I'm reading about this song in Rise of the Ogre while listening, and it says you can hear cicadas in the background when 2D is singing bc they recorded it outside in the middle of the night. I love how they have an explanation on how they got every little noise into every song.
I actually agree with this statement, it's a really amazing song and has two of some of the most prominent themes from the self-titled album, trip-hop and dub. Probably could have replaced Rock the House as a single, that was certainly somewhat of a weird choice for a single. Great song, but Sound Check would have been more appropriate. It's just an amazing song and really represents the self-titled album perfectly. Plus, a music video for this song would have been amazing.
@QsfProductions Game Machinimas And More! The one made by the same guy who did the Latin Simone video? Saw it, it's not a bad one. But I feel like an official music video would have really accompanied the song perfectly.
That's some real shit! Oddly enough I listened to this album a bunch when I was deep in my meth addiction lol maybe my brain was trying to tell me something
this is one of the Gorillaz songs that the first time you end up skipping, but then, you listen it, and congratulations. now you are addicted to this song! edit: i wrote this all the way back when my english was hella trash, so i just adjusted it a little :p
And now every time I hear PAC-MAN, I just can't fit his singing like of Damon's looks, similar to how your saying it, except kind of the other way around, I get what your saying 100%, but does mine make any sense lol O_o
I imagine 2D's story in this one. 2D, with normal eyes, going to work at a music store. Then the scratchy rapping part is Murdoc who crashed his car into the store, hitting 2D and causing him to slip into a coma. Then that middle gravity part is 2D floating while in his coma unaware of time passing, then he starts singing and coming around only to find out that Murdoc caused a second crash that woke him up. 2D finally opens his eyes and they are both black. Wow! Thanks for so many likes everyone!
That would actually have been a good music video idea if the song was ever made to a single. There are lots of interpretations over the song's meaning, but yours seems like a good interpretation.
This song is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. Not even kidding. It's as though someone took all the emotions of being passionately in love but still sort of conflicted, and made them into a song.
@van mannison songs, even though they can be written with an intended story or inspiration behind it, it's more about what it means to YOU that makes it enjoyable.

That’s a powerful song and a masterpiece. It’s a fight between your “good” self (represented by 2D’s falsetto) and “bad” self (normal 2D’s voice) inside your head, you're trapped in yourself. The good self feels the “weight” and bad influence of the bad self “Gravity on me, never let me down gently” and makes him have low self-esteem and doubts “I don’t know, love is breaking”. - Meanwhile, the bad self wants to convince the good self that he is not making things worse “I don’t pull me down, on you”, but the fight between both selves continues accompanied by a violin, until the track ends with “Gravity...” with the last words being “I don’t know, love-love-love…” and then, silence. That’s the saddest part. You don’t know who wins the fight inside your head in the end.
My top (if someone wants to read it): 5.-El Manana 4.-Rhinestone Eyes 3.-Kids With Guns 2.-Sound Check 1.-Every Planet We Reach is Dead *-Bonus-* The Apprentice :^)
The only thing in this world that doesn't leave you or lets you go is gravity, everything else is just here for a while, good or bad. Maybe this is my interpretation since I hear the beat going "please do not fucking leave me" ...
Wow...ouch. All the other interpretations of that line are...hilarious, but inappropriate. ("I've got no ****** bacon!") Your interpretation, on the other hand, is actually very deep.
Honestly, this song could have many interpretations of it's supposed to mean, but I've decided to stop pondering over what it means and just enjoying the song for what it is. Edit: In Rise of the Ogre, 2D says that he was sitting on a roof in Jamaica at night when he devised this song. He said he was just thinking about the universe really, perhaps that's the official explanation for this song? It does have that sort of vibe, at least to me. I think it's one of the few non unsettling songs from the self-titled though, there's some pretty unsettling songs such as Man Research, Double Bass, or New Genius though. I personally view it as more of a relaxing song, one that gets away from the craziness and unsettling feeling that's prominent in quite a few of the songs featured on the album.

I skipped this song everytime for about a year or 2 after I bought the CD in 2001-2002. Then, every so often, I would let it play it every once in awhile. After 5 years or so, I played it almost as much as the other songs on the album. By year 10, it was even with other songs. But for some reason tonight in 2019...15 some odd years later, this song just came into my head as I face some of the biggest trials and tribulations of my life in the next few weeks. I looked at the lyrics and read them to myself and listened to the song one more time and it all became clear.
It's like a progression of emotion. It starts with like a hopeful melancholy/sadness. Then its vigor/anger (?) but also content and happy. But when the cycle restarts with the strings amd beat, it's the same thing but wise and composed. Idk. Strange rant to read in the comments I know, but this piece of music has so much power to me. Edit: holy shit I was stoned
to me, this song represent someone at the end of a relation ship or in a depressive moment of his life. always behing cruch always being destroye, always fighting the voice in his head that tell him to give up in a way. I get that vibe from the fact that the song seems to be into a constant conflict. their is the soft accoustic guitard that get slowly replace by the heavy beat, but it constantly try to fight. the simple beat is an allusion actually. When Damon sing, you can here the bugs surronding him, representing his contact with nature, the real world. then his emotions take him to another darker place, a place cold and harsh, the universe, with an indistinct voice and a mechanical beat. then for the lyrics, well, we could interpret them in several ways, but basicly i think the gravity his talking about is a love interest that he is losing. but if you lose gravity, what keep you in this world? nothing. so he fight to stay with the gravity, even if that mean to continue to be crushed on a day by day base. Obviously, this is all only just one of multiple interpretation we could get from this song. I would like to know what other people think the lyrics and song represent?
So.. I know no one will read this, but I just felt like talking about the way I personally deciphered the song "Sound Check" by Gorillaz... So.. It starts out real soft and kinda quiet.. A chill smooth beat and acoustic chords.. The about 40 seconds in, the heavy bass drops and it turns.... Hiphop-ish? I'm not sure how to describe it, but it makes me think of the soft part being through the point of view of a forest sprite of fairy or spirit.. The the bass symbolizes the modernization of a city suddenly being built from the forest.. It the alternates back to a soft beat, with a bit of a strong snare beat, meaning the spirit, or whatever, is in a park in the city, reminded of their old home.. The heavy snare equalling trash or vandalism or other man made stuff (benches and streetlights) it alternates back to hiphopish... Then fades off back to the spirit.. He sounds very dismayed and sad.. Then it turns to a slight orchestral moment overlain on the original beat.. To me, it sounds dramatic, like the spirit is rebelling.. The original beat, orchestral overlay, and the hiphopish beat all are overlapping, symbolizing that the spirit battles the city to destroy it and return the forest.. Eventually fades to the beat from the beginning, the spirits song.. I believe that the spirit drove the city folk away, and tore down the city bringing back their forest home... Sorry I made you read all that..
This is their best selling album the Self Titled. This is still selling now on ITunes. This is an animated band and that’s the unique selling point. This band is as big as anime
man this album opened me up to so much. I credit the gorillaz for getting me to venture out into all kinds of genres, and not judge music based on genres. I haven't listened to this album in a while, but I am now. gravity, tomorrow comes today, re hash, punk, m1a1, etc etc. so good. imo g1 gorillaz deserves more appreciation, cause g sides was great too
My first well listened to CD was Gorillaz. I would just lay on my floor when I was 10 and listen to this CD. When I listen to this as a young adult (23) it's like returning to something that is innately a part of me. I #GorillazFanForLife
Same here for me, a family friend of mine accidentally left it in my stereo system after showing me a couple songs and from then on i religiously listened to it, i think i was about 7 years old. It has such a particular sound and atmosphere to it, extremely nostalgic for me as well! 😁
my favorite Gorillaz track. This is one of those albums that every punk rocker own, and it is way in the back of the box behind the Oi comps, hanging out with Vulgar Display Of Power and the Tod Rudgren era NY Dolls Album.
Why aren't they in the rock n roll hall of fame??? They're a one of a kind and have been going for 23 (goat number, by the way) years and they have touched so many hearts and truly stand out like no others but musically and visually. Truly Gorillaz is iconic 2 d is God is a banger so listen to that one next if you like this song.
20 years since I was listening to this regularly, it's like finding and reconnecting with an old love... Very positive, yet such a deep dark song. I am in love again x

I'm not native speaker in English. Please, help me to get how Jessie Daniels pronounce "pla-ace" in "I'm gonna rock this pla-ace"? I can only hear "grav-ty" or something like that.
i feel like phase 1 is really underappreciated. its got hiphop and rock, and modern gorillaz wouldnt exist without these bangers. we should try to get phase 1 more love!
Who ever dislikes this without having a clue who this band are, this is an animated visual band. Their music has its own style and brings you to their world. The singer is Damon Albarn from lead singer of Blur and the artist who does the art work for the Gorillaz is the creator of the Tank Girl comic. Its a collaboration between these two guys. It very creative and experimental, they can make whatever music they want and do what ever they want with this animated visual band. They aren't under control of anyone. This is why this album has sold over 10 million copies worldwide and is on the Guiness Book Of World Records as the most successful animated visual band! This album is highly recommended and I suggest picking it up, if you see it around. You won't be disappointed, I'd also recommend checking out their music videos. They have storylines to them and are very well produced
I'm guilty...this is straight up nostalgia for me..I used to try and draw em up in my old art book..the tagging days man oh man...the digital won't let us go lol
+Sky Vettel lol mine haven't either :( but hey practice makes perfect right, get back to it and see what u can do?? this whole album just made my morning tho, its 8:17 I've been awake since 7 listening to this album and I promise I went threw every emotion. I cried I laughed I got happy sad, so on n so forth...this album defines me, and going back to it at 24yrs old is scary.....tomorrow comes today is still my all time fav tho..
+Sky Vettel it def was. I needed a dose of nostalgia. I wish I remembered this album last night I'm awake early cuz I took molly last night and saw batman vs superman lol. so music is very important to me right now.....vibez wit meh :)
I first heard Gorrilaz "Feel Good Inc" a long time ago when I was very young. I didn't pay much attention to it. Then, a year ago or so, I found and listened to Feel Good Inc. I liked it. Then Clint Eastwood. Liked it. Then Pac-Man. And they looked different. So I searched the fandom. Turns out there's a lot of songs. So after a while, we come to today, July 12 2021. I decided to actually listen to Tranz for once, since I was considering making some sort of thing on it. I liked it. Then I found this masterpiece with someone storyboarding it. And now I like it.
I'll never forget how listening to this song made me feel when I was younger. It hits harder as an adult, the more time passed the more scars appeared from everything I've experienced, and this song holds a new meaning for me though for the same emotion.
Does anyone know which member of Gorillaz wrote the lyrics to this song? I hope 2d cause I think it gives a really interesting view of how he views the world. He's constantly paranoid and feels that everything is out to get him that even gravity scares him; it's always violently pulling on him and it never does so gently.
(sighs) Yes, I know Damon Albarn actually wrote the lyrics, but I mean in the Gorillaz cannon. My question got answered anyways, I found a photo somewhere saying the lyrics were by both 2d and Murdoc.
+Shib00yah You might be thinking of Jamie Hewlett, who co-created the band with Damon Albarn. He isn't a musician though, he's a comic book artist and the story board artist for the music videos.
My brotha bought this album when it came out. I must have been around 7 yrs old. Didn´t understand a word they spoke..But dem feels said it all. Asante sana!
This song and this album takes me back. I was 17. Got this album and a Nintendo GameCube for Christmas or my birthday or both. Just had this cd on repeat playing Luigi’s Mansion all day. Love it. Always will.
I dont find it depressing. Chances are you were or are depressed and you link the sound to your insecurities lol. If you're happy and hear this it's a pump up mix with deep bass . But to each their own
This song just jumped into my head just now. Great jam, used to listen to this album a lot when it first released. My buddy had an old school Bonneville, we'd cruise through town playing this and every time there was a crowd outside the local ice cream shop, he'd throw the car in neutral, turn off the ignition and then turn the key to start the car back up before shifting back into drive. It was hilarious to see peoples heads turn, just looks of, 'wtf just happened??' We were never sure if it was bad for the car but nothing ever happened. To be young and dumb. Good times.
This song never gets old no matter how many times I listen to it. I definitely think it's my favorite Gorillaz song, everything about it from the bass drop, to the drums, to 2D's singing, and so on make it fucking amazing. Both from the self-titled album and out of everything Gorillaz has made.
Although I like all of their albums, got to say that the self-titled album is my favorite as it's got a lot of amazing songs on it such as this one. Plus, all of the songs on it are superb, they all are great in their own way.
[Intro: 2D] Gravity-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay on me Never let me down gently Gravity-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay with me Never let me go no, no Gravity-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay [Interlude: scratches] I don't know, love is breaking I don't know love-love-love-love I don't know, love is breaking I don't know, love is breaking I don't know, love is breaking I don't know love-love-love-love [Chorus: 2D] I don't pull me down I don't pull me down on me I don't pull me down I don't pull me down on you I don't pull me down I don't pull me down on me I don't pull me down I don't pull me down on you [Interlude: scratches] I don't know, love is breaking I don't know, love is breaking I don't know, love is breaking I don't know love-love-love-love [Bridge: 2D] Gravity-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay on me Never let me down gently Gravity-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay with me Never let me go no, no Gravity-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay on me Never let me down gently Gravity-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay with me Never let me go no, no Gravity-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay on me Never let me down gently Gravity-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay with me Never let me go no, no Gravity [Chorus: 2D] I don't pull me down I don't pull me down on me I don't pull me down I don't pull me down on you I don't pull me down I don't pull me down on me I don't pull me down I don't pull me down on you [Outro: scratches] I don't know, love is breaking I don't know, love is breaking I don't know, love is breaking I don't know love-love-love-love
I used to be super hyper fixated on gorillaz and I was feeling nostalgic so I went back to listen to all my old favorites and man lemme tell you that BEAT MAN
I love how early 2000's this song is. You just could not mistake this song for any other time period.
Phase 1 has many falsetto parts (Gravity, Starshine) that fall flat in later albums or missing completely... sadly. I love his falsettos.
This sounds more like mid or late 90s too me, specially if your familiar with producers like Dan the Automator, Madlib, DJ Shadow or Cut Chemist.
Phase 1 (S/T & G-Sides) had such a unique sound and art style, and it hasn't been replicated in any other albums. I miss it.
The best comment
It has the turn tables and washed out bass that sounds so 2000's but it really doesnt feel like it. a timeless classic
I'm reading about this song in Rise of the Ogre while listening, and it says you can hear cicadas in the background when 2D is singing bc they recorded it outside in the middle of the night. I love how they have an explanation on how they got every little noise into every song.
+Anna Wasson yeah, just shows how much love and care and consideration goes into every detail.

I think every gorillaz fan goes through the standard singles and big hits and then gets on to this shit. Welcome, we are glad you have made it so far.
Jack Holy shit this is so true
It's been an awesome ride.
about right, even if some of the other fans are getting a little elitist all the way down here.

been one hell of a journey.
So underrated. Why couldn't this have been a single?
+Super Smurf Brother whole album...
Because the ones who know more songs by them aside from the singles are The Cool Kids and this song is way too dope to be mainstream. 😊
I actually agree with this statement, it's a really amazing song and has two of some of the most prominent themes from the self-titled album, trip-hop and dub. Probably could have replaced Rock the House as a single, that was certainly somewhat of a weird choice for a single. Great song, but Sound Check would have been more appropriate. It's just an amazing song and really represents the self-titled album perfectly. Plus, a music video for this song would have been amazing.
Stuart Pot There is a fan-made music video, but it's old and incomplete.
@QsfProductions Game Machinimas And More! The one made by the same guy who did the Latin Simone video? Saw it, it's not a bad one. But I feel like an official music video would have really accompanied the song perfectly.
As an ex-addict, let's just say this song personally helps remind me of one fundamental rule: what goes up, must come down.
I wish they would teach this simple yet absurdly true concept in rehab
Jamming to it as we speak 2022 I feel it is now classic if not timeless
Hope you doing good
Yep. I learned that the hard way too. That, and the higher you get the harder you fall.
That's some real shit! Oddly enough I listened to this album a bunch when I was deep in my meth addiction lol maybe my brain was trying to tell me something
this is one of the Gorillaz songs that the first time you end up skipping, but then, you listen it, and congratulations.
now you are addicted to this song!
edit: i wrote this all the way back when my english was hella trash, so i just adjusted it a little :p
True
yeah me too I can't wait for new album I first heard feel good inc then I was in love I usually like rock but they are my second fav band
Never skip a gorillaz song.
ur right
Same goes for empire ants
I CAN'T STOP LISTENING THIS IS THE ONLY SONG I HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO FOR THE PAST 48 HOURS HELP
you are ok, doctors orders, repeat several more times
call the police
Halp
AAAAAA
I will call 911
i feel like when Damon sings like this he sounds more like how 2D looks, if that makes any sense
yeah i see that
Yeh I get you
Yea i hear it
@Lisergic Lime Right i agree
And now every time I hear PAC-MAN, I just can't fit his singing like of Damon's looks, similar to how your saying it, except kind of the other way around, I get what your saying 100%, but does mine make any sense lol O_o
Low-key the best Gorillaz song.
Been my favorite from the second i heard it brotha. chill vibes bro
+Cheshire Vapor lol u sound like gamzee xD
Shakermaker That Liam in your profile photo.
Liam must have supported Damon during the time this album was released. He clapped when they won the Q award for Best Music Video
BoC and Gorillaz should colab
I imagine 2D's story in this one.
2D, with normal eyes, going to work at a music store. Then the scratchy rapping part is Murdoc who crashed his car into the store, hitting 2D and causing him to slip into a coma. Then that middle gravity part is 2D floating while in his coma unaware of time passing, then he starts singing and coming around only to find out that Murdoc caused a second crash that woke him up. 2D finally opens his eyes and they are both black.
Wow! Thanks for so many likes everyone!
That would actually have been a good music video idea if the song was ever made to a single. There are lots of interpretations over the song's meaning, but yours seems like a good interpretation.
DisneyMagicDreamer85 that's... actually a really good concept for the song, especially as it's the bass that really kicks in.
PLEASE DO THAT VIDEO
PLEASEEEE!!!
Play it backwards I heard murdoc’s car and like BOI! It’s sad
kind of brilliant!
almost 20 years onward, this track is still a GODSEND
Preach, brotha!
I got this shit on loop omg
Kual?
@cannon damn one year later and i’m literally listening to gorillaz rn as I’m typing this (also gravity is still fire)
@@hazyisdeadironic because murdoc is a satanist
This song is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. Not even kidding. It's as though someone took all the emotions of being passionately in love but still sort of conflicted, and made them into a song.
it sure does pluck the heart strings :)
I feel incredibly called out right now lol
You are severely depressed I’m guessing
@van mannison songs, even though they can be written with an intended story or inspiration behind it, it's more about what it means to YOU that makes it enjoyable.

* makes Gorillaz playlist *
* stops and replays this song over 10 times *
*Extra* useful playlist
So useful it's not even *funny*
This song is powerful, funky, melancholic, dizzy and unusual at the same time...Great work!
Or you know.... it's a sound check jam session..
@@jean-lucmagdaluyo3579 It's what Gorillaz sound check s sound like
you never listened funky music before
@makosguba5 há 7 anos is time to get back here to listen this piece of art
That’s a powerful song and a masterpiece. It’s a fight between your “good” self (represented by 2D’s falsetto) and “bad” self (normal 2D’s voice) inside your head, you're trapped in yourself. The good self feels the “weight” and bad influence of the bad self “Gravity on me, never let me down gently” and makes him have low self-esteem and doubts “I don’t know, love is breaking”.
-
Meanwhile, the bad self wants to convince the good self that he is not making things worse “I don’t pull me down, on you”, but the fight between both selves continues accompanied by a violin, until the track ends with “Gravity...” with the last words being “I don’t know, love-love-love…” and then, silence. That’s the saddest part. You don’t know who wins the fight inside your head in the end.
I never thought about it like that.. What a beautiful perspective. Thank you.
Don’t wanna be that guy but the lyrics are actually “I’ve got no luck at winning”.
@@dottedottedotte Honestly I think there are no official lyrics, so we can't be sure.
@@tahu9759 it’s a sample.
@@dottedottedotte didn't know that! Can you share a link with the sample?
I looked up the lyrics, and the background is "I don't know, love is breaking". If you listen closely, you can hear it perfectly.
Oh... all this time I thought it was "I'm just gonna rock this riggin'".
Sounds bit more like “I dont know but love is breaking” to me
i thought its I just found a fucking twinkie

I always heard it as, "I've got no luck at winning".

I'm so glad we invented gravity so that this song could exist.
Fr
I lose my mind over this song.
The way they use their voices in this song is so fucking beautiful and interesting.
UUuuuugh why is this band so interesting.
ATEAMT you know then the Gorillaz universe, it’s just 2D singing, right?
The only thing in this world that doesn't leave you or lets you go is gravity, everything else is just here for a while, good or bad. Maybe this is my interpretation since I hear the beat going "please do not fucking leave me" ...
Wow...ouch. All the other interpretations of that line are...hilarious, but inappropriate. ("I've got no ****** bacon!") Your interpretation, on the other hand, is actually very deep.
The Gorillaz Wiki stated that it says "I've got no luck at winning."
i thought it was "i don't know love is breaking"?
Ludydobry it's "I've got no luck at winning"
Honestly, this song could have many interpretations of it's supposed to mean, but I've decided to stop pondering over what it means and just enjoying the song for what it is. Edit: In Rise of the Ogre, 2D says that he was sitting on a roof in Jamaica at night when he devised this song. He said he was just thinking about the universe really, perhaps that's the official explanation for this song? It does have that sort of vibe, at least to me. I think it's one of the few non unsettling songs from the self-titled though, there's some pretty unsettling songs such as Man Research, Double Bass, or New Genius though. I personally view it as more of a relaxing song, one that gets away from the craziness and unsettling feeling that's prominent in quite a few of the songs featured on the album.
"Sound Check (Gravity)" is still fire in 2020! 🔥
TRUEEEEE!!
@@gumtm I'm not going to lie. Your reply caught me off guard! 😆
Hell yeah!
Agreed
yessss it definently is my dad has the cd as an album and has a really good stereo that make this sound really good
"I found a fucking twinkie"
Oh hello grey text knight.
Now look what the rock is cooking
Karkat Vantas aw hell naw fuck this waiting
I hear "Love is breaking/waiting" I know its pretty corny but I dunno, sounds Gorillaz-ish

This song should have been in that Gravity movie. It would fit so well, wouldn't it? As soon as I saw the trailer for that movie, I thought of this.
I love that scratching

I skipped this song everytime for about a year or 2 after I bought the CD in 2001-2002. Then, every so often, I would let it play it every once in awhile. After 5 years or so, I played it almost as much as the other songs on the album. By year 10, it was even with other songs. But for some reason tonight in 2019...15 some odd years later, this song just came into my head as I face some of the biggest trials and tribulations of my life in the next few weeks. I looked at the lyrics and read them to myself and listened to the song one more time and it all became clear.
same.
It's like a progression of emotion. It starts with like a hopeful melancholy/sadness. Then its vigor/anger (?) but also content and happy. But when the cycle restarts with the strings amd beat, it's the same thing but wise and composed. Idk. Strange rant to read in the comments I know, but this piece of music has so much power to me. Edit: holy shit I was stoned
gorillaz makes depression enjoyable
You know right?
Flipside Johnny Yeah
Flipside Johnny ikr. i simply love it
Flipside Johnny agreed
*_I AGREE._*
to me, this song represent someone at the end of a relation ship or in a depressive moment of his life. always behing cruch always being destroye, always fighting the voice in his head that tell him to give up in a way. I get that vibe from the fact that the song seems to be into a constant conflict. their is the soft accoustic guitard that get slowly replace by the heavy beat, but it constantly try to fight. the simple beat is an allusion actually. When Damon sing, you can here the bugs surronding him, representing his contact with nature, the real world. then his emotions take him to another darker place, a place cold and harsh, the universe, with an indistinct voice and a mechanical beat. then for the lyrics, well, we could interpret them in several ways, but basicly i think the gravity his talking about is a love interest that he is losing. but if you lose gravity, what keep you in this world? nothing. so he fight to stay with the gravity, even if that mean to continue to be crushed on a day by day base. Obviously, this is all only just one of multiple interpretation we could get from this song. I would like to know what other people think the lyrics and song represent?
Oranda Power horrible perspective

Love your perspective on this song
@@ohhflamezy3963 horrible comment 👊🏾
bro this is probably one of their best songs ngl
i agree
So.. I know no one will read this, but I just felt like talking about the way I personally deciphered the song "Sound Check" by Gorillaz... So.. It starts out real soft and kinda quiet.. A chill smooth beat and acoustic chords.. The about 40 seconds in, the heavy bass drops and it turns.... Hiphop-ish? I'm not sure how to describe it, but it makes me think of the soft part being through the point of view of a forest sprite of fairy or spirit.. The the bass symbolizes the modernization of a city suddenly being built from the forest.. It the alternates back to a soft beat, with a bit of a strong snare beat, meaning the spirit, or whatever, is in a park in the city, reminded of their old home.. The heavy snare equalling trash or vandalism or other man made stuff (benches and streetlights) it alternates back to hiphopish... Then fades off back to the spirit.. He sounds very dismayed and sad.. Then it turns to a slight orchestral moment overlain on the original beat.. To me, it sounds dramatic, like the spirit is rebelling.. The original beat, orchestral overlay, and the hiphopish beat all are overlapping, symbolizing that the spirit battles the city to destroy it and return the forest.. Eventually fades to the beat from the beginning, the spirits song.. I believe that the spirit drove the city folk away, and tore down the city bringing back their forest home... Sorry I made you read all that..
troys Interesting way to look at the song.
troys that is very interesting and creative Take of this song
I love ur interpretation of this song
Interesting point of view, but quit of drugs hahaha. Good vibes!
troys it's a sound test, to test recoreding equipment
probably the most underrated song in history of underrated songs
Yes
its nr. 1
I miss the 2000's sounds in Gorillaz music. This shit just hit different.
Who wishes that Damon would play this song live again? The Demon Detour version is fucking fantastic, it's a shame it hasn't been played since then.
This is their best selling album the Self Titled. This is still selling now on ITunes. This is an animated band and that’s the unique selling point. This band is as big as anime
@@glx3846 demon days is their most successful

This album is helping me a lot to deal with stress at home and etc, I'm addicted to this song and Latin Simone! 😭🙏
its unhealthy how many GORILLAZ songs and videos i watch/listen 2 in 1 day
but i legit luv them
at the moment it's 3AM and i said fuck it and now i'm listening to every single Gorillaz song.
I'm gonna do that now.
Also, I love your profile pic.
man this album opened me up to so much. I credit the gorillaz for getting me to venture out into all kinds of genres, and not judge music based on genres. I haven't listened to this album in a while, but I am now. gravity, tomorrow comes today, re hash, punk, m1a1, etc etc. so good. imo g1 gorillaz deserves more appreciation, cause g sides was great too
Quality.
Gorillaz isn't a maymay
QUALITEH EH EH EH EH EHHHH
NEVEH LET ME DOWN
I've bee seeing you on a bunch of Gorillaz videos.
@bitterafterlaughter full HD 1000k xd
The fact that you still have a Gorillaz related pp six years later
Perfect for driving late at night, nice and chill
My first well listened to CD was Gorillaz. I would just lay on my floor when I was 10 and listen to this CD. When I listen to this as a young adult (23) it's like returning to something that is innately a part of me. I #GorillazFanForLife
Same here for me, a family friend of mine accidentally left it in my stereo system after showing me a couple songs and from then on i religiously listened to it, i think i was about 7 years old. It has such a particular sound and atmosphere to it, extremely nostalgic for me as well! 😁
my favorite Gorillaz track. This is one of those albums that every punk rocker own, and it is way in the back of the box behind the Oi comps, hanging out with Vulgar Display Of Power and the Tod Rudgren era NY Dolls Album.
Good luck with the new album
So happy for your return
Goodness almost there
So close now lol
day late but we made it
We are still humanz
Goodness THE BATH
Amaya Chan 😂
Why aren't they in the rock n roll hall of fame??? They're a one of a kind and have been going for 23 (goat number, by the way) years and they have touched so many hearts and truly stand out like no others but musically and visually. Truly Gorillaz is iconic 2 d is God is a banger so listen to that one next if you like this song.
20 years since I was listening to this regularly, it's like finding and reconnecting with an old love... Very positive, yet such a deep dark song. I am in love again x
I am absolutely in LOVE with this song!😍

I'm not native speaker in English. Please, help me to get how Jessie Daniels pronounce "pla-ace" in "I'm gonna rock this pla-ace"? I can only hear "grav-ty" or something like that.

soundcheck gravity is going to have one of the most plays of Gorillaz this year
Who ever dislikes this without having a clue who this band are, this is an animated visual band. Their music has its own style and brings you to their world. The singer is Damon Albarn from lead singer of Blur and the artist who does the art work for the Gorillaz is the creator of the Tank Girl comic. Its a collaboration between these two guys. It very creative and experimental, they can make whatever music they want and do what ever they want with this animated visual band. They aren't under control of anyone. This is why this album has sold over 10 million copies worldwide and is on the Guiness Book Of World Records as the most successful animated visual band! This album is highly recommended and I suggest picking it up, if you see it around. You won't be disappointed, I'd also recommend checking out their music videos. They have storylines to them and are very well produced
Where are my fellow 20-somethings who remember bumping this, putting the bass ALL THE WAY UP during that massive trip hop breakdown in 2001
I'm guilty...this is straight up nostalgia for me..I used to try and draw em up in my old art book..the tagging days man oh man...the digital won't let us go lol
So same!! Lucky for me my drawing skills haven't progressed at all since then.
+Sky Vettel lol mine haven't either :( but hey practice makes perfect right, get back to it and see what u can do?? this whole album just made my morning tho, its 8:17 I've been awake since 7 listening to this album and I promise I went threw every emotion. I cried I laughed I got happy sad, so on n so forth...this album defines me, and going back to it at 24yrs old is scary.....tomorrow comes today is still my all time fav tho..
It's an amazing thing what music can do! Hopefully it was more therapeutic than scary though :)
+Sky Vettel it def was. I needed a dose of nostalgia. I wish I remembered this album last night I'm awake early cuz I took molly last night and saw batman vs superman lol. so music is very important to me right now.....vibez wit meh :)
Simplemente una obra de arte
Best music from "Gorillaz" album, in my opinion.
I first heard Gorrilaz "Feel Good Inc" a long time ago when I was very young. I didn't pay much attention to it.
Then, a year ago or so, I found and listened to Feel Good Inc. I liked it.
Then Clint Eastwood. Liked it.
Then Pac-Man. And they looked different. So I searched the fandom. Turns out there's a lot of songs.
So after a while, we come to today, July 12 2021.
I decided to actually listen to Tranz for once, since I was considering making some sort of thing on it. I liked it.
Then I found this masterpiece with someone storyboarding it.
And now I like it.
I'm going through Gorillaz discography right now, and what a sick deep cut to find.
2022 and I'm just chilling listening to this song. I always loved this song
I've been replaying this banger for the past 40 minutes or so
I'll never forget how listening to this song made me feel when I was younger. It hits harder as an adult, the more time passed the more scars appeared from everything I've experienced, and this song holds a new meaning for me though for the same emotion.
Does anyone know which member of Gorillaz wrote the lyrics to this song? I hope 2d cause I think it gives a really interesting view of how he views the world. He's constantly paranoid and feels that everything is out to get him that even gravity scares him; it's always violently pulling on him and it never does so gently.
There's only one guy in the "band" He plays all the characters
(sighs) Yes, I know Damon Albarn actually wrote the lyrics, but I mean in the Gorillaz cannon. My question got answered anyways, I found a photo somewhere saying the lyrics were by both 2d and Murdoc.
Hmm well I know that Murdoc wrote Plastic Beach, Noodle wrote Demom Days, and 2D wrote The Fall so maybe Russel? Or Del? Not sure ...
+Shib00yah You might be thinking of Jamie Hewlett, who co-created the band with Damon Albarn. He isn't a musician though, he's a comic book artist and the story board artist for the music videos.
+Valalizee 17 yup you are right, every member has his album
This is one of my favorite songs, god darnit!it is soo good. my god.
Gravity, on Wii, never let me down, jelly. >_>
You should listen to Radiohead's music.
Ty Dan The Automator for making this banger. I'll never get sick of this track
I discovered this song yesterday and it's already one of my all time favourites
First time I listened to this one it instantly became my favorite. It’s hard to find songs that have the same type of vibe.
My brotha bought this album when it came out. I must have been around 7 yrs old.
Didn´t understand a word they spoke..But dem feels said it all.
Asante sana!
this song saved my life multiple times
Essa música é incrível, apesar de ser esquecida.
This song and this album takes me back. I was 17. Got this album and a Nintendo GameCube for Christmas or my birthday or both. Just had this cd on repeat playing Luigi’s Mansion all day. Love it. Always will.
Thank you for sharing this :)
Honestly imagining this song's bass drop right as a ghost in Luigi's Mansion scares you just enhances this for me
By FAR the most underrated Gorillaz song
Great song kind of depressing though but fantastically made
Very very very awesome
It's so good *because* it's depressing.
I dont find it depressing. Chances are you were or are depressed and you link the sound to your insecurities lol. If you're happy and hear this it's a pump up mix with deep bass . But to each their own
sound is 1000000000/10
you mean 5/4
I CRY
Nailed it
Baconz I would say it's more 19/2000😏 (wait no, that's a really low number and its way better than that)
Torchskul Music It's 5/4.
This song just jumped into my head just now. Great jam, used to listen to this album a lot when it first released. My buddy had an old school Bonneville, we'd cruise through town playing this and every time there was a crowd outside the local ice cream shop, he'd throw the car in neutral, turn off the ignition and then turn the key to start the car back up before shifting back into drive. It was hilarious to see peoples heads turn, just looks of, 'wtf just happened??' We were never sure if it was bad for the car but nothing ever happened. To be young and dumb. Good times.
This song never gets old no matter how many times I listen to it. I definitely think it's my favorite Gorillaz song, everything about it from the bass drop, to the drums, to 2D's singing, and so on make it fucking amazing. Both from the self-titled album and out of everything Gorillaz has made.
I can’t even put into words how much I love this band
Holy shit
Same feeling🙌🙌🙌💗💗💗
Same feeling🙌🙌💗💗
Although I like all of their albums, got to say that the self-titled album is my favorite as it's got a lot of amazing songs on it such as this one. Plus, all of the songs on it are superb, they all are great in their own way.
Man this song takes me to another world, Gorillaz you guys make the best music of all, thank you for such a great experience.
i love how gorillaz make depression something enjoyable :^)
Best group ever,Gorillaz the G.O.A.T. blessings all the way from Jamaica 🇯🇲🍾💯
I love this song and i listen this on spotify trillions of times
same
I always think I have a favorite Gorillaz song and then I find more Gorillaz songs that are equally as great and it kills me every single time.
Long nights, driving through the dark, wind blowing through the car, Gorillaz blasting.
The best nights.

I don't pull me down
I don't pull me down on you
I don't pull me down
I don't pull me down on me
I don't pull me down
I don't pull me down on you
[Outro: scratches]
I don't know, love is breaking
I don't know, love is breaking
I don't know, love is breaking
I don't know love-love-love-love
You are a god among men for posting the lyrics.

I remember buying this album years ago and I used to stick this track on repeat really quiet when I wanted to get some sleep, good times.
I used to be super hyper fixated on gorillaz and I was feeling nostalgic so I went back to listen to all my old favorites and man lemme tell you that BEAT MAN
Is it just me or does it kind of sound like a Scribblenauts level
confetti spaghetti omg you're right
Emmy lala yeah!
Those record scratches are a big part of it, but holy shit you're right. I'll never unhear this.
omg you're right
I can’t unhear it now
Mi cancion favorita de gorillaz. Hay muchos temas buenisimos, pero este sigue siendo el numero 1 para mi. Es unica en su estilo. Inigualable
Totalmente de acuerdo, he vuelto a ella después de años y no puedo dejar de escucharla de nuevo.......
people act like this is a deep cut or B-side of the debut album, but the truth is that this is one of the major highlights of that album.
this song is way too underrated. found out about gorillaz a few months ago and trust me, i’ll never be the same.
You hear a beat like this only once in a while, and being so saddened by the state of newer hip hop, still gives you creative juices to flow
