This was amazing. I grew up as a casual listener of Gorillaz but never picked up on the Blur, Ghibli, or Beatles connections/inspirations in their work. It's also fascinating because music seems to be one of the few media where artists can still protect their privacy/anonymity and 'death of the author' in their work.

@@scarygarey3271 just because they love the Beatles doesn't mean they write good songs. They have about 10 good songs, the rest of theor discography is so boring, uninventive and repetitive. The Beatles, Gorillaz (and Blur) were always trying to develop and change; they never stagnated. Hence Oasis r nothing like the Beatles. They wrote good hooks occasionally; but ran out of them pretty quickly so just reused them again and again. Half of Definitely Maybe just uses riffs from T-Rex.

@edwardbrumbaugh8461 Жыл бұрын

I see it as the complete package. With stellar production values on both ends. If it was just a comic or a series cartoon without the band tie in it wouldnt have had anywhere near the longevity. That said the music is totally given way more rent space in peoples head with the ability for people to instantly recognize the style and art and that they were watching a Gorillaz video. But cmon man their music hits have over a billion views. Compare numbers on audio only tracks to the numbers o n just the standalone shorts of the characters or the amount of hits on artwork searches. Artbook sales etc... and there is no way you can say the gorillaz would be anywhere near the draw without the music. Just like damon was pretty sucessful with music already w blur it wouldnt be a pop culture phenom without Jamie
