There's gotta be something at least a little liberating about trying to follow up an album with a single as big as "Crazy"; there's just no fucking way it's happening! And everybody knows it. So the first sounds to drip from Gnarls's post-St. Elsewhere repertoire is a fat-beat Austin Powersy party soul jam, with Cee-Lo working up a sweat running for his life and Dangermouse sounding like he's been listening to lots of Mark Ronson. No horns, though; also, no idea if this will be a single from this year's The Odd Couple. But like everyone, we know it won't be as big as "Crazy," and that doesn't stop it from being a pretty good time.
