Nov 20, 2011I've come back across this album after a few years and it just seems to have gotten better with age. Danger Mouse did a brilliant job with the production and meshes Cee-Lo's voice with some great inventive samples. Funk on an acid trip, is what best describes this.
-
Nov 14, 2011The only reason I listened to the album "St. Elsewhere" is because of "Crazy".
-
EddieWJul 30, 2007A versatile album with great singers. The only thing I thought was lacking is "substance", this CD is more fun than serious and that of course it's not bad. Entertaining, that's for sure!

KenanDMay 16, 2007Sound from the another planet. Great album !

montysanoJan 14, 2007A fine, somewhat crazed, piece of work. I love the music. But "St. Elsewhere" is a prime example of the overuse of compression in digital music. At higher volumes, it just sounds awful, and for somone who likes to listen loud, that's a drag.

VickyMDec 7, 2006I love this cd and it flows and I go far away with it... as a fan of Joni Mitchell who experimented a lot with different syles of music, but stayed true to herself I can really appreciate this sound, the music and lyrics really make me feel a lot of things I have not felt in a long time, a strange and wonderful awakening to my spirit!!!

-
NicoleDDec 7, 2006Great, simply genius album. The high energy only adds to its overall appeal. One of the year's best by far, with songs like "Smiley Face's" that make you wanna get out your seat and jam. Loved it loved it! Keep Rocking, Rapping, Popping Gnarles Barkley because this album breaks into all music genre's with ingenious ease!

-
AndersHOct 11, 2006A 9 just for the reviving new sound the two bring to the muddled pop industry.

LarrySSep 17, 2006All of the songs on this album were great, albiet short piece of total music paradise.

timmAug 9, 2006would be a 10 if track 1 was better, if boogey man didnt suck (beat is good but vocal melody is ridiculously uninventive), and if feng shui were more than an interlude. besides that, its still the best out right now

NathanBAug 8, 2006One great song. Not much else
-
-
RustyAug 7, 2006I've enjoyed DJ Dangermouse and Cee-lo's work, but both of them together is clever, between Cee-los unique voice and Dangermouse's different and sometime "weird" beats, its perfect. It gets a little getting used, but I was actually satisfied with the album.

JimmyPJul 31, 2006Danger mouse is a dangerous man....he's one of the only producers whose stuff sounds different most of the time...and his production goes great with Cee-Lo's voice...

-
GateJul 17, 2006St. Elsewhere and Stadium Arcadium of Red Hot Chili Peppers are the best albums of the year.
-
-
TonyFJul 13, 2006a few memorable tracks, and a bunch of filler. that's just what i think. go buy a temptations record instead, seriously... or even cee-los solo stuff.
-
-
othosticeJul 13, 2006Danger Mouse is the first hip-hop producer that I have considered a musician. In his hands, a mixing board becomes an instrument.
-

godonearthJul 8, 2006i give a 3 for 3 good songs
-
-
eKOLINIOLJun 25, 2006new millenium soul. the music that marvin gaye would make if he was alive or james brown and prince would make if they were on their prime
-

ChrisWJun 25, 20061) First off it is way too confusing to listen to. Like pick a style and go with it! Don
-
-
NZFanJun 6, 2006The only downfall of this album is that all of the songs are the type that will get played over and over and over for a short time until i get bored of them
-
-
RIsinSonJun 2, 2006Cee-Lo and DJ Danger Mouse are a fearless pair that takes music to another level. Soulful, funky, fun, and meaningful equals a big ball of engery. In other words if you don't have it get it !!!!
-
-
TheHamsJun 2, 2006Dude! Were the three reviewers below me born with ears? Maybe they need to check their skulls for any earical-like orifices, because they suck. Ass. Kill them. This is also a great album.
-
-
GreatBadrAlbumJun 2, 2006GREAT album, great music, etc... One of the best albums this year.

kirkgJun 1, 2006This album is like sexual intercourse with just inuff lubrication for the ears lol

-
willhJun 1, 2006This album is deffinately a classic and will prove that as the summer continues on as we will see that no other album for the summer will compile such diversity and metaphoric translation.

ChestyLMay 30, 2006Does hating this album make me craaaaaazy? Probably (not).
-
-
ChristineD.May 30, 2006Ear piercingly bad! I understand that Cee-Lo is quirky and adorable, but these songs are just terrible! Also, why is Danger Mouse wearing a "Vote for Pedro" shirt in the promo shots? I saw them selling that junk at Mervyns. If you think quoting Napolean Dynamite in your daily life is funny, then you'll like this record because you're an idiot.

GreatDaneMay 26, 2006By far the best album of the year....!!!!!!!!!!!!

-
MattMMay 25, 2006There's absolutely nothing wrong with this album, I wouldn't remove a note of it. One of the best albums of the Hip-Hop era.
-
-
ericMay 21, 2006I can't believe the pans of Transformer in the reviews. It's easily my favorite song on the album. The album is easily one of the best of '06 so far.
-
-
KingofThecosmosMay 17, 2006If you question your sanity from time to time. This Album understands. Its my Best from 2006...so far.
-
-
ErikSMay 15, 2006this album rules. cee-lo does a good job with lyrics and danger mouse is quickly becoming one of my favorite producers. everything he touches turns to awesome. standout tracks- crazy, transformer, who cares,
-
-
spongeeeMay 11, 2006For all those saying the rest of the album is not as good as Crazy, get real. If you like Cee-lo or Danger Mouse, you will like this album. I say this is better than Cee-lo's 2 previous solo albumbs...he has never been more free...but I miss those Goodie Mobb days...Who's that creepin in my window...POW! Nobody now.
-
-
MFMay 10, 2006One of the best albums of the year so far. Excellent all around! Do yourself a favor and get this album now!!!

cablesMay 8, 2006umm. yeah.. this is pretty much excellent and genre bending.

SylvioMMay 8, 2006This album frustraded me. The track "Crazy" is pretty amazing, but the others of them isn't.

TWrightMay 6, 2006An absolutely brilliant album that grabs you on the first listen and gets better every time it's played. An instant hit and a slow burner at the same time.

PaulCMay 3, 2006Been waiting a while for this one. It's a masterpiece of chaos and melody. very adventurous. don't know if everyone will understand it though. in my opinion- Album of the Year.
-
-
nutzinyermouthMay 3, 2006amazing piece of work. nothing sounds like this right now.
-
-
JeremyGMay 2, 2006Great Album... from beginning to end.
-
-
MickMay 2, 2006Some great tunes, but too many tunes that made me want to skip past them. This album has some amazing songs and some truely great moments. These tend to be the slower, more melodic numbers. However, some of the songs on this album hurt my head to listen too, and for me this isn't helped by the running order. Basically it has too many bad songs to be a great ablum.
-
-
sambMay 1, 2006despite some weak tracks, st. elsewhere still manages to awe. danger mouse is truly in his element on 'just a thought,' and the duo reaches a creative height that one rarely sees on 'crazy,' which is undoubtedly the best single so far this year, and wont be forgotten for quite a while.
-
-
R.SkellsMay 1, 2006i like this album alot. its innovative and cee-lo sounds great. danger mouse, a frustratingly inconsistent musician, has one of his better outings here. the song writing is surprisingly good and highly personal.
-
-
ClaySMay 1, 2006Amazing, best record i've heard in years!!!!
-
-
gabriell.May 1, 2006This record is severely crappy. Cee-Lo is usually hit-or-miss, and this is a big miss. Danger Mouse is whatever. People who like annoying garbage like MC Paul Barman and The Grey Album will love this. Everyone else will listen to the new Ghostface album and be glad they have good taste.
-
-
DerekEMay 1, 2006One of the best albums this year, for sure.
-
-
KristianMay 1, 2006Cee-Lo is a quarky fantasic match to Danger, they album is posed to be a great summer album with only a few tracks to skip over...

Awards & Rankings
-
Both artists have stepped outside their regular roles to make what feels like a genuinely instinctive, love-fuelled record that zings with an enthusiasm for all spectrums of music.
-
Although this isn't a flawless album, it will undoubtedly be a huge hit and keep many people company through the long hot summer months ahead.
-
You certainly won't hear much else at the moment as inventive as this.
