I want my Crazy


I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind

There was something so pleasant about that phase.

Even your emotions had to let go

In so much space



And when you're out there

Without care,

Yeah, I was out of touch

But it wasn't because I didn't know enough

I just knew too much



Does that make me crazy

Does that make me crazy

Does that make me crazy

Probably



And I hope that you are having the time of your life

But think twice, that's my only advice

Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are,

Ha ha ha bless your soul

You really think your'e in control



Well, I think you're crazy

I think you're crazy

I think you're crazy

Just like me



My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on a limb

And all I remember is thinking, I want to be like them

Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like fun

And it's no coincidence I've come

And I can die when I'm done



Maybe I'm crazy

Maybe you're crazy

Maybe we're crazy

Probably



Gnarls Barkley



Just when i thought i could safely give up the hope of having good new music

created by the retards churning out crap rap and shitty pop, this one comes and

makes me keep from flicking away from MTV.

Gnarls Barkley! Full marks for the moniker there, and a couple of million bonus

points for the massively innovative video.

But, and its a huge BUT. Its not the video on MTV that is making me write up an

ode to this new classic. That i witnessed a week ago and didn't really care about

enough to download the song. NO, it was in fact the lack of any CDs in my car as I

returned home after a hair cut and a trip to the movie store. I turned on the radio

and was enthralled. Immediately, yes I was. Like I had been impaled by a spear made

of voice and a strumming six string. I refused to drive and turned up the volume

to let the gorgeous, almost seductive female voice slowly ooze in

thru my ears.

She sang with a fervor which seems subdued in comparison to the original, but the

nuances of her tone made sure that no bit of emotion being put in was missed.

And at the end of it i sat a bit overwhelmed, by mouth pouting in appreciation.

Sadly, the 'RJ' neglected to mention who the singer was leaving me agitated to no end.

Agitated infact to such a degree that i called up the station as soon as i got home

but couldn't get through. So i sought the digital route and sent in a inquiry

pertaining to the particulars of that song.

NO reply yet, and i have exhausted all the results brought up by Google and yahoo and

currently have about 7 different version of the song. None of them, unfortunately is

the one i was looking for.

So i am forced to beg and beseech all those who read my blog. If you were for some

cosmic reason tuned it to FM 89 when this song was placed and paid enough attention

to note the name of the singer, PLEASE let me know.

If you happen to know what I'm talking about plus a location where that version can

be downloaded, yur my new best friend.

The girl singing the song, sounded young. Had a very succinct American accent but

could possibly be one of the up coming performers from our very own country.

IN any case, I’m desperate to know. And hungry to have the song on a cd at my

disposal, any leads will be appreciated.
