Gorillaz

Featuring: The Horrors

(Verse ?: The Horrors)
I fell into the waves, they crash and they break, and I feel like my body turned
I lie flight over a giant crane heading through the surf
Figures on a ship, rampant on a ship, how deep they are. how deep are
Your pockets and desires? how evil is your heart? I think I ruined the past, my god how long will it last?
These clouded feelings leave my body, myself

Gorillaz is a virtual band created by Damon Albarn of Britpop band Blur and Jamie Hewlett, co-creator of the comic book Tank Girl. The band is composed of four animated band Stuart “2D” Pot (vocals, keyboard), Murdoc Niccals (bass), Noodle (lead guitar and occasional vocals), and Russel Hobbs (drums and percussion). Murdoc was based on Keith Richards from a photo by David Bailey and 2D was based on a friend of Damon and Jamie’s.

The project began as an experiment and commentary on popular media. It was inspired by Hewlett and Albarn binge watching MTV when the two were housemates in London. Hewlett

If you watch MTV for too long, it’s a bit like hell – there’s nothing of substance there. So we got this idea for a cartoon band, something that would be a comment on that.
