Friends, Please listen to Gnarls Barkley, St. Elswhere, song titled 'Crazy'.

I first heard it at the MTV movie awards. Since then was desperate to know the artist, his album. Courtesy itunes, I found it.

It is not hip-hop, I will say it is pop, funk, cool, genre. Cee-lo is the singer. I haven't heard him before, though there are apparently albums which he has produced, I have heard before. This album in particular is in collaboration with another hip/hop artist, Andre, from speakerboxx remember?

buy this one folks. The lyrics are clever, witty too.

I can say this is amongst the best in alternative music, sound, I have heard in recent times.

The soft bass group

Friends, John Mayer and Teddy Geiger sound similar to an extent? Wouldn't you agree?

Husky- soft voice, lyrical simplicity, good guitar works truly makes these artists to look out for in the future. John Mayer is definitely many more years ahead in terms of his maturity to the industry. I saw his gig on 'Daughters' in MTV. Some experiment!

Way to go folks! Shine and continue to do what you believe in.

Neyo's Good, Shakira doesn't lie

Ladies and Gentlemen, isn't 'so sic' a refreshing number.

Simple lyrics, but melodious to the hilt. Melody seems to be the forgotten mantra amongst the new genre of music hitting the stores.

The success of this song, along Shakira's Hips don't lie, proves melody will live forever!

njoy the songs, friends.

Sheryl Crow

Her music has the country twang attached to it, with lyrics being simple to often inspiring sometimes. The redition of 'First cut is the deepest', does leave one nostalgic, wonder if the artist would have experienced the feeling so well expressed. 'Lets get free' obviously is meant to comment on the times we are today. A genuine collaborator, she easily hits with country stars and old school rock. Willie Nelson, to Sting for example.

good is good' besides having great music, the country guitar twang beautifully used, has deep impact lyrics. We never know which one we have, the good or the bad, but run to shelter when its thunder...great lyrics.
