Gnarls Barkley
[via FoxyTunes / Gnarls Barkley]
Cee-Lo has a voice that speaks to me. It is so expressive, I am buying whatever he is selling. This is one of my favorite Neo-Soul songs of the last few cycles. I think that people wrote these guys off after "Crazy" but they are still very relevant and stoking some fire on stage as well. I hope you enjoy.
Artist: Gnarls Barkley
Song: St. Elsewhere
I packed a few of my belongings
Left the life that I was living
Just some memories of it
Mostly the ones I can't forget
Whenever you need me I'll be here
Until then my dear
I'm going, I'm going, going there
Don't ask me to make time
To travel back and forth
Let nature take its course
Maybe I'm open from all this ocean air
And if it weren't for you I'd be without
A care setting sail to St. Elsewhere
Anywhere you sit you can see the sun
Unfortunately on this island I'm the only one
And same rules apply on a rainy day
Then it's not such a pretty place to be
It just rains and rains and rains on me
Send a simple sign I can understand
Then a flower grew out that sand
Before you know it I was back out on that sea
Now I don't mind it so much because it's normal
I'm not there, anywhere, St. Elsewhere
Way over yonder there's a new frontier
Would it be so hard for you
To come and visit me here?
I understand
Well just send me a message in a bottle then baby
