    The effects with the lyrics like having Murdoc's face fade in and out with the word "Cult" makes it it's own video to watch and not just a video for the lyrics. Bravo, Gorrillaz. Bravo.

  • @LittleSunnySky

    I love this song, I never looked up the lyrics but just kept singing it. I'm so disappointed in myself cause I kept singing, "they taught themselves to be a COW" cause it stuck in my head and now I still can't unhear what I sang even now knowing the lyric is "occult"
    Edit and update: I went to the Gorillaz concert at the Chase Center in SF and got to hear him sing it live, and I still heard "A Cow!"
    Edit edit: knowing now that their lyric videos aren't always correct, It can be "A Cow!" if I dream it! \(^-^)/

    Why do I feel like the line "it ate up their paradise" is referring to the time in the lore where the gasmask guy (can't remember his name) got the planes with guns to destroy the plastic beach.

    The song is fire! The clip is simply gorgeous! I've been growing up with Gorillaz and listening to it for a very very long time, I just love this band and their songs! ♡ (translated from the translator, that's why it's so crooked) ^^ ♡
