#10 On Melancholy Hill - Gorillaz - Plastic Beach

[olive6701]

murdoc reminds me of one of my friends... they both play bass, have messes up noses, and are sorta sexy

[herpfuckingderp]

I'm not even honestly sure how someone could dislike this song

[Eepicman]

You don't have to be high to expeirence this song. You just have to be in a mellow mood.

I ser myself a little bit like 2D. At one point, quite suddenly, my view of the world was shattered, I was depressed. Until again my vision changed suddenly. Now I can see a vit beyond simple meanings to see a bigger picture. People can't easily tell if I'm a deep thinker, slightly retarded, or just plain crazy. Some who don't know me may see me as slightly creepy, but others are good friends.

[noopklu]

Such a relaxing song

[badmofoDLR1]

hard to stop listening to

[chessiver]

Undoubtedly the best song by Gorillaz, a really sensitive song.

[supermark4]

@bobtheking bang some meth, pussy

[xxBobxThexKingxx]

smoke up, pussies.

[DoctorArmPump]

Sounds like it's from the 80s. It gets my vote.

[LooseNun]

Damn this replay button!

[susieaguirre13]

I want to have sex to this song too lol!

[kiranrad]

This one can be heard when you're feeling sad/happy/../anything! Put it on loop, and you just feel like sailing in whatever mood you're in!

[TyMan1229]

Just relaxing to this song makes me feel better

[Nikita1404Tube]

It's just wonderful.)))

[ElikaT21]

love it!

[MultiMuzikMajor]

My bestie showed me this song this morning3 I don't know why I didn't find it earlier.

[strangehipppo]

I wish this song didn't have an ending.

[SilentHillHeather]

So, pretty much the best song ever. My friend and I listened to this late at night while driving.....and he was singing. I almost melted. :)

[Slide2671]

This song is more like LSD, reality slowly blurring and changing while time just phases out, images thought in your head become reality, voices speak to you, and eventually, your not even in any type of world. You are just drifting in a place entirely of your creation, a new type of dimension, a bastion of thought.

[KrbpCP]

This song is so sad :'( ' ' Reminds me of a friend of mine who comitted suicide, I miss her <3

[IngloriousBastard911]

dont get it

[NaniMrsGangsta]

how come i love listening to music where all the top comments are about weed..but i don't smoke it?

[riley999999999]

smoking weed on melancholy hill

[davidmc2433]

Drugs r the shit

[XDCow]

Excuse me if I'm missing something, but why must one be high to enjoy good music?

Are drugs really the only thing that come to mind when listening to The Gorillaz? How shallow.

[PurpleRegulator]

@XDCow I know.. same goes for Pink Floyd. People need to be high to enjoy good music? If they need to get high to enjoy an emotional, touching song, they must not like the song in general.

[FistOfDisturbed]

@PurpleRegulator Gorillaz are good sober and high. Their ambient background beats make it heaven when you smoke though, especially Demon Days. That whole album is like a story, like the Hip-Hop/Electronic equivalent of Animals or The Wall.. well not the wall, maybe DSotM. Great to see another Gorillaz/Floyd fan in here.

[xxxscrubsxx]

@XDCow No one said you must be high. If people are saying this sound's great high, that's probably because it does. Just because someone posts something on youtube doesn't mean it's the only thought they have.

[L0Lm4ster]

@XDCow You call those people shallow without showing much depth to your own comment. You were unable to see both sides of your argument there. People commenting about being high and listening to this song probably enjoy this song sober too. Judging on your comment you have never smoked weed before. Don't judge something you've never experienced.

[PantstofryPWNZ]

@L0Lm4ster You literally said "judging on your comment" and then right after said "don't judge something"

regardless, why don't we all shut up and enjoy the song.

[mchitrak]

@PantstofryPWNZ i agree with the second sentiment,..... but i felt that i should point out that the same word can mean different things i different statements.... 'judging by' and 'judging' are miles apart

[PantstofryPWNZ]

@mchitrak no, they actually aren't. Either way, you're still judging something. It's not too difficult to understand, both phrases have the word 'judging' in them.

Let me reiterate that I have no intention to continue arguing. I was just pointing out a bit of hypocrisy.

[cuddilise]

@L0Lm4ster exactly, thank you

[slapfacedingdong]

@XDCow you are a SNOB

[xNoobstick]

@XDCow nobody ever said you have to be high to enjoy good music. You can enjoy anything sober. But being high makes it that much better. You have oviously never been high to make a fair and non-biased opinion

[NightyNacht]

@XDCow you must be high to stop being stupid like you're being right now

[HarrietTumban]

@XDCow You don't have to be high to enjoy good music, you just have to be high to really experience it... 420 bro...

[Maximum40]

@XDCow when ppl get high, music hits them a certain, pretty much in an indescribable way that someone who has never experienced cant understand. 

[MrIronNeo]

@Maximum40 That's a false hypothesis.

[118matrix]

love this mellow music

[OSVALDO7678]

Esta canción me hace sentir triste, raro como si algo malo fuera a pasar D:

[boy82killer]

@terfelin hahaha, most of the people who write these kinds of comments are just a bunch of teenagers who's never even seen pot before

[terfelin]

@boy82killer my thoughts exactly

[peacekamrynlorae]

Now this is my kind of relaxation music.

[Titan2030ify]

Love this Song.

[118matrix]

cool tune man

[musicsurfin]

I want to see a melancholy pill.....Oh wait i already did.... It's called Xanax!

[DrMentalCactus]

hmm i googled melancholy and apparently it means depressed for a long period of time, sad, and sorrow...but this song seems happy and about being in love so...confused?

[TeamGreenBurrito]

@DrMentalCactus The song is about finding peace and content in a world that is filled with strife and sadness.

[CalicoJames]

@DrMentalCactus Just think of it as someone who has been depressed and alone, finding hope and support in another person. Whether it be love or friendship, they endure to welcome a brighter future and their dreams. Even if things are sad, they are still able to enjoy the melody of life. (This is but one way to look at it.) Hope this helps! 

[skatbloodlord]

Is there a longer version?

[kevin131ify]

I love this song because apparently during recording Plastic Beach 2-D is being abused by Murdoc...you can totally hear that sadness in his voice, that's pretty damn cool

[IsitEvil]

This is the song I listen to when I look out the window while driving. Yeah.

[chekochoks]

yeah

[Stewart884422]

check out my cover of this on my channel

[DelaSally]

THIS VIDEO <3

[allycatbaker]

I try to avoid VEVO.

Success.

[numbery89]

@XxDeathDealerxX100 miley cyrus tried to cover this?

[danbauermusic]

HEYYYY, anyone that's into gorillaz would probably really dig my music. i play all the instruments on all my songs and am def similar to the band as someone who raps, but also has a bunch of non-rap songs. now i'm not gonna say i sound particularly like the gorillaz, cuz i don't, but i think anyone that's into that rap-alt-rock-whatever you want to call it, as long as it's good music style would dig it. thanks in advance if you do check it out!

[strikeanywherematchs]

Check out the video i made with this song! :)

[TendoQueen]

I could listen to this song a million times, over and over.

[hinatahiti88]

@ThisWorldOfAnna

[MJSullyBear]

When my boyfriend and I were just best friends he told me to listen to this song and pay close attention to the lyrics. I didn't finish it because my mom kicked me off the computer and so I didn't get the hint. But I just remembered it last night and listened to it and got the most insane, electric feeling ever. And now I get it. <3

[pigsdontsmell]

@MJSullyBear i am in love with a girl but we are just like best friends..... how did he get you to be his girlfriend?

[MJSullyBear]

@pigsdontsmell Well, I was with another guy, but he didn't me right. My boyfriend now had a huge crush on me, and I knew. When me and my ex broke up, I realized that my best friend was who I was supposed to be with, and we got together.

[xfitmichaud]

@MJSullyBear how sweet, makes me want to puke

[IsitEvil]

In before everyone hears this song and call themselfs the BIGGEST fan of the Gorrilaz

[sidearmin]

I wish there was a one-press repeat button for this song. I would mellow out to this song every day.

[tadhg546]

this song is so awesome

[XxDeathDealerxX100]

Miley Cyrus should have never tried to attempt to cover this song

[TheOnlyLoner0]

@XxDeathDealerxX100 I don't even want to THINK about what that sounded like -.-

[lenador75]

45 people meant to put dis i like

[FieryRedDonkeyOfHell]

@lenador75 c'mon man, come up with something new....

[RockLobster283]

I'm gonna need about tree-fitty.

[carlosss9871]

C; best song evah!

And Kids with guns!

[ThinCrustPizza67]

My favorite part of the song is 2:19.

"Up on Melancholy Hill..." fucking awesome.

[homergibson88]

Damn it this song makes me feel so empty inside...I love it

[NekkedApes]

Anyone else think this is the perfect pot smoking song?

[crazyowenproductions]

@NekkedApes No go away with your fucking pot low life

[lLambsie]

@crazyowenproductions peace dude no need to get hostile. blaze up

[tubeyouitsaccount]

@NekkedApes even the thumbs up are green

[nitro836]

@NekkedApes Bitch I need no substances, I enjoy the song without 'em.

[xXBlackTeddyBearXx]

@NekkedApes All the Gorillaz songs are the perfect pot smoking songs!

[terfelin]

@NekkedApes Just because the song is mellow doesn't mean its a pot smoking song. I'm 24, I intern at a lawyer's office, and my boss plays this song when he needs everyone to relax. Not smoke pot.

[anumayy]

@terfelin Offer your boss a blunt when he's chilling and receive a pay raise.

[Dracoma88]

@terfelin so your boss smokes blunts and no one else knows... seems like someone lame gets kept outa the circle :P

[terfelin]

we don't smoke at work, grow up.

[hopper727rs]

@NekkedApes I like Some Kind of Nature better

[SilentHillHeather]

@NekkedApes You are correct. :) 

[DsGBiohazard]

@NekkedApes KiD CuDi - Cudderisback

[jamesthewizard98]

@NekkedApes nah man, 19-2000

[ZeloepOlleh]

@NekkedApes this is,19-2000, and Rhinestone Eyes.

[twenty4four20]

<3

[QuintonG09]

Josiah Gatlyn's skate part brought me to this song <3

[Deuterosable]

I freaking love this album is just so perfect for me.

[americanmouth15]

This is crazy addictive. This album is sick. BUY IY

[Chewy2nd]

This song will make you forget everything wrong with your life in 3 minutes and 7 seconds

[vikitohp]

Beutifull song

[DrMentalCactus]

this is my perfect day dream song<3 i just think bout sitting there on that hill with my pet manatee and the perfect guy playing this song on his guitar playing this song and im sitting there petting the manatee resting my head on his shoulder singing along.... :) love the gorillaz. they always put a story in their songs

[Flyleafsoup]

I kinda wish I had that certain "someone" to lay with me on a hill. whilst holding hands, side by side, on a nice summer early evening (like how the day looks on the album cover). Where no one else matters, just, me, them, and this song. :P

how cheesy and cliche this sound, but that's okay. It doesn't matter :D

[M00NWALK3R100]

@Flyleafsoup As long as it comes from the bottom of your heart, our opinion doesn't matter.

[lazydudemanguy56]

@Flyleafsoup

“Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.” - Dr. Seuss

Hope you find that someone. :)

[MsHannerBananer]

I never understand Gorillaz song's fully, but they are amazing anyways. :D

[unrealgamr23]

beautiful song speaks to the soul.

[MarxxD1]

Hooooo Yheaaaaaaa.... ;D

[xEphemeralStyle]

Just a small interpretation, I think this song is about a couple who was once together, but the girl, specifically, left him. The boy is thinking about his past memories with her, how much he loves her and what not, and so wants to find her once again to be together. The relationship they shared was like a sweet dream that he didn`t want to wake up from, he realizes he can`t live without her and he needs her.

[Titan2030ify]

Where can i download this song? (Illegally of course)

[magdziulka100]

bouble soooooong xD



[psylabius]

[iamurpker7700]

i like chicken

[carecoable]

3...2...1... HAPPY 2012.HAPPY NEW YEAR.:This song sounds:

[EvilCardboard]

@carecoable That's how it should have been... Stupid English put Tini Tempah on... No class.

[carecoable]

@EvilCardboard I'm so sorry,sorry for my bad English. ._.

[TheDayMang]

The video really didn't do this song justice.

[EvilCardboard]

@TheDayMang I think they got the wrong approach, perhaps we picture it differently in our own way, I think of this song as a very sad song, I dreamt this song once, an earthquake and tsunami wiping out innocent people, and the gorrilaz on a raft are sailing the storm, dead bodies float on the water, fire, and horrible things, picking up a childs teddybear from the water, with no owner, then at the end it shows Death playing with their bodies, then showing the peoples soles fly into the sky. Yeah

[GameRaterAlpha]

@EvilCardboard

Like all forms of stories, music, etc. people often see them differently. Although this song has a title that might sound depressing, I think that the song is surprisingly calming. Don't know if it's the instruments or lyrics,but that's how I see it.

[nitro836]

@GameRaterAlpha Song seems to be roughly about girl not liking guy but guy liking girl.

Girl finds no one so settles with guy.

[liftinxd]

can't. stop. listening

[Gefy2]

The Beatles - And your bird can sing. This is so good...

[DoThaWork]

For some reason I hated this album when I first heard it but I'm slowly getting into it a couple years later.

[ThisWorldOfAnna]

If i get 10 thumbs ups, i'll do a video on a drawing of ALL 3 phases of Noodle. And maybe the cyborg.

[0019930418]

@ThisWorldOfAnna ok cool. im the 10th thumb up. 

[RosenRooth]

[JoshLuke864]

@yuikol14 lol don't worry about it.

[yuikol14]

i feel this is the best song on plastic island. i also believe plastic island is there best album.

AND I KNOW GORILLAZ IS THE BEST BAND.

[JoshLuke864]

@yuikol14 you love the Gorillaz so much eh? only true Gorillaz fans would know that it's "Plastic Beach" one of the greatest albums of 2010. go back to school

[yuikol14]

@JoshLuke864 What does your comment even mean. Are you complimenting me or making fun of me? You called me a true Gorillaz fan but said go back to school. Is that an insult? I really am confused. ........tool

[OpenedCanOfWhoopAss]

@yuikol14 troll harder

[DoThaWork]

@yuikol14 Plastic Island is very good, but I preferred Demon Weeks.

[Guillaumebiz]

Trop bonne la tounes :D

[irkenrick]
