Welcome to Gaia! ::

So, yesterday I finally downloaded "Mix 2" from Gorillaz-Unofficial, and I have to say I was....surprised. It's an interesting track, to be fair. I like it, but others might not, especially if you don't like your 2D sounding like nails scraping a chalkboard. Honestly, whatever Damon was using, I want it.

The beats on "Mix 2" remind me of older hiphop from the '90s, something Mary J. Blige might have used (only with a UK feel to it) It's been described as a "retarded" version of a rap song, though it's not like the rap equivalent of "Song 2."

So, anyway, discuss the song. Here's stuff I'd like to talk about
-Does this song have any value, or is it just an unfinished ditty? Is it meant not to have any value?
-What do you think the song means, if anything?
-Does the title, "Mix 2" have any significance?
-What are you doing with the cam, anyway?


And here are some lyrics for you-all to peruse. It's what was on G-Unofficial, slightly edited by me:
Ah, what you want with the town that you can't put your eye on
It's a train put out there and looking done
What you doing, sending sisters to the other side?
It's hard enough, it's hard enough
What you doing with the cam, what you doin with a cam
Why they're walkin' gives them any face
What you doing with the cam, what you can with a cam
Just blow it up, blow it up

It's easy
Come back,
true love
Every day, every day
it's easy,
Come back
Gone but
single, here now

Doing with a cam that you can't put down
Cos then you're walking
It's playing cool to get
But what you can't get a man can't forget
Because honestly, I'm a nice devil
What you doing with the cam that you can't believe?
I don't love myself, I call the child police
Oh, what you doing with the cam that you can't believe?
Just blow it up

It's easy
Come back,
true love
Every day, every day
it's easy
come back
Gone but
single, here now

I love it when Damon sings high like that. First thing I said when I heard it was, "What the hell was he smoking and where can I get some"
Honestly, I always though the chorus sounded more like:
It's easy,
Come back,
Turn left,
Nearer now, Clearer now.
It's easy,
come back,
Gone by,
See me now, Hear me now. XD

I liked it. A lot. But I couldn't take it seriously, I was giggling through the entire song... xd

Sista's and bro's all the way! cool

Ah, I loves that song. Don't worry, loves, when I become a famous celebrity (WHICH I WILL! I WILLL!!!!!1111oneone!!), I will walk right up to Damon Albarn at one of those parties celebrities go to, or at the drug rehab center, wherever he is, an ask him what th'lyrics are. But until I do that...

um. I thought he was...I dunno, like, meaning, would you do it with someone named Cam...Or that he's looking at a music video, an finking, "What are they doing wif tha' camera?"

I dunno...if there's a drug nicknamed "cam", an it's a painkiller, I'd prolly know it, but I've never heard of it. Maybe a "Cam"'s a type of drug dealer, and it'd mean, "Would you do drugs with a Cam..."

I fink...actually...it may be just nonsense. An all our theories will have gone t'waste...
