A Musical Interlude: With Gotye

Hey lovelies,

Today is the day that I introduce you to yet another musician that I really should have discovered before now - Gotye. Apparently, he is a Belgian-Australian multi-instrumental musician & singer-songwriter, who managed to release three independent albums, a remix album, win five ARIA awards, and play in another band, all without me ever hearing of him until he was mentioned by the blog of the gorgeous Carly Findlay. Ever since the first time Carly mentioned Gotye, I've been hooked by his haunting melodies and unique vocals. Have a listen:










I know I'm terribly cliche, but my favourite so far is Somebody That I Used To Know. Possibly because I also love Kimbra on her own, but also because I find that song so relatable. I think everyone has a somebody that they used to know. I also have a soft spot for Hearts A Mess.

Do you adore Gotye? Despise? Do you think I have comitted a terrible faux pas for not knowing about him all these years? Let me know!

Until next time, xo.
