ye i heard them on a rock radio station too so i said it belonged to rock..hah i like them tho

If you're talking about Gnarls Barkley, I'd say they were electro/alternative/neo-soul (and neo-soul is a subgenre of R&B ^_^).

heh, that gnarls barkley song, crazy, is one catchy ass song, everytime i hear it at work it stays in my head for the rest of the day....until i get home and pump some metal off my comp :P

I'd like to be able to listen to music on my comp...but I have a very un1337-system. I'd have to close every other program down. MP3 player for the win (until I upgrade this machine)!

And you're right, it certainly IS catchy. I haven't heard it in eons though (because I'm normally not around radios).

i've herd the almost all of the whole album of gnarls barkley in a radio album review show. i must say very very catchy!
