  • Roots was fucked up lmao. He is the man!

  • they're so fockin stoned

  • That's Roots Manuva, he's hip hop royalty,and as such , can do pretty much anything he fucking well pleases.

  • My god the rapper has no flow.

  • @Benjy3634 listen to witness (1 hope)

  • They were both high but i love how at 2:07 Martina looks over at him. Like "Ok it's time for me to save this mutha fucka. Now watch and look learn sucka!"

  • his name is roots manuva and he... well as much as i love him he did fuck up..

  • OMG!!!!!!!! heavenly voice.!!! Lose the tool and you are on a star. Love you Martina.!!!!!!!!!!!! Marry me!!! Martina Marquez! Love the sound of that.

    Besos

  • @jorgmarq tool? he's the frickin godfather of uk hip hop! listen to his tracks like witness, juggle tings proper, again and again etc. the only tool i see here is you -_-

  • Jesus H Christ, did Roots snort powdered raccoon brain before going on stage? Topley-Bird knocked it out of the park, though.

  • Roots didn't screw up, he played the roll of the song.

  • @arzaic There is literally no way that that isnt a fucking huge cock up

  • Big fan of Roots, but it's clear he screwed this one big time. Must have been high.

  • I love this song so much but that rapper totally screwed up

  • primossssss la RECONTRACAGOOOOOOOOOO!

  • this is a great song but this twat just comes and doesn't even put any effort in, no wonder albarn didn't hire him out again

  • I wonder if he looks back on this and says "Dang, I screwed that one up..."

  • :) 

  • Ah I wish I could go to one of their concerts.

  • The fun part is that you actully come to see them live and you dont see them :D

  • they have to be on drugs man they have to. haha

  • why would u cry weirdo?

  • ugh i want to slap that rapper. if you're performing for the gorillaz, you get it right.

  • @Genniyah agreed. Pissed me off, lazy fuck. Id put my heart and soul into every word, he doesnt even say all the words.

  • @MSingleton93 hey i think he replaced some of the words with swear words, so they blocked out the sound. or maybe he didn't even say them like u said, i dunno...

  • goooooood live act.... tssssss peaceeout,

  • This was painful lol, at least Martina's part made up for Roots ..

  • who is that girl?

  • @mrjgrady512 Martina Topley Bird ;)

  • I started crying when I heard the lady singing on the album. Beautiful.

  • the rapper's timing was way off!!!

  • her voice sounds like its being modified while there playing all alone

  • @artkng11 there's just an effect on it.

  • Can it be the Rapper forgot the text? But the girl was awesome!

  • who is the girl

  • @artkng11 its noodle stupid ass

  • @j3llyb3anohu81 No it's not, it's a collaborator.

  • reminds me of massive attack

  • As if coming out in a fucking dress and falling all over himself isn't enough, he starts hitting on Topley-Bird, and then forgets all his fucking lyrics. What did they put in his tea?

  • @franka64 he was high and so was she. look at the performance in Manchester. They were both on point. Could be jetlag.

  • My God, the Gorillaz really know how to pick their vocalists

  • @Ahdaz1000 :P was that sarcastic?

  • @PacOrange9 I meant good by that comment.

  • pretty sure the guy is high on something

  • Roots and Martina Topley-Bird are hitting on each other hardcore.

  • it looks like the girl and the guy are challenging eachother.

  • holy balls! that black guy has a white persons hair!

  • @blackkeychucktown your point?

  • everyone sounded shaky but i guess thats normal when your in front of an audiance

  • who is the guy that raps

  • @evkin117 Roots Manuva

  • ???????huh?

  • Roots is just having a good time ya'll! Let him be! its nice to see some personality in some Live videos.

  • why is he laughing lol

  • roots manuva got fat !!

  • Didn't love this performance but i really like many of the versions from this concert, like the "el mañana" one, in this case, i think they performed with lack of interest.

  • i love them live man they always put on a good show

  • I find this song better on their Album

  • I love the recorded albums but... I'm so glad I didnt pay money to see the live show :(

  • The girl is Martina Topley Bird.

  • This is Gorillaz, the whole "virtual band" is cool, but this is where the music comes from. lets keep our heads on the ball

  • This is sick, they're live setup is nuts. I never thought they were a live band.

  • Woo, I'm funky.

  • The rapper is sick and so is the singer! He didnt forget the words he was waiting for her to sing! @MsNegrogato

  • Thurr is no noodles is thurr?

  • wow this is one hell of a live show if only i was there i can only imagine the sensation of smoking a zoopie and going to the show . this is real eccentric music . manuva is dope

  • what a tune!!! gotta love love the gorillaz and the masterfull roots manova!!! girls got a sick voice too!

  • what a tune!!! gotta love love the gorillaz and the masterfull roots manova!!! girls got a sick voice too!

  • allllllllll aloneeeeeeeeeeeee

    

  • Beautiful voice is beautiful.

  • I wish noodle, 2d & murdoc where real (not so much russel).

    Albarn wouldn't have dug such a hole for lives gigs that way...

  • @woodee2k8 Fucking racist, of course you don't want the black one to be real.

    Christ, people these days.

  • @noobzaa You're the racist for even suggesting that. Russel is the worste member of the band by a landslide. He drums. Not saying that drumming is hard but countless times has albarn/murdoc said that he could easily get replaced. Don't make such stupid shit up please.

  • @woodee2k8 why, "not so much russel", have you even read about him? if you did and were to actualy get to know the character you would sooo regret that. geezz.......that was stupid.

  • Why's Roots missing half the lyrics? Good performance but he sounds rather erratic.

  • I love that girls voice!

  • they honestly aren't even that bad live.

    i think you guys are all comparing it to the studio version wayyy too much.

    listen to it without comparing, and you'll probably think differently.

  • i FUCKING LOVE THE GORILLAZ!!!!

  • dude what happened at the rap part? he f*** it up

  • She sounds like a sheep getting stabbed in the neck.

  • @iMagicPixel lol hahaha

  • i wonder what he is on. he screwed this performance and damn talk about straining the voice shes just as bad, this was a sham to a real performance. shame shame

  • they fail live

  • wow her voice is nice

  • wow she sounds nice on her solo but she looks weird

  • @claysadventures She looks pretty good to me o-o

  • i feel sorry for the rapper...ahem, NOT! he really messed up didnt he?

  • @ITzHaZzA666 Not as bad as the guy that sung Dare during this concert lol

  • @iceman2792 lol i'll check it out, although i find it hard 2 belive that it can be any worse than the performance THIS guy put up!

  • Amazing!

  • Good

    But the rapper needs work

  • Haters

  • he's deffinately high

  • The black guy is rubbish

  • A tip for the rapper: Practice what you preach, and for gods sake learn the song and DONT FUCKING LAUGH ON STAGE!

    Unprofessional...

  • The girl is an amazing singer, but that was a little much vibrato teehee (but i can't sing worth crap so i shouldn't be saying anything.... ) eh nvm.

  • She's the fucking best under the SUN!!!!!

  • Lol roots looked like he came drunk as hell .

  • Woo, I'm funky

    lmao xD

  • Wow...they look really bored...wierd...

  • Yeah, this song requires way more energy than that.

  • Martina Topley Bird is awesome in this performance!!!!

  • @rox20rite45 Agreed.

  • roots is disgusting live

  • lol

  • I love how he skipped like half of the end of his part and then just started staring when her part started. Gorillaz studio versions are great, but this was just hilarious.

  • @kouxei  seems to me like they party alot that dude was running out of breath tahts why he skipped his lines

  • the girl is beautiful woooow!!!

  • The girl sings cool

  • @Nuts8769 It's Martina Topley Bird

  • @Nuts8769 the girl singing is Martina Topley-Bird youtube her song Sandpaper kisses

    it takes me to another planet

  • @krest9 moving on!!!!!!

  • let's just say Roots should stick to recordings.

  • I also think he was drinking before this and he started laughing because of that coat thingy

  • so her name is martina? just one question, why is dressed like that? its pretty, but i dont think i understand.

  • she was the girlfriend of Tricky. look at him and you will understand ;)

  • I'm guessing she has japanese heritage, as it looks kind of oriental style.

  • @Jobizzie

    it's just a performan ce. quit overanalyzing it

  • I`m guessing you have no clue about different cultures.

  • @JesusluvsMCR

    it's a perfomance

  • o stfu and enjoy

  • I am enjoying it, just think it's funny

  • "when they got these people." quick fact: Roots Manuva (the mc) & Martina Topley-Bird (the vocalist) who are performing here are the same two that appear on the album. & i'm pretty sure they know what they're singing...

  • Come and save the night!

    (refering to the lady who looked at the rapper)

  • 3:08 is SICK! The bassist is kicking it!

  • Comment removed

  • Man Roots messed up smh

  • what the hell you ruin the song!

  • That lady had an amazing voice.. Fuck even writing about that other guy.

  • she really does.. sound jus like the recording..she made up for him..lol

    he still kool tho..lol

  • so funny, the "Are you kidding me?" look the girl gives the dude

  • Even if they where hammered as hell, the performance was no less than facinating!

  • Now look up roots manuva wittness. and you will hear why damon wanted to work with this star.

  • wow Roots can't rap all live...he killed it.

  • dudes, the guy you are talking about is Roots Manuva and he is beyond reproach!

  • the guy was pretty terrible but the girl saved it

  • I bet at the end of that she was probably like d00d I totally just saved your ass xD

  • Lol shes just like noodle, in a way

  • from 2:08 to 2:10 she looks at him like " watch what class in entertainment is " she so saved his ass and that song !

  • @MsNegrogato Fucking idiot, have you ever bothered to actually listen the song??

    HE ISN'T SUPPOSE TO SING THAT PART IMBICEL

  • fail

  • the guy mucked it up but al lest the girl was ok

  • the girl is like lookin at the dude goin wtf you messin up the song now im gona have to sing my ass off to save our good name lol but realy dude has a horibl singin voic live

  • I love this concert

  • who goes to a dragonfoce concert...

  • hermosoo =D

  • cool =)

  • its sooo sad he tore it up on the album....

    Martina Topley-Bird is so awesome though.

    Love the album and saw the entire concert most of it was sooo sick even better live. but wat are you gonna do.

  • Who the freaking hell is the rapper?.... I hate to say this hes better then me but he freaking...well...GOOD GOD... The girl totally saved the day though..

  • i kno he freakin sucks he just ruined the whole song

  • roots manuva is actually an amazing artist but yea he had an off moment!

  • He fuckin skipped like 3 bars! You bastard! His verse was dope too! Ugh. Thank god The Girl Saved It.

  • Martine is SSSOOOOOOOOO COOOOOOOOLLLLLL! Black, english, japanese, white--who cares. She is brilliant! I could watch her all day. This song is about the VIBE. When the morning comes--it doesn't seem to say a lot to me---friggin' brilliant. Go buy Maxinequay and listen to her and Tricky..Cd is named after Trick'y mom who killed herself when he was 3--how's that for reality kids.

  • i love her voice. [:

  • Ha,ha,haaa, it's so funny how the first time they sang this they dit it whith no problem, but now they're super wasted! Didn't they learned anything from Shaun Ryder's performance? ;)

  • Huh, Roots screwed up so bad :| . I mean, this is no studio version, but it's like he didn't give a crap D< . But Martina's singing saved it ;3

  • Who's the girl?

  • i do like the gorilaaz. but they are one creepy band

  • is that roots manuva?

  • people you gotta understand what happens in a studio. You cant expect a mastersound sound live.

  • the sound in the live shows is pretty astounding. seansoned pros from madonna to u2 can't compete with the live production quality.

  • That's BS.

    This clip is a prime example of being lazy in a live performance and not giving a crap about how it sounds. Go to any show by bands such as Yes, or Rush, Queens of the Stone Age, even the Grateful Dead, they did not sound this dreadful live compared to their studio efforts.

  • look at the skill level's your comparing them to

  • aww maaan

    the drums are all wrong

    song instantly loses flow without that beat

  • wowo he fucked up so bad, he didnt give a shit :\ in manchester he tried better

  • it wasn't as bad as you guys are making out >.>  pretty close to studio standard really good

  • Finally someone said it. The beautiful look of martina mmakes everything better

  • what's the girl's name

  • god he sucked ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • god he fucked his part up

  • watd he do

  • he skipped a few verses. whatever though, that Roots Menuva's chill. that girl saved it though, beautiful voice.

  • i wish i coulda been there

  • Wow, I really love how said said

    "To the blow the brain out"

    I'm pretty sure if she didn't say that, that Roots wouldn't have said it clearly enough. Holy crap, he slurred through the whole song!

  • *She said
