  • Gorillaz - Skinny Ape (New Song) - San Francisco, Live, 9-21-22, Chase Center, 1st row. Damon: It's inspired in part by one of those... Amazon bots that walks down the road and delivers things. lol
    Other Tidbits:
    Damon Albarn (before El Mañana): San Francisco, or indeed the Bay Area, we've been here a few times.. It's kind of instrumental for us being here in a sense, because the first producer we worked with, Daniel's amazing (Dan the Automator), who's here, I don't know where he is (fans cheer).. And somebody else, who... I don't want to say anymore about that (Del the Funky Homosapien was to be a later surprise guest!).. But in a very big way, musicians from this place were a reason why we had such an amazing journey, whatever you want to call it, so it's very nice to be back here! Thank you!
    "This is a new song. It's inspired in part by one of those... things that come out of Silicon Valley. The Amazon bot that walks down the road and delivers things. It's something that we haven't got in my little island, far away... yet. And I saw it first in Los Angeles and it inspired me to pen this tune.. It's a new song on our album."
    During Kids With Guns, Damon came down to the rail and signed a fan's Gorillaz original album, which was really nice and fun to see. Damon then went into the GA Floor to be with the other fans and came out with a metallic rainbow officer's cap and flower-rimmed sunglasses, which he then wore for the next few songs, which was funny lol.
    (Before Opium, wearing the rainbow cap and flower sunglasses for the piano intro) OK, I'll be honest... I did start off wanting to be Elton John. lol
    The band and staff were great with the fans throughout the VIP soundcheck and the show. For example, Jeff Wootton and Seye Adelekan often leaned over to give out their guitar picks to the front row in between songs, Damon took a fan's phone mid-song and sang to it before tossing it back to him during Cracker Island, Jeff also came down to the rail after the end of the show to hand me a pick (it has a picture of Russel Hobbs) and gave the setlist to another first row fan. The fans were great as well, some made gifts for the band which we gave them at the soundcheck, others had homemade Gorillaz buttons, masks and gave them away to all the people who lined up early, etc. Many are going to both the SF and LA concerts. Great show!

      How about NOT comparing songs and just enjoying it. Skinny Ape is not a combination/amalgamation of all those songs but a brand new one. I don't see any similarity with Magic City - unless of course you meant melancholy which is inherent for many Gorillaz songs.

    alot to chew on here with these lyrics, it's a really pretty one and i LOVE the visuals.
    just thinking out loud here but in relation to the amazon delivery robots, i think this track has a plight of 2D/Albarn feeling similar to a little robot, built to make deliveries (his art) to people that ask him to (fans), that you can't really properly thank or know on a personal level (obviously a delivery robot cannot reciprocate emotions, the same way us fans cannot understand his personal life), hence the whole "don't be sad for me, im a cartoon"
    i think it is woeful in a way, as the track is asking the listener to not get bogged down the writer's sadnesses and turmoil but to just be there and accept himself and the art as they are: a cartoon that brings us happiness to watch/listen to/make fan art of haha

      I think its just the problem of having it premiere in a live setting rather than releasing the studio version first, people expect the same energy levels of a live concert when that happens. I love the studio release though because of how much clearer it is than any live version we're gonna get unless they purposely record a live version of all their stuff with the same energy as a concert.

      They were right in my ear the whole concert and were pushing me up on the barricade. The hearing damage was worse from the screaming than the speakers honestly.

    I have no idea what he's talking about when he says the song is inspired by a robot he saw deliver packages for Amazon in LA. Cuz I live in Southern California and have never seen anything like that ever before.
