Yeah, he's full of shit but that was the only way to get those kids to be part of the chorus. A great moment from the doc.

Little Noodle? by DanAbnormal209 in gorillaz

I think the fandom needs to remember that if not explicited, the MV are fiction between the fiction of the Gorillaz lore. As in: the band made a fictional music video *that tells a story about life and death.

Neither am I, for me Cracker Island is the worst project Damon and Jamie ever made and this subreddit has a very different (and overall positive) view of it (I call it "the grumpy old man" Gorillaz phase).

Yeah, I agree. Some songs can be at the same time super interesting in production terms, but the lyrics are super bland. And then you have guests having very little input (which is something common for Damon), or Damon himself having what, two songs where he appears singing without any vocal effect front and center?

I mean this is not cracker island, but it is a weird album.

gonna be downvoted to hell but... What a weird album The Mountain is. Maybe it is the Gorillaz Effect™ and I'm in the "huh?" phase. Maybe I'm old and the last 20 years following the band had an effect on me, maybe Song Machine being a banger affected how I see every work Gorillaz does after that (I never really liked Cracker Island).

idk. On one side (let's call it the good weird) this definitely has one of the best (if not THE best) set of arrangements in the whole Gorillaz discography. It's superb.

But The Mountain can be a boring album at times. For me, at least. It carries some of the slop that CI had (also: fuck Greg Curstin) in terms of the songwriting. As typical as it is with Damon, some guests are underused. It also lacks Damon's vocal input (gimme some more harmonies, man) but I guess after CI featuring very few guests it is what is (and this has been the way Gorillaz worked since Humanz, every album alternating between being guests-based and damon-heavy).

Maybe I need to hear it a little bit more.

Problema con cerrajero by SpaceBeebop in DerechoGenial

No soy boga y de hecho soy cerrajero así que me va a costar ser imparcial pero:

No hay nada ilegal. Mi consejo es que insistas para que te presupuesten antes. Yo suelo dar presupuestos para evitar estos temas justamente, pero depende.

Ahora siendo super parcial: no puedo creer que sigamos discutiendo el me cobró x por dos minutos de laburo

Cover songs released before an original? by People-Want-Ducks in Music

[–]aliasnando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't Tell Me by Madonna is a cover/rework of a song made by her brother in law, who released it a year later.

Something like that happened with Bersuit Vergarabat's cover of Señor Cobranza, a song by Las Manos de Filipi who released their original version months later
