    There's nothing quite like this right? I love Gorillaz, every song tells it's story, but this... This is just something that no words could ever describe how perfect it is. This song will be the closest thing we will ever get to perfection. From the second that it starts to the last, I just vanish from the world, and all my problems and thoughts become meaningless. I guess what I'm trying to say is that... This is a masterpiece. Forever, my favorite song.

    This song will never stop delivering the most of love and soul that went into developing these characters. It reflects on the whole journey in such a bittersweet way. Even when Gorillaz eventually dies out, Empire Ants will live on forever along with other masterpieces under the band's hood.
    Truly mindblowing.

    "Empires will fall"
    It always hurts to hear. I never thought the "empire " i had would ever disappear, i was too in-the-moment to care. And when it did fall it was slow at first then it left in a chaotic boom. Gone when i needed it the most. I thought it would stay forever, never realizing i was growing older and out of it each day, but even when i saw the signs i convinced myself everything was fine. I thought i was immune to change, but time made me say "I've had enough, thank you" to the only comfort i had, and i want to ask God why.
    Basically every moment you experience is lost to history. Gone, only a memory, no going back. Remember this while you are at your highs, and maybe lows as well. Nothing is forever. I'm gonna go and reminisce on my own in the corner now.

    • @user-mz2yh6qz7y
      @user-mz2yh6qz7y 3 года назад +1

      @Sandro i lost. It wasn't one particular thing but a mix. My mindset, the ppl i knew, the things i was doing all completely changed. Like living was just different.
      Back then i had a net or an escape for anytime i felt down, but now it's all gone and it feels like hell.
      Best metaphor i can give would be like strolling through the remains of a long gone civilisation. Going through the metaphorical 'streets' knowing how alive and exciting the place used to be. Like a truly great place that once was. But now it's just ruins and i'm trying to rebuild and reach that level of greatness again but i'm frustrated i'm cos i'm not getting anywhere and a lot of other things are starting to eat at my soul as well now

    lyrics:
    Oh, joys are us, the sun has come again to hold you
    Sailing out the doldrums of the week
    The polyphonic prayer is here, it's all around you
    It's all around you, out here
    And if the whole world is crashing down (on you)
    Fall through space out of mind with me
    Where the emptiness we leave behind on warm air rising
    Blows all the shadows far away
    The falling of the whole empire, is here to hold you
    Rolling out and haunted till it sleeps
    Little memories, marching on
    Your little feet, working the machine
    Say will it spin, will it soar?
    My little dream, working the machine
    Soon, like a wave, empires will fall
    And closing in on you, they're going on
    Little memories
    Your little feet, working the machine
    Say will it spin, will it soar?
    My little dream, working the machine
    Soon like a wave, empires will fall
    Closing in on you, they're going on

    Verse 1: 2-D]
    Oh, joys arise
    The sun has come again to hold you
    Sailing out the doldrums of the week
    The polyphonic prayer is here, it's all around you
    It's all around you, out here
    [Bridge: 2-D]
    And if the whole world is crashing down (on you)
    Fall through space out of mind with me
    [Verse 2: 2-D]
    Where the emptiness we leave behind on warm air rising
    Blows all the shadows far away
    The falling of the whole empire, is here to hold you
    Rolling out and haunted till it sleeps
    [Hook: Yukimi Nagano]

    Your little feet, working the machines

    The sun has come again to hold you
    Sailing out the doldrums of the week
    The polyphonic prayer is here,
    It's all around you
    It's all around you out here
    And if the whole world is crashing down
    Fall through space out of mind with me
    Where the emptiness we leave behind on warm air rising
    Blows all the shadows far away
    The falling of the whole empire is here to hold you
    Rolling out and haunted till it sleeps
    [Little Dragon:]
    Little memories marching on
    Your little feet working the machine
    Will it spin, will it soar?

    Soon like a wave, empires will fall
    And closing in on the womb, of who you are

    Will it spin, will it soar?

    It's weird listening to this, because when it first came out I never used to be into the Gorillaz and I remember listening to it. But now as I'm quite a big fan of them, they feel quite old, but a small part of my childhood.
