know if you guys like him or not but how could you hate this song, it's so beautiful:
