That "Fuck You" record
Sep 07, 2010, 09:40
By Cee Lo Green. Am I the only one that thinks there's a stonking great faux-soul pop tune spoilt by novelty record naughtiness?

I loved the Gnarls Barkley album and thought this track was brilliant for about a week but once my kids had cranked it for what felt like the 200th time the novelty had worn off. Lyrically it is just a wee bit too thin. It isn't exactly Tears of a Clown is it? Still better than McAlmont and Butler or a "Town Called Malice" though and a future Number One no doubt.

Is it "Greedhead Detector" off "20 Mothers"? Think it was a rant at Cedric Brown (and others), the then head of British Gas and his fat cat ways.

Ta muchly. It was an interesting and interactive piece of modern art (not quite Stylewhank I think).
