** The video for "State of the Art" becomes this around the first chorus. Suffice to say, you'll never look at a 1970s Lowrey Cotillion the same way again.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: Many people have taken notice to the fact that the Xylophone line in Gotye's, "Somebody That I Used To Know," sounds a-lot like the chord progression in, "Baa Baa Black Sheep." On the surface this is true, [[SubvertedTrope but]] when you get right down to it there's only a one-note difference in the melodies, and it sounds completely different when put in context with the chord progressions of each song.

* HeWhoMustNotBeHeard: Arguably, his signature song "Somebody That I Used To Know." Other than the chorus, most of the song's vocals seem to be whispered and are barely audible. It was especially bad when he played the song on SaturdayNightLive in April 2012. If it was your first time hearing that song, you might've thought his mike was broken at first.
