Such cool videos. I listened to Gorillaz a lot when they first came out. Incidentally I’ve been listening to them lately as I’m learning to play the bass and the “Feel good inc.“ riff is super cool yet beginner friendly. By listening to it I got back into the band again

#22I know they were a hugely popular band, but I the only song I know is the one from the video.
You're missing out! Gorillaz, Demon Days, and Plastic Beach are all great albums. Their other albums are ok. Blur is a great band too, pretty sure I like all of their albums. Also, if you like that rap verse, check out Del the Funky Homosapien/Deltron
Deltron 3030 is one of the most amazing things ever!

#23Ahh... nostalgia. Gorillaz, one of my favorite bands and listened to Gorillaz, Demon Days and Plastic Beach many times. "I'm useless, but not for long The future is coming on"
Coincidentally Gorillaz just posted a new clip video to their YouTube titled Nostalgiaz:

#24Gorillaz are timeless. My teenage kids love them
I saw both Gorillaz and Offspring a couple months apart at the same arena venue and I want to say they're all in their 50s and the difference in audience was wild. Damon Albarn has been very successful at staying relevant to the younger crowd.

#25I loved that song and never saw the video. I don't think a video made any band famous since the MTV era.
Was Ok Go's Here it goes again after the MTV era?

#27Thanks for posting this. I 'member seeing this video originally on MTV at like 3AM. Instantly captivated. I'm a huge fan to this day, but there's something uniquely special about all the Phase 1 stuff: the album, the B-sides (or “G” Sides lol), the explorable Flash Kong Studios site, the DVD, Jamie Hewlett's art†, the fact that the eponymous album as originally released is 55:55 (iykyk) There's also a track on Deltro…
What does 55:55 mean? I know ifkyk but idk and would like to k.

I wish I could but literally can't explain it because it's something I came to know via symbology and not via words, so I don't have the words to try and pass it on to others :(
Have you ever seen Interstella 5555? It's a documentary actually.

#29I was 11 or 12 when I first saw Clint Eastwood and the video + the song lived in my head rent free. Genius work, and aged well.

#30Aside from the numerous So Fresh instalments, Demon Days might have been the first CD my brothers and I played to death. Timeless.
