    Feels like it could be the end credits song where you reflect on the adventure you just had while seeing screenshots of all your good times.

    Your choice of songs to use and the instruments used is very coherent. And you clearly took your time putting this together. There's obvious respect for both The Gorillaz and David Wise here... these are really good man

    Hearing a song off my all time favourite album using a soundfont from my favourite game-series soundtrack is something I never thought about but feels super special. Amazing work.

      Same. When I was listening to this song for the first time, I was just becoming a man. When I beat Donkey Kong 2, I was becoming a teen. It's surreal because I'm just finding this song as I take my paramedic state test next week, so maybe this combination will be me turning into a medic? My adult dream may come true to this song.

    When I first got into Gorillaz, it was kind of a pivotal moment of my life. We had just moved back into my childhood home, I was to attend vocational school at the end of summer, I was beginning to have real life responsibilities at 16 and I was excited to be an almost adult. Things were so easy then, it felt like I had the world by its ass and no one could take that away. Mom got a DUI over the summer so I ended up driving more than ever because she couldn't and as a thanks, we would go to waterparks together. It was a blessed time as we were close but never really hung out like that. And I know she hated having the DUI, but it brought us closer together and gave me memories I'll treasure forever. I just wish I took more pictures and spent less time chasing girls. Now I'm 29 and the Plastic Beach album (or really the greatest hits album since that was my first one, but I watched mostly Plastic Beach music videos on UA-cam) takes me right the hell back. I miss it so much. Maybe I'll miss being 29 too one day. I would love to like, live through my happy moments again, even if it was just a dream. The ability to go back and reexperience that period would be bliss...

    Lyrics:
    Up on Melancholy Hill, there's a plastic tree
    Are you here with me?
    Just looking out on the day of another dream
    Where you can't get what you want, but you can get me
    So let's set out to sea, love
    'Cause you are my medicine when you're close to me
    When you're close to me
    So call in the submarines, 'round the world we'll go
    Does anybody know her?
    If we're looking out on the day of another dream?
    If you can't get what you want, then you come with me
    Up on Melancholy Hill
    Sits the manatee, love
    Just looking out for the day when you're close to me
    When you're close to me
    When you're close to me...

    Because the Live Version with the intro of Headbanger reminds me of Castlevania.
