In Who framed Roger Rabbit the actors had to talk, touch and in general interact with the toons, which is a totally different process. the production of Who Framed Roger Rabbit was a horrible process, as no one on set really knew how it would look in the end, everyone simply pretending whats there. rotoscoping is adding drawn elements on top of allready shot footage without the actors in the scene expecting anything to be added. Despite in this video/series above the Gorillaz characters are made to fit into the scene, they'r enot directly involved with the real people. the problem with "acting with" cartoon characters is finidning the balance between acting naturally but also not over acting, as cartoon characters usually oversaturate everything. Which is part of the metajoke in Roger Rabbit.
Nope. Plus, I'm so happy that they're back to experimenting with a more punk rock sound, instead of the "suburban melancholic dance electropop rap" they've been stuck in ever since Demon Days. Not that I dislike their recent stuff, but I kind of gave up on it, since, to me, it obviously lacked that gut punch from the first album. You know, back when they featured this skeleton more prominently. :P
Pedro Capinha Actually I wasnt reffering to the skeleton as a throwback to the old days, I just love that little guy and I was kinda sad when they decided to leave him behind. And regarding to their new music, I really like it. I feel like Gorillaz is one of those bands who never really made bad music (not all of their songs are great but still, they're not bad) even If they went through numerous changes along the time they stay true to themselves.
What we need is that original film they were making years back that is a narrative of the characters. Now that we have loads of phases that they can go over it would be lovely.
Can we take a second to appreciate how the animation at 1:17 actually has Noodle playing the correct notes, and she even does the fingering slightly different than the guy in the background? That is a commitment to detail in both animation AND musicianship. This is why Gorillaz are immortally incredible
Things we all like about this video- -The lyrics -Cat Murdoc -2D's smile -Noodle's absolutely fire swinging -Russel reading the newspaper -Cat Murdoc -2D's smile -Cat Murdoc
Noodle: Dancing and playing guitar 2D: Doing lead vocals as usual Russel: In the background for like 1 second Murdoc: drinking random shit and straight up vomiting

3:09 As a Kid I had a Gorillaz poster above my bed... every night I went to sleep watching that face... over 20 years ago... still listening to their music. Great time...time is running....time and again -Let's sing a Serenade-

“Yesterday, Gorillaz teased something called Song Machine with a 20-second song and video. Today, the virtual band revealed exactly what the project is in a new press release: an episodic series following the creation of brand new songs. The show's first edition drops tomorrow at 7.30pm GMT, and will follow the creation of "Momentary Bliss," a new song featuring slowthai and Slaves. The song will also be available to stream after the show's debut. According to a press release, more episodes and tunes from Song Machine will be released over the course of 2020. "In direct opposition to the usual traditional recording/single/album release cycle, the band again breaks convention in their own round the back door fashion with the spontaneous delivery of episodes throughout the year."
Yeah when I saw that I was thinking if it sounded like this than the album would be ok but when I heard the trailer for momentary bliss I am fucking excited for tomorrow
@@tonytchopper5213except he clearly is chill. One interview doesn’t override the fact that he objectively does seem to vibe with so many different musicians and artists lmao
gorillaz at the end of 2019: here's movie about all our past tours and two new albums gorillaz at the beginning of 2020: what about series BEFORE new album?
@FBI Alypstick Can't they just start a Kickstarter or GoFundMe if they're having difficulties to get the money needed to do a Gorillaz animated series or a movie? On the other hand, I don't think we've seen a Gorillaz comic series as well. So... a good alternative if the animated series or movie isn't feasible?
Honestly this feels like the “10 years later” nostalgic revival season of the cartoon that Gorillaz never was. There’s something so cozy abt seeing the band holed up in the studio and the catching their little moments interacting with the collaborating artists.
@@SprocketWatchclock He's not playing the wrong notes, he is just playing the song one octave down in the video, actually in the production of the song you can hear 2 basses. (sorry for my english)
That's one of the reasons I love Gorillaz. Instead of just showing the characters playing their instruments randomly, they take the time to do the correct notes. Even Russel's drum playing is correct.
I was upset about Murdoc, but then 2D smiled at me and I completely forgot about our vomiting green man and instinctively smiled and waved at 2D like he could see me.
Not their most elaborate video, but I love the whole vibe of it. It really makes you feel like you're in the studio with everyone putting the song together during both the intense bits of putting your nose to the grindstone and the small breaks or relaxing moments inbetween. Just that feeling of being in a group and working together to make something.

My dad:"The truth is the Bill's they must be paid." My mom:"WE HAVE 2 WEEKS WE CAN DO IT TOMORROW!" Me:* continues to recite every lyric of the rest of the song. *

I haven't read Rise of the ogre in a while but I swear somewhere in that book it said he was immortal, I'd drink poison if I was tbf just to pass the time lmao.
It's all about Damon Albarn. Gorillaz are......Albarn. Jamie is in charge of animation but Damon is the ONLY constant in every Gorillaz song. Follow Albarn's other major works & you cannot go wrong. Blur; The Good The Bad And The Queen: his solo album is very chill with a few real gems...I even love his album with musicians from Mali, Africa. Damon Albarn is my favorite artist.
Daniel Ostling also Murdoc: tweets to 2D that if he needs a hug, he’s at the balcony and that it would be nice if he brings him a cup of tea with 7 sugars
I like this new sound approach, reminiscent of the Blur days in the 90’s with an aggressive beat, reverb warp guitar and others . Also what is 2d wearing around his neck? A bead necklace? Wicked Edit: I mean to say that Damon sounds likes he’s having so much fun making music. The excitement is phenom
Not gonna lie this song is how I first discovered that the more you listen to a Gorillaz song the more you like it. This is happened with some other songs too like Saturnz Barz and superfast jellyfish but this is the first time I really like noticed it.
Gorillaz lore aside this is probably one of the most creative songs I’ve heard in 2020 so far. The mix between classic punk rock aesthetics and a more modern form of it as well as the hip hop verse was fucking cool. Also the animation for noodle playing the guitar was insanely detailed.
Go Quibi, so can be mobile on my mobile, if on Quibi then anytime need a Gorillaz quickee, can just reach into my pocket ... there’s a hole in my pocket ... momentary bliss indeed *btw don’t keep smartphone in pocket, that would be nutts

From everything I know about Gorillaz Lore Noodle is pretty much carrying the entire band. She not only writes all the music she plays most of it save for drums and is in charge of getting 2-D and Murdoc to get their shit together enough to perform. She also frequently saves their asses from disaster.
Fuzunga I think all of them are. They seem to get along quite better. I think it’s great seeing all of them work together again in such a well created video. Gorillaz is about all the creators, from Gorillaz or not. So they’re truly back to their roots.
I wish we see more of Russel. Like, I know everyone's favorites are 2D and Noodle and Murdoc but Russel is apart of the Gorillaz too and it really sucks to see him for 2 seconds and that's it. He's the percussionist, of a 4 piece band. Let's see him some more. EDIT: I know about the animations where he speaks. That's old shit, I want new Russ content, please and thanks. Yes, I see his voice actor. Russ showed up once in this video. Doesn't change my point. And thank you for 2.something thousand likes. Glad I'm not the only one who wants the full group doing a thing.
absolutely love this noodle’s dancing is A1 (also her outfit) murdoc is back!! NEEDED MORE RUSSEL 2-D is wholesome we must protect our boy at all costs
Cosmic Deity The Haunted House? The Weird Pizza thing? That music video “Tranz”? His eyes were white but he wasn’t happy, in fact it glowed so bright it was light
Still hoping for an animated Gorillaz movie that incorporates their songs by writing around the settings of specific music videos. It'd be rated R, of course. Imagine seeing the action-packed sequences of On Melancholy Hill and Rhinestone Eyes unfold on the big screen. Later on we'd get Del guiding them through the graveyard in order to escape the zombie gorillas. This would all unwind in-between the main story beats of 2D's journey to achieve self-actualization as we see his character develop events such as Dirty Harry, Feel Good Inc., Humility, etc. And finally a sobering end as they all lead a simple life singing about everyday truths from the studio seen in Momentary Bliss... or something to that effect lol
@@zxr9291 You know how in cartoon movies they might show a little angel and devil on someone's shoulder. Typically the angel is on one shoulder telling the character to do the righteous thing and the devil is on the other shoulder telling them to do the selfish thing. Well, the angel represents that person's Superego (super Ego), and the devil represents that person's Id. In the middle, the character themselves represent their Ego (a mix of the two). In Clint Eastwood, it seemed to me like Russell's inner voice that came out was his Superego.
When Gorillaz released their first album I was 11 years old. It was the first cd I bought in my life, I saved money from school lunch to get it. I grew up listening their music, and it stills melt my mind. It's so nice seeing Noodle all grow up, I feel like we are ageing together. Great song by the way, I realy enjoyed the clip. keep it going.
There *has* to be a limit to how green murdoc can get.

It’s actually so cool to see 2-D, Noodle, Russ and Murdoc just chilling with the actual band members.
My theory the 2-d is damon
@@youssef-mohamed692 that theory is technically true
@Eeybui Vee wait they're not real?
@@kimson5221 next they'll say Santa isn't real. Pfft.
@@eins2001 Or the queen of England
Can we take a second to appreciate how the animation at 1:17 actually has Noodle playing the correct notes, and she even does the fingering slightly different than the guy in the background? That is a commitment to detail in both animation AND musicianship. This is why Gorillaz are immortally incredible

Does Murdocs retching count as a lyric?
Ele copiou e colou do genius
Thanks
I just realized that Murdoc put some of that "poison" in Damon's cup, at the beginning of the video, lol
And then drank the poison.
Because poison is a part of love
I think Murdoc drank the poison thinking it did nothing cause nothing happened to Damon
lol kept thinking about how Jamie probably loved the fact he could draw all over everything, including Damon to fuck with him in any way he pleased. love those 2 lads
@@applejuice7108 and near the end you can see him puking the poison
I'm 100% sure that
"*Murdoc vomiting sounds*" or "*Murdoc dieing sounds*" is part of the lyrics.
It's part of the actual song, you can hear murdoc puking

“Yesterday, Gorillaz teased something called Song Machine with a 20-second song and video. Today, the virtual band revealed exactly what the project is in a new press release: an episodic series following the creation of brand new songs. The show's first edition drops tomorrow at 7.30pm GMT, and will follow the creation of "Momentary Bliss," a new song featuring slowthai and Slaves. The song will also be available to stream after the show's debut.
According to a press release, more episodes and tunes from Song Machine will be released over the course of 2020. "In direct opposition to the usual traditional recording/single/album release cycle, the band again breaks convention in their own round the back door fashion with the spontaneous delivery of episodes throughout the year."
Quel Gamer Mancato www.thefader.com/2020/01/29/gorillaz-slowthai-and-slaves-tomorrow-momentar-bliss-song-machine :)
So this is confirmed to be only a web series show? (Not on cable or streaming)
This is just like unus annus in a way only difference is gorillaz won't delete any of the videos :-)
Bro. _Bro._
Yeah when I saw that I was thinking if it sounded like this than the album would be ok but when I heard the trailer for momentary bliss I am fucking excited for tomorrow

Lol which ones re-posted?
Gorillaz fans body been ready since ole Clint Eastwoo
@FBI Alypstick Can't they just start a Kickstarter or GoFundMe if they're having difficulties to get the money needed to do a Gorillaz animated series or a movie?
On the other hand, I don't think we've seen a Gorillaz comic series as well. So... a good alternative if the animated series or movie isn't feasible?
That'll be so cool tho
I can see that happening
Honestly this feels like the “10 years later” nostalgic revival season of the cartoon that Gorillaz never was. There’s something so cozy abt seeing the band holed up in the studio and the catching their little moments interacting with the collaborating artists.

@@SprocketWatchclock He's not playing the wrong notes, he is just playing the song one octave down in the video, actually in the production of the song you can hear 2 basses. (sorry for my english)
That's one of the reasons I love Gorillaz. Instead of just showing the characters playing their instruments randomly, they take the time to do the correct notes. Even Russel's drum playing is correct.
we can all learn how to play guitar from her now
Can we just appreciate noodle in general
IT MAKES ME SICK TO THINK YOU AINT HAPPY IN YOUR SKIN
Good song bro
Blap blap, good shit

Good ass song
4:32 Aww, popping out 2D on the right!
Unfortunately ruined by Murdoc throwing up on the left, but I mean, nobody told him to drink that poison so.
I was upset about Murdoc, but then 2D smiled at me and I completely forgot about our vomiting green man and instinctively smiled and waved at 2D like he could see me.
Not their most elaborate video, but I love the whole vibe of it. It really makes you feel like you're in the studio with everyone putting the song together during both the intense bits of putting your nose to the grindstone and the small breaks or relaxing moments inbetween. Just that feeling of being in a group and working together to make something.

I like this new sound approach, reminiscent of the Blur days in the 90’s with an aggressive beat, reverb warp guitar and others . Also what is 2d wearing around his neck? A bead necklace? Wicked
Edit: I mean to say that Damon sounds likes he’s having so much fun making music. The excitement is phenom
Wakiki Time it also reminded me of the Blur and the music they made. It makes me super happy! I hope the rest of the songs are more similar to it

Not gonna lie this song is how I first discovered that the more you listen to a Gorillaz song the more you like it. This is happened with some other songs too like Saturnz Barz and superfast jellyfish but this is the first time I really like noticed it.
Gorillaz lore aside this is probably one of the most creative songs I’ve heard in 2020 so far. The mix between classic punk rock aesthetics and a more modern form of it as well as the hip hop verse was fucking cool. Also the animation for noodle playing the guitar was insanely detailed.
Exactly this.
I was comparing the hand movements from the animation and the actual musician and they match up really closely. Super cool.
WHAT DID YOU SAY!?
no. Damon spoiled Slaves.
This song reminded me a lot of the Clash and their music

Poster boy (Yeah, alright)
Poster girl (Ah, that's time)
The truth, the bills, they must be paid (Uh-huh)
And what is left is certain kinda typical
All you need to change your face
You're gettin' sold, it's such a waste
You know, we could do so much better than this
Swimmin' in pools of momentary bliss
Where you gotta find a family 'cause everybody taken
They worry you keep on adding
I think you gotta crawl
[slowthai:]
It makes me sick to think you ain't happy in your skin
It's weird thing to think light bulb don't blink
Just flickers to them, then it pops and withers
You're a turkey twizzler, you deserve school dinners
It makes me sick to think you ain't happy in your skin
It's weird thing to think light bulb don't blink
Just flickers to them, then it pops and withers
You're a turkey twizzler, you deserve school dinners
Makes me sick
[Slaves:]
We could do so much better than this
Emotionally in fences and momentary bliss
We could do so much better than this
Oh, Rita, oh, Rita
We could do so much better than this
Perfect little pictures of moments that we missed
We could do so much better than this
Oh, Rita, oh, Rita
Thank you very much! :D
Btw what does “Oh Rita” mean?
@@reeceispiecies it's a reference to the Beatles (lovely rita meter maid)
Btw it mausoleum faces, not emotionally in fences.
Michael Cameron thanks never really listened to the Beatles
Happy 4 years everyone, it's absolute insanity the level of history that has happened since the release of this song. Be glad that we're still here to listen and jam as the passage of time increases our number. Happy 4 years
When he said "your potential, you lack credentials," I felt that
Your dog felt that your cat felt that your mom felt that your dad felt that your sister felt that your aunt felt that your uncle felt that your granddad felt that your grandmother felt that, everyone felt that.
Seems like Noodle was the only one really contributing. She's always having a good time, I feel like.
She also has the cool shoe shine
Fuzunga i remember being a kid and thinking noodle was so cool and now shes such a babe
From everything I know about Gorillaz Lore Noodle is pretty much carrying the entire band. She not only writes all the music she plays most of it save for drums and is in charge of getting 2-D and Murdoc to get their shit together enough to perform. She also frequently saves their asses from disaster.
@@ZiddersRooFurry well she is technically a genius made for making awesome music
Also nazi fighting machine
Fuzunga I think all of them are. They seem to get along quite better. I think it’s great seeing all of them work together again in such a well created video. Gorillaz is about all the creators, from Gorillaz or not. So they’re truly back to their roots.
I wish we see more of Russel. Like, I know everyone's favorites are 2D and Noodle and Murdoc but Russel is apart of the Gorillaz too and it really sucks to see him for 2 seconds and that's it. He's the percussionist, of a 4 piece band. Let's see him some more.
EDIT: I know about the animations where he speaks. That's old shit, I want new Russ content, please and thanks. Yes, I see his voice actor. Russ showed up once in this video. Doesn't change my point. And thank you for 2.something thousand likes. Glad I'm not the only one who wants the full group doing a thing.
Absolutely. Russ has been my favorite since the Clint Eastwood video.
Yesss
agreed
Really makes me think of how Dave feels maybe... (Damon’s other band BLUR which is a 4 piece band as well)
Yeah fr, Russell never gets screen time anymore.
I will never stop praising that guitar at the beginning and at the end. It’s soooo goood!
absolutely love this
noodle’s dancing is A1 (also her outfit)
murdoc is back!!
NEEDED MORE RUSSEL
2-D is wholesome we must protect our boy at all costs
🙌 💖
This coment is a perfect summary of every single thing about Gorillaz
No one wants to see 2-D's eyes go black and emotionless again so YESH WE NUST PROTECT ARE LITTLE WHOLESOME BOI
0:54 Murdoc giving strong cat energy
Lmao i---
murdoc always has cat energy for some reason
@@withersheep9009 he drived a car into a music shop, that's what i think a cat would do if they knew how to drive
BYE LITERALLY I LOVE HIM SO MUCH 😭
Haha major cat vibes go brrr
2-Ds eyes are still white... glad he’s happy even tho Murdoc’s back
Or... he is possessed again
@@Joawlisdoingfine he's never been possessed
Cosmic Deity
The Haunted House? The Weird Pizza thing?
That music video “Tranz”? His eyes were white but he wasn’t happy, in fact it glowed so bright it was light
@@Joawlisdoingfine Or maybe, hear me out. Jamie made them white because he wanted to?
Yeah
Crazy how many times I blasted this song during lockdown. Puts me in such a weird headspace I love it haha
Still hoping for an animated Gorillaz movie that incorporates their songs by writing around the settings of specific music videos. It'd be rated R, of course. Imagine seeing the action-packed sequences of On Melancholy Hill and Rhinestone Eyes unfold on the big screen. Later on we'd get Del guiding them through the graveyard in order to escape the zombie gorillas. This would all unwind in-between the main story beats of 2D's journey to achieve self-actualization as we see his character develop events such as Dirty Harry, Feel Good Inc., Humility, etc. And finally a sobering end as they all lead a simple life singing about everyday truths from the studio seen in Momentary Bliss... or something to that effect lol
This^^^
wtf is a superego
@@zxr9291 You know how in cartoon movies they might show a little angel and devil on someone's shoulder. Typically the angel is on one shoulder telling the character to do the righteous thing and the devil is on the other shoulder telling them to do the selfish thing. Well, the angel represents that person's Superego (super Ego), and the devil represents that person's Id. In the middle, the character themselves represent their Ego (a mix of the two). In Clint Eastwood, it seemed to me like Russell's inner voice that came out was his Superego.
@@DaJoka14 thats not an inner voice its Del, a ghost that was haunting russell
@@zxr9291 Oh sht, I didn't know that lol.
When Gorillaz released their first album I was 11 years old. It was the first cd I bought in my life, I saved money from school lunch to get it. I grew up listening their music, and it stills melt my mind. It's so nice seeing Noodle all grow up, I feel like we are ageing together. Great song by the way, I realy enjoyed the clip. keep it going.
De Nali we kinda have the same story bro there first album was the first album I got.got it as a gift from my mom when I was 11
I was in my 30's, and I feel like I grew up with them too ;-)
Still melts my mind and Clint Eastwood may well be my fave song ever!
@Lacey Kean 48. And wow you're... Um... Youngerr than me I suppose. Enjoy it kid, I did. Youth that is.
@@dreddiknight damn I'm 11 now ...
No
