Gotye Dislikes Glee Version of his Song

The Australian artist Gotye was not a fan of the Glee version of his hit song “Somebody That I Used To Know”. He reportedly told the Sunday Herald Sun that the show “made it sound dinky and wrong. They did such a faithful arrangement of the instrumentals.” The singer stated “But the vocals were that pop ‘Glee style,’ ultra-dry, sounded pretty tuned.” He continued “And the rock has no real sense, like it’s playing to you from a cardboard box.” Soon after, Gotye stated that he was misquoted. Instead, he thought the remake was “cleverly” done by two guys. Regardless of his opinion, it is no doubt Gotye’s single is on the top of the charts. 

Gotye Scheduled to Perform with SNL

Gotye is making his SNL performance on the world-renowned comedy show this Saturday, April 14–right before his Coachella dates. Gotye’s video “Somebody That I Used To Know” has become a viral sensation. Wouter “Wally” De Backer (stage name Gotye) is an Austrialian musician and songwriter, who has strong love for the arts and will be performing in Coachella. Gotye is somebody that we all definitely know.
