Gotye doesn’t mind being seen as a one hit wonder.
The singer’s track Somebody That I Used to Know has reached worldwide success this year, and Gotye, real name Wouter ‘Wally’ De Backer, explained that he doesn’t mind if it’s his only big track.
Speaking to NME magazine, he said: ''I would take a sort of perverse pleasure if a certain part of the public think of me as a one-hit-wonder. I'd be in some good company.''
The Australian musician further explained that he knows his real fans have been listening to his sound develop over three albums, but accepts most people will only associate him with his mega hit.
'He said: 'If I go on to never make any music that is as commercially successful as this and that means that there's a divide between some people's perception of me in the pop sphere versus the actual music I've made, and people actually taking the time to listen to the rest of it, then I think that's actually kind of interesting.''
