Their greatest hit, 2006's "Crazy" was even built around a chunk of a spaghetti western soundtrack. Yet after the success of 2006's excellent St Elsewhere, the collaboration of singer Thomas "Cee-Lo Green" Callaway and producer Brian "Danger Mouse" Burton has become a permanent institution. The Odd Couple certainly lives up to expectations, and though there is no obvious smash to match "Crazy", it's a smoother affair than their often hyperactive debut, the unsettling "Open Book" aside. Highlights include the excellent, agitated lead-off single "Run", a smart slice of off kilter pop-soul, and its most obvious successor, the instant classic "Surprise". "Going On" manages to weld an eighties pomp-pop introduction to a surprisingly vulnerable Cee-Lo performance while the plaintive, bluesy "Who's Gonna Save My Soul" catches him at his most soulful. "Whatever" is a cute, rather bratty sixties pastiche halfway to Britpop (though no Englishman ever used the expression "y'all") while the warped bubblegum pop of "Blind Mary" and the more traditionally ominous "Would Be Killer" are opposite sides of the same twisted coin. Informed by rap and dance, but occupying their own unique genre, Gnarls Barkley continue to soundtrack the movie that, so far, exists only in their heads. --Steve Jelbert TRACK LIST 1."Charity Case"Brian BurtonThomas Callaway3:122."Who's Gonna Save My Soul"BurtonCallawayFrancesco De Masi3:153."Going On"BurtonCallawayPeter Dunton2:544."Run (I'm a Natural Disaster)"BurtonCallawayKeith Mansfield2:445."Would Be Killer"BurtonCallawayJohn Charles Alder2:226."Open Book"BurtonCallaway3:207."Whatever"BurtonCallawayRonald Blackwell2:188."Surprise"BurtonCallawayGene AllenRon DanteBobby Feldman3:509."No Time Soon"BurtonCallaway2:5510."She Knows"BurtonCallawayCy Payne2:4411."Blind Mary"BurtonCallaway3:2512."Neighbors"BurtonCallawayNico Fidenco3:0513."A Little Better"BurtonCallawayPierre NaçabalMichel Yvon Goudy3:07
