And cyborg noodle :(
@@solace9245 Murdoc cried i cant 😭
Bet cyborg noodle gonna make a comback
@wd PAPER JUICE F
Im sorry but the absolute terror on murdocs face when the portal closed. Jamie did an AMAZING job on showing that he thought they wouldnt come back for them. Murdoc knows hes done terrible things to them, and was not expecting them to come back. And 2D came back for him, his face was just OMG he was SO relieved. Its insane how a perfect combo of music and visuals can create such vivid storytelling
This is why I like Jamie, he puts actual effort and thought into making these
What do you even mean "murdoc did terrible things". They thought noodle died in el manana so he made a cyborg version, not knowing that noodle survived. Are you speaking in assumption perhaps and it wasn't even amazing but i don't even blame jamie anyways. Hand drawn animation are expensive because this music video barely has 4 animation segment comparing to melancholy hill which felt like a cinematic film and don't even get me started on demon days
@@Kotakuchan15 oh no im talking about how murdoc abused and kidnapped all of the band members. Hes done terrible things to all of them, but in the end he makes a change for the better and they notice and come back to save him
@@Kotakuchan15 I think he mainly meant all the abuse he done to 2D, not to mention some crimes
@@VV-sque Well 2d shouldn't left the band
I will forever be grateful for Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett to get drunk enough to come up with an idea for a cartoon band in the 90's. Gorillaz is the best thing to happen during this pandemic.
Huh? Gorillaz are way older than 2020.
@@montek3885 .... did you read the comment? I said 90’s 🤦🏻♀️
@@megan-815 I read it as '90s cartoon band', sorry. Still it sounds wrong hat they 'happen during this pandemic'.
@@montek3885 I get it but he probably just means that they came out with new songs during the pandemic
gorillaz is the best thing to happen ever! they keep me going...
Everyone's talking Murdoc and 2D which is understandable, but does anyone else see that Russel is mainly concerned about Noodles safety. She was safe in his mouth at the beginning, he helps her put onto the lighthouse. Holding her hand, holding her wrist as they go through the portal. He's concerned about her and only her here. It's so cute like an older brother protecting his lil sis
I absolutely love their relationship with each other. It's somewhat overshadowed by Murdoc and 2D's, but I think Noodle and Russel have the best dynamic together. Russel has cared so much for Noodle over the years and like you said, it's really cute.
@@_Blahaj THIS RIGHT HERE
Yeah it was so cute
Russell always been that way, even at the beginning of it all, he was like that with 2-D because Murdoc well he was being Murdoc until Russell couldn’t keep him protected because Murdoc will always kidnap him.. Noodle is the youngest, at one point we thought she was dead, so we can see why Russell will be more protective of her.
@@_Blahaj woah its the ikea shark
but also yeah i really agree and i wish to see more of their dynamic in future mvs
Respect for 2D able to start singing as soon as he throws up a whale.
Lol
Throwing up any spare whales in your throat is one of the most effective vocal warmups before singing
@@AlecNormal it depends on what how smooth of a tone you need to keep, if you want something more gratty and or muffed, Its better to keep some in there ya'know
Much reshpekt
Fun fact: the Whale is the same whale that tries to eat 2-d in rhinestone eyes…it’s name is big dick
Gorillaz: "would you like to see more plastic beach?"
Me: "Boy would I!"
Gorillaz: "Destroyed it"
Technically it's finishing the plot thread we never got to see finished, as they never showed how Russell sunk back down to size and never seemingly explained it until this video.
It's amazing that they have all this lore.
Gone
Its also not done really, damon already said hell probably go back to plastic beach sometime because the world still doesnt understand plastic beach and its importance to our world
@@mitchfisher4106 that's so true, but that was also back in October and they're also working on Sound Machine, maybe it happens soon? I hope so.
@@RubbelisPro dude i feel like song machine just a side project to damon, hes a genius
Me explaining the Gorillaz lore for 45 minutes at Christmas dinner:
2:21 Leee Johnson obliterating the Christmas dinner with his laser eyes half-way through the lore explanation.
So see it all started with a Japanese sleeper agent program for child soldiers....
Its a matter of time before those fanboys say...
1.fancy seeing you here.
2.I didn't expect to see you here.
3.hiiii nate.
Same to my brother lol
jokes aside, I have explained the full lore in somewhat detail to several people. It usually takes about 25 minutes, and this was only after phase 4.
Since Murdoc is the one who literally kidnapped and locked 2D during phase 3, I think the destruction of the Plastic Beach is a nice metaphore of Murdoc losing his control over 2D.
I love this explanation omg
oh shit, this hits hard
Oh God I love your interpretation
But shows that 2d won't just abandon murdoc
I heard someone say it was sad that the plastic beach model was destroyed. But I think for the band, it was probably better for all of them (especially 2-D) to forget about that place so not having it there is probably better for the band.
The lore now be like
“And then, Leee John destroyed plastic beach with his laser eyes-“
*with rhinestone eyes
The only proper way for it to go out.
3": it's.... It's so sad,and even that , is beautiful
Juan 😡
@@ElOroDelTigre did you just solve the riddle of our gorillaz generation?
Here’s a list of some things important things I noticed:
-Murdoc arrives wearing the mask of the Boogeyman
-Noodle falls out of Russ’s mouth, just like her reveal in the Rhinestone Eyes animatics
-2D throws up a miniature Massive Dick in a reference to Cyborg Noodle’s octopus in the Melancholy Hill music video (the same squid can be seen in this video)
-Russel first appears on the island as his giant self from the Plastic Beach Storyline
-The skeleton wearing glasses is Daley from the Doncamatic music video (thx for the fix comment section)
-Skeleton of the Black Cloud Pilot from the Rhinestone Eyes animatics
-Noodle finds her cracked butterfly mask washed up in the sand from the Plastic Beach Storyline
-Cyborg Noodle washed up in Daley’s submarine (also from the Doncamatic music video) graffitied with the word RINGO. This is the name of the ship that Murdoc encountered in his book “The Book of Murdoc”
-Murdoc sheds a tear after seeing the state of Cyborg Noodle
-Leee John: King of The Sea
-Leee John has 2 broken chain cuffs on his wrists, possibly revealing that he has been held captive under Plastic Beach since the very beginning of that album
-The ruined ship where the Boogeyman summoned the crew of the Black Cloud in the Rhinestone Eyes animatics
-The submarine sinks into the depths as Leee John begins his destruction on Plastic Beach, revealing that Cyborg Noodle is STILL ALIVE!
-During the destruction frames, Big Rick Black’s Record Shack can be seen. This is where Murdoc first abducted Russ to be a part of the band all the way back in Phase 1 and that gets destroyed along with Plastic Beach
-As the portal reappears to help the band members escape the sinking island, Murdoc is almost left behind to die before 2D reaches through the portal to save him. This could possibly be 2D paying back Murdoc for leaving Murdoc at the docks during the Desole music video.
Alrighty, that’s about all the major things that I noticed.
Edit: I should probably include that the Pink Phantom escapes into the sky as everyone arrives on Plastic Beach
The skeleton is from the doncamatic guy
@@Wsphhh649 thanks my dude
@@Wsphhh649 the submarine cyborg noodle is in is also the one from doncamatic im pretty sure
the skeleton with glasses could be Daley from the doncamatic video
@Synthetic_ZNX I think the skeleton wearing glasses was Daley? I don’t remember how to spell the name but they were featured in the song Doncamatic and in the music video, he was wearing those glasses.
2D coming back for Murdoc is literally the most heartwarming thing I’ve ever seen.
not saying murdoc deserved to be rescued... but i'm glad 2-D did what he did
I just hope this fires at least one neuron in Murdoc's brain responsible for NOT abusing 2D pls 😂
@@ImSoCool2403 pretty sure hes not abusing 2D anymore (mostly because his eyes are white)
That's incredibly sad
@@ImSoCool2403 supposedly murdoc is no longer being abusive towards him.
1:30 Dang that shot of Noodle looking at her old mask, haunted by the broken memories of her past, gives me chills.
Especially with the lyrics "I've got heartache" in the background...goosebumps
@@asgardali22 The lyric is “I go harder”, not “I’ve got heartache”
@@doxophobiac can you blame them gorillaz is barely understandable and we somehow love it
It's very well orchestrated, utterly beautiful. Amazing profile picture by the way, Jet Set Radio is awesome!
@@T-man2240 thank you. Another man of culture
Is no one gonna talk about how Murdoc cried when he saw Cyborg Noodle dead
so its just you and me
and the likes
I think he cried because
1. The difficulty to build something like that
2. Didn’t he spend more time with cyborg noodle than actual noodle at this time?
@@lionstudios.e-o.7382 i mean thats kinda what i thought but in my opinion, he cried because cyborg noodle has saved Murdoc so much times like in Stylo she saved Murdoc and 2-D from getting arrested
@@lionstudios.e-o.7382 i think he cried bc he remembered why he had built her in the first place, so he probably remembered the whole el mañana thing
But nobody acknowledged robot noodle awake sink to the depths of the sea?
There goes the hope for a new Plastic Beach game
Amo tu trabajo.
God, I used to spend hours playing that. Really makes this video all the more impactful having explored that place as thoroughly as I could.
we could escuba dive for the next game...I mean, in 2:39 to 2:43 we can clearly see cyborg noodle aware and horrofied to wake up in a sinking mini submarine to the bottom of the ocean, maybe the band will rescue her.
OMG
I was still looking for the bloody spanner
this was so symbolic actually, their shared trauma that has been sitting over them for ten years is finally destroyed and they can truly move on.
They already did tho humanz was a reboot and the now now was them moving on
@@baguettemmm6120 TOTALLY AGREED! this whole album was incredibly symbolic in terms of murdoc’s redemption especially and i can’t wait to see where this goes next
@@sneed915 well humanz was kinda more of a “party” album as a comeback due to a six year hiatus. there was barely any lore except when murdoc got arrested towards the end to set it up for the now now. the now now felt more like 2D coming to terms with murdoc being gone and wanting to move on from the abuse and trauma he went through because of him, i feel like the rest of the band didn’t really get to do that yet and this video finally allowed them to truly move on, yknow?
@@baguettemmm6120 also omg when he cried over cyborg noodle it hurt my heart because back then, he thought the real noodle was dead and this robot was really all he had and he MADE HER FROM NOODLES DNA like omfg,,and now shes just destroyed i felt so bad
The fact that Murdoc for a brief moment accepts his fate, then becomes ELATED when 2d comes back just brings tears to my eyes in so many ways. He KNOWS 2d shouldn't have come back but that fact that 2d does just melts my heart.
he looks more panicked and trying to look for a way out than acceptive of his fate
@@geesegrease957 yup he went from panicked to saved with nothing in between.
Even if Murdoc ruined him, 2D still got his back
Murdoc lo maltrato,lo atropello y el echo de que 2-D lo salvará es hermoso
2-D smiles when Murdoc pulls him up 😁
To be abused and tortured by murdoc for years, just to come back and save him from being alone and dying alone. 2D, I salute you.
This
Yes
Hit him some M O R E
Murdoc changed and they’re like 40 in this vid
murdoc said after he was got back from prison he was going to try and be a better person as an apology to 2-d.
i guess apology accepted.
Me: "And then he used his laser eyes to destroy plastic beach!"
My parents: "Sure son, eat your dinner."
Omg😂😂
XD
XD
Jajajajja me too
This is happening to me right now, and I’m 29. 🤣
The fact that 2D helped murdoc up even though he did all that stuff to him on plastic beach makes me so emotional broo
Kkkjjjkghghh ficus KV
Yeah, I was very surprised by him helping Murdoc
The fact this is only partially CGI is why Jamie Hewlett is an underrated artist. The water and models are all real. He’s an incredible man that Gorillaz can’t do without.
I really enjoyed the old Kaiju movies like "Godzilla," "Rodan," Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla," and 'The War of the Gargantulas." I could sense that there was some inspiration from that in the video, and I love that about it. Also, the "Kongscope" caption at the beginning really adds to the cinematic quality.
0:56 this shot is literally fantastic
while jamie is a great artist, he didn't animate this or built the PB model
@@georgeo5557yeah, they gave lee jonh an actual big sea monster serum so that he could turn into an actual big sea monster for an hour before it wore off
@@zartexkrontaculys1097 what are you talking about
When you think about it, this video is Murdoc having to confront his mistakes to a pretty severe extent.
Plastic Beach was a disaster for everyone in the group, one that he pretty much hand-crafted:
- He created Cyborg Noodle to replace Noodle after she went missing.
- He was the one who pissed off the Boogeyman and his pirates and got people killed as the band was forced to split up.
- He was the one who had the band relocate to Plastic Beach in the first place.
In other words, pretty much most (if not all) of Plastic Beach is Murdoc’s fault.
And in this video, when they all wash up on the shore, that’s why Murdoc’s immediately bummed out. Amid the band basically replacing him with Ace for a while, and then willingly leaving him out (as seen in the other Song Machine videos), they’re now brought to the biggest reminder of how terrible he’s been to all of them. And maybe he’s trying to get better, but Plastic Beach still stands as a monument to the terrible, self-centered things that Murdoc has done, and as another reason for the band to never forgive him.
That’s also why Lost Chord (and Song Machine Season 1 as a whole) are so crucial to his character. Throughout the season, we’ve seen and heard that Murdoc is TRYING to be better. He knows he messed up, and he wants to take it all back. The biggest obstacle there is his own selfishness, and his awful treatment of the band thus far. That’s why Noodle and Russell are shown to be skeptical of him trying to get involved again, and why 2D is still constantly protected by the both of them, even as he’s come out of his shell in recent years.
This video is the culmination of that; when confronted with a literal life-or-death situation, Murdoc finally gets to see if the band thinks saving, and worth keeping around. And sure, Noodle and Russ are quick to bolt and leave him behind, but *2D goes back.*
2D, the one whose nickname comes from the very first injuries that Murdoc inflicted on him (2 dents, cuz his eyes were all wonky after Murdoc ran him over twice).
2D, who has been used and abused by Murdoc over the years, forgave him. And whether or not that’s justified isn’t up to us; it’s up to Damon, and Jamie, and everyone else involved with the group.
Song Machine S1 has been a narrative of finding brightness in the darkest times (which we’ve had a lot of, recently) and comfort in an odd world. By extension, saving Murdoc may not be the most justifiable action, but it was one built on hope. And, if Song Machine, the bigger Gorillaz narrative, or 2020 in general has taught us anything, it’s that hope is what’s gonna get us through this.

e: you guys are so cool and creative, all the elaboration and alternate takes beneath this comment and all the support is so great. the gorillaz fanbase is the BEST
Great analysis!!
@@kevincmejia thanks!
Well said!
I really appreciate you summarizing all the lore its really long and pretty complicated..... also I just love this band
I'm not usually one to hold a grudge. I love seeing redemption arcs in characters when they've done something awful and are trying to repent. However, after this many awful choices, I'm starting to think Murdoc should've just died in the wave of shit when he was escaping prison like we all thought.
2010: Escape to Plastic Beach.
2020: Destroy to Plastic Beach.
they basically did both
XD
Wkww
:(((

It melts my heart knowing the 2 most replayed parts are when cyborg noodle are on screen and 2-D saving Murdoc. I love the Gorillaz fanbase.

Leee John in 2020: Welcome to the Death of the Plastic Beach
Im the #666 like, lol
Gorillaz fans: Yeeeeees, Plastic Beach is back
Damon: *Let's fckng destroy it, Leee*
I think that was Jamie's idea, because he's the animator and director of the videos. Damon just does the music
I loved it. It really represents Gorillaz seperating themselves from their past trauma. It may have been pretty but, it was a literal prison made of garbage with a coat of paint. Nice it went out with a bang.
😥🤧😭
Isn't that a good thing though? I mean I'm a little rusty on my Gorillaz lore but... the plastic beach is bad, isn't it?
@@nicholashayes5773 yeah, pretty sure it was basically murdoc's song creation sweatshop with all the collaborators stuck there with him and the band. Still though, ignoring that, it seems like a pretty cool place to live
That shot of Cyborg Noodle just glaring up at the gang as she just descends further into the depths of the ocean, gives me chills every time I see it. Especially with her backstory and all she's witnessed till that point.
2D reaching out to Murdoc is the most important symbol in all of Gorillaz, I think. The whole song machine phase was about Murdoc losing control, not feeling needed anymore, falling into depression. In Désolé, he was crying on the couch, at the end of The pink phantom, he showed up, seeming desperate for attention.
In the past, it was the opposite. Murdoc had all the power, controlling and abusing 2D. It all changed in Humanz, when 2D got free of Murdocs control, showing in his white eyes.
All of that combining, it is so powerful seeing 2D reaching out for Murdoc, showing he cares about him, despite everything Murdoc has done to him. He showed Murdoc doesn't need to worry, he is still an important part of the group and is not left behind.
Well said
It also seemed that Murdoc pulled everyone up onto the top of the lighthouse saving everyone, including 2D, pretty cute I thought
Ive been noticing all this too and thought it was quite a transition for Murdoc

You don't know the capabilities of the old school music bands and players.
The brief scene of Cyborg Noodle awake and sinking gives me chills everytime. I know we may not, but I hope we see her again.
After rewatching this I can tell Murdoc is actually a pretty selfless dude. Not only does he help all of the band members get on top of the lighthouse, but he let's all of them escape first. An honorable moment from the dude.
i think he was saving himself first and ended up at the back of the line
He was too traumatized to realize what he was doing
Considering there's no longer a purpose for him being an absolute piece of crap, character development ain't bad
@@sarinabeech8326 if he wanted to save himself first, he would have pushed the others away.
I think after The Now Now, Murdoc vowed to change for the better after almost dying in a failed prison escape
The face 2D makes when he brings Murdoc through the portal is the most 2D thing I've ever seen
*:P*
2D is a good Friend
it’s so wholesome
He's cute af.
Everything else in Song Machine: *absolute vibing*
The Lost Chord: *Ptsd intensifies*
Low key this is probably my favorite Gorillaz music video of all time. It acts as a conclusion for plot points in Plastic Beach that were never resolved all these years later, as well as redeeming Murdoc and showing that he has been forgiven and accepted by the rest of the band with 2-D coming back for him at the end
Yeah... I doubt Russel will ever accept him, lol.
Pink phantom is definitely up there
Everyone's talking about 2D and Murdoc but- HOW IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT RUSS MAKING SURE NOODLE GETS THROUGH THE PORTAL! He's Noodle's best adoptive dad.
Murdoc talking about Desole: I wasn't crying, my tear ducts dried up years ago

I love how Murdoc pulled up 2D. He didn't have to, after all they've been through they still have eachothers back. Just like 2D didn't have to go back for Murdoc, but he did. I love watching these two grow. Also I don't think Murdoc was expecting anyone to go back for him. Like in Désolé, he thought he had been forgotten. The look on his face and his grip on 2D's hand warms my heart.
I actually like how 2D also helped Murdoc through the portal because Murdoc has changed for the better since phase 4 and the Now Now after regretting that he had done for the last 3 phases and 2D forgiving him is just obvious all because of that
Character development.
The panic after it closed was there and i honestly felt so baaaaaadddddddddd. Then 2D came back and it warmed my heart
Murdoc pulled everyone up.
@@etereapresencia9861 exactly
The radioactive water is not only strong enough to make Russel giant, but to create a humanoid sea monster that sings and shoots laser beams from its eyes.
that final moment of 2D going back to save murdoc is not only a great moment, but it symbolizes the themes of the music video really well. instead of festering on the trauma and feelings of the past and letting murdoc die alone and helpless (like he debatably may deserve for everything he’s done), 2D forgives and moves past it all. he doesn’t let those past emotions cloud his judgement or keep him “chained” down, and he goes back to save murdoc. it’s really powerful!
for me i wouldnt say that 2d fully forgives mudz tho because all the shit he has been through. but yeah i honestly agree
@@pheenixgryphon7857 yeah. probably because 2d didnt want to get abused more for defending himself. actually, 2d couldve defend himself easily cuz he is like 80 ft tall and murdoc is like 2 ft compared to each other (if you think about it). but either way mudz was a jackass to 2d but hopefully we get more of a healthy relationship between the two and hopefully they can fix their friendship
I feel like this song definitely talks about feelings of the past, not only because of that moment, but also because of the skeletons on the beach. I'm not completely familiar with Gorillaz lore but what if that's them because they left a part of themselves on the plastic beach. Hence why they're sad, because they're reminded of what they once were. Fits in nicely with the theme of Feel Good Inc, as it was big music who forced them to be who they are
It's been better ever since Murdoc came back after his time in jail. Because the bad guy from power puff girls (I don't remember his name) was an even bigger bully. I've noticed the eyes of 2D aren't always black anymore, he's not taunted anymore by Murdoc. They actually became friends and I think he forgave Murdoc, as it shows here because he came back for him. Also, in Desolé, 2D left Murdoc, this might be some sort of repayment for that as well. I really think they've grown to become great friends
There’s no debate. Murdoc would’ve deserved to be alone after everything he’s done. But I’m glad 2D went back for him. Maybe that can improve their relationship.
Damon: How much references you will put in the video?
Jamie: yes
Jamie’s a mad man with this video, it’s awesome
Yare yare
At this point we definitely need a gorillaz movie.
I think there is gonna be one in netflix
What happened whit cyber noodle:(
Yes please
one is coming soon
@@valentinoodiana8765 she sank to the bottom of the ocean, but I don't think she's dead, we saw her eyes open
i don’t know if anyone noticed, but towards the end when everyone is trying to get to the top of the lighthouse, you can see murdoc desperately trying to pull everyone up, only to seemingly get left behind in the end. i thought it was a very interesting detail that got slightly overshadowed by 2D coming back to rescue him. i suppose no good deed goes unpunished? im not good at analyzing stuff LOL
yeah i spotted that too, you can see 2d looks like hes smiling at murdoc for doing it too
I didn’t notice it until you pointed it out, that’s really cool!
Bruh, lo del castigo por "ser bondadoso" no. Más bien es karma por lo que hizo en Plastic Beach
It's character development. This was basically all four of them confronting their past (2D's fear of whales, Noodle's mask that used to hide her bruises from escaping hell, and Russell turning into a giant mutant after a psychotic episode when Del was exorcised from him) but focuses on Murdoc as Plastic Beach was mainly about him.
Around Phase 3, Murdoc abandoned his search for Noodle and opted to create a cyborg clone of her to be his bodyguard and new guitarist, replaced Russ with a drum machine, kidnapped and held 2D captive the entire time.
Murdoc helping all of them get up the top of the light house and going last shows how much he's changed and 2D being the one to save him in the end prolly means he's forgiven Murdoc for treating him horribly for years.

@@knightwolf1363 they even got Gorillaz commenting on his vid!
In many ways, I feel like this was Gorillaz trying to finally finish the plastic beach storyline, as it takes a lot of concepts from the cancelled Rhinestone Eyes video. The destruction of the mansion, Noodle coming out of giant Russel's mouth, and cyborg Noodle's destruction. Not to mention Murdoc coming to terms with the fact that he was the real monster in that part of his life
No idea why anyone thinks cyborg Noodle was destroyed. The laser nearly blasted over the whole band and they were completely fine. Cyborg Noodle dropped down the ocean in a submarine, not even touched by the laser. There's really no reason to think anything other than the island was destroyed.

Honestly, this was incredibly shooting. The nostalgia of being back in plastic beach and seeing it get destroyed was so damn sad but at the same time i'm glad it happened. Plastic beach is my favourite album, not just from gorillaz, in general, plastic beach is my favorite album and it's kind of a part of me, so seeing that again was awesome. Seeing it getting destroyed is like closing a memory, and it means a lot to the lore, it would mean something like finally closing a dark age and starting again, with forgiveness. The fact that 2D saved Murdoc just makes me believe it even more.

@@abrilvallejoslarramendy694 yes
Man, it feels like every member has had an arc except for Russel. Noodle learned her past and led phase two, 2D gained confidence and led phase four, and Murdoc realized how shitty he's been and has vowed to be better. Hope they work on Russel next phase!
Russell did have an arc of sorts. He got over Del and his past in the streets during Phase One.
@@mmgmagic Yeah Russ had been possessed twice and even saw the grim reaper, then he was exercised and got a little better. But then after he swallowed toxic waste and became HUGE the Japanese took him in as a strange sort of King Kong attraction.

Well they've known each other the longest and despite how they met they are definitely really good friends.
It's rare seen Murdoc smiling... specially a not "evil and planning something smile".
I like how all the characters have ptsd when they first arrive, murdoc and the boogeyman, 2d and the whale, noodle and her ship getting sunken because of murdocs deal, and russ who got big and basically had to live in the ocean for about a year, they all had phobias and different fears then at the end, they all felt relief from plastic Beach being destroyed, all the different subs the other artist took to get to plastic Beach, and the kong studio getting destroyed, good memories finally resting in peace, this was a sad episode, 2ds abuser finally changes heart in the now now when he was in prison and 2d forgives him for all the pain murdoc put him in for the past 20 years or so, this was a good episode 🥲

I like this analysis.
Acting like murdoc changed though is... Let's say a bit optimistic. What was the song machine song that was released after desole'?

1:21 Holy crap, that's Daley's corpse. You can see the glasses and patch he had on in the Doncamatic video. I guess he didn't make it to Plastic Beach until after it was abandoned, and then just... stayed there and died? The lore runs *deep* in this video.
I mean, Plastic Beach was attacked by Black Cloud, remember? He could have bit a bullet there.
If you remember in the original music video 2-D was trying to talk to him trying to tell him that the album is finished and that he doesn't need to come but his sub is damaged so I think it broke down when he landed there and bit the dust
Yea when I heard that it was goin to be ON plastic beach i knew there would be some sort of appearance of him

I haven’t seen all of Gorillaz music videos yet but this is the first time I’ve seen Murdock cry I actually cried too
That hurt to see, to know he actually had some sort of feeling for Cyborg Noodle, fuck that hurt. And then to see her sink to the bottom of the ocean and look up at them, FUCK. That hurt too… guess she wasn’t as robotic as some might have first thought and that hurts to think of
it's pretty cool how this whole song machine is almost just about murdoc having a mental breakdown,and doing weird stuff,but at the end,they still a band
It literally is, I didn't even think about it like that 😭
The only thing I noticed was that the animation for a lot of the music videos are hella limited. Almost all the characters just do a loop or a still frame. Hopefully there will be a fully realized animated music video soon. Even this video the band was mostly still frames
Yeah it does seem to be centered around that. Looking at him in all these videos I kinda feel bad for him even if he is to blame for a lot of what has happened.
Theory: cyborg noodle murdered the doncamatic guy when he finally got to the beach so that she could take his submarine but since she couldn’t get it to work (the submarine is powered by singing) she ended up dying trying to fix it, which is why she is inside it
Wierd because she was suppose to have survived Plastic Beach as mentioned in the Book of Murdoc as well as in an interview Murdoc & 2D did while promoting Humanz after the drop album dropped that year.

Notice at 3:41, Murdoc is very uncharacteristically helping his bandmates climb the sinking lightower. First Noodle, then Russel with some help from below, and finally 2D.
There's signs he might have deserved that hand at the end after all.
He 100% did. He may be mean and sometimes even cruel to his friends. But deep down, he loves them. And at the end of the day, doesn't want them to be harmed or hurt.
Man cried at cyber Noodles corpse
@@xx_scotty_21_xx90 even tho he beat the fuck out of 2D lmao
To tell the truth, I wasn't fond of Murdoc, given that he treats 2D like garbage and that he tries to act like a big shot with only his own interests at heart, but over the course of the Song Machine series he somewhat evolved from an antagonist to antihero, but this video makes Murdoc actually sympathetic for once. I mean, I never seen him cry, ever. And near the end of the video when he helped the others get to the portal and was almost left behind then 2D rescues him at the last minute, I think this is definitive proof that Murdoc is beginning to grow as a person and not just a cynical narcissist.
@@stephanieevjen my man murdoc going through an empathy arc
I think we can all agree that plastic beach was a very traumatic time for the gorillaz, and the fact they go back to watch all that burn to the ground and kind of re-live it again makes them grow closer.

2d for real just said "So anyways, I start singing"
Murdoc was so shitty to 2D during Plastic Beach and he would’ve sunk here finally, but 2D came back to save him.
I’M NOT CRYING, YOU’RE CRYING
Not even just 2D. He kidnapped Russel and basically made him be the drummer, he had Noodle be bait in some stupid plot with his old guitarist that left her alone for years leading up to Plastic Beach’s events, creating Cyborg Noodle and not being responsible for all the terrible shit that she went through, now being stuck in the dark trenches of the sea, and he’s always been a cock to 2D, even in this album (Aires and Friday 13th.) by all accounts, Murdoc deserved to die with Plastic Beach and be reborn as a slug.
That’s why it’s so beautiful that 2D is the one to save him. He was his first victim but at the end of the day, Murdoc is still his family, Gorillaz’s family, and he wasn’t gonna let this horrible place be his tomb. In the shot of them grabbing hands, you can see just from how tight they hold each other how much they really do care for each other. Murdoc even helped the 3 get to the portal first instead of just hoping through it himself. The character development is simply beautiful.
the implication that cyborg noodle is still alive is disturbing
She's been there all this time still alive and alone. That hurts 🥺
@@trinny_booAnd will be for a looong time
One important thing to note: Murdoc abused 2D for his entire life and 2D still went back to save him
@Tessa 65 Yep. Not saying it was a good thing he went back for him just showing that abuse sometimes means you end up having an odd love for the person who abuses you
I had to
That show's how much of a golden heart 2D is. It's not Stockholm syndrome since 2D is stepping up to himself lately, but rather an act of forgiveness.
@@Kokorocodon yeah, now at least
Kokorocodon Murdoc has been trying to be better to 2D since the now now too (although sometimes he has lapses like in ares)
2-D going back for Murdoc feels like their whole character arc is complete and I LOVE it. And he was only almost left because he helped them ALL up and into the portal. moved my cold dead heart, what a great moment.
That reminds me of the movie “this is the end”. Self sacrifice is the only way to survive but if you do it to survive, it’s not a sacrifice.
Everyone loved that moment where 2-D went back for him, even after all the screwed up stuff that Murdoc did to him; I feel like he will learn to appreciate 2-D for that. Though I'm more so interested in how this will be later explored when Season 2 comes around, it might be unlikely since it will mostly focus on the music, but only because I think it would be cool to see how Murdoc's character can develop further. I think it's just something that many of the fans that are interested in the lore of Gorillaz would want to see. However, in this moment between the two characters shows potential for a full Murdoc redemption arc, and for me that's a win.
wasnt there an interview where it was implied that 2-D has stockholm syndrome?
sorry to burst your bubble but im pretty sure that aint wholesome.
@@fairypebble5938 yep I read that too (or watched it? i forget). So...pretending these are real people..lol. Stockholm syndrome and 2Ds abusive past with him is certainly not wholesome. What IS wholesome (to me) is people changing for the better, redemption , and forgiveness. Especially to those not deserving. I'm not saying Murdoc has earned or deserves this chance, but their relationship has significantly changed, even before this video, in two major ways. 1. Murdoc left the band and 2D realized how happy he was without him. This revelation was significant enough that I don't think its temporary (his eyes being permanently white now sort of imply this). They made an entire album without him and 2D flourished. he even wrote a song about it (humility) 2. Murdoc now realizes he is not irreplaceable and that his behavior can leave him alienated from the band. He knows that they can happily have success without him.
This has changed their dynamic enormously. 2D is no longer a defenseless punching bag and Murdoc now faces consequences for his actions.
To me, the fact that Murdoc is trying, and that 2D is a pure enough person that he can give him another chance is complicated for sure, but its also very wholesome.
thank you for listening to my ted talk.

He was also the one to help everyone up too.
@@Vi-Vi-Kitty thiiisss, other phases Murdoc would left them and just save himself.
when the lighthouse began to sink, Murdoc pulled each of them to its top, after which they were able to escape. this can be interpreted as the fact that Murdoc originally created their group and helped bands members to realize themselves and the fact that 2D returned for him and took him with, suggests that they didn't forget this and even after all terrible things that he did to them, they forgived him. It warms my heart.
