my favorite thing about Damon and the Gorillaz is that his voice is literally identical live and studio. it's not edited or rerecorded over and over until it's perfect, it's just his voice and that's it
[Yukimi Nagano:] Waiting by the mailbox, by the train Passin' by the hills 'til I hear the name I'm looking for a saw to cut these chains in half and all I want is Someone to rely on as Thunder comes a rolling down Someone to rely on as Lightning comes a staring in again [Damon Albarn:] I'll wait to be forgiven Maybe I never will My star has left me To take the bitter pill That shattered feeling Well the 'cause of it's a lesson learned Just don't know if I could roll into the sea again "Just don't know if I could do it all again," she said, it's true [Yukimi Nagano:] Waiting in my room and I lock the door I watch the coloured animals 'cross the floor And I'm looking from a distance And I'm listening to the whispers And, oh, it ain't the same When you're falling out of feeling And you're ralling in and caught again Caught again [Damon Albarn:] I'm caught again in the mystery You're by my side, but are you still with me?

I come back to this one alot. This is the version I knew growing up. My Mom would play it to help herself calm down when getting ready for Dialysis. It always seemed to feel like things were okay for a little bit when Gorillaz was playing. I miss her every day.
@@kiranraveendran2437 I am and I really appreciate the comment. I put those lyric comments up almost six years ago now when she was still alive. Gorillaz got us through a lot when she was sick, and they were one of the nicest continuities in our life with all of the turmoil surrounding us. Listening to this was like being home, no matter where we were. We had music to keep us together and I look back on that time with nothing but fondness. I am so thankful she imparted her music interests on me because I’ll always have her with me through this.
Mind fucking blown. I thought I had listened to and loved every Gorillaz song there was, and yet there they go nonchalantly tossing out a masterpiece again.
this made me question myself with this question. "If life's hardest part is death, then what's deaths hardest part? Acceptance?" I'm super depressed now. I wish I didn't say that. but it's got me really thinking.
Little Dragon was always such a perfect fit for Gorillaz. She should be considered an official member at this point. Damon Albarn obviously has a talent for songwriting, but he has an exceptional and unique talent for choosing who he collaborates with.
@@rt09pachuau21 2d was designed with Damon's features in mind. I can't confirm that noodle was designed based off yukimi(little dragon) but I like to think so.
@@vladskiobi Her father is Japanese, mother American. Not entirely sure if you get green eyes just by living in Sweden, but I'm quite positive that's not how DNA works. Also, sorry about being a dick. /Green eyed Swede
It had to be for that one song, that I finally realise that Damon's tremendous voice definitely comes with kind of a Peter Gabriel component to it. Hence the love. They are different indeed, but a little somewhat similar on some aspects.
"Its all a blur"
ba-dum-tiss
Aran Smeallie 7 years since this interview and I'm still cringing
Octavia Melody Blur is the name other the band Damon Albarn was in
thats what i thought 😂
You can see Damon's laugh lmao hahaha
She'll be there allllll night! LOL
Fuck sake. That intro and outro was so loud I just about spilt all my cocaine lines on the floor.
This is why I just inject tar heroin into my veins. You'll have to be a professional idiot to spill it on the ground when you get startled.
My God that sweet sweet ending of this song and I'm closing my damn eyes ...then all of a sudden
OUTRO!!!!!!! #Woke
Gorgeous, sublime performance... then that inexcusable, obnoxious ID noise. Fer crissakes, who put this clip together?
I just shit my pants and then did cocaine to get motivated to change them.
I love how both Damon, the xylophone player, and the piano player are in costume with a sort of modern take on the classic sailor look.
I see that lul
Damon is the piano player?
Little Dragon is EXACTLY how I imagine live version of Noodle would look like
Nah. That's not her stage name. Yukimi is apart of the band little dragon
+RandoTheMighty Yukimi Nagano
nakimi yugano
Oh shit. thank you.
Dunno why, I was certain it was one of the girl from Cibo Matto who participated in Gorillaz... :/
Painting to this song is heaven
糸霊 i wish this song lasted forever
Jimin!!!
I was just planning on doing that?
"youre by my side but are you still with me" that line thoughhhhhh lol
always hits me!
I love her voice, it is very cute and cuddly
Sawyer James 😏
Sawyer James i cried
Станислав Редькин ikr
Sawyer James gay
Man, their voices complement each other so well.
I love how Damon kinda looks like 2D.
(Or how 2D maybe looks like Damon..)
Derp the teeth are the same
Caio Junqueira I ain't even mad
Also it makes damon very characteristic I think
Derp yes, I think that too
OR MAYBE, Damon looks like Damon and 2D looks like 2D 0.o
My god this is magical.
It really is.
DownNickle EatPotatoChips It really really really is.
it really really really really really is
+CounterNerd I keep seeing your comments on videos
+Matt Ritchie Yeah I'm pretty magical. Late reply, huh? I just get that all the time.
my favorite thing about Damon and the Gorillaz is that his voice is literally identical live and studio. it's not edited or rerecorded over and over until it's perfect, it's just his voice and that's it
Yukimi and Damon should record album together. It would sound so loveley :)
Damon sounds identical live as on the album. Very impressive, great voice.
[Yukimi Nagano:]
Waiting by the mailbox, by the train
Passin' by the hills 'til I hear the name
I'm looking for a saw to cut these chains in half and all I want is
Someone to rely on as
Thunder comes a rolling down
Someone to rely on as
Lightning comes a staring in again
[Damon Albarn:]
I'll wait to be forgiven
Maybe I never will
My star has left me
To take the bitter pill
That shattered feeling
Well the 'cause of it's a lesson learned
Just don't know if I could roll into the sea again
"Just don't know if I could do it all again," she said, it's true
[Yukimi Nagano:]
Waiting in my room and I lock the door
I watch the coloured animals 'cross the floor
And I'm looking from a distance
And I'm listening to the whispers
And, oh, it ain't the same
When you're falling out of feeling
And you're ralling in and caught again
Caught again
[Damon Albarn:]
I'm caught again in the mystery
You're by my side, but are you still with me?
The answer's somewhere deep in it, I'm sorry that you're feeling it
But I just have to tell you that I love you so much these days
Have to tell you that I love you so much these days, it's true
[Damon Albarn (Yukini Nagano):]
My heart is in economy
Due to this autonomy
Rolling in and caught again
Caught again
[Both:]
Caught again
Caught again
Caught again
My heart is in economy
Due to this autonomy
Rolling in and caught again
Caught again
This version of this song would be perfert for an Indie movie.
***** it kind of is with the atmosphere of the movie
I thought it (the album version, however) was absolutely perfect in the gravity falls pilot.
Lotus Flower they used it for the movie The Family
YEAHHH NICE IDEA :D
Little Dragon is SO underrated!
centavo X YUP!
Underrated? By whom? Yukimi Nagano and Little Dragon are amazing!
Best live show of my life
@@misterj9619 because she is just a member of the band little dragon
"Its all a blur". I just realized that announcer girl reference Damon's old band blur
JimBroTF2 Hes still doing Blur stuff, thats why he's stopped Gorillaz momentarily
John Smith I know many people have said this, but at least gorillaz are back in 2016
+JimBroTF2 I find it funny how he can't help but chuckle about that.
+JimBro well well look who it is
SoduhParty I'VE BEEN SPOTTED
Her vocal abilities are off the charts..her work is very diverse and spans a long time. She's an amazing singer.
Sounds so much better with live instruments
The instrumentals and vocals are sadder here...breaks my heart a heck of a lot faster than the studio version. (CRACK) Whoops, there it goes.
Rach Frisella I totally agree about the mood change in the song. I didn't feel sad, but I did feel something :)
I love how Little Dragon is always really into whatever she's performing :)
I come back to this one alot. This is the version I knew growing up.
My Mom would play it to help herself calm down when getting ready for Dialysis. It always seemed to feel like things were okay for a little bit when Gorillaz was playing.
I miss her every day.
I believe, you are the lyrics guy from another video. I hope you are doing well.

They compliment each other so well. They should do more duets like this.
When she says "It's all a Blur"
Even Damon appreciated that dad joke.
@@chillestbread9166 what does it mean
Damon Albarn is also the frontman of the famous british band 'Blur'
His music is a gift. Thank you Damon and all the musicians.
I'm not crying...you are!
ellie That's a fact
ellie sure why not
Damon has such a beautiful voice on this version. It's like him and Yukimi are singing me a lullaby 🌙
Magical voices,favorite song off of Plastic Beach!!!
wow, these two live are amazing!
What a beautiful song rediscovered love again myself today at 51 what a feeling
wow, this made me feel amazing, I could listen to this all day
One of my favourite tracks on Plastic Beach and i just love this live performance. Its such a dream
this is so magical it makes me feel light hearted all the time
This version showed a side of Gorillaz we've never seenor heard before
Sahara King we have
Listen this song semi-drunk and among blankets, it's... let's say something magical... or maybe i'm too drunk
Fredy Rosero it is
Fredy Rosero this comment is especially funny and ironic given the song they're performing
Creo que si estás pedo jajajaja
This will forever be one of my favorite songs.
1:49 for the start
mjacksonisperfect yes because everybody reads the comments before watching the video
Jonas Marsmann actually many do smart one
Just skip to 1:50 let's be real
thanks!
Alban Villegas
+P. Dongus (Zoop) personally i enjoy seeing the musicians as actual people having conversation. it makes the music that much better i think.
lets be fake
P. Dongus this has to be top comment
I'm not into live versions.....but this is a blessing
this made me question myself with this question. "If life's hardest part is death, then what's deaths hardest part? Acceptance?" I'm super depressed now. I wish I didn't say that. but it's got me really thinking.
I just see them really putting their hearts into this. idk I just love this the more I listen.
Such a beautiful performance. They really put all of their heart into it and it just draws me to tears
If Damon wasn't married I would totally ship that. Like so hard
he's not..
+Hannah Dias he is and he has a child...
He does have a daughter... but he's not married... he isn't single tho
Hannah Dias
he's dating someone?
cb williams he has a partner suzy
I love this song ❤❤
I love Gorillaz with the most intense non-creepy passion. This video made me so happy :)
Best version of this song
Little Dragon was always such a perfect fit for Gorillaz. She should be considered an official member at this point. Damon Albarn obviously has a talent for songwriting, but he has an exceptional and unique talent for choosing who he collaborates with.
Even if he cannot remember their name.
I won't deny that I still prefer the studio/edited version, but this version is almost just as amazing. Gorillaz!
I can't wait to see this live one day.
This is the dream.
Damon always had a pleasing voice, but I always felt like this song really showcases what he can do
She looks so much like Noodle! Come on have you ever seen a Japanese with green eyes?!? She's so beautiful omg, identical to noodle
I heard somewhere her isms were the inspiration for noodle.
Damon also kinda looks like 2D sometimes.😄 Looks like he's missing his front teeth too, like 2D.
@@rt09pachuau21 2d was designed with Damon's features in mind. I can't confirm that noodle was designed based off yukimi(little dragon) but I like to think so.
Her green eyes are probably something to do with her being half Swedish.

/Green eyed Swede
This is my favorite song on the album it was just beautiful 😊
this is just so pretty omg
i love how yukimi moves like she's actually speaking the words to someone!!
Words cannot explain how amazing 3:10 - 3:35 sounds.
"I wait to be forgiven. Maybe I never will." Words of wisdom~ Jamie Hewlett
"jamie hewlett"
um
THATS DAMON SJDDJDNDJ
They sound so lovely together, great chemistry~
Yukimi is a goddess. This is a great piece, love it.
Yukimi is so heartfelt of a Singer. Just a Beautiful Tune all in all. Well Performed by all.
it's soo crazy people singing it just been watching that bottle video for the longest
heavenly, this acoustic version should end up on a record!!
I'm completely mezmorized by Yukimi. Truly amazing.
1:03 "it's all a blur" ...not sure if pun intended or not.
maybe so! :) i noticed damon cracked up after she said it, he caught it!
Dirty Water thought it was a band joke or implying they met by drunk sex
He's definitely an artist that pours his heart and soul in...Amazing!
They look so good together :)
The song is amazing too!
it's so weird hearing 2D's voice but seeing someone else sing it hahahahah omg i love it
This song makes me think so much
had to tell u that i love so much these days it's truuuuue
i love her little voice. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Yukimi's beauty is just as striking as her voice
This version is so soft and beautiful and oh my god..❤️
It had to be for that one song, that I finally realise that Damon's tremendous voice definitely comes with kind of a Peter Gabriel component to it. Hence the love.
They are different indeed, but a little somewhat similar on some aspects.
Forever my favourite
beaaautiful i get chills
i cry everytime
I loved it when she said "its all a blur" he starts crackin' up. Blur is effing amazing as well ^^
This song is too beautiful
