This idea of 2D welcoming death is reinforced with the line, “Don’t stop the buck when it comes…”, where in other words, 2D is not asking for anything to interfere with his impending doom. 2D continues on to sing that he witnessed the death of his love and ever since then, he’s gone crazy and welcomed death (“I saw that day, Lost my mind, Lord, I’m fine, Maybe in time, You’ll want to be mine.”). Thanks to that person’s death, 2D was left alone, marking the warm summer season useless and dull.
GORILLAZ DEMON DAYS ALBUM CONTROVERSY HOW TO
“He just let me love in myself, Cause I do know love, From you that, Just died, yeah…” where these lyrics are really hard to crack due to just how misunderstanding they are, I can only assume that the person that taught 2D how to love has, in fact, died. He starts singing, “Summer don’t know me no more…”, possibly meaning that where the season of summer represents liveliness and warmth, he’s lost those emotions. Obviously since 2D is the lead singer, I’d have to assume that whatever he’s singing would represent his emotions. There isn’t much in the lyrics department to look at but there are some key lines here that could shed some light as to how the mood is. The lyrics have to be examined closer to understand what is truly going on. With a depressing sound and beat, the sudden turnaround of mood and tone is important in terms of the deeper meaning of the track itself. Whereas Albarn and Hewlett try to coax the audience into relaxing in Feel Good, El Manana delivers a state of tension and despair, even melancholy, in terms of the sound. finishes, and with that note totally pulls a 180 in terms of mood. Either way, El Manana is one of the most amazing songs to have come my way.Įl Manana starts off right where Feel Good Inc. There are many interpretations as to what the song and/or the video of the track could mean. Supposedly in El Manana, the fictional guitar player of Gorillaz “dies”. It has a darker sound than the rest of the tracks on the album, and has a huge significance in terms of the “plot” of the band’s story. It’s the fourth single (along with Kids With Guns) on the album, and although reaching less prominence among its audience relative to other singles, I still love this track. One of my favorite songs by Gorillaz, straight from the Demon Days album, is El Manana.
