im going to listen to this while smoking 300grams of weed then ill die go to heaven have buddah reincarnate me as a two headed pyhcadelic war elephant
Insted of reading to the little kids out of those kiddie books just play this song to kintergardeners Lol then they'll have a whole new look on things
I remember my causins offering me Demon Days album on Christmas. And I listening to the album all day during 26 of December in the good ol' discman. Oh good memories...
@aliasajd Yea I know, but as I said before I'm from Portugal and in here all the people called walkman as discman, so before the mp3, everybody know the "discman". :D
The strange folk are blinding the eyes of the happy people while they rape Mother Earth. The happy people arent completely happy anymore, because they are deeply connected to the Mother. They need her. But its too late...
I currently live in a city which is known worldwide for their gun factories. The interesting things is they first started building guns in the middle age when they begun mining the mountains. The evil came through mining to town somehow.
In the beginning, we didn't care. We didn't know much, but it didn't matter. Humanity danced and was one with the world. We were the happy folk. But then civilization arrived, along with technology, materialism, and politics. Now, the strange folk shall end the world.
That's the story I think this song tells. Our history.
I listened to this song on my iPod while standing up in a Toyota Landcruiser with its top open, hair blowing in the wind, driving up the side of a mountain in Africa.
wtf stop whining about who should be narrating this thing. They made the song like this, it's fucking awesome and if you really think you know more about his songs than Damon himself, you should write him a letter to ask if he can make another version of this song with *insert name here* as narrator.
"falling out of airplanes and hiding out in holes, waiting for the sunset to come, people going home, jump back from behind them and shoot them in the head. now everybody dacing the dance of the dead"
"waiting for the sunset to come people going home jump back from behind them and shoot them in the head know every body dacing the dance of the dead" the dopest line:)
@randomdrawer1234 Consider me iffy on that one. Although Morgan Freeman could add a very serious sound and creepy vibe, this guy gives a mysterious, Dr. Seuce like sounding, which is perfect for Gorillaz.
@TFMjared the happy folk turned into the shadow peaple......the human races lust for more......thats why in the end there was nothing... a big loud sound.....that us us screaming for a second chance at life becosue in the end we have killed ourselves....
