They dressed up like santa claus on Jimmy Kemmel's show I think one time.--Playstationdude 01:18, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alternative

Can someone PLEASE tell me how these guys are alternative rock?! Titan50 (talk) 19:58, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Three of their songs charted on the Billboard Modern Rock (Alternative) Chart. That's how. Doc Strange^MailboxLogbook 18:56, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and they won the Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album. Doc Strange^MailboxLogbook 18:57, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

His Age??

What type of Wikipedia article does not tell the man's age and birthday?? Somebody out there better get it or I will!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.54.0.168 (talk) 16:22, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to provide us his birthday. Addition: The birthday for both of these guys are inside their own articles. See Danger Mouse (Brian Burton) and Cee-Lo Green El iAS 16:25, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you took a second to look at the article, you would have seen that Gnarls Barkley is a duo, not a person. --Soetermans (talk) 20:15, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Charles Barkley Namesake

The last line from the end of the introduction to the page doesn't seem right to me. "Despite the obvious similarity, the duo's name was not taken from that of former NBA player, Charles Barkley."

Then the fourth paragraph of the Career section states, with a reference: "Burton explains the collaboration's name came from friends, "making up fictional celebrity names like Prince Gnarls and Bob Gnarley." When Heavens' Josiah Steinbrick came up with Gnarls Barkley, Burton wrote it down."

It sounds to me like their name was definitely inspired by Charles Barkley. --24.145.0.210 (talk) 23:22, 9 July 2008 (UTC)MC Iky[reply]

Thanks fantasic! Absolutely wonderful! Splendid, even! Superb one might say. Sheer brilliance. Outstanding! Great. Nice. Pretty! Well done!

Oh no wait! Your opinion alone doesn't matter... --Soetermans | is listening | what he'd do now? 23:37, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cee-Lo and Danger Mouse First Meet

Just posting this to say that according to the Cee-Lo page, they met in 1998, but the Gnarls Barkley pages says they met in 2003. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.219.29.147 (talk) 10:01, 22 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Genre(s)

Please provide reliable sources when adding genres, otherwise you are carrying out original research. Please develop consensus for any additions and/or changes to genres, on any Wikipedia articles. I have removed genres from the lead pending consensus here. Adabow (talk) 11:49, 17 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Ki Ki"?

So, an article about Gnarls Barkley begins by talking about "Ki Ki" without any connection presented to the subject matter. I'm confused. What is Ki Ki, why is it called that and what does it have to do with Gnarls Barkley? -- 84.248.218.89 (talk) 10:11, 11 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
