Interviewer: "How much of the album was done during the lockdown?"
Damon: "Oh look at this i have a blur teacup"
A legend that man!
I don't get it
It was a dumb question given the previous one
@@commonlogic3646 he used to be on a band called blur
@@magy959 i see, thank you
Damon Albarn smacking his head in his barn and feeling somehow better is peak 2-D behavior
Seems like gorillaz behavior in general
There has been a lot of interviews in the last days, im glad for that
Me to. I find Damon fascinating especially creatively, plus I still fancy the pants off him so it's a bonus really 😁
@@sf5823 right?
and he always looks like he's only been awake for half an hour
It’s so great that he’s willing to talk so much about how this masterpiece came to be.
*nods in anthony fantano*
Robert Smith is 61 years old and sounds 21
Looks 109 though
The 1 dislike is Liam Gallagher
This guy still look the same since 91 except he has a beard.
🧢
@@hiimaly4780no cap actually
He looked older back then because he was on smack now he just looks old
@@teeheetummytums5609 haha but if u pay attention to him his mannerisms haven’t changed that much. Maybe that’s why it seems like he hasn’t changed a lot. Same thing with graham, his mannerism is still exactly the same
don't push it 😂
season 2 omg ...hes a machine full of song ..
Has been for 30 years.
Thats why its called The Song Machine
we had no choice but to stan tbh

@@mixmastermeowgovender5214 the year 2127.
The real Song Machine was always Damon Albarn...
I still remember the summer of 2001, going into the 8th grade, hearing Clint Eastwood on MTV2 at one o’clock in the morning for the first time (and countless time after that). Nineteen years later, they’re my favorite band of all-time.
thats so amazing!
Hope he has a song with blur on it for the next album
@Natalia P. I don't know if that's entirely true. "Strange Timez," "In The Valley of the Pagan," and "Momentary Bliss" feature his kinda rap/sung/spoken vocals he's been loving since Humanz. "Pac-Man" sounds like it was straight off on Demon Days. I hear a bit of blur on "Desole" and "Dead Butterflies" but the rest of the tracks that I haven't mentioned yet just sound like Damon being Damon I'm not getting strong 'blur' vibes. But then again a lot of blur just sounds like Damon these days. I dunno just my two cents.
He talked about wanting to do play or do something with blur after Season 2 so, forget about having a sing with Graham in a Gorillaz album, let’s get the boys back making a new blur album all together.
i hope he makes another album with blur
@@seanberrodin801 If you like his "rap voice" check out Essex Dogs lol, It's kinda like a speech/poem with music over.
Would love to hear Graham, Alex and Dave back for another few songs. Would make Song Machine Season 2 have a different tone, music, and style than Season 1.
Jamie only needs a month off after burnout, he really is a demigod
Love this! the new album was absolutely incredible
Indeed! Still prefer the first three, but this one is on par with them
yes it was. I got the record last sunday. Listened to it once a day since then lol
this interview in the middle to the end get so sweet and nice, Damon really miss Tony, we all do :( but im very happy that we have damon to share his criativity with us.
Damon is an artistic genius
Love Damon so much
His voice hasn’t changed since the 90s
He whistles on every thing with a letter S in
It HURTS
I'm in America and I love Gorillaz, but as I've gotten to know about the people behind it more, it's made the experience even better!
I appreciate these interviews because they keep me inspired and lately I’m dreaming in music; tapping into those parallel universe creative force & flow.
He humbly helps prove we can all do that and just be happy in making whatever art we are expressing smiles to share 🧚♀️ 🎶
Seeing the new videos and hearing the new singles have been one thing I've had to keep looking forward to during the pandemic, so "keep culture alive" I think is an incredibly noble venture.
These interviews are really interesting and give so much insight into the album!😌⚡
Great interview! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼☀️☀️♥️
Never stop, Damon
I love Murdoc. Who inspired him to play bass?
Its said in the gorillaz biography that Murdoc was inspired by heavy metal bands growing up, in his words "...heavy, thick, black metal". Its also stated elsewhere that he was inspired by The Beatles.
@@jackson-md2gh cheers mate
12:40 same man, same
I had no idea Robert Smith was on the new Gorillaz record, it'll tide me over until he finally puts out some new Cure.
Funny Damon comparing trying to play 2D to Bansky, when Bansky is quite likely done by 3D (Robert Del Naja).
BROOOO. so jealous of the maestrovox & moog.... so so nice. can’t wait to be able to play one of those one day
I haven't got an damon albarn involved album for a while! I like all the collaborations on this new record! I hope one day to see Gorillaz tour! Unfortunately, at the moment I am on benefits and can't afford to buy tickets for any tour! Mainly because I am living from day to day and when the lockdown finishes I hope to look for work! So hopefully, one day I can see Gorillaz somewhere in the world! Peter from southport
Excelent interview.
I love him
Is he wearing Elton John's earring? 😂
What a cool guy, love the blur's music and Gorillaz 👌
Amazing album
Love you damon
Damon, love you man! I have LOVED a handful of bands through the years...Smiths, U2, The Cure, Elbow, Radiohead, Blur, Gorillaz...but if I could only point to ONE person that was an integral part of so much great music it would have to be you!
But I'll NEVER forgive you for jumping into the crowd front row center in Boston (or was it Brooklyn?) last Gorillaz tour and embracing everyone around me BUT me!
Oh how much i want Still Woozy on a Gorillaz track, it would sound very interesting.
I love damon OwO
I cant believe how cute he is ....his ears got bigger ahahahahahah!!!!
damon gets in the zone and feels like he's in new order, i get in the zone and feel like i'm in gorillaz
Damon is slowly turning into Alfie Solomons
he will start to enjoy breaking back out. ♡
I thank Damon for making beige harrigton jackets fashionable again....Oh and the music hahaa
The guy interviewing looks like Mike Smith
Leee didn't wear a leather thong lol! The lost chord is my stand out favourite from the album
same here !
Mine as well...that song is quintessential Gorillaz...no pretentions
Where does he talk about beck?
@shut up still have a copy of odelay man what an album always remember a friend putting it on and was imediately like who is that man .....Can I borrow that beck album hehee
The heck happened with "track by track"?
And neither was it a breakdown

'

😀😃😀😃
I still navent receive my son machine pre orer and no one answers my emails
Have you gotten a confirmation email yet?
They had a delay because of the pandemic. It took 1 month for me to get the order confirmation after buying it. But i got it and the disc arrives today!! :D just patience. cheers
Is it only me or does he kinda sound like 2d?
ha.
Soyons positif ......
Positives....😄😄😄
Merci pour ce message. Après avoir lu ce message, je vais te faire un promesse. Je vais être l’homme le plus positif dans le monde. Maintenant, j’ai un message pour toi! Si tu existes, arrêt. Est-ce ça t’inspire? J’espère qu’oui.
where did he said he is?
Devon
Is he missing his gold tooth again?
Might need to fish for it again
Pan fer gold
He’s no the only one struggling to get a dentist it seems 🖤
@@louise_thacker_spinning9281 yep I've been given a composite in the same tooth they say they can save it but time is banging on with covid please man I want my front tooth and nobody cares lol I feel your pain Louise
@@kegalormoon sad times buddy. I’ve needed a replacement crown since the start of March. It’s up the side so no toooo bad. Face coverings are always welcome. I take comfort in Damon missing a tooth too x
Albarn and his whistling S words
🙉🙉🙉🙉🙉🙉🙉🙉🙉
Damon (I just try to make the worst music I can.........Well you definitely do that) Albarn
Damon looks more depressed than Brian Sanchez does!
Isn’t he always hungover from the night before
no clips of tracks?
Copyright
UA-cam will claim the video
Go to Gorillaz channel, there is the full deluxe album as a playlist, full songs.
Who tf disliked Damon??
No mention of St. Vincent :(
Damon loves 2D so much that he lost his teeth. Fair enough.
What are your thoughts om the new album? Not so promising imo but there are some quality songs
I thought it was their weakest album, momentary bliss and aries were absolutely amazing but the rest were either boring and forgettable or hard to finish listening to.
I love It 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
@@frenchytinkles That's sad. I love Desolé
He is so... Old... ;-;
51? that is kind of a weird comment to put and..look at him in blur
Everyone gets old dude. You will too If you're lucky.
yeah that’s how life works lol
@@funkunko i am just scared, one day this legend will simply die
I agree with Damon and many other musicians that Boris Johnson and Eton lot have ruined the arts! We need not pay attention that to that blond hair bafoon! I still think that the arts will be better under a more liberal government! I'm afraid Johnson and his lot have ruined the arts! Get a labour government in so maybe the arts will improve!
