St. Elsewhere by Gnarls Barkley
St. Elsewhere is an album by Gnarls Barkley, released in 2006. 3 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 59 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Crazy”, on 45 lists and voted number one three times.
St. Elsewhere, the first album from Gnarls Barkley, hit British shops on April 24, 2006 and American ones on May 9, and it's a pairing nobody could have scripted: CeeLo Green's gospel-drenched wail over Danger Mouse's dusty, cinematic beats. It gets filed under soul, and it is, but a haunted, twitchy strain of it, stitched from vintage sounds and a wicked sense of humor.
"Crazy" was the one everybody heard, a nervy, strutting thing that became the first song to top the UK singles chart on downloads alone and went to number two in America. "Gone Daddy Gone" and "Smiley Faces" kept the carnival spinning. The album entered the UK chart at number one, climbed to No. 4 in the US, went double platinum and picked up an Album of the Year nomination at the Grammys.
