Actually, lobotomy is a specific surgical operation that "consists of cutting or scraping away most of the connections to and from the prefrontal cots ofrtex, the anterior part of the frontal lobes of the brain." So it could also be saying that the creativity has been lobotomized from modern pop music
Ok but even though the lyrics are like ,,blahblahblahblah" it is so...meaningfull. like that's what depression feels like. ,,I'm feeling really blah blah blah" is actually deep af
Reference to the exorcism. That's a reference to the demon that possesses the girl in the film. Throughout the film randomly there's images of a face similar to that. I know what he's called but I have no idea how to spell it lol. That statue is a reference too.
the statue is pazuzu, a Mesopotamian demon who sometimes acted like a guardian to them when other demons tried to attack. pazuzu is the demon who posses the girl in the movie.
He doc if the sleep paralysis is a thing why is 2d walking on dead people instead of being a zombie like the rest... oh that's right cause your just a bitch who lies about shit with shitty remarks that could be interpreted in multiple ways... meanwhile he out there not giving a fuck like 2 pac living his best and only life...
there is a behind the scenes video of this song on youtube, with the exact take in it where he does the laugh, they just kept that take for this song's release
Idk if anybody knows this, but there was a challenge in the music industry when this came out to say a word 100 times in a song and make it actually sound good, and for this, it was 'blah'! I learned that from a hardcore Gorillaz fan-
For all of you who are confused: The whole point of this music video is that it's mocking and making fun of modern popular music videos, and how as long as you're famous and has a catchy tune, will become popular. It was mocking that, making lyrics so bizzare that in the end, meant nothing at all.
this isn't their best song, I don't think, but its definitely one of my favourites because of how smart it is in making it's point. From the way the lyrics are meaningless to the way the way the only part of the song that makes some sense gets more and more drowned out by the music and the "rock it" every time it's sung until eventually you can't hear it anymore. every time listen to it I always find something that makes me say "oh my god, that's so smart!".
If that's true, that makes sense why the animation is so off. If you look at their other stuff, everything is very fluent. Idk what software they use but this looks like flash. I'm not saying flash animation is bad but considering the fluency of their other animation, with it looking as clean as cell animation if it's not already, this is a bit of a down grade. Still love the art style tho.
ALPHYS it is cute, but then I realized Noodle is like 20 in this. It wouldn't move been better if she was a younger teenager. It would have been so adorable if she was as young as she looked
At 0:50, on the lyrics "I pull myself together" (or I GOT myself together?), I swear I can hear Damon laughing or trying not to laugh at something while he's singing. Anyone else hear that?
plus, 2D doesn’t really..sound like 2D? you can tell it’s damon, except in the chorus, so i think he did it in one take and didn’t bother all too much with the 2D voice because this song isn’t on the album
peppermintic I think it’s supposed to symbolize how done 2D is, he’s carrying noodle on his back so she doesn’t have to walk on decapitated (human?) heads because she’s a child, he’s laughing at pulling himself together because in a time like this it would be unimaginable.
bruh i used to be scared of the eel video lmao, i think it was the first gorillaz video i saw and murdoc just unsettled me too much but now i have a very unhealthy obsession with pickle man
When I sing this song, I have to do it with a British accent. There’s no way around it. I physically cannot sing it with my (Americanized) Canadian accent lol
I know that 2D is more of a big brother figure to noodle but he definitely helped raise her as well. I really love how all three of the guys raised Noodle and watched her grow into the person and musician she is because it shows that Gorillaz is more than just a band, they’re a family. All of their interactions with her are just so sweet and wholesome and I love it!
I think this song is meant to be a parody of those stupid pop songs that sound like the artist is apologizing fordoing something bad (drinking, cheating, partying to hard, etc.), but in the end it all just comes out as the same, bland, reused trash that everyone puts in their songs nowadays. Hence the whole "blah blah blah" and the monotone voice thing. The only part of the song that feels genuine is when 2D/Damon sings the whole "I didn't mean to do it" part. It sounds like he is actually sorry about something, and put his heart in soul into writing these lyrics to apologize for something. Not saying that 2D/Damon did anything apology worthy, but I think he is saying that these songs, where the artist actually knows what he/she needs to say, that feel genuine, and stand out amongst the landfill.
I feel like this song covers more than just generic apologizing pop songs but most types of songs that cover the same topic over and over like getting revenge on someone or another thing I don't know just what I think
Recuerdo que no quería escuchar esta canción para evitar el vídeo, pero ahora lo reproduzco en loop, gracias por existir Gorillaz, en una semana los veré por primera vez 💙
he whistles a little when he says "s" in songs. Also, the voice of 2D in interviews and in Gorillaz Bitez isn't the same person as the singer, therefore he doesn't lisp when singing.

No, there are others, they mostly ship them because of the whole Zen bond thing in Phase 1. Her exact words were, "Him, Me, We, A special Bond." Because of this plenty of people speculate she might like him a bit, it's unclear how or why but they do seem to have a relationship of sorts from this video, 'Feel Good Inc.' and 'Do Ya Thing.' There are also plenty of articles and interviews in magazines from the past that could back up the evidence as well as information from the original Gorillaz website. (I would only trust reliable sources if you decide to do some digging into the mythology and fandom like I did, fair warning of caution searching for the gorillaz History is like going down a rabbit hole.) Amongst other things I personally find it interesting that Hewlett decided to age his characters instead of just freezing them at a certain point but go figure.
Rachel Campos-Jaimes Rachel Campos-Jaimes I've been a big fan of well over ten years, I'm probably more familiar with the canon than you are. No offence, but there's nothing you can't tell me. Yeah, they have a "relationship", its clearly a brother-sister relationship. There's ZERO evidence for a romantic/sexual relationship and it's just people looking too deep into something that doesn't exist. When she said said they had a bond she was 10. 2D was about 23. Clearly she meant it only in a platonic sense. In Feel Good Inc she was 14 when 2D was about 27. You see how fucking vile that is? These shippers have been sexualising an underage girl. It's very clear she only sees the older guys as her brothers and the idea of sleeping with them them is vile and borderline paedophilic. She was raised by them so that's like child grooming. I said "yes" to be a smartarse, lol. I know heaps of people follow the ship. Most are immature idiots that don't get why it's disgusting. And no, it's still not okay even now that she's an adult. Why the fuck would someone wanna sleep with someone who raised them?
1) I wasn't talking to you, was commenting from an unbiased standpoint answering another person question. 2) Nobody was child grooming anyone obviously. Murdoc 'The international love machine' (as he put it as of recent), made an adult cyborg clone of Noodle, spent months in the same submarine and didn't touch her. Russel was obviously more like a father figure and even if she did like 2D at the time when she quoted, he was completely oblivious, probably still is. She said it not him, so no one is grooming anyone. Only one sexualizing the characters are the perverted fans not the creator nor I. 3) Pedophile only applies to a person if an adult is sexually attracted to a child. Of course anyone new to the fandom would question them if they didn't know their ages. It's 2017 she is almost 30 yrs old, there is no borderline. If she wanted to be with him (which I highly doubt it in vice versa) whether she was "human" or a cartoon, it wouldn't be a thing anyone could do about it and none of anyone's business. 4) Despite what a lot of people think, age gaps like that do happen in reality and amongst celebrity status as well. Beyoncé and Jay-Z (11 yr gap) are hanging in there so is Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie (11 yr gap), Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart (23 yr gap), Nicolas Cage and Alice Kim (20 yr gap), just to name a few even Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher (15 yr gap) stayed together long enough. If Noodle and 2D had anything similar their relationship would probably resemble Rihanna’s infatuation with Leonardo DiCaprio (13 yr gap) which of course didn't work out, but those kind of dating things do happen, rarely but they happen. 5) Who said anything about sex? Because I sure didn’t; a relationship doesn’t equal sex and it shouldn’t. If they decided to do something screwed up like that it wouldn’t be the first time. 6) People shouldn’t take all of this personal and or seriously Fan or no Fan they aren’t real and it wouldn’t matter if they were. See: ¶3) sentence 4. I've concluded my point in earnest and will not be answering further probable backlash due to my lack of interest of continuing such an unnecessarily doltish debate based on probability, speculation and or opinion that may or may not ever be further ventured by the Gorillaz originator. Our opinions are our own and I wish you well.

It kind of is. He's talking about how pointless and nonsense pop lyrics are. "Lobotomy pop"
This video was a prototype for the themes of Demon Days; the toxicity of celebrity culture and how people make false icons out of their stars. The chattering zombies and slithering vines represents the virtual infection of such celebrity worship and how it turns people into mindless drones. It coincided with the Search for a Star contest in which Gorillaz encouraged people to express their individuality and talents.
The fact is that I don't recognize any of the faces. Maybe because I'm french
Also there was a challenge that you had to make a good song with the same word in it 100 times
Ohhhhh that makes sense thank you
Yes
Not to mention this video was inspired by very similar themes explored in the cancelled Celebrity Harvest movie that centered around a zombie outbreak brought about the inflation of celebrities' ego. Among the notable studios that expressed interest in developing the film were Dreamworks but Jamie cancelled the deal after they wanted to make a "family-friendly" movie involving the characters.
Only the gorillaz can use "Bla Bla Bla"90% of the time and it be good lmao
WoW you are right! I did not realized...long live Gorillaz

Cairns Chaos what does the "lobotomy pop" exclamation mean?
Luke Boyer No idea, man. No idea.
Cairns Chaos Lobotomy means to cure mental illness, so it's likely to mean that manifactured Pop is the mental illnesss of music.
Actually, lobotomy is a specific surgical operation that "consists of cutting or scraping away most of the connections to and from the prefrontal cots ofrtex, the anterior part of the frontal lobes of the brain." So it could also be saying that the creativity has been lobotomized from modern pop music

yea, I found it very vla bla, blablablablablabla
At 0:50, on the lyrics "I pull myself together" (or I GOT myself together?), I swear I can hear Damon laughing or trying not to laugh at something while he's singing. Anyone else hear that?
plus, 2D doesn’t really..sound like 2D? you can tell it’s damon, except in the chorus, so i think he did it in one take and didn’t bother all too much with the 2D voice because this song isn’t on the album
@pyro maniac D-Sides, it's probably the least known album but i doubt about the fall
peppermintic I think it’s supposed to symbolize how done 2D is, he’s carrying noodle on his back so she doesn’t have to walk on decapitated (human?) heads because she’s a child, he’s laughing at pulling himself together because in a time like this it would be unimaginable.

0:51 It sounds like 2-D's holding back laughter here.
Fun fact: They couldn't stop laughing during the recording soooo
I noticed that too!
That actually is. Because in the documentary, It showed the recording of this song, and in it, Damon kind of laughs during the recording.
"wtf are we making"
Damon was probably getting like made fun of or they were making faces at him or something when he was recording it. i imagine it was hilarious

I think this is the most british accent I've ever heard outta 2d's singing voice
When I sing this song, I have to do it with a British accent. There’s no way around it. I physically cannot sing it with my (Americanized) Canadian accent lol
there is no such thing as a "british" accent. Britain has more accents and dialects than the rest of the english-speaking world combined

I know that 2D is more of a big brother figure to noodle but he definitely helped raise her as well. I really love how all three of the guys raised Noodle and watched her grow into the person and musician she is because it shows that Gorillaz is more than just a band, they’re a family. All of their interactions with her are just so sweet and wholesome and I love it!

I think this song is meant to be a parody of those stupid pop songs that sound like the artist is apologizing fordoing something bad (drinking, cheating, partying to hard, etc.), but in the end it all just comes out as the same, bland, reused trash that everyone puts in their songs nowadays. Hence the whole "blah blah blah" and the monotone voice thing. The only part of the song that feels genuine is when 2D/Damon sings the whole "I didn't mean to do it" part. It sounds like he is actually sorry about something, and put his heart in soul into writing these lyrics to apologize for something. Not saying that 2D/Damon did anything apology worthy, but I think he is saying that these songs, where the artist actually knows what he/she needs to say, that feel genuine, and stand out amongst the landfill.
so true
Matthmarticus
Yeah, I agree
That's because it is
I feel like this song covers more than just generic apologizing pop songs but most types of songs that cover the same topic over and over like getting revenge on someone or another thing I don't know just what I think
Ben Matthews also the lyric "and in the end it means I blah blah blah blah blah blah"
Recuerdo que no quería escuchar esta canción para evitar el vídeo, pero ahora lo reproduzco en loop, gracias por existir Gorillaz, en una semana los veré por primera vez 💙

2010? Nah, Plastic Beach was released in 2010. I think this song is off D-Sides, which was 2007 if I'm remembering right.
i think this originally aired in 2004? idk for sure tho
chrisplaysgames It was in 2004
you know it was based on the upload date of the video right

This song scratches parts of my brain i never knew had an itch, i LOVE it
you'd think 2d had a lisp since hes missing his front teeth huh
oh shit ya
hana k
he does whenever he talks, listen to the gorillaz bitez
hana k he used to have em
he whistles a little when he says "s" in songs. Also, the voice of 2D in interviews and in Gorillaz Bitez isn't the same person as the singer, therefore he doesn't lisp when singing.

okay, 2D carrying noodle is to cute for me
Yes. Noodle x 2D/anyone in the band is gross.
No, there are others, they mostly ship them because of the whole Zen bond thing in Phase 1. Her exact words were, "Him, Me, We, A special Bond."
Because of this plenty of people speculate she might like him a bit, it's unclear how or why but they do seem to have a relationship of sorts from this video, 'Feel Good Inc.' and 'Do Ya Thing.' There are also plenty of articles and interviews in magazines from the past that could back up the evidence as well as information from the original Gorillaz website.
(I would only trust reliable sources if you decide to do some digging into the mythology and fandom like I did, fair warning of caution searching for the gorillaz History is like going down a rabbit hole.)
Amongst other things I personally find it interesting that Hewlett decided to age his characters instead of just freezing them at a certain point but go figure.
Rachel Campos-Jaimes Rachel Campos-Jaimes I've been a big fan of well over ten years, I'm probably more familiar with the canon than you are. No offence, but there's nothing you can't tell me.
Yeah, they have a "relationship", its clearly a brother-sister relationship. There's ZERO evidence for a romantic/sexual relationship and it's just people looking too deep into something that doesn't exist. When she said said they had a bond she was 10. 2D was about 23. Clearly she meant it only in a platonic sense. In Feel Good Inc she was 14 when 2D was about 27.
You see how fucking vile that is? These shippers have been sexualising an underage girl.
It's very clear she only sees the older guys as her brothers and the idea of sleeping with them them is vile and borderline paedophilic. She was raised by them so that's like child grooming.
I said "yes" to be a smartarse, lol. I know heaps of people follow the ship. Most are immature idiots that don't get why it's disgusting.
And no, it's still not okay even now that she's an adult. Why the fuck would someone wanna sleep with someone who raised them?
1) I wasn't talking to you, was commenting from an unbiased standpoint answering another person question.
2) Nobody was child grooming anyone obviously. Murdoc 'The international love machine' (as he put it as of recent), made an adult cyborg clone of Noodle, spent months in the same submarine and didn't touch her. Russel was obviously more like a father figure and even if she did like 2D at the time when she quoted, he was completely oblivious, probably still is. She said it not him, so no one is grooming anyone. Only one sexualizing the characters are the perverted fans not the creator nor I.
3) Pedophile only applies to a person if an adult is sexually attracted to a child. Of course anyone new to the fandom would question them if they didn't know their ages. It's 2017 she is almost 30 yrs old, there is no borderline. If she wanted to be with him (which I highly doubt it in vice versa) whether she was "human" or a cartoon, it wouldn't be a thing anyone could do about it and none of anyone's business.
4) Despite what a lot of people think, age gaps like that do happen in reality and amongst celebrity status as well. Beyoncé and Jay-Z (11 yr gap) are hanging in there so is Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie (11 yr gap), Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart (23 yr gap), Nicolas Cage and Alice Kim (20 yr gap), just to name a few even Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher (15 yr gap) stayed together long enough. If Noodle and 2D had anything similar their relationship would probably resemble Rihanna’s infatuation with Leonardo DiCaprio (13 yr gap) which of course didn't work out, but those kind of dating things do happen, rarely but they happen.
5) Who said anything about sex? Because I sure didn’t; a relationship doesn’t equal sex and it shouldn’t. If they decided to do something screwed up like that it wouldn’t be the first time.
6) People shouldn’t take all of this personal and or seriously Fan or no Fan they aren’t real and it wouldn’t matter if they were. See: ¶3) sentence 4.
I've concluded my point in earnest and will not be answering further probable backlash due to my lack of interest of continuing such an unnecessarily doltish debate based on probability, speculation and or opinion that may or may not ever be further ventured by the Gorillaz originator.
Our opinions are our own and I wish you well.
that well put together mini argument was fun to read
