Songwriter: Damon Albarn

Producer: Gorillaz

Why can't you be near?
Never one would appear
Where do we go from here, where do we go?
If the last one isn't there
And it's all gone
But if the last one wasn't there
It'd all be wrong

Sometimes you turn around
Sometimes you're lost but not found
Where do we buy the day, when we go?
If the last one isn't there
And it's all gone
But if the last one wasn't there
It'd all be wrong

Gorillaz

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.
