Review Clint Eastwood by Gorillaz please.

Ah, Gorillaz. Absolutely awesome jazzy songs with dark disturbing imagery. This song, of course, feature gorillaz, rap starz, and Gorillaz. It's pretty dark and more than a little confusing, but the actual song itself is really cool and gets stuck in your head easily. It has jazz riffs reminiscent of Dave Brubreck's "Take Five" and the line "Our future! Is coming on, is coming on, is coming on" is stuck in my head. I really do like the Gorillaz though, as I've always really loved this song from playing DJ Hero-

This song's different though, and is less relaxing and more jazz riffy.

Can you review "Psycho Killer", by Talking Heads?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yX6FsTIq6ls
Personally I had a bit of trouble focusing on the song- I really like the beat and the style, but some of the words are a bit hard to make out, like is he saying "f-f-f-f-" or "psch-psch-psch-psch"? Probably the second one. I really like the music though and how it goes up and down even though some of the words were a bit hard to make out.

Yes, you love Gorillaz too!
Review 99 Problems by Jay-Z
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwoM5fLITfk
I like the idea of this song, but the steeliness kind of sets it off a bit for me, it's hard to keep up with the words, even though I'm pretty sure he has close to a hundred problems but a :dolphin noise: ain't one, If you're having girl problems I feel bad for ya son, I've got close to a hundred problems but a :dolphin noise: ain't one.

A classic Muppet song about cookies. And how C begins with them. Or something. The only version better than it (in my opinion) is the Disco version!

Oh, I love trash! Anything dirty or dingy or dusty, anything ragged or rotten or rusty- Why are you looking at me like that? Another classic Muppet song, all about loving trash. I couldn't possibly give this a neg- a positive review (Grouches love negativity), so I'll give it a

He sings "fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-far better". I'll admit, David Byrne is a pretty tough vocalist to understand sometimes, but he's not too bad when you can understand him, and I couldn't imagine the Talking Heads without him.

Maybe you should try Burning Down the House? It's the Heads' most well-known song.

This one had a really nice chorus, even though again I couldn't understand a lot of the words and it's even weirder with a video. Seriously, who is that little guy and how did he get into the band? Isn't he... a bit young to be in it? I really like the beat though even though again I couldn't get a lot of the lyrics. I don't know if I'll understand any Talking Heads song.

Um...I think that was an actor hired for the video and not actually part of the band itself. :P
Yeah, Talking Heads were pretty weird (they broke up in the late 80's) but they were also unique, which is what I like about them. I'm also kind of a fan of lyrics that are hard to decode if I can picture a story or at least some cool imagery out of the song. I'll admit Burning Down the House isn't one of those songs and the lyrics are a bit too random for me to make sense out of and it's honestly not one of my favorite songs from this band, despite its popularity. That doesn't mean their songs have no meaning at all (for example, "Once in a Lifetime" is about questioning the meaning of life and "Life During Wartime" is about someone preparing for the apocalypse), they're just harder to get at than a lot of other bands. (Then again, they might just not be your thing and there was no point to my rambling. :P)
Also, if the Talking Heads are the weirdest band you've listened to, STAY AWAY from The Residents. I like them but I've never tried understanding them and your head would probably explode if you tried to listen to their music.

Hmm..."One More Time" by Daft Punk?
