it's a shame if he'll end up as a 1 hit wonder... i don't think any of the follow ups will chart even though Eyes Wide Open is as catchy and as strong... I don't think this feat can ever be repeated ever again... but at least i witnessed one of my favourite tunes go to #1... and that's such a huge feat!

The album is amazing! Somebody is very representative... You get the upbeat Gotye, 2,4, 6, 7 & 11... experimental gotye 5,8,9.. and reflective gotye 10, 12... somebody is somewhere between all this...

Queens of the Stone Age - Go With The Flow Manics - Motorcycle Emptiness James - She's A Star White Stripes - 7 Nation Army Badly Drawn Boy - Disillusion Coldplay - Yellow
All of these songs have a monster guitar riff that I simply can't resist... The kind of song you just can't help but sing along with the guitar notes... Any favourites of yours please???

I don't see it as repetitive over the course of the album... ok a lot of the songs are very dark but thats how it was meant to be... however songs like Spectrum is what lets this album a bit down... it should be a highlight but infact it goes nowhere for me... still the dark moments are excellent and definitely worth buying... All this and heaven too is simply AMAZING... so is heartlines... I also LOVE breaking down... it's quite a different tune from the rest...

Ah. I was wondering why someone like Ms Del Rey could get so much positive publicity so quickly despite a lack of talent. Turns out daddy is a multi-millionaire paying for it all. Well done, everyone. Born to be sold. And you've all bought it. who cares! if the song is good let it be... i'd rather see someone like LDR at #1 rather than Flo Rida... If she received all of this positive publicity, it's not her fault... it's those who published it!!! Besides that the material she came up with deserves it... Let say up to now!

the guy's voice is what makes this song tick... as many of the above mentioned, Gotye reminds me a lot of Peter Gabriel, Sting, Empire Of The Sun and the likes... I believe this song is so appealing because many of us have that someone they need to get over from... And with that line "she didn't have to cut me out..." many will be singing along with their hearts on their sleeves... It's got such power and emotion, it is unavoidable... A top 10 slot is A MUST for "Somebody That I Used To Know"

The video is just PERFECT... Perfectly belongs to the song!!! The songs' story evolves on Kimbra... First she forms part of the whole painting (the relationship thing), then she moves next to him and sings to his ears (that's their splitting up)... then slowly her painting starts getting erased (that's when she parted ways with him... somebody that he used to know)... it all makes sense unlike 99% of the current crop of videos...

I believe Viva La Vida... is a much better album than x&y for example... It had it's moments... Life In Technicolor, 42, Viva La Vida, Lost... they're all excellent tunes and amongst their best... it was a tougher nut to crack than x&y... x&y had the hardest part, talk & white shadows... the rest is very average... maybe with mylo xyloto they took the VLV&DOAOHF formula too far... Paradise is surely not their worst song ever... Fix You is far worse... but Chris Martin should sing proper lyrics and less "ohhhs" and "nananas"... Even though they're sung almost effortlessly on Paradise... And it's hard not to sing along to... I still expect better from Coldplay!!!

Yuckkkkkk i can't believe Rihanna's nasal voice which demonstrates everything that is bad about pop music at the moment is going to make it on a Coldplay album... Problem is that Rihanna's voice sounds awful on a plastic pop song, let alone on a Coldplay song... now I'm not against collaborations with pop artists... if they were to collaborate with Katy B, Lady Gaga or Jessie J, I would have been excited but not Rihanna... Now I'm not speaking of credibility... anyway I don't think that Coldplay are credible as such... They lost theirs with X&Y... Then they regained some with VLVOD&AOHF... Rihanna's voice is the problem...
