Gotye - Wally's hung up on somebody he used to know

Love when you think you've discovered an obscure tune, only to find out it has a zillion youtube views and Germany's number one single.

Here's Somebody That I Used To Know, featuring Kimbra from the album Making Mirrors

Gotye, pro- nounced gore-ti -yeah, is essential- ly Wouter (aka Wally) De Backer. Though he tours with a ten piece band, this tune features only Lucas Taranto on bass and Kimbra's vocals. Wally contributes Guitar, flutes, percussion and synth samples and vocals. The tune also includes a sample of "Seville" performed by Luiz Bonfa.

Here's a clever cover of the same song by Walk Off The Earth


Gotye's currently touring Europe and the States. Click here for schedule.
