144740__gone_l Is Gnarls Barkley’s ''Gone Daddy Gone'' (now playing at Stereogum) the best video of 2006?

Why, yes. Yes it is.

That’s all.

If by "best" you mean "ookiest" then, yes. Yes it is.

Hallie Mon, Oct 2, 2006 at 05:34 PM EST

Yes it is. Best. Video. Ever.

I liked it at first (thought it was funny), but the whole flea/human sex thing was just too weird. Yuck!

Have not seen the video but have the album; "Gone Daddy Gone" is a stellar choice for second single. i remember hearing it for the first time -I was in my car - and just about needed to pull to the side of the road I was bouncing so much.
Gnarls Barkley deserve another radio hit, and this should definitely do the trick.

I didn't realize the Violent Femmes changed their name to Gnarls Barkley. And when did Gordan Gano become british, 400 lbs. and black?

Not the song I would've picked for a single, but that awesomely insane video makes up for it!

Whatever happened to "Smiley Faces?" They did a video for that, and it never seems to have caught on. Which is a shame, because that's a great song!

Violent Femmes Comeback? Will someone remake Kiss Off? Please someone do it!!!

Good video but really waiting for Just A Thought, that song is heartbreaking and beautiful.

yeah to be honest, I dislike this video. Just because it has animation and quirky images does not make it a great video. stuff like "got til its gone" by Janet Jackson, which is incredibly artful, make better videos than animation and crazy costumes.

hmm...i actually didn't like it that much. It kind of reminded me of Crazt Frog, and why did they pick such a weak song? I'd love to see a video for Transformer...now that would be cool.

This reminds me of how, after watching Honey I Shrunk the Kids, I didn't want to step on any ants. Now I don't want to step on any bugs. But, if it's like that time with the ants, it will last for like 2 days.

MC Pee Pants! Totally!

This song is ruined by being associated with Dane Cook in the Employee of the Month ads. Also, i think its a poor choice of single.

Their CD let me down a bit, but I've said that before.

Admittedly disappointed that they chose a merely serviceable, unnecessary cover for their second single, but regardless, I'm behind the Barkley all the way! It helps that the video didn't bug me at all.

Ouch. Sorry.

Kind of reminds me of MC Pee Pants from Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

I love thier cd "ST. ELSEWHERE" and loved them LIVE in concert. I really hope they get "GONE DADDY GONE" to be a hit, they CAN'T be a one hit wonder!!! They're too awesomely rad!!! (YES I SAD RAD!!!)
