Cee Lo Green – Cry Baby

Cee Lo’s such a big name now he doesn’t even have to appear in his own music videos.

Tom: Cee Lo’s such a big name now he doesn’t even have to appear in his own music videos.

Tom: And what a music video. Studio backlot street, old-school singing and dancing, and a joyous disregard for continuity.

Tim: Video’s alright, but the song’s a bit dull – there’s no decent hook to get into, and his voice really doesn’t seem to be, well, used that much. This could kind of be anyone singing.

Tom: I do really like all the neo-Motown tracks that have come out this year: and Cee Lo does seem to be king of them all. This is the fifth single off the latest album, which is pushing it by any standards – but I can still see it being successful.

Tim: Perhaps, but if it is it’ll more likely be because it’s the new Cee Lo Green track, rather than just being a great track.
