This night changed my life. Not only was I introduced to a whole new world I never knew about (animated music videos weren't as common back then), two of my favorite bands, but the final video of the night literally awakened me. Seeing a video like that changes a person (especially when you're only 11).

From my (pre-)teens, I've always known about Gorillaz, but I never got into them until last month, when I finally decided to start listening to them. My younger sister, on the other hand, strongly believes that she had seen the "Clint Eastwood" video on TV before.
