"Don't be sad for me, I'm a Cartoon G, and my intent is to breathe, in a new world, don't be sad for me"
I literaly have it on repeat in my head. Such a good line.
what does it mean
many ppl are saying that when 2D is saying dont be sad for me hes talking about how ppl feel bad for him cause of his past but hes a cartoon and not a real person so theres no need to grieve for what hes been through
same
I remember you from "lost in the rythym" song comment section!
The first time I heard this song and focused on the lyrics, I was in shock. It feels like 2d is talking to you. After everything that happened, especially in plastic beach, the four of them were traumatized, but the fans have also felt bad about all that, and some have taken it very literally. In this song, 2d is saying that we don't have to feel bad about the previous events. He's a cartoon, and his story is finally starting to change for the better. It is a very strong reality check.
This is a really nice way of looking at it honestly, especially for those of us with insane amounts of empathy. We forget that they ARE just cartoons.
This is so nice. The lyrics make me cry.
Oh that is awsooome. This new single is sooo brilliant.
@@Ghoulsfantasystudio grow up before something actually sad breaks your fragile mind
@@Ghoulsfantasystudio sure they did also my dad is the secret president of the deep state I mean if we're going to make things up try to be interesting
Hearing this during their San Francisco concert last year was an experience I'll never forget. Thank you Gorillaz for everything.
Same I heard it at the chicago concert but I forgot 😭 so when this song came out I was EXTREMELY confused on why I knew the melody already 💀😭
I was there too, I practically cried!
@@briewilliams2507 yup, same here. Guess I was most confused because they usually drop videos super quick. Guess we all got a sneak peak 😁
That concert was insane. Getting to hear this song for the first time and to get to see the reunion with Del that included his first live performance of Rock the House was both unexpected and majestic.
It was such a good show
I love it, is like they are saying to us: "we still know how to do music like we use too, in the fists albums... But now we grow, we are different, we evolved, and we want to do something else, new. But those roots, that music u fell in love with, is still here."
I was feeling the same way, It feels like an old friend reassuring you that things will be ok, but they will be different. I don't think I've seen a song get across the feeling of closure as well as this has.
Sounds like 2D finally found his happiness like in the beginning of the humility music video I'm so proud of him I love you Gorillaz
It's 2023 now; not 2018 anymore.
What 2-D did in the Humility MV was beyond embaressing ! It wasn't his "happiness", he went through a period of midlife crisis... or otherwise; why the hell would you expect someone in their 40s to be in a tiny pair of shorts ? That man is still yet to issue a proper apology for his hurtful actions from 5 years ago. Good thing Murdoc came back in the band 7 months after serving time in the Wormwood Scrubs.
@@afsaramehrin2993 huh? Maybe that’s just 2-D. He can do what he wants. Grown ass man. Literally. 40s! Maybe in the beginning it was him having fun. He was happy. At the end his fun was ruined by Russel…why? Idk
@@MeanMadMan 2D was kind of a dick in the humility video, he got cocky because of murdoc's absence and Rus wanted to knock him down a peg
@@MeanMadMan👈🏻 seems like somebody's still stuck in 2018 and couldn't get out of their delusions 🤦🏻♀️
Don't "huh" at me and give me pathetic excuses like "he's a grown ass man" ! 🤚🏻
You know very well how rude he was to * literally * everyone during phase 5 🤷🏻♀️
even Russel knew something was wrong with him 🙄
Don't worry Murdoc his a problem to this solution.
I love that Gorillaz brings in indie artists all the time, introduces us to peeps we may not otherwise hear but I'm never upset with a song that primarily feature '2D's vocals.
*i love songs that primarily feature 2D's vocals.*
IKR? Indy artists like Stevie NIcks
It sounds like this was written for the fans who all felt bad for 2D because of his dark past, and now he’s happy and he’s saying “don’t be sad for me” as if he’s comforting us that he’s okay now and I can’t stop crying 😭😭🥲
i definitely feel it
Fax tho
Damon has been through a lot of shit, as we all have... its nice to see the apes evolve.
NOOOO STOP
exactly
From the perspective of a casual Gorillaz fan not really invested in the lore or characters, I can say that this song is actually incredible. The whole sound of it is done so perfectly
Gorillaz never fail. It doesn't matter they've been around since 1998, they just keep churning out banger after banger every single album without fail. Some of the most consistent quality I've seen from any band.
It is a bit like pizza. Even if you get a bad pizza.. It is still pizza.
Everyone seems to forget D-Sides
d-sides, humanz, the now now are the worst albums I have ever heard. the "quality" in those albums is how much say Damon Alburn has in it because he makes music for him. issue being he has the worst taste in music any human could have
@@danequeed8551 Those are not bad albums but to each their own
@@Vasgukk thats a b sides compilation you cant expect it to be as good as demon days
Every song this album has been so crazy good. At this rate it'll be my favorite album. Not favorite Gorillaz album, but album in general.
But if it's your favourite album in general, isn't it automatically your favourite gorillaz album as well? 🤣😉
@@lukafilm im saying not just my favorite gorillaz album.
this is definatly one of those albums where each song is just a banger, like demon days.
It's not
@@Nxbulah_ it's my favorite gorillaz album
another win
I think you like gorillaz
One of 2 bands that I eagerly wait for new music. Hasn't changed since the 90s.
What's the other ?? 👀
@@ash.nobodyy1146 anything Eminem related. I know he's not a "band" guess I should of said artist.
@@andrej8413 How is Gorillaz not a band
@@andrej8413yeah they are lol?
@@jawless7616 Eminem haha........."thats an awfully hot coffee pot" lmao
"I can disappear, or lighten your day" gets me every time; he could choose to let his past take over and give up but he wants to make us happy. 2D is a treasure.
😢
Arguably the best post-Plastic Beach Gorillaz tune to date. Great musical progression, and infectious energy.
This album is going to be amazing
I saw them for my birthday last October, and they played this song- and it really resonated with me, the visualizer paired with it and watching it live- as someone who has been a fan all their life, introduced by their father by watching their music videos via fios on-demand MTV when they were small, it made me almost cry seeing it. So glad the song has finally got here, so I can relive that moment
Edit: for those confused, throughout their last tour they played a few unreleased songs- this being one of them and what in referring too.
...it only just came out
@@jaymeegrayson4662 They played a few unreleased songs at their concerts throughout the past year.
You can find videos online!
I did to! Scorpio babies unite
@@SupahSpaceOfficial unfortunately I'm a Libra! But October babies regardless, unite!
@@SupahSpaceOfficial sorry, I have a brain
My love for my favorite band of all time Gorillaz will prosper forever and ever, even beyond the sky and the cosmos. 🎶🎵♥️
Every Gorillaz song is art, this is an amazing song now in lyric video. 😍
Shout out to other Gorillaz fans around the world! ❤🎉
🇵🇹To you too! 💗✨
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Yessir Matthew!!
you too!)
🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴
I dearly love this track. Something about it that just enhances the world around you.
That said, there's also something concerning about it. Almost feels like it was intended to be some sort of "farewell" song.
I hope not but I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought this song sounded like it was intended as a farwell. It has an end of an era kind of feel to me.
Literally this. It has haunted me since I heard it in concert back in October. I don’t know what I’ll do if Gorillaz ever stops making music. I wouldn’t be an artist if it weren’t for them.
@feralbaby what you said reminds me of my love for Daft Punk and how I felt when they announced their breakup/retirement. It broke a part of me. Gorillaz will inevitably do the same thing for me. Been listening to both since the nineties.
This is the most emotional a gorrilaz song has made me. Like he's acknowledging he's just a silly cartoon character, he isn't real. We shouldn't feel sad for him. Most Gorillaz songs feel like the characters are just catalysts for the actual people behind it. But this one feels like it's the actual cartoon character's song. I really like this one
Even if I already have the lyrics memorized, the visuals are just so beautiful it's impossible to skip.
I instantly loved this song when first hearing it at the Denver concert during the 2022 North American Tour.
There's only one thing I don't like about it and it could just be my anxiety coloring things but this song sounds too much like a series finale song. Gorillaz really has been helping me get through a lot these past few years and I cannot thank them enough for being that light in the darkness and spot of comfort.
1:58 reminds me of the childhood lore for 2-D, for his hair at least, with the whole falling from a tree and suddenly his hair became blue
this song is so chill and upbeat, I'm gonna probably add it as my alarm tone from now on, it's the perfect song to wake up to that get's you in a good mood
I can't be the only one who'd watch every single millisecond of a show created in the same style of Metalocalypse based on the lore Gorillaz. Each phase could be it's own season.
The energy in this song makes you want to just jump and dance a lot
Stop dancing to the music of Gorillaz in a happy mood
@@firulais6735 keeping my groove on!
Jump while crying
I get more of a lay on my bad with headphones on softly bobbing my head kinda vibe
gorillaz me da una tranquilidad desconocida, que no comprendo pero siempre me la da y me hace sentir bien, es algo que ninguna banda y artista me da ❤️❤️ gracias gorillaz
litttt
Exacto...
Nostalgia...será porque la escuché en la adolescencia
Te entiendo hermano, yo también me relajo mucho al escucharlos y creo que eso es algo que solo Gorillaz puede hacer a tal nivel. Una abrazo y cuidate Bro 🙋🏻♂️
👍🚿🚿👍😘🌹😌
This song is quickly becoming one of my favorites off the album
every song they come out with gets better and better. keep on going, we're proud of you for making music that's this good ❤
The verse has an "MGMT - Time to Pretend" feel to it, I love it.
This song came up towards the end of my shower, and it was reminding me of my youth and how long ive been listening to the gorillaz. Such an influential band. And the line “dont be sad for me” hit me reminding me of my recently deceased mother and i got out of the shower and cried so hard…. Then the music temp bumped up to the high energy end bit, and im just sitting there balling my eyes out in a room that sounded like a rave party. Love ya gorillaz, Love Ya Mother!
Gorillaz is a huge inspiration to me and I WILL produce a song for them one day.
Gorillaz has been my favourite band since I was 12 years old. I am 24 now. Thanks for making the best tunes out there
I don't know how to express how much I love this song.
gorillaz has helped me through so much. seeing their concert in september was so amazing, i think i cried thank you for this song ❤️
Seye actually taught me how to play this on bass. It was magical doing it 🌹
whenever I see 2D dancing I just remember the interview during plastic beach where he began with 'I only joined the band because i wanted to make music' and i just smile cause he's still doing it. Strong bby
"Don't be sad for me, I'm a cartoon G" got me goosebumps. Thanks Gorillaz.
Damon said in an interview that what inspired this song was a conversation/interaction he had with an AI-powered robot or something like that. I think what this song is really about is how Damon thinks that humans (the skinny apes), will never fully be replaced by AI (that's why we shouldn't be sad) and that AI and humans will co-exist with their unique abilities and skills together. "To the poles" is a literal reference to electricity that powers AI. "And nobody knows what they're fooling with here" is a reference to the uncertanties that surround the new technology as it develops that people are still trying to puzzle/figure out.
OK, it was the new "Amazon Delivery Bot" that is now delivering packages in some parts of the U.S. He saw one while he was writing this album. It is powered by full-on AI and can actually converse with delivery recipients as I understand.
Damon explains it in his intro to the song here: ruclips.net/video/kL4ALYPmAnU/видео.html
Going to be the best album of 2023
This is the type of music that im looking for, its a rock music but at the same time its kinda chill.
My intent is to breath
In a new world
Don’t be sad for me.
As someone who is disappointing their family to go travelling and teaching, probably indefinitely, this really hits home. This will be on repeat on the plane😅
Gorillaz always motivates me to keep going, they even help me in my difficult moments... That's why I love this band more than ever... They are always there to encourage me... THANKS FOR BEING PART OF MY LIFE!
"I can balance on the highest tree"
2d, please, don't. That didn't end well last time
2 8 ball fractures already. This man does not need more than 16 balls
This is my new favorite Gorillaz song, and the entire album will most likely be my new favorite.
I don't want to die...because this world to much to remember
I went to their concert in Austin last year and they played this song , now it’s probably my favorite song love you Gorillaz❤
Gorillas are just on another whole level Wonderful as always much love from Africa (Tunisia 🇹🇳 ) ❤
I'm always surprised reading comments and finding that no body seemed to notice any of the hidden meanings behind the lyrics in ANY of the Gorillaz songs. "My intent is to breath in a new world" while zooming in on Murdock hold a picture of him in his satanic cultist outfit. There songs are all about the elites worshiping false idols, and how band often acts as an arm for them reaching to the masses, half willingly. They make it pretty obvious for anyone listening or watching. I saw one comment saying "Looks like 2D finally found happieness" 2D is always unhappy cause he's always being controlled and this song is no different. He's saying the NWO has began and he's just trying to survive. He's no golden idol for you to look up at so don't martyrize him, especially since he helped bring the NWO in. He's just trying to breath and stay alive through it all. Especially don't look up or be sad to and for him because he's just a cartoon. He's not suffering from this new world, don't be sad for him. Your the one suffering.
idk about anyone else but that last “don’t be sad for me” at the end gets me emotional bruh 🥺😭
“Im a cartoon G” hits hard… its like he knows❤
Why is a cartoon making me feel this sad???
Gracias a mi madre por hacerme escuchar Gorillaz por primera vez cuando era chico y también haber heredado su gran gusto por la música ❤️❤️❤️ por escuchar más canciones así de increíbles ✊✊🤟
"I'm a cartoon, G"
DON'T REMIND ME
"Don't be sad for me - I'm a cartoon, G"
Love that lol
Gorrilaz can simultaneously make songs that are in multiple genres at the same time and make them be great songs in each genre
Glad to see gorillaz is still putting out bangers after 13 years :D
the ending gets me bawlin' everytime
“i’m a cartoon G” is the best line a digital character could ever come up with
This song gives me good vibes, I feel at peace
as a person who never knew about Gorillaz and just now listened to this bc it popped up. this is actually good 😳
This sound like an ending song to a movie
it feels like he's really talking to us, I'M IN LOVE WITH GORILLAZ SONGS
amo essa banda ❤️🇧🇷
Tbm 🇧🇷
I absolutely adore this song ❤
This is awesome xD iv been a fan since like .. I'm born 2011 so like 9 yrs bc I found the music around when I was 2 yrs old!
I promise, this song will appear in the credits of the Gorillaz movie
2D is my favorite member but I love all of the members their equally talented and gifted
❤️❤️❤️
Amo sus canciones, sigan así, cada día vuelven a ser chidos como antes
:)
:)
Gorillaz antes molaba... Ahora también!
te veo en cada lugar xd
Des Pues de años su ben una
This one broke me, and kind of hugged me all at the same time. And I love it. 🤍🤍
I was lucky enough to witness this performed live for the first time in SF last year. Fucking incredible experience. Fucking incredible song.
They are the best band I have ever known
Meeting them was the best thing that happened to me in my entire life.❤
Los amo, están conmigo en mis momentos difíciles ❤️
👍👍🌹😌
This whole song and lyrics video are so Gorillaz but in a new way too, that's great, it reminds me of the feeling I had when I experienced Plastic Beach for the first time
I think about death a lot. Often, I don't even see myself living past my 30's. Life can get... hard, sometimes. I just wish I could say to everybody in my life that it's not their fault. I don't want them to be sad for me or feel guilty as if they could've prevented it. It's no one's fault. It's a constant fight and an exhausting one, but I'm trying my best. I hope for a future with me in it.
Gorillaz is honestly so amazing I love them so much
Какая же бодрая песня и прекрасная, прям прёт👍👍
BRABO!
This song deserves more recognition!! ❤❤❤
When 2:40 hits and you suddenly feel invincible.
Finalmente cedo 😌
I really hope we get the visualizers from the concert. Those tickled my brain In a rlly satisfying way. In all seriousness they were very fun to watch and look at
Thank you for years of music, it has helped in me in my saddest moments
BRILLIANT 💗
Finding this track feels like a miracle to me. Thank you Gorillaz 💖
I finally have a top 3 favorite Gorillaz songs, and this is one of them
I came back to this after I realized how similar it felt to Man Research (Clapper). The chords and suchhh
Que buen día para estar vivo y disfrutar de un nuevo tema de gorillaz.
Tudooooo que essa Banda incrível faz é sensacional!
This album will be my personal highlight of 2023
That bass line is super tight, the lyrics even doper. Long live meaningful music.
Es increíble como saben trasmitir y crear buena música.,con la melodia y la letra. He sentido como si volviera a sus principios en su carrera musical. Como una recopilación de todo.
you are totally right as a child I was crazy about 2d I dreamed of it at night beyond this I also love the coraline masterpiece.
Necesitamos humildemente el vídeo oficial animado y todo. Tómense su tiempo para darnos un gran inicio de año con tremenda canción Gorillaz.
First half of this one is like something from their first album, neat
“don’t be sad for me, i’m a cartoon G” THIS LINE
Love this just Phenomenal I’m glad I grew up with his band’s music ❤❤
This is probably 1 of my favourite songs of all time 🤩
MY FAV GORRILAZ SONG
Russell definitely had fun playin the drums for this song
