Since it's Tuesday, and Dominos has everyone thinking of "Two Times Tuesday", I figured I'd double up the music today.
Gnarls Barkley, a two man band from Atlanta most known for their hit single "Crazy", has done their fair share of remixes. Their most famous was "Gone Daddy Gone", which happened to be their second hit single. The other remix, "Reckoner", has not been produced but has been seen by many loyal audiences.
Fans were able to witness "Reckoner" while at Lollapalooza, when Gnarls Barkley took the stage a day after Radiohead (the original song's writer).
Gnarls Barkley, who is funky in their own respects, has taken hit songs from other alternative bands and put the Gnarls spin on things. A remix isn't easy to do, mainly because listeners are already used to the original song. Despite that difficulty, they have repeatedly succeeded in making remixes, and for me have taken the songs to new levels.
Enjoy today's for your viewing pleasure, Gnarls Barkley, and their own spins on the remix.

I am surprised that I liked it, did not understand it but like it. Not sure if it counts as a remix but love when music greats play the standards. (the little drummer boy by bing crosby and david bowie, or somewhere over the rainbow by eric clapton)
