Murdoc: Want something done, do it your bloody self...

And where do you want to go in your portal, Mr Niccals? Murdoc: Where DON'T I want to go! Actually, don’t really fancy Stoke-on-Trent. But other than that, world’s my oyster.

What's going on with Stuart's eyes? They look almost normal... Murdoc: Great question, Murdoc. Well, he’d been playing that thing for nine hours straight. I bought it for him as a heartfelt apology, cheer the lad up. How I was I to know it would send everyone doolally.

i love how 2-Ds eyes only turn white when he is happy or away from Murdoc. it really shows how Murdoc effects his mood.

And WTF is up with Noodle? How comes she keeps getting younger? Murdoc: Strong moisturiser. Nah, it’s some freaky new power. Her style mutates each time she hears a banging tune. We should probably call a doctor, but she seems happy so why bother.

Tell me, Murdoc, why did you need an inflatable Pamela doll to construct this marvel? Murdoc: Pamela is my travel companion. Not that it’s any of your BUSINESS.

Murdoc: Allo you lot. Here I am. Fashionably late, as per. Any Qs? If so make it quick, got places to be.

This man is 54 years old still making hits

Obvious question numero uno: What’s in the box, Murdoc? Murdoc: Can’t you read? Literally says it on the front. It’s my masterpiece - my ORGONE ACCUMULATOR! That lot can keep their pathetic little crevice, I’m in the driving seat now.

Murdoc: Well I don't know about you, but I think I've been absolutely terrific tonight. Answered a wide range of my own questions. Even replied to a few of yours, you lucky lot. Right, I better go and check on 2D. He probably needs a new ice pack for those knackered thumbs. LATERS.

2:30 Noodle as a Peanuts character is absolutely adorable

I love how Noodle is absolutely star-struck when Q starts rapping. Me too Noodle, me too.

I like how despite Russel not playing the drums, he's still doing percussion for the beat.

This is all extremely fascinating, Murdoc, but what actually IS an orgone accumulator? Murdoc: Bloody hell. An orgone accumulator is a device that accumulates orgones, obviously. Keep up!

Cool how Russel is still percussion here, he's just playing the punching bag lol

0:13 "alrighty.... *Dances cutely*"

2005: it's coming up, it's coming up, it's coming up.... 2020: I'm stressing out, I'm stressing out, I'm stressing out...

I only got it. Russel is still playing a role of a drummer in the clip. He provides the "beat".

I like that Russel punches the bag to the beat.

2D is projecting some powerful stress vibes and Noodle picked up on it, tried to interrupt that in her own way.

gorillaz is casually multi-cultural: they've got white, black, Asian and of course, green.

Everybody: theorizing about the music video Me: hey thats peanuts noodle 2:31

i love the way russel’s punches make the beat cause he’s still the drummer of the band, it’s a cool detail

ScHoolboy’s rapping skills were so good that they caused Noodle to change artstyles EDIT: They actually WERE! As it turns out, Noodle has the ability to change artstyles when she hears music she likes!

murdoc really is getting greener with each music video

What are the Gorillaz doing under quarantine? Russel: Working out Noodle: Vibing 2D: Retro gaming Murdoc: Building portals to Hell and most likely planning to take over the world

Everyone saying 2020 is so terrible, just remember... *We have Noodle as a Peanuts character*

2:45 Noodle literally teleported out of the room when ScHoolboy said he's over 30 lmaoo

I love how russel only hits the bag to the drumbeat, he's still the drummer even without the set

Even when he isn't actually drumming, Russel's still the drummer

I love how Gorillaz is just having a conversation with murdoc in the comments

The PACMAN machine says "Melt It's Face" what a throwback to the animations :D For those who aren't aware, back when og MTV still played music videos, the Gorillaz came out with a handful of funny animations to give the characters personality and depth beyond the actual music videos. One of which, Murdoc melts the face of an eel while wearing just his underwear... You're welcome

Facts: Gorillaz songs gets better the more you listen to them.

Noodle: *actually ages* 2-D: “N O.”

I still cant get over how grown up Noodle looks... I cant see her as anything but the little girl when Gorillaz first started out.

Just realised how reminiscent of spirit house this is with everyone doing their vices/addictions 2D loses himself in video games Murdoc in the joy/shame whichever he truly recieves it as of isolation and deviancy, noodle texting and being social media active and Russel is a very fit man compared to his previous illustrations, he's come far with his body but he's obviously using it as a massive relief by the determination and the last punch

People: What instrument do you play? Russel: It's... complicated.

Evolution of gorillaz: 2-D: is 42 but hasn’t aged Murdoc: transforms into a pickle Russel: gets musclier Noodle: ages like a normal person

I love the fact that Murdoc built a cyborg carbon copy of Noodle and programmed a drum machine to replace Russel... And then goes and draw a "retina scanner" with crayon and call it a day.

Fun Fact: According to Murdoc, when in the studio, Noodle's "style mutates each time she hears a banging tune." note how he said *each*... This means it has happened both before and after this video...

The fact that Russle is boxing to the beat

This is the chillest existential crisis song ever.

This song is utter gold, has some serious early 2000s gorillaz energy

I can’t get over how this was 2 years ago I still remember squealing over 2d’s little dance

I'm 70% sure Murdoc doesn't want to come out because he's afraid Russel will beat his ass again.

Peanuts Noodle is the most cursed/cute thing we’ll see in a while

Can we just talk about how hard this whole project slaps so far.

Russel on that punchbag is probably the most active I’ve ever seen him in a Gorillaz music video - the vast majority of the time he’s sitting down, either sleeping or looking as though he’s contemplating life.

Therapist: “2-D with pupils isn’t real, he can’t hurt you.” 2-D with pupils: 1:11

Someone in the live chat said "omg murdoc is so sexy" and it's keeping me up at night.

2-D: Starts singing. Russel: *Unintentional drums*

I swear to god it takes me a couple years to fully appreciate a song, im back and im more in love

At this point, we still need an animated gorillaz show

2D: *having fun* The rest of Gorillaz: "Peace was never an option."

When a Gorillaz song sounds like a banger immediately after the first listen rather than after multiple listens, you know it is REALLY good

I love how Gorillaz is never really repetitive

I like how when Murdoc exits his place his eyes adjust to the light, they put so much detail into these animations!

2d's eyes is returning, But russel can't have his *EEL* back

“Song machine returns in September” well at least it’s shorter than their hiatus after The Fall lol

I love how the moment noodle realises that 2D has been on the pac man cabinet for aparently 10 hours, she just turns on creative mode and warps away from Q

I come back to watch 2D excitedly bounce over the Pac-Man machine daily

Therapist: Charlie Brown Noodle isn't real, she can't hurt you Charlie Brown Noodle: 2:32

Song: About falling into a depressive episode and burning out on things you once enjoyed Comments: *yO NOODLE KINDA HOT THO*

Fun fact: This IS Damon Albarn’s current ACTUAL studio being used in this video! 😅😁

2d ascended so much he made himself some pupils

The fact that they can deliver songs of this quality 19 years after their debut is astounding

"Gorillaz returns in September" Me: I waited for Plastic Beach 5 years, i can wait now

can we just appreciate the vocals on this though, like dam, i didnt know 2d's voice could go that deep

2D saying "alllriighty :D" and then bouncing excitedly to play pacman is just pure dopamine for me

2D: * enjoys himself for 15 seconds and isn't depressed * reality itself: "wait, that's illegal."

seeing Gorillaz and their collab artists together is surreal. It's almost like they're real in a way, it's quite funny seeing cartoon characters "in real life"

Did you remember when noodle was just a Tinny kid in a box?

2D: Videogame addict Murdoc: Quarantine himself Russel: Rocky Balboa Noodle:Charlie Brown Good fact: we get to see their house Sad fact: SEPTEMBER NOO

Has nobody ever realized that Russel has been getting into shape. He looks better than phase one.

0:28 I love how it says "Phantom tollbooth" on the wall

2D: gaming Noodle: chillin with Q Russell: boxing Murdoc: C L O S E T

I've really enjoyed how Jamie's art style has progressed over the years.

"Everywhere I go, I don't know where I am." Is that a reference to how Pac Man is always in a maze, and, from his point of view of the game, he doesn't know if ghosts are around the corner?

I love how Noodle seems unaffected by being eaten in the game yet she's the one who unplugs it.

is nobody going to talk about how freaking adorable noodle is as a peanuts character

2017 Murdoc:THE BATH 2020 Murdoc:THE CLOSET

My body is ready Edit: It wasn't ready

Noodle as a Charlie Brown style is a thing I never knew I wanted.

“Plus 30 and still movin’, im closer to live right?” *Noodle immediately turns and looks, probably realising she’s turning 30 this year* yeah. me too, Noodle.

Noodle stops 2D from having a gaming moment when she spends almost the entire video on the phone We live in a society

The music video is about 2D replacing his addiction to pain killers with an addiction to pac-man.

I once saw a post the said "guest rapper on a gorillaz song: been in ends since ten kickin product round the bend, diagnosed with scoliosis, mum died of tuberculosis - damon albarn on the chorus: ohhhhhh flimsy steve, where have you been, what have you seen" and I feel like this song is a pretty good example of that

Desolè:”Tryna hold on to you” Aries:”I feel so isolated without you” PAC MAN:”When I was sad I fell for you”

*It’s nice to see that they’re doing fine in quarantine.*

I like the theory that 2D never had the machine plugged in in the first place

Today this masterpiece is already three years old!!! I just can't believe it! over time, the song seems to only get better. how I adore her... I've been listening to this since I was quarantined. this song, and indeed this album keeps a lot of my memories... I miss those times :(

Me: "where's my old man???" *sees Murdoc in ugly leopard underwear* Me: "THERE IS MY OLD MAN"

Breaking news: an adorable 42 year old man steals fans' hearts just by dancing in front of a PacMan game

Love the part where noodle looks like a peanuts character

2:20 noodle fangirling💀

Gorillaz: *"Song Machine returns in September"* Fans: *_We're_** gonna do what's called a pro-introvert move*

I love how Noodle is the only one whose Appearance reflects her Age, 2D Looks barely 30, Russell looks like hes in his early 20s, and Murdoc is murdoc

Remember when Noodle was just a tiny little girl? Our girl is all grown up ;-;

You can freak me out You can throw me in the lion pit You can borrow my hands And tell me I'm not here I'm a mad Pac-Man Livin' in a leveled world Everywhere I go I don't know where I am You can call me cracked You can call me mad and stifled You can hold my hand Sail me into bathing light Everybody knows When I was sad, I fell for you Everywhere I go No stressin' out, no stressin' out No stressin' out, no stressin' out, stressin' out You can hide your head You can throw me in the lion pit You can borrow my days And tell me I'm not blue Everybody knows When I was sad, I fell for you Everywhere I go I don't know where I am No stressin' out, no stressin' out No stressin' out, no stressin' out No stressin' out, no stressin' out No stressin' out, no stressin' out No stressin' out, no stressin' out No stressin' out, no stressin' out No stressin' out, no stressin' out No stressin' out Uh, how can I trust truth? Uh, when I ain't got nothin' to sell I shattered my thoughts to get out my shell Uh, why would I hold my tongue to tuck in my tails? Ayy, can't dream if my ego is broke, nah The jokes that try to find the answer to nope (uh) My type of drive, you can't buy this shit You got a heart but it don't beat like this I had a spark, then my mind went trip Create the wave so the vibe all mix I'm a mad Pac-Man Livin' in a leveled world Yo, I been at the top of the top Fell from the ceiling before I fail 'Cause I needed to grow, Bruce Lee, royal with the glow Uh, walked on the edge, fuck tryna dream in the bed 'Fore I die on these meds, niggas gon' die on the feds 'Fore I make it to jail, prolly put one in the head Fuck the judge and the prosecutor for hangin' me dead Plus thirty and still movin', I'm closer to live, right? Closer to live, right? All the trauma from past never taught me to fear heights Normal to fly now, can't be stuck in the red lights Take flight, the life gon' bloom for the Black Knight Keep the peace, no Buddhist, got the whole hood boomin' I'm like a Crip how I stewed it, you on your ass, stuck, stupid You makin' we look bad, I rock the beat, won't crash I had to fill my bag, I had to hide my stash You know the cops' lights flash, I had to clear my dash I represent my flag, I gave the hood my last Every full-grown minute, I had to change my image The brain don't got limits, you think a mill' mean winnin' Pigs out here skinnin', your soul ain't authentic You died and still ain't livin'

Nobody talking about how Noodle became a “Peanuts” character.
