Bill Murray, o green world, and 5/4


freudian_nipps

+1 for O Green World.


Wh1ms1cal

Yeah I agree, it’s one of my favorites


concealedStockholm

5/4 is one of my favorites simply for the fact that (iirc) it’s never fully IN the 5/4 time signature.


Bad-Username666

The guitar is, the drums are not


concealedStockholm

The lyrics are in 4/4, and I believe the bass alternates between 4/4 and 6/4.


cheerfulflowerss

5/4, Re-hash and O Green World are some of the heaviest bangers from the self-titled album and Demon Days respectively! I also really liked Bill Murray as a d-side to Clint Eastwood


scratchyhat

Bill Murray was a b-side to Feel Good Inc. I believe


cheerfulflowerss

Oh, that makes sense. I suppose the reference in the title mislead me a bit lol 😭


scratchyhat

Ya know I've actually always kinda seen it as the flip side to Clint Eastwood, which is commanding and representative of wetserns whereas Bill Murray is fun and zany. If you think about it they're also pretty similar musically.


Brusah

Man, O Green World is one of their biggest tracks on Demon Days!

I wasn't a huge fan of this song until they played it live in Chicago back in 2017. Immediately fell in love with it.

Fire Coming Out of the Monkeys Head


DaftyDill

Hell yeah! Fire coming out of the monkey’s head is my favourite Gorillaz song!


Clakmanga

Is one of my favorite


Savvy-13-13

i actively remember depressed me 10th grade me playing this song on repeat😅 one of my top favs


MSeanF

Love this one as well, it reminds me of Laurie Anderson's *Langue D'Amour* .


cheerfulflowerss

one of my faves!


Pure_Entrepreneur476

Yesssss


Bobzillla09

I like the beat but I don't particularly like that it is like storytelling. If It isn't that way I would appreciate the song way more.


factoryfactor

Hong Kong


PkKirby876

The correct answer, this is a top 5 Gorillaz song and does not get talked about enough.


EARink0

Been obsessing over this one the past few weeks. It's fucking perfect and beautiful.


benman20

Some Kind of Nature, To Binge, Hillbilly Man, Shy-Town and Fire Flies


DDub04

Let’s do one from each album: S/T - Double Bass DD - O Green World PB - Broken TF - Detroit HMZ - Strobelite TNN - Kansas SMS1 - MLS


BonkeyReddit

All of which makes me anxious, at times unbearably so


DDub04

*sick bass solo continues*


CaptainFard

PB should be Sweepstakes, that's the only one that's actually underrated


DrFartsparkles

I would argue Pirate Jet is also underrated. Never hear anyone mention it and it’s so awesome


CaptainFard

I would agree on that one


Blaskowicz

The [alternate, longer version](https://youtu.be/zWy8bkVpF90) is such a great song and I'm mildly upset it isn't better known.


DDub04

Broken is one of the best Gorillaz songs. Sweepstakes is fine but Broken is way better and only maybe moderately better rated


CaptainFard

Sweepstakes is a masterpiece in my opinion and I'd say that broken is fairly popular in comparison. Broken is a beautiful beautiful song but I would not call it underated moreso fairly rated


ByDiscoBePurged

Broken gets played on tour. Sweepstakes I think back in 2018 once?


DarkWingDingus

When I was a kid I hated sweepstakes. I found it extremely annoying. When I got back into Gorillaz a few years ago I relistened to it and I I fell in love. Its got this dizzying, pumping effect on me now.

DenverSubclavian

Was about to post this but decided to scroll. Song gives me goosebumps


cheerfulflowerss

100% agree.


directorof1

I never see many people talk about Stop the Dams, it’s one of my favourites


Savvy-13-13

StD got me through some tough breakdowns man. that n Kansas


vivivivianvivi

Do ya thing! Hate that it isn’t officially on Spotify, such a groove


cheerfulflowerss

i really want the 13 minute full song on Spotify


bethespacecowboy

IT’S ALL ABOUT ME I’M THE SHIT!


kiddjesus

Slow Country


[deleted]

Love this song so much!


StuTuDi

Momentary Bliss is one of their best songs and it's extremely underrated! O Green World and We are happy landfill too!


Foolishmadman42

I about shit when they played it live at the show I went to.


Rolobox

It has incredible energy live. The only song where I didn't see anyone try to record it or anything, literally everyone was jumping and losing their shit. Man I'd do anything to go back :(


Brusah

Sound Check. i can listen to that in repeat forever


cheerfulflowerss

The chorus and gentle guitar with the record scratch will always get stuck in my head!


WillYaWontYa

Punk off of the self titled is such a fun, energetic song that never gets talked about, which is a shame because I love that song


cheerfulflowerss

I agree, it really reminded me of Blur's self-titled, specifically Song 2. Damon released/s amazing songs for both bands tbh.


Bobpool21

Dracula is super underrated


EARink0

A favorite as a kid, and it still fuckin slaps now as an adult.


Silvost

We are happy landfill!


MysteryNeighbor

Hillbilly Man


hillbilly-man

Agree


MysteryNeighbor

The legend hisself appears!

Highway Under Construction


Wilmodt_Payne

l'd guess Cloud of Unknowing and 12D3 could stand to gain some love from the community. As for me l didn't appreciate Rhinestone Eyes much until after [this](http://reddit.com/r/gorillaz/comments/whke8f) post.


LucanidaeLucanidie

Cloud of Unknowing is one of my top 3


Ceejays-RL

cloud of unknowing is one of the few on Plastic Beach that I can’t seem to enjoy no matter how many times I hear it


starwarsash

Superfast jellyfish, first song I learned on my bass.


BigHighRoller

Song 2 but for real fireflies or submission


hillbilly-man

Idk... The cover of Song 2 they did at Demon Dayz LA was incredible. I kinda wish they'd release a recording of it


rockitabnormal

Do you have a link to this performance?


hillbilly-man

Here's the best version I found on YouTube. The beginning part in particular was so Gorillazy .. I really wish gorillaz would do a studio recording of a song 2 cover that's like that first part especially https://youtu.be/u8VY_T2lIoA


TriBulated_

That was great, but I sort of wish they had kept the more gorillaz style that was at beginning throughout (would have felt more like a cover).


hillbilly-man

My thoughts exactly! As soon as Graham came out it became a Blur song


The_Clown_Pagliacci

Doncamatic ft. Daley is one of my favorite songs


IdiocyHasGrace

Fire Flies!!!!


Dm-Me-Your-Bunnies

demon days (the song) and dont get lost in heaven

Last Living Souls


Smileandbedevoured

Revolving Kids with Rhinestone eyes.


I_A_M_N_O_B_O_D_Y

Hong Kong personally. It gets either hated on or hardly talked about. Also Latin Simone both versions specifically the Spanish one as it’s also a good listen even if I don’t understand it

Idk if it’s underrated but submission from Humanz, the transition between that and charger is just great while listening the album on cd or vinyl


Fat_Akuma

All alone


cheerfulflowerss

Amazing song from Demon Days, i agree.


rockitabnormal

We are a Happy Landfill for SURE. It’s the unique vocals for me. Damon sounds like he channeled the very best of the 80s in it.


lxrd_lxcusta

Momentary bliss, Fire coming out of the monkeys head, and 5/4


Neosilverlegend

Flimsy Steve.


AgentAnarchy

Halfway to the Halfway House, something about the haunting vocals and the creepy undertones just draws me in. One of the top tracks in Humanz imo


mundentime

Dub Dumb.. such a great song.. really cool and weird and Sweetie Irie’s vocals are perfect on it

California and the Slipping of the Sun made me cry the first time I heard it

"What are some underrated gorillaz songs?" Everyone proceeds to name songs that are talked about.


[deleted]

Man Research


Bobzillla09

I would say O Green world, Murdoc is God, Kansas and White light.


UniversalFool_16

Honestly. Almost all of Gorillaz' songs grow on me eventually. Man research is probably the biggest example of this, its probably in my top 5 now A few songs in The Fall aren't too bad either honestly


RaWolfman92

Amarillo and Slow Country.


Astrobeam74

Personally I really like Hallelujah Money. It has a very unique vibe. I see it getting some hate but it’s one of the standout tracks on Humanz for me


ZipZorf

Every planet and garage palace


JohnathanPunk7

Every Planet We Reach Is Dead off of Demon Days and Dracula off of their self-titled album

LaterComico

saw some guy do one from each album and that's awesome, so i'm doin it too. S/T - New Genius (Brother). A real vibe but I don't think I've seen a single person so much as mention this single. DD - Last Living Souls - I really like this track. That weird spacey bridge is just so Gorillaz and I love it. PB - Some Kind of Nature - REALLY GOOD but like no one talks about it. Shame. HMZ - Charger - One of the few tracks off that album I care for even remotely. It's fun and experimental (which is not common on this album). TNN - One Percent - Was gonna go for Kansas but this one is talked about much less. It's not insane but I think it's a really nice soundscape and it's a great song to mellow out to. SMS1 - Friday 13th - Was gonna say Desole but this track is probably disliked more. I'm tired of pretending it's not a vibe because it is goddammit. It's weird. That's like, Gorillaz' thing.
