In some ways, doesn't Gotye sound a bit like Sting in this. Especially in the chorus.

Oh well still there being hypocritical and shady now :lol:

 

Just reading some of the tweets using the hashtag #onehitwondersday there's someone complaining about Radio 1 not playing Darude 'Sandstrom' or Faithless 'Insolmia', another asking for Gareth Gates 'Unchained Melody' :lol:

 

There's quite a few tweets about Kosheen though!

For how massive it was at the time 'Somebody That I Used To Know' seems to be almost forgotten these days! Okay maybe not quite forgotten but it certainly doesn't feel like such a huge seller. Great song though.

GOTYE FT KIMBRA- SOMEBODY THAT I USED TO KNOW

I FINALLY KNOW A SONG. AND WHAT AN AMAZING ONE :cheer: :cheer: :wub: :heart:

Fun Fact: On the week it was at #7, I told all my friends that this song is going to be a 5 week top 40 hit and is going to disappear immediately and will flop. How right was I?? :rofl:

It is officially the biggest selling one-hit wonder of the 21st Century

I'll never forgive this for a) being atrocious in the first place b) being really overplayed c) preventing Starships from hitting #1.

 

BOOOO

I have enjoyed you leaving the builiding :lol:

I see it's okay for Matt to bang on about things he notices in songs but completely unacceptable for anyone else too!

BOOOO

At least it prevented "Call Me Maybe" from becoming the biggest selling single of 2012

Somebody That I Used To Know *.*

 

Was such a wonderful moment seeing this smash to #1 when the chart was still being ruled by synth-heavy dance-pop/club tracks

That can be 'd' on my list of reasons it's shit. Call Me Maybe :heart:

This is a sublime track, so dreamy.

'Another Chance'. :dance: Another tune Radio 1 used to hammer back in 2001. If only the follow up 'You Can't Change Me' had charted 5 places higher!

OH MY GOSH

 

'Another Chance'

 

My favourite song of ALL-TIME! Someone hold me. Ugh the most incredible track my ears have ever had the pleasure of hearing.

That one was scripted for sure look at their tweet sent before the song had played :lol:
