I feel kind of upset that this was one of their last big parts of the story, since after all of this they gave up on the plan and decided to make everything go back to normal days 7 years later in Humanz, I just feel like there could have been so much more. phase 2-3 where my favorite (Demon days-Plastic beach).
@@benno._.72 Whether they weren't getting enough budget or inspiration, I think we as the fans should make some kind of petition or call for attention. Sad thing is, from what I've observed so far, the Gorillaz fandom seems to be separated by two kinds fans. One would be those who only listen to the songs, and second would be those who genuinely care about the story. I think the small portion of the latter don't call out to the creators enough, and I kinda wish they did. I would be happy if they were able to make even just a comic series. I'm fine if there wasn't a movie as long as we get to see the characters and their stories get concluded somewhat.

Everytime I play this song, I’m instantly transported back to my high school days. Specifically this one day in Year 9 nearing the end of the day on a Friday. I was in art class about 30mins before the bell goes and it was raining outside, I was sitting in a separate room with my friend from the rest of the class and these two Year 12 (senior) girls who were doing their own thing. I’m a lot happier now than I was then and I’m so grateful for the impact Gorillaz have had on my life : )
If you actually ignore the Nagito edit and listen to the song, it's so worth it. Like hell, when I first heard my friends hear it, I played it for years. In total, I've being listening to it for 6 years.

This song is just fricking amazing 10/10 From top to bottom There's emotion in every part of the lyrics, the vibe is insanely good and very appropriate for a post-apocalyptic storytelling, all the rythms in the song are top-tier, with the buzzing noises, the electricity element, the muffed voice, everything in this song is PERFECT.
Reminder: it's okay for new people to like this song because music is meant to be heard. Just appreciate the song and don't make it only be about an edit
@@iwaterboardchildren hey, thanks! Gave it the watch, not entirely sure how I feel about the gun to the head part-- but it's interesting yeah. Personally if I had to choose, I'd choose this storyboard video still. XD I agree with others that this would have made an amazing video. They could recreate it framed as a flashback sort of reminiscent tale of the Plastic Beach. It's funny, I think this got scrapped because it's large- and wouldn't fit neatly in between Melancholy Hill after Stylo. I think it's open enough to give it another look. :)

I don't know why but the story of Plastic Beach just stuck with me ever since I've discovered the album and the lore (never been a Gorilaz fan). There's something so deeply personal about this faze. No more care free rock star mundanity. It's time to face their fears, be as vulnerable as ever. There's such a painful beauty in this vulnerability filled with fear and hope.
Fun fact: in chronological order, the three songs, stylo, on melancholy hill, and rhinestone eyes, are the three songs that set the story of the journey to plastic beach and every song after rhinestone eyes was (by the story) recorded at plastic beach
Funny story, I haven’t seen a single comment about the Nagito edit, or a single comment complaining about the Nagito edit. Literally all I see are people complaining about people complaining.

I cannot describe the feeling of listening to this song in the early hours of the morning, when my room is pitch black, apart from the red dot on my tv. The tiny red dot is the only thing my eyes have to focus on, and it starts to drift around. It almost looks like im looking at another planet or star from far away whilst floating through the black void of space. Sometimes, i swear i can make out the details of the surface of said planet or star...
I remember when this video first came out I was mad that it was only a storyboard since they wouldn't fund the animated version. Now the storyboard lives in my head as the definitive version of the video and I wouldn't have it any other way, just Jamie's visual storytelling and Damon's music.
At the end of the song, there is a voice said "here we go again". They know the song was so good that we would play it in loop. I guess we all simple and have good taste
I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away When the paralytic dreams that we all seem to keep Drive on engines 'til they weep With future pixels in factories far away So call the mainland from the beach All parties now washed up in bleach The waves are rising for this time of year And nobody knows what to do with the heat Under sunshine pylons we'll meet While rain is falling like rhinestones from the sky Uh mmmmMMMMMMMmmmmm... I got a feeling now my heart is frozen All the verses and the corrosion Have been after native in my soul I prayed on the immovable Yeah, clinging to the atoms of rocks Seasons, the adjustments, signs of change I can't see now she said taxi Now red light is all I can take This dawn brings strange loyalties, and skies I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away (Here we go again) (That's electric) Uh (That's electric) Helicopters fly over the beach Same time everyday, same routine Clear target in the summer when skies are blue It's part of the noise when winter comes It reverberates in my lungs Nature's corrupted in factories far away (Here we go again) (That's electric) Your love's like rhinestones, falling from the sky (That's electric) With future pixels in factories far away (Here we go again) (That's electric) Your love's like rhinestones, falling from the sky (That's electric) With future pixels in factories far away (Here we go again)
For how chill this song is, the crowd went mental for it. I'm pretty sure I saw Damon tear up when we sang the tune not even the words. that was the best concert I've ever been to. Good times
I was always confused about that section with the dudes on the horses until I remembered that the gas mask dude was a rejected horseman of the apocalypse.
@CHAYSE MUELLER there was a plan for Murdoc to be revealed as an immortal being responsible for every disaster ever but I'm fairly sure it didn't end up canon
Hey Gorillaz fans! I have just released my debut album CRASTI LAND and since Gorillaz are among my biggest inspirations, I thought I might share the news with other fans :) I have worked really hard on this album and I would appreciate every single listen and review, thank you in advance! Have a wonderful day!
the gorillaz story NEEDS TO BE A MOVIE Edit: Why tf is this comment suddenly blowing up, I typed this like 3 years ago 2nd edit 09/31: apparently I predicted it or something
I love how the collective internet decided that this song was perfect for “scary images” instead of good edits there are so many opportunities but nope images and story’s
I'm not even kidding when I say I think about this every day. My group of writers friends and I are currently writing phase 3. I write for Murdoc, so my heart clenches in my chest every time it dawns on me that Murdoc doesn't know how to express himself or how to be a good person, unless it's in song form. His lyrics are so deep and meaningful and emotional and vulnerable. A side of him he only shows in the form of lyrics, because it's safe. If anyone asked him why he wrote the lyrics down, he could easily tell them "It doesn't mean anything significant to my life. It's a reflection of whatever the listener experiences while listening." In reality he's bottling everything up inside and pretending to be strong and stable enough to power through the day's
Considering the weight of this song despite its pop sound, I'm really happy that Gorillaz decided to officialize the music video that this artist made & posted the storyboards of, it really fits. Adds a lot to the mythos around Plastic Beach, too
EXACTLY I don't give a fuck if you came from that one Nagito edit, or from TikTok, or you're a fan, or whatever, just enjoy the damn song because it's a fucking banger.
Same I knew of their existence since I was like 11 but I didn’t like the music whatsoever but since my music taste has changed and I’m more open to music I ended up loving gorillaz in the future. So now I’m like a huge fan!
Я не могу без Gorillaz.... ❤🩹 Мне 12, я девочка и все детство слушала песни Shape of You, Geek in the pink, Eminem, They don't care about us, Беспечный Ангел, Сансара, Gorillaz и многие другие того же типа. Я обожаю все песни до единой. Их я узнала из папиного плейлиста в машине 🥹 Хотя знаете, я тот человек, который слушает и это, и K-Pop (Stray Kids, Txt...) Я довольна своим плейлистом 🌸
Someone needs to start a petition to get this video finished EDIT from 2020: Yes, I'm aware that a fan actually did animate this, and that's awesome. I was glad to see it actually finished.
I don’t understand how people slept on this and it only became popular _now_ Also, don’t be toxic to newer listeners, they’re discovering the same gem you’re listening to. If anything, it should be celebrated that even their older music is still popular to this day.
I can't believe it has now been 14 years since the Gorillaz's released one of their greatest albums Plastic Beach. Time goes by fast I was nine when this album came out.
I remember the huge gap between Demon Days and Plastic Beach - the hype when PB came out was so real, but at the same time it was a bit of a question as to if they could follow up the success of DD. We had nothing to worry about - Demon Days and Plastic Beach are down in history as being *the* definitive new age alt-rock/pop albums for the 2000s.
Jamie Hewlett did such a great job with the storyboard i cannot imagine the frustration of it being cut by the studios by fear of not making enough money.
It's ironic that the money which was going to be spent on this was spent on doncamatic which was made to be like all other music videos at the time which the record label thought would make them more money in the end the rhinestone eyes storyboard and song was more popular than doncamatic
I am SO bummed they did not make a proper animated version. do you know how fucking epic it could have been?!?! There was so much action and awesomeness in the one video! :''(
Libbi Charmaine - SonyaEnzo Indeed :( but Converse sponsored them and they were able to do "DoYaThing" which was awesome. And now they're working on a new album and I'm so excited.
My brother in christ I watched this with no knowledge of the Gorillaz lore and forgot all about the band until recently. Now I've learned all the lore and can finally appreciate this masterpiece. Arguably one of their best music videos.
@Carbon Moss it's whatever for myself at least. Can't let a bunch of little text on the screen get to me too much👨🦲👍 But I really haven't seen a single comment talking about how they actually came to this from the edit.
Danganronpa fans: I guess we know why we are all here. *(Edit: please stop sending negative comments, I was really happy about one of my favorite songs from gorillaz getting more recognition, i didn't write this with the intention of making rhinestone eyes an "edit song" i think it's a masterpiece and it deserves recognition. Please stop sending hate, i enjoy this song and I'm happy about other people listening to it. Please stop.)*
I can't really quite explain why, maybe just the vibes and lyrics, but this feels like the anthem for 2024. It has kind of a grim inevitability sound to it.
Umm.. What? No song is more aggressive? How about... Psychosocial by Slipknot, Bück Dich, Sonne or Mein Teil by Rammstein? Come on. Every Metal Song is more aggresive :/ 😂 this is still the second best band ever
+Leon Zilla lol, I don't doubt it, but I don't really listen to the metal genre. Honestly, I'm more of an orchestral guy, myself (which can admittedly get pretty aggressive). What I really mean is it's super impressive how these guys nailed that off-putting tone so well despite the fact that the singer's pitch barely fluctuates and he shows just about 0 emotion.
Chucky Hagelo Oh, my word, you're right. No, but I was listening to Hurt by NiN the other day (and a couple other songs) and talking to my brother about what it meant to us. One of the interesting things we both noticed was Reznor's inflections while singing Hurt, how raspy and almost dry it sounded. And we speculated that maybe it was done on purpose to convey the idea that the singer is not some person sitting behind a mic in a recording studio with some angelic voice. It sounds more like what you'd hear drifting through an alley from the parched throat of a homeless person who'd lost everything. But the concept being portrayed through it is that what happened to the singer can happen to anyone and everyone. And it is - we're all being consumed by our greed, pride, and self-destruction. Anyway (sorry, I kinda ranted there), my point being - Trent Reznor is an incredible vocalizer and a brilliant musical artist.
I feel like 2D has become like that normal guy who's caught in the middle and has no idea whats going on but just goes along with it anyway cause he's got no other choice lol.
+Xing-Yun Well the plastic beach album was sort of Murdoc's album so it would focus a lot on him, Demon days was noodle's album and music videos such as DARE and el manana focused on her. If The Fall had some music videos I bet they would focus on 2d since that's sort of his album.
Para todos los que escuchen por primera vez este rolón al igual para los que lo llevan escuchando desde años, la música es para compartirla y sentirla no seamos tóxicos con la música ;)
I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away When the paralytic dreams that we all seem to keep Drive on engines 'til they weep With future pixels in factories far away So call the mainland from the beach Your heart is now washed up in bleach The waves are rising for this time of year And nobody knows what to do with the heat Under sunshine pylons we'll meet While rain is falling like rhinestones from the sky [Verse 2] I got a feeling now my heart is frozen All the verses and the corrosion Have been obstinate in my soul I prayed on the unmovable Yet clinging to the atoms of rock Seasons see adjustment signs of change I can't see now, she said, "Taxi" Now that light is so I can see This storm bring strange loyalties and skies I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away [Refrain] That's electric That's electric [Verse 3] Helicopters fly over the beach Same time every day, same routine A clear target in the summer when skies are blue It's part of the noise when winter comes It reverberates in my lungs Nature's corrupted in factories far away [Outro] That's electric Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky That's electric With future pixels in factories far away That's electric Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky That's electric With future pixels in factories far away
IMO: it could be interesting to see a finished video, but i actually think this storyboard FITS so great with the song like it is, the tone feels so good.
The song is also called Rhinestone Eyes, which is fake diamonds, so it feels a little like a 'fake' music video since it's unfinished and not fully animated.
one guy is actually doing an animation for it, and said he's almost done with it too. His name is Richard van as, His stuff looks really good right now
Nahhh just read why - Rhinestone Eyes was intended to be the next single off Plastic Beach after On Melancholy Hill, and storyboarding began even before the On Melancholy Hill video was officially released. In interviews this year Jamie had indicated that the videos would form a continuous story (including, in particular, the interview with Time Out Beirut in which he said it was intended the story would play out over 'four or five' videos). Rhinestone Eyes was already being promoted in the USA from early June via Gorillaz official promo partners All Access and promo CDs had been pressed and circulated. However, before the video went into production EMI indicated to Gorillaz that they would not fund it. This was probably down to poor chart performance of Stylo and On Melancholy Hill, and a lack of backing for Rhinestone Eyes. Plastic Beach itself has, even considering the overall downturn in music sales over the last 10 years, performed poorly commercially in comparison with the s/t album and Demon Days. (although it has sold around 265,600 copies in the UK, 351,179 copies in the USA, and well over 1 million copies worldwide).
my boyfriend and i were actually talking about this, apparently they blew most of the animating budget on the CGI models. cyborg noodle being CGI makes sense, the others....not so much. myabe if they had cut back on CGI this would've been animated
why did this never get a music video! it's would of been the best one
Actually, someone animated it! Here is the link.
th-cam.com/video/1-iPq3qWeQQ/w-d-xo.html
Their budget ran out, so they made Doncamatic.
Budget, and probably for the Melancholy Hill video to make sense.
I think is for Stylo, que chulada...
Lost chord by gorillaz
The lyrics:
I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower
That you made with plastic power
Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away
When the paralytic dreams that we all seem to keep
Drive on engines 'til they weep
With future pixels in factories far away
So call the mainland from the beach
All parties now washed up in bleach
The waves are rising for this time of year
And nobody knows what to do with the heat
Under sunshine pylons, we'll meet
While rain is falling like rhinestones from the sky
I got a feeling now my heart is frozen
All the verses and the corrosion
Have been after native in my soul
I prayed on the unmovable
Yeah, clinging to the atoms of rock
Seasons, the adjustments
Times have changed
I can't see now, she said "taxi"
Now that light is so I can take
This storm brings strange loyalties and skies
I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower
That you made with plastic power
Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away
Here we go again
That's electric
That's electric
Helicopters fly over the beach
Same time every day, same routine
A clear target in the summer when skies are blue
It's part of the noise when winter comes
It reverberates in my lungs
Nature's corrupted in factories far away
Here we go again
That's electric
Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky
That's electric
With future pixels in factories far away
Here we go again
That's electric
Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky
That's electric
With future pixels in factories far away
Here we go again

If you actually ignore the Nagito edit and listen to the song, it's so worth it. Like hell, when I first heard my friends hear it, I played it for years. In total, I've being listening to it for 6 years.
any song recommendations that have the same vibe to this one? i'm in love with this song
@@bonk5309 maybe plastic beach
@@bonk5309 plastic beach, feel good inc, O Green World, Tomorrow Comes Today, Empire Ants. And the one with the most similar vibe is On melancholy Hill, I hope this helps :)

[Verse 1]
I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower
That you made with plastic power
Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away
Where the paralytic dreams that we all seem to keep
Drive on engines till they weep
With future pixels in factories far away
So call the mainland from the beach
Your heart is now washed up in bleach
The waves are rising for this time of year
And nobody knows what to do with the heat
Under sunshine pylons, we'll meet
While rain is falling like rhinestones from the sky
[Chorus]
(Uh)
(Mmmmm)
[Verse 2]
I can't see you now my heart is frozen
All the bowses and the growses
Have been abstinated in my soul
I prayed on the immovable
Yet clinging to the atoms of rock
Seasons see adjustment signs of change
I can't see now, she said, "Taxi"
Now that light is all I can take
This dawn brings strange loyalties and skies
I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower
That you made with plastic power
Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away
[Chorus]
(Here we go again)
That's electric
(Uh)
That's electric
[Verse 3]
Helicopters fly over the beach
Same time every day, same routine
A clear target in the summer when skies are blue
It's part of the noise when winter comes
It reverberates in my lungs
Nature's corrupted in factories far away
[Chorus]

That's electric
Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky

With future pixels in factories far away

Thanks!
This song is just fricking amazing
10/10
From top to bottom
There's emotion in every part of the lyrics, the vibe is insanely good and very appropriate for a post-apocalyptic storytelling, all the rythms in the song are top-tier, with the buzzing noises, the electricity element, the muffed voice, everything in this song is PERFECT.
Reminder: it's okay for new people to like this song because music is meant to be heard. Just appreciate the song and don't make it only be about an edit
T H I S
So I'm curious though, what's behind the influx of the new discoverers?
@@iwaterboardchildren oh wow, makes me wanna check it out. No clue what Danganronpa is yet though. Lol
@@iwaterboardchildren hey, thanks! Gave it the watch, not entirely sure how I feel about the gun to the head part-- but it's interesting yeah.
Personally if I had to choose, I'd choose this storyboard video still. XD I agree with others that this would have made an amazing video.
They could recreate it framed as a flashback sort of reminiscent tale of the Plastic Beach.
It's funny, I think this got scrapped because it's large- and wouldn't fit neatly in between Melancholy Hill after Stylo. I think it's open enough to give it another look. :)
Finally a person with a fricking brain here! 😩

Also that wicked "electric-tic-tic-tic..." instrumental satisfies a weird itch in my brain I never knew I had

And Best gorrillaz's song 🤠👌🏻
I don't know why but the story of Plastic Beach just stuck with me ever since I've discovered the album and the lore (never been a Gorilaz fan). There's something so deeply personal about this faze. No more care free rock star mundanity. It's time to face their fears, be as vulnerable as ever.
There's such a painful beauty in this vulnerability filled with fear and hope.
My little cousin likes to listen to Gorillaz with me and this is one of her favorites and she calls it the "that's electric song". She's so cute.
That made me smile
i call it that and i am 21 years old

funny enough that part comes from an demo song called electric shock
Fun fact: in chronological order, the three songs, stylo, on melancholy hill, and rhinestone eyes, are the three songs that set the story of the journey to plastic beach and every song after rhinestone eyes was (by the story) recorded at plastic beach

I remember when this video first came out I was mad that it was only a storyboard since they wouldn't fund the animated version.
Now the storyboard lives in my head as the definitive version of the video and I wouldn't have it any other way, just Jamie's visual storytelling and Damon's music.
Okay but I still have to ask: Did you see the fully animated fan version? 6 years of works and I think it looks incredible.

I will never accept he wrote On Melancholy Hill. Not the abusive green pickle. No.
hate it here
I'm not even kidding when I say I think about this every day.
My group of writers friends and I are currently writing phase 3. I write for Murdoc, so my heart clenches in my chest every time it dawns on me that Murdoc doesn't know how to express himself or how to be a good person, unless it's in song form. His lyrics are so deep and meaningful and emotional and vulnerable. A side of him he only shows in the form of lyrics, because it's safe. If anyone asked him why he wrote the lyrics down, he could easily tell them "It doesn't mean anything significant to my life. It's a reflection of whatever the listener experiences while listening."
In reality he's bottling everything up inside and pretending to be strong and stable enough to power through the day's

Storyboards do have a charm with them sometimes.
I can't believe it has now been 14 years since the Gorillaz's released one of their greatest albums Plastic Beach. Time goes by fast I was nine when this album came out.
I remember the huge gap between Demon Days and Plastic Beach - the hype when PB came out was so real, but at the same time it was a bit of a question as to if they could follow up the success of DD.
We had nothing to worry about - Demon Days and Plastic Beach are down in history as being *the* definitive new age alt-rock/pop albums for the 2000s.

Jamie Hewlett did such a great job with the storyboard i cannot imagine the frustration of it being cut by the studios by fear of not making enough money.
It's ironic that the money which was going to be spent on this was spent on doncamatic which was made to be like all other music videos at the time which the record label thought would make them more money in the end the rhinestone eyes storyboard and song was more popular than doncamatic

recently got back into gorillaz, i prefer their older music, probably just cuz im used to it tbh
Yep. Official on my playlist
For having such monotone vocalization, I don't think I've ever heard a song this...aggressive before.
Umm.. What? No song is more aggressive? How about... Psychosocial by Slipknot, Bück Dich, Sonne or Mein Teil by Rammstein? Come on. Every Metal Song is more aggresive :/ 😂 this is still the second best band ever
+Leon Zilla lol, I don't doubt it, but I don't really listen to the metal genre. Honestly, I'm more of an orchestral guy, myself (which can admittedly get pretty aggressive). What I really mean is it's super impressive how these guys nailed that off-putting tone so well despite the fact that the singer's pitch barely fluctuates and he shows just about 0 emotion.
PetrifiedEwenHeDs yeah gorillaz are awesome
PetrifiedEwenHeDs Compare this song to Nine Inch Nails
Chucky Hagelo Oh, my word, you're right.
No, but I was listening to Hurt by NiN the other day (and a couple other songs) and talking to my brother about what it meant to us. One of the interesting things we both noticed was Reznor's inflections while singing Hurt, how raspy and almost dry it sounded. And we speculated that maybe it was done on purpose to convey the idea that the singer is not some person sitting behind a mic in a recording studio with some angelic voice. It sounds more like what you'd hear drifting through an alley from the parched throat of a homeless person who'd lost everything. But the concept being portrayed through it is that what happened to the singer can happen to anyone and everyone. And it is - we're all being consumed by our greed, pride, and self-destruction.
Anyway (sorry, I kinda ranted there), my point being - Trent Reznor is an incredible vocalizer and a brilliant musical artist.
Mmm that original 2d voice is like soft butter~
Then listen to rockit and you'll see 2ds voice change
I think it's Boogieman singing

say rip to Daley and Cyborg Noodle aswell.
Wait what
@@whostolethebeans4537 look up the lost chord, their newest song
@@no.1valkmainAL_oce yep

I feel like 2D has become like that normal guy who's caught in the middle and has no idea whats going on but just goes along with it anyway cause he's got no other choice lol.
Pretty much has XD
+Xing-Yun Well the plastic beach album was sort of Murdoc's album so it would focus a lot on him, Demon days was noodle's album and music videos such as DARE and el manana focused on her. If The Fall had some music videos I bet they would focus on 2d since that's sort of his album.
+TheFirstNoel And the fact that 2D was literally kidnapped to do this album
+fundippa ikr?
+fundippa The first album was sort of his.

I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower
That you made with plastic power
Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away
When the paralytic dreams that we all seem to keep
Drive on engines 'til they weep
With future pixels in factories far away
So call the mainland from the beach
Your heart is now washed up in bleach
The waves are rising for this time of year
And nobody knows what to do with the heat
Under sunshine pylons we'll meet
While rain is falling like rhinestones from the sky
[Verse 2]
I got a feeling now my heart is frozen
All the verses and the corrosion
Have been obstinate in my soul
I prayed on the unmovable
Yet clinging to the atoms of rock
Seasons see adjustment signs of change
I can't see now, she said, "Taxi"
Now that light is so I can see
This storm bring strange loyalties and skies
I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower
That you made with plastic power
Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away
[Refrain]
That's electric
That's electric
[Verse 3]
Helicopters fly over the beach
Same time every day, same routine
A clear target in the summer when skies are blue
It's part of the noise when winter comes
It reverberates in my lungs
Nature's corrupted in factories far away
[Outro]
That's electric
Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky
That's electric
With future pixels in factories far away
That's electric
Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky
That's electric
With future pixels in factories far away
You're welcome

Thank you, good sir!

Fun fact: I never knew this song was from gorillaz. But it’s my fav song
IMO: it could be interesting to see a finished video, but i actually think this storyboard FITS so great with the song like it is, the tone feels so good.
It's like reading a comic, but instead of text, you have the music setting the mood.
The song is also called Rhinestone Eyes, which is fake diamonds, so it feels a little like a 'fake' music video since it's unfinished and not fully animated.
i feel this comment
after watching the video so many times, it would just feel weird to see it animated
one guy is actually doing an animation for it, and said he's almost done with it too. His name is Richard van as, His stuff looks really good right now
Elusory Monk Someone on TH-cam is almost finished with it, he has two clips posted on his channel of pieces of it.
2:17 2-D's accent seeps through
I could literally listen to this on repeat for hours on end
Been there, done that

Nahhh just read why -
Rhinestone Eyes was intended to be the next single off Plastic Beach after On Melancholy Hill, and storyboarding began even before the On Melancholy Hill video was officially released. In interviews this year Jamie had indicated that the videos would form a continuous story (including, in particular, the interview with Time Out Beirut in which he said it was intended the story would play out over 'four or five' videos). Rhinestone Eyes was already being promoted in the USA from early June via Gorillaz official promo partners All Access and promo CDs had been pressed and circulated. However, before the video went into production EMI indicated to Gorillaz that they would not fund it. This was probably down to poor chart performance of Stylo and On Melancholy Hill, and a lack of backing for Rhinestone Eyes. Plastic Beach itself has, even considering the overall downturn in music sales over the last 10 years, performed poorly commercially in comparison with the s/t album and Demon Days. (although it has sold around 265,600 copies in the UK, 351,179 copies in the USA, and well over 1 million copies worldwide).
i didn't expect to get any llikes on this...
my boyfriend and i were actually talking about this, apparently they blew most of the animating budget on the CGI models. cyborg noodle being CGI makes sense, the others....not so much. myabe if they had cut back on CGI this would've been animated
I honestly think it fits more when not animated. It gives it a certain feel that i dont think full animation could've give it
The images seem to be dancing anyway. It kinda makes my eyes hurt but I like the effect.
Soapy Waffles a guy made it full animated go look it up is perfect
Up the irons!! 🤘🏽
Ferdinando Di Maio he thinks it fits non-animated better,not that he wants to know if there is one.But still thanks for still trying to help
