Copied from Wikipedia

Wouter "Wally" De Backer (born 21 May 1980), also known professionally by his stage name Gotye, is a Belgian-Australian multi-instrumental musician and singer-songwriter. The name "Gotye" derived from "Gaultier" (or "Gautier" or "Gauthier"), the French translation of "Wouter" ("Walter" in English). Gotye's music has been compared to Sting and Peter Gabriel.
He has released three studio albums independently and one remix album featuring remixes of tracks from his first two albums. De Backer is also one-third of Melbourne indie-pop band The Basics, who have independently released three studio albums and numerous other titles since 2002.
He has won five ARIA Awards and received a nomination for an MTV EMA for Best Asia and Pacific Act.

Some of my favorite songs of his:
Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra)
Heart's A Mess
Thanks For Your Time
Bronte
State of the Art
Note that some of these videos can be a bit... creative.

They're terrible.
Well, to each his own. At least you gave him a listen.
I hope.

Wouldn't it have been awful if the camera had slipped on that first one?

Anyway, they're not bad, but not good either.

Well, to each his own. At least you gave him a listen.
I hope.
