Gorillaz - Cloud Of Unknowing (Damon Albarn vocals)

[bodosegogo]

I think this is about God

[Kdiamond13]

I've missed all the blur live performances, I hope they do some live stuff...Wanna see them. This track reminds of what iv missed!

[claysadventures]

whered u find this

[hiroshi19720310]

I feel like I'm in heaven in this version. I like it.

[nikican]

One of the finest songs Albarn has written, certainly in a long while. Would love to hear this as the last track on a Blur album. Ah, well. One can dream!

[cutiepiefreckles]

I think this is my favorite of all of Damon's vocals. There's just this particular softness to it that just feels good upon listening to it. I also like the picture it paints - a melancholy 2D singing about hope for the future while trapped in his underwater plastic room. I'm so glad I found this :)

[hugoxca]

if you are comparing past albums to plastic beach, you are not a true gorillaz fan

[mk3rules]

Why the hell are people comparing Demon Days to this?!?!?!

[claysadventures]

@mk3rules what do u mean by that o.o

[deandave24]

@mk3rules because they are both albums by Gorillaz?

[wwedbzjon]

... this version i personaly think is better...more demon days sounding... and the way damon changes the range of his voice....but Womaks is alot more Plastic beach, so both are GRRRRRRREEEAAAATTTT

[BBoldtThaMixer]

I like the instrumental to this better, but honestly Bobby's vocals are more soulful and im glad his was on the album. This is great though, Damon FTW.

[Nesplayer]

@BBoldtThaMixer

I agree, bobby womack's version is so powerful. This one was really good as well!

[NashimiChan]

@BBoldtThaMixer I disagree. To me, Damon's voice conveys so much more subtle emotions, it sounds so sincere and real I can nearly relate to it. I keep skipping Bobby's version, because it never really clicked for me, I just simply never am in the mood to listen to it. There's never a good time for me to play it. I don't feel it. But that's just me ;)

[IGETTHUMBSDOWNALOT1]

@NashimiChan

Nah, I think it sucks. It's the typical slow rock ballads ya hear a million times. Womacks version is kinda rare because you barley hear that type of style in a mainstream album.

Now, excuse me while I unzip my pants.... *oh yes, I'm going there.......real gooooooooooooood*

[krazorspoon]

@IGETTHUMBSDOWNALOT1 I agree wholeheartedly...

... except on that very last bit. >>;

[wwedbzjon]

Do I sence a P-Side?

[bluemarkervoidness]

wow. i wish this was the album version a preferable way to end it. its honestly amazing, it has that special thing just like demon days has for me...

[TheDailyCrumb]

this is amazing. acoustic is lovely 

[KatieAGriffin]

KCRW Session anyone now were you can get the mp3 of the rest of the songs from?

[McEvoy2006]

Well in all honesty, this should have been the album version. Its potentially one of Damon's best ballads! Its annoying how unselfish he is with his songs! god dammit

[fuzzybuni]

@McEvoy2006 Haha, best comment I've seen about Gorillaz yet.

[iFranxo]

@McEvoy2006 He never recorded this song with his vocals he wrote it specifically for Bobby Womack, this was done live in a radio studio . & I disagree , while I like this one better I have to admit Bobby Womack's version fit better on the album .

[superCAPSMAN]

This is better but i like Bobby's version as well, both are good in there own way

[MisterBankz]

In my totally unbiased opinion I LOVE this 10 times more than the album version . Damon's voice fit's the instrumentation perfectly . It's definitely a flashback to their past works & sounds sorta like some of Damon's other stuff . I see why they got Bobby for the album version cuz that one fit but they gotta release this on the next single or something , they just HAVE to :)

[MrGorillazhtf]

This should totally be a b-side of Plastic Beach!

[235T1NGR4Y23]

Awesome. Could you upload the other songs from the KCRW? That would rock man.

[rkukentertainment]

@235T1NGR4Y23 You can listen to the entire show on the KCRW website

[235T1NGR4Y23]

@rkukentertainment Yeah but would love mp3s of these.

[DoctaDualist]

that guy is pretty good. he should put out an album.

[hckatybacon]

So amazing. Jeez Damon melts me.

[rkukentertainment]

Why have you disabled ratings, who can't like this.

[f00fighter20]

too bad this wasn't the album version.....
