Everyone knows Gnarls Barkley for their hit single, "Crazy". But how many other Gnarls Barkley singles could the average Joe name?
If you said zero, you win a year's supply of Turtle Wax. Or not. I can't afford it, really.
'Gone Daddy Gone' was the third US single released by the band in 2006, and was part of a double-single release in the UK along with 'Who Cares?'
The original version was released in 1982 by the Violent Femmes. The song actually includes an entire verse taken from 'I Just Want To Make Love To You', recorded by Willie Dixon in 1954.
If you Google the song title, you'd never know this was a Violent Femmes song. Well, almost never. You'd think it was all Gnarls. And I'm sure there's some nitwit somewhere who does.
