New entries from No.41-75 :
Who Cares?/Gone Daddy Gone
[St Elsewhere]
With the anthemic Crazy behind them, Smiley Faces was a pleasing piece of music and thisnew double A-side (if such things still exist) features a slow and a fast track, respectively, both of whichexude the same kind of coolness and made Gnarls Barkley far more than just a one-hit wonder.
[Rudebox]
This one’s got a nice beat, but it’s clear that dance music is not his forte and that there’s only oneman who can carry off a tune like this and that’s George Michael. Robbie may think he’s the new George, buthe’s not. By a long chalk.
