I'm gonna be honest here. I don't like it. If they wanted to do a chart-topping song, they could have done something better than this. Sounds too poppy and there are a million tracks that sounds like this. Plus, i thought Daley sounded like a woman. The instrumental part is great though, love the trumpets at the beginning. And i wonder how this would have turned out if it was sang comletely by Damon. Oh, and there's a poll at G-U about how would you rate this song. Seeing the results, you can clearly see the separation of the fandom right in the middle. Some love it and some hate it.

Judging by the storyboard, it will be. Same thing happened with On Melancholy Hill in Coachella, they showed the animatic storyboard/animatic from the song and two months later, the video was released. It's not Plastic Beach (though i don't know what did showed as a visual. Maybe some video of the island like in the Orchestral Intro?) I'll give you five more chances (Clue: It's not from this phase).- The official Gorillaz Thread
The Rhinestone Eyes video will be great. And a great choice for single too. Here's some images and news: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ah8yWm0i51o&feature=player_embedded]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ah8yWm0i51o&feature=player_embedded[/ame] Will give a cookie whoever guess from what song does this visual belong. Setlist (new songs added, they rock my socks!!!): Orchestral Intro Welcome To The World of the Plastic Beach 19/2000 Last Living Souls O Green World Stylo On Melancholy Hill Rhinestone Eyes Dirty Harry Superfast JellyFish Empire Ants Tomorrow Comes Today El Mañana White Flag Kids With Guns Glitter Freeze Dare To Binge Plastic Beach Encore: Cloud of Unknowing Feel Good Inc.

While searching through GameFAQS, i found this: It's getting good publicity.- The official Gorillaz Thread
I was also surprised about the world tour announcement. Considering the financial situation EMI is facing, it was really weird. I hope the us tour let them sell a lot of PB copies. It's already out of the Billboard 200 and it hanging on a thin line on the UK charts. The only supporting market was the Japanese one (Stylo reached at number 5 on the Japan Hot 100). Plastic Beach got strong debut showing, i'll give you that. The following sales were the problem. They really need to hit it off big with the next single: -It could be Superfast Jellyfish, has some nice humor in the lyrics plus it contains a catchy tune. -Or Rhinestone Eyes. Even though the single has not been officialy released yet, it's going good on American Radio, recieving a lot of airplay by commercial and alternative stations, which to me is really impressive.- The Damon Albarn thread.
It's some sort of book. The seller told me it had around 80 to 100 pages.- The Damon Albarn thread.
So, while i was searching through the net, i found this: http://articulo.mercadolibre.com.uy/MLU-19021581-blur-letras-fotos-fichas-para-tus-cds-_JM Is this official? Can anyone confirm this to me?- The official Gorillaz Thread
Mos Def is going to perform at two other dates but he's in some theater thing and takes months. And Lou, well he's really not going to commit to every other date. He's doing some projects so he will be busy during the rest of the tour.- The official Gorillaz Thread
NY fans will be lucky: Mos Def and Lou Reed will be present.- The official Gorillaz Thread
B-Sides are really awesome too, like Hong Kong, Left Hand Suzuki Method and People. Oh guess what, i bought FIFA 11 for the Xbox 360 today. When i'm on the menu screen, Rhinestone Eyes starts playing. Good addition to the soundtrack i might say :).- The official Gorillaz Thread
BTW, Gorillaz won two awards at the BT Digital Music Awards: Artist of the Year and Best Artist Promotion, according to a G-U user: http://www.gorillaz-unofficial.com/phpbb3/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=24318&start=15- The official Gorillaz Thread
HOLY S***!! 19-2000!!!!!! IT SOUNDS AWESOME!!!!- The Damon Albarn thread.
(Although i'm a dude) I like it, there were cool demos. You can really see the evolution from "I Need A Gun" to "Dirty Harry".- The official Gorillaz Thread

Some new and great images of the inside of Jamie's studio, Zombie Flesh Eaters: And a new Damon interview with the National Post: http://arts.nationalpost.com/2010/09/27/its-about-to-get-real-for-damon-albarn-and-gorillaz/ There is lots of exciting news revealed in the interview, including:- New/updated visuals for the tour, 19-2000 will be played at N.Y., maybe at other dates, Damon plans to record additional material on the tour (in a studio setting) to accompany / go with / supplement unreleased material from the Plastic Beach sessions (though nothing is stated about how this may see a release). I'm thrilled actually.- The official Gorillaz Thread
You know what that picture reminds me? Good ol' Phase One days. It's got the attitude from that phase.- The Blur Thread
This maybe weird... but i love the Trimm Trabb version in the Think Tank tour: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0m_rBNuhoY]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0m_rBNuhoY[/ame]- The official Gorillaz Thread
Sub-Division Club shouldn't have to be invented in the first place, it was just a quick move to get more people to be directed to PB. Seriously, if they wanted pre-sale tickets, they could easily put it in the G-Club. Other thing: A lot of the people bought the Experience Edition for two things: -DVD -Extra Online Content The initial content was good: you got 4 Roundhouse that weren't aired on TV, a digital booklet and a 3D Game.By now you think that they will update the section with new content. However, i'm devasted seeing that the Sub-Divisioners are getting a lot of stuff and i don't get even a goddamn thing. Wasn't that the whole point for the Experience Edition? The special things that came with it? Well then give me my special things. Man, i know Zombie Flesh Eaters are small and don't got a lot of people. But there's a simple solution: hire new people. If the initial people can't update the Beachsite properly, new staff could be the solution. Jamie can do it, it's simple.- The official Gorillaz Thread
Well, for once i kinda have to agree on that phrase. The lack of any good surprises that were present in the last phases and the whole treatment to the fans (which is seriously a flaw in this phase) left them with that taste. It's not that they endiose a person more than another. It's just that they can't really trust the management this time. And yes, i want to see the next songs. Here's the name of some of them: -Leviathan -A Very Dark night -Crashing Down -Apple Cards -Sloped Tropics- The Damon Albarn thread.
Don't know if they allow signatures in here, but if you want to use it in another forum, i made this one:- The official Gorillaz Thread
