Cee-Lo Green, "I Want You"

The followup to Cee-Lo Green’s gleefully profane “Fuck You” is, perhaps out of necessity, a love song, albeit one that takes just as many sonic cues from the past as its predecessor. (A matched set! Aw, just like in real love.) The track is pleasant enough, with Cee-Lo’s scratchy-sweater voice sounding quite fine over a seemingly endless loop of strings; the abrupt segue on this British radio rip actually makes me wonder if there’s another minute or so to the track that got cut off by the overly excitable DJ who introduces the thing. [Via]
