An Encounter with Gotye

Gotye! The Belgian singer (now living in Australia) also known as Wally De Backer is amazing. His single “Someone That I Used To Know” (with the also amazing Kimbra) has over a million hits on Youtube with no signs of slowing down. I met Gotye (pronounced “Go-te-yay”) the other night in New York and he was so cool. I congratulated him on his great album “Making Mirrors” and wished him continued success. He doesn’t need my well wishes because his last record, 2006’s “Like Drawing Blood” was recently named the #11 hottest Australian album of all time by mega-station Triple J in Oz. Thanks again for such a great encounter Gotye, and I hope to see you again really soon!
