Gotye

Ive been hearing his name everywhere. The Video for Somebody That I Used To Know has literally popped up in my twitter and facebook feeds 26 times in the last 2 days (yes I counted). Which is pretty insane considering the differing tastes in music of my friends. I agree this song is awesome, plus it has Kimbra in it (love) and I discovered her music a few months ago. So, I’m going to join in on the posting of this video, but I’m also going to post the video for Hearts a Mess because I happen to really like this song. He’s definitely an artist that I will be paying more attention to. One more thing, his videos are well made and interesting. They add a whole other dimension to his music. At first I found them a little odd, but now I just can’t imagine seeing his music put into visual context any other way.

Here are the videos:
