why did this never get a music video! it's would of been the best one

Fun fact: The lyrics "Thats electric-tric-tric!" Actually came from an old demo song named "Electric Shock"

Fun fact: murdoc is actually the sixth horseman of the apocalypse

Also that wicked "electric-tic-tic-tic..." instrumental satisfies a weird itch in my brain I never knew I had

"Your love like rhinestones" If u don't know, rhinestones are fake diamonds...

*that's electric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric...*

is it just me or does the green tone give a perfect vibe for this song?

Lyrics! [Verse 1] I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away When the paralytic dreams that we all seem to keep Drive on engines 'til they weep With future pixels in factories far away So call the mainland from the beach All parties now washed up in bleach The waves are rising for this time of year And nobody knows what to do with the heat Under sunshine pylons, we'll meet While rain is falling like rhinestones from the sky [Instrumental Break] (Uh, mm) Uh Mmm [Verse 2] I can't see you now my heart is frozen All the verses and the corrosion Have been after native in my soul I prayed on the immovable Yet clinging to the atoms of rock Seasons see adjustment signs of change I can't see now, she said, "Taxi" Now that light is all I can take This dawn brings strange loyalties and skies I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away See pop shows near New York Get tickets as low as $145 [Chorus] (Here we go again) That's electric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric (Uh) That's electric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric [Verse 3] Helicopters fly over the beach Same time every day, same routine A clear target in the summer when skies are blue It's part of the noise when winter comes It reverberates in my lungs Nature's corrupted in factories far away [Chorus] (Here we go again) That's electric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky (Uh) That's electric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric With future pixels in factories far away (Here we go again) That's electric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky (Uh) That's electric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric-tric With future pixels in factories far away (Here we go again)

Imagine if it was fully animated, that would be *MAD*

All these comments complaining about how annoying the nagito edits are have now ironically became equally as annoying

Reminder: it's okay for new people to like this song because music is meant to be heard. Just appreciate the song and don't make it only be about an edit

何度聴いても良いなあ

I don't know why this song gets better every time I hear it

*Cyborg Noodle:* GUNS GUNS GUNS *Russel:* Eating fish and depression. *Murdoc:* Not seducing the viewers for once. *2D:* Being scared. *Noodle:* I leave the band for two months and look at what happened...

The lyrics: I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away When the paralytic dreams that we all seem to keep Drive on engines 'til they weep With future pixels in factories far away So call the mainland from the beach All parties now washed up in bleach The waves are rising for this time of year And nobody knows what to do with the heat Under sunshine pylons, we'll meet While rain is falling like rhinestones from the sky I got a feeling now my heart is frozen All the verses and the corrosion Have been after native in my soul I prayed on the unmovable Yeah, clinging to the atoms of rock Seasons, the adjustments Times have changed I can't see now, she said "taxi" Now that light is so I can take This storm brings strange loyalties and skies I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away Here we go again That's electric That's electric Helicopters fly over the beach Same time every day, same routine A clear target in the summer when skies are blue It's part of the noise when winter comes It reverberates in my lungs Nature's corrupted in factories far away Here we go again That's electric Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky That's electric With future pixels in factories far away Here we go again That's electric Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky That's electric With future pixels in factories far away Here we go again

I cannot describe the feeling of listening to this song in the early hours of the morning, when my room is pitch black, apart from the red dot on my tv. The tiny red dot is the only thing my eyes have to focus on, and it starts to drift around. It almost looks like im looking at another planet or star from far away whilst floating through the black void of space. Sometimes, i swear i can make out the details of the surface of said planet or star...

Funny story, I haven’t seen a single comment about the Nagito edit, or a single comment complaining about the Nagito edit. Literally all I see are people complaining about people complaining.

No way was this song made 11 years ago, this is the best song I've heard.

This music is like a wine. The older it is the better it is

I honestly think that a storyboard fits the song better than an actual video.

This could've be the best gorillaz video ever

If you actually ignore the Nagito edit and listen to the song, it's so worth it. Like hell, when I first heard my friends hear it, I played it for years. In total, I've being listening to it for 6 years.

Just a friendly reminder... that MURDOC wrote this song, and the whole FRICKIN album.

I don't know why but the story of Plastic Beach just stuck with me ever since I've discovered the album and the lore (never been a Gorilaz fan). There's something so deeply personal about this faze. No more care free rock star mundanity. It's time to face their fears, be as vulnerable as ever. There's such a painful beauty in this vulnerability filled with fear and hope.

My little cousin likes to listen to Gorillaz with me and this is one of her favorites and she calls it the "that's electric song". She's so cute.

its all fun in games until you realize rhinestones are *fake* diamonds..

i love the artwork in this video , i wish there was an interview with the artist and how they came up with this story

Fun fact: in chronological order, the three songs, stylo, on melancholy hill, and rhinestone eyes, are the three songs that set the story of the journey to plastic beach and every song after rhinestone eyes was (by the story) recorded at plastic beach

POV:your re-listening to this banger and scrolling through the comments and have no idea what a nagito edit is

This song hits hard during the night time in a dark room...

Damn its been so long, its about to reach 100m and still listening on repeat

Jamie Hewlett did such a great job with the storyboard i cannot imagine the frustration of it being cut by the studios by fear of not making enough money.

who gives a damn where people came from?? people are appreciating the song, thats all that matters.

At the end of the song, there is a voice said "here we go again". They know the song was so good that we would play it in loop. I guess we all simple and have good taste

Just watched the film in theaters yesterday. It just amazing. This song remembers me to my uncles that passed away at the age of 15. He showed to me interstella a long ago and that's why I love DP ❤️

Still nice to come back after a couple years and the song still holds up

Rhinestone Eyes, Clint Eastwood and Feel Good Inc. were the very first songs I heard from Gorillaz. So many years have passed and I still love them.

BLUEAKRASIA JUST APOLOGISED TO GORILLAZ BC OF ALL DANGANRONPA FANS COMMENTING HERE PLS

2:30 fav part

For how chill this song is, the crowd went mental for it. I'm pretty sure I saw Damon tear up when we sang the tune not even the words. that was the best concert I've ever been to. Good times

RIP PLASTIC BEACH 2010-2020 :(

[Verse 1] I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away Where the paralytic dreams that we all seem to keep Drive on engines till they weep With future pixels in factories far away So call the mainland from the beach Your heart is now washed up in bleach The waves are rising for this time of year And nobody knows what to do with the heat Under sunshine pylons, we'll meet While rain is falling like rhinestones from the sky [Chorus] (Uh) (Mmmmm) [Verse 2] I can't see you now my heart is frozen All the bowses and the growses Have been abstinated in my soul I prayed on the immovable Yet clinging to the atoms of rock Seasons see adjustment signs of change I can't see now, she said, "Taxi" Now that light is all I can take This dawn brings strange loyalties and skies I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away [Chorus] (Here we go again) That's electric (Uh) That's electric [Verse 3] Helicopters fly over the beach Same time every day, same routine A clear target in the summer when skies are blue It's part of the noise when winter comes It reverberates in my lungs Nature's corrupted in factories far away [Chorus] (Here we go again) That's electric Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky That's electric With future pixels in factories far away (Here we go again) That's electric Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky That's electric With future pixels in factories far away (Here we go again)

Thank you Gorillaz! This song fills me with so much *_hope._* I'm really *_lucky_* to have found it.

y'all don't talk about jamie's incredible drawing skills enough

Lyrics: I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away When the paralytic dreams that we all seem to keep Drive on engines 'til they weep With future pixels in factories far away So call the mainland from the beach All parties now washed up in bleach The waves are rising for this time of year And nobody knows what to do with the heat Under sunshine pylons, we'll meet While rain is falling like rhinestones from the sky I got a feeling now my heart is frozen All the verses and the corrosion Have been after native in my soul I prayed on the unmovable Yeah, clinging to the atoms of rock Seasons, the adjustments Times have changed I can't see now, she said "taxi" Now that light is so I can take This storm brings strange loyalties and skies I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away Here we go again That's electric That's electric Helicopters fly over the beach Same time every day, same routine A clear target in the summer when skies are blue It's part of the noise when winter comes It reverberates in my lungs Nature's corrupted in factories far away Here we go again That's electric Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky That's electric With future pixels in factories far away Here we go again That's electric Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky That's electric With future pixels in factories far away Here we go again

pov: you are the guy who didnt get here from tik tok

Underrated 🗿

I feel kind of upset that this was one of their last big parts of the story, since after all of this they gave up on the plan and decided to make everything go back to normal days 7 years later in Humanz, I just feel like there could have been so much more. phase 2-3 where my favorite (Demon days-Plastic beach).

Murdoc and cyborg noodle: **shoots boogeyman** Boogeyman making an army: *_I'm gonna do whats called a pro-gamer move_*

I feel like 2D has become like that normal guy who's caught in the middle and has no idea whats going on but just goes along with it anyway cause he's got no other choice lol.

Somebody who knows how to use blender and isn't afraid to infringe on copyright should totally try to finish this

the gorillaz story NEEDS TO BE A MOVIE Edit: Why tf is this comment suddenly blowing up, I typed this like 3 years ago 2nd edit 09/31: apparently I predicted it or something

i hate that they scrapped it. i hope one day it becomes a full animation. there's always phase four.

It's incredible that no matter how much a Story Board it is, it manages to give it a charm and a unique style, it manages to be better

0:47 the best part

I remember when this video first came out I was mad that it was only a storyboard since they wouldn't fund the animated version. Now the storyboard lives in my head as the definitive version of the video and I wouldn't have it any other way, just Jamie's visual storytelling and Damon's music.

I don’t understand how people slept on this and it only became popular _now_ Also, don’t be toxic to newer listeners, they’re discovering the same gem you’re listening to. If anything, it should be celebrated that even their older music is still popular to this day.

1:35 when the background “ohhh” kicks in gets me every time! It just feels so powerful!

I Remember this From Pes 2011 Classic

I'm laughing at my past self because I legitimately thought it said "I'm a scary doggo on a tower"

I saw this song live with my mom, for my birthday. It was my first concert, and it was amazing. Thanks gorillaz. I love you ❤️

Something deep inside kinda makes me happy that it was scrapped and it's just the storyboard. Somehow it fits for the mood(?) of the song.

Fun fact: The thing on the boogieman's mask is not his nose. On the real soviet mask he was based on, it was placed on the forehead and was used to rub off the glasses when they steam up while wearing the mask. This provides visibility without having to take off the mask.

The fact this was made 11 years ago and is still better than 80% of music nowadays is insane

Getting into Gorillaz recently, i'm loving these songs.

I was always confused about that section with the dudes on the horses until I remembered that the gas mask dude was a rejected horseman of the apocalypse.

I still can't believe I found this masterpiece 5 yrs ago randomly

Who else is revisiting this video after seeing the lost chord?

LYRICS I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away When the paralytic dreams that we all seem to keep Drive on engines 'til they weep With future pixels in factories far away So call the mainland from the beach All parties now washed up in bleach The waves are rising for this time of year And nobody knows what to do with the heat Under sunshine pylons, we'll meet While rain is falling like rhinestones from the sky I got a feeling now my heart is frozen All the verses and the corrosion Have been after native in my soul I prayed on the unmovable Yeah, clinging to the atoms of rock Seasons, the adjustments Times have changed I can't see now, she said, "Taxi" Now that light is so I can take This storm brings strange loyalties and skies I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower That you made with plastic power Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away Here we go again That's electric That's electric Helicopters fly over the beach Same time every day, same routine A clear target in the summer when skies are blue It's part of the noise when winter comes It reverberates in my lungs Nature's corrupted in factories far away Here we go again That's electric Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky That's electric With future pixels in factories far away Here we go again That's electric Your love's like rhinestones falling from the sky That's electric With future pixels in factories far away Here we go again Source: Musixmatch

"Stop with that I didn't listen to Gorillaz before" Yes you did

Normal people: "rhinestone from the sky" F1 fan:" *RAIN IS FALLING LIKE MAX VERSTAPPEN* "

I kind of love how this isn’t animated. Not too sure why

I love you Gorillaz 💚

For having such monotone vocalization, I don't think I've ever heard a song this...aggressive before.

For some reason I think this is better as a storyboard than a full-fledged music video.

This song is hauntingly beautiful

just start the fucking kickstarter project to animate this masterpiece

Considering the weight of this song despite its pop sound, I'm really happy that Gorillaz decided to officialize the music video that this artist made & posted the storyboards of, it really fits. Adds a lot to the mythos around Plastic Beach, too

1:54 is the best part🎉

0:05 when you got a r e a l a p p e t t i t e

us: what is gorillaz budget? Gorillaz: just enough to draw the pictures

the best music of my playlist

I literally have no idea what is going on in the film but the song still slaps

Everytime I play this song, I’m instantly transported back to my high school days. Specifically this one day in Year 9 nearing the end of the day on a Friday. I was in art class about 30mins before the bell goes and it was raining outside, I was sitting in a separate room with my friend from the rest of the class and these two Year 12 (senior) girls who were doing their own thing. I’m a lot happier now than I was then and I’m so grateful for the impact Gorillaz have had on my life : )

2:40 When you forget you had homework

1:54 best part

Danganronpa fans listening to Rhinestone Eyes = More Gorillaz fans Gorillaz fans knowing about the Nagito edit = More Danganronpa fans Edit: we get the stink from both fandoms too.

russel: *eats a shark* noodle: *looks into camera like she's on the office*

You know the more time passes the more relevant plastic beach as an album gets

The best song of Gorillaz 😢 nostalgic

10 year ago: Good music. Tiktok now: Squid game.

I am SO bummed they did not make a proper animated version. do you know how fucking epic it could have been?!?! There was so much action and awesomeness in the one video! :''(

Danganronpa fans: I guess we know why we are all here. *(Edit: please stop sending negative comments, I was really happy about one of my favorite songs from gorillaz getting more recognition, i didn't write this with the intention of making rhinestone eyes an "edit song" i think it's a masterpiece and it deserves recognition. Please stop sending hate, i enjoy this song and I'm happy about other people listening to it. Please stop.)*

Yep. Official on my playlist

Mmm that original 2d voice is like soft butter~

I honestly think it fits more when not animated. It gives it a certain feel that i dont think full animation could've give it

Someone needs to start a petition to get this video finished EDIT from 2020: Yes, I'm aware that a fan actually did animate this, and that's awesome. I was glad to see it actually finished.

This is one of my favorate songs ever and I listened to it a lot when I dated my ex back I june, she made me the happiest I've ever been

Everyone is talking about "dangaponra" and I'm here cuz I love Gorillaz

This song always metaphorically feels like how the world feeds on material things and everything eventuality turns artificial from everyone’s greed. We rely on electronics and fake food/things and we turn into “zombie-like” creatures following what the world tells us. It feels like the person listening to this song is waking up and noticing everything happening. Just an interesting point of view.
