Murdoc: *takes vacation* 2D:

When Murdoc says you can get a peppermint tea

There’s something so mesmerising about how scuffed 2-D’s dancing is. It’s beautifully skronkled.

2-D is so good at playing the piano he doesn't even need to touch the keys.

yall complaining we didn't get enough 2d in saturnz barz, then 2d dances his heart out for you guys, and complaining is the thanks he gets?

Damon: I need one of those mocap suits. Jamie: Why? Damon: No reason.

This is what happens when you give a 42 year old man with an addiction to painkillers a green screen and a camera at 3:00AM and tell him to make a song about it

this is how 6 year old me felt when I took a sip of my dads monster when he wasn't looking

what I think I look like dancing: 2d in strobelite what I actually look like dancing: 2d in sleeping powder

I feel like this song wasn’t supposed to have a video to go with it, but 2D got ahold of a green screen at like 3 am and just made this the music video

song: *2D’s painkiller addiction* the entire gorillaz fandom: *YUHH GET INTO IT*

This isn't 2D this is a rare glimpse of Stuart Pot

This is your brain on gorillaz

When the people get disappointed about you not singing as much in previous songs so you dance your ass off but people still complain

I love how at the end, 2D looks off camera as if he were looking at Noodle, Russel, and Murdoc like "See, I told you I could do this song and music video in one take."

Song: *is about 2Ds crippling addiction to painkillers* Music Video: OH YEAH HE GROOVIN

i love that this entire thing was basically just damon’s excuse to experiment with motion capture

It makes it 10x better knowing that Damon is the one providing the motion capture footage and is 2D here.

This might just be my favorite music video. 2-D just looks so goofy and hes just jammin and honestly i relate to it so deeply

Ya’ll gotta stop ragging on my boy 2D, he’s 6’2, and these are the only pants in the store that would fit him.

Me at a party: I don't like to dance Me also at home:

Me and my roomate: **trying to figure out who ate all the shrooms** The cat:

And this my fellow Gorillaz fans, is what happens when you give a depressed 40 year old man who has worn the same outfit for 3 years a green screen. Thankyou for your time.

2-D playing the piano in the beginning like 2-D: How do i press the keys.

this is so aesthetically pleasing

"Hi, I'm 2D and I'm your freestyle dance teacher."

Gorillaz is that kind of band that you find yourself silently dancing to with earphones on at 1 a.m. or am I the only one doing that right now?

Looks like 2-D has been practicing his dance moves since Dirty Harry.

Murdoc: "Here, this will help you sleep" 2D at 3 am: *this video*

*when Murdoc leaves 2D alone for 2 straight seconds*

Lyrics: I was gone with the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone Gone, gone, gone I was gone I'm back, where are we goin'? Seem to get tired of the mornin' dawn With a basin on my head I'm missin' all that I used to know, then I get the kids to go, and I get Up on with certain dread And when I see the kissing down below Easy life, I get right I was gone with the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone Gone, gone, gone I was gone I get dropped from where I belong I take my pills and I get in the mood and I Take five to get it to load in Even in the place And I get my jeans on right And sit in the rows and Inside I live in a cage and I Peek out and summon the code and I Enter the lake to face what I'm cagin' Gone with the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone Gone, gone, gone I was gone She gave me sleeping powder I was gone Gone, gone, gone Ahh! I was gone with the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone Gone, gone, gone, gone I was gone

"911, what's your emergency?" "There's a man on acid dancing in the middle of the street" "Could you describe what he looks like?" "He's like, 75% leg, you can't miss him"

2d is like that one kid that can’t dance but his mom is cheering him on

when the flintstones gummy vitamins kick in

00:17 he’s just so talented yk?

this is like 2D's very own DARE video.

2D looks like he's in VRCHAT.

when you come out of your room for the first time in years

this song seems to come back to me while feeling the worst, thank you for dancing 2D

“This products side-affects may include: cancer, coPD, or even death.” The people in the commercial:

3 reasons why this song is a masterpiece: 1.-The lyrics its really good 2.-Good beat 3.-LOOK AT THAT DANCE MOVES PLEASE

2D Had To Much Of That Cool Shoe Shine

His little dance is the one thing keeping me alive tonight

I know its hard but ignore the dancing legend and you'll realize the song is actually one of the best gorillaz songs

why is nobody talking about the way he jumps at 1:48 like omg im legit wheezing from this WHY DOES HE DO IT SO SLOW

Nobody: Adults trying to get kids to dance at school dances:

This song makes me cry because it's pretty good and i've grown attached to it, good stuff

Me after taking mom's funny looking tic tacs:

When the bath is ready

Ad: Side Effects may include: Cancer, Death, Pain the people in the ad:

I find it very funny to see 2D dancing, it's like someone trying to dance in VRchat

Here ladies and gentleman, we have a 1. Grown man with 2. Mom jeans 3. Grandpas shoes 4. Dad Shirt 5. Grandma socks and 6. Dancing like a child. This is the definition of "All in 1"

2D: "Guys I made a new song we need to animate it" Everybody else: "Do it yourself." 2D: *Installs G-mod*

2-D: talks about his drug addiction Also 2-D: *Dancing like it's the end of the world.*

Can we take a moment to appreciate the person who did the motion capture for this 🙏

1st listen: mmmh... strange song 2nd listen: yeah, it's pretty good 3rd listen: I WAS GONE WITH THE SELF OF THE DAYYYY GOONE WITH THE SELF OF THE DAY GOOONE

"I was gone" "I'm back" Well, it escalated quickly

He had 3 flintstones vitamins. Don’t mess with his vibe.

“What was your inspiration for Sleeping Powder?” “Sleep.” -Stewart 2D Pot 2018

Fun fact: 2D's animation in this video was provided via motion capture by Damon Albarn. Sooo...that means 2D's dancing in this video is actually Damon's! XD

when you take a sip of your dads coffee when he isnt looking.

2D that's enough pepper mint tea for you

The fact this song and music video were made within 3 days is nothing short of magic

just remember that's Damon dancing with a motion sensor suit on! I would pay good money to see the original video

Look at him dance in those *M O M J E A N S*

I still can't tell if 2D was high when he made this, or his high-waisted pants were cutting off circulation...

So let me get this straight: When Noodle sneaks out and doesn't tell anyone about a song she wrote we get DARE...which mind you is a banger with a good video... *Ooooh but when 2-D does it, we get a groovy depressive song where all the budget went into buying the green screen and NOTHING else*

People are going to look back on this in 50 years time and wonder what the fuck we were all on

When you spend all your animation budget on Saturn Barz:

"This is your brain on drugs" Me: E G G

Animator: How weird do you want this video to be? 2D: *Yes*

2:03 The dance was so good, that 2d became our lord and savior Jesus Christ. *THE DANCE.*

Why aren't people talking about the fact that this is just Damon in a motion capture suit

It’s nice 2D got ahold of paper, pencil, wrote this song, got a green screen, danced, edited, then made this.

1:49 cats when they see a cucumber:

*This is what happens when you eat a cake that's been on a haunted house for decades.*

When people ask Murdoc why 2D isn't allowed out of the house, he shows them this video.

"Any questions?" "Yes. Why is my brain an egg??"

this song saved my life. Knife at my throat I heard 2D's voice. IT WAS ALMOST OVER...

Somebody: You can't play the instrument backwards. 2-D: Hold my sleeping powder!

This looks like a god tier shitpost i'd send to my friends at 3 AM

when 2d's pants are higher than your self esteem...

can we talk about the guitar? noodle definitely assisted him in this

I showed my mom Saturnz Barz and this and her only response was "I think his pants are pulled up too high."

"on a scale of one to ten how high are you?" me: 2:04

Nobody: Roblox characters when you type /e dance :

I pray that who ever did motion capture for this live a long life

1:49 the little jump still kills me to this day.

No one: People in medicine commercials:

No one: The bowling alley screen when you get a strike:

Me: *zones out* “Hey, watcha thinking about?” What I’m thinking about:

they're having way too much fun with these models

Lyrics: Okay, last time This is drugs This is your brain on drugs Any questions?" I was gone with the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone Gone, gone, gone I was gone I'm back, where are we goin'? Seem to get tired of the mornin' dawn With a basin on my head I'm missin' all that I used to know, then I get the kids to go, and I get Up on with certain dread And when I see the kissing down below Easy life, I get right I was gone with the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone Gone, gone, gone I was gone I get dropped from where I belong I take my pills and I get in the mood and I Take five to get it to load in Even in the place And I get my jeans on right And sit in the rows and Inside I live in a cage and I Peek out and summon the code and I Enter the lake to face what I'm cagin' Gone with the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone Gone, gone, gone I was gone She gave me sleeping powder I was gone Gone, gone, gone Ahh! I was gone with the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone With the self of the day, gone Gone, gone, gone, gone I was gone

Those complaining about the animation are missing the point. Damon decided to write a song with just 2D, he wrote it on Monday and made this video on Wednesday. It's a fan service for those who said they wanted "more 2D" on Humanz. There is a proper music video for a Humanz single currently in the works. We should all be happy to have a new song to enjoy, Damon didn't have to write it at all, but he did.

This was a song i used to skip back in the day and then i got really stoned and realized it was a total banger. Gorillaz mayne. Never gets old

drugs: exist 2D: *groovin’*

8 year olds when their parents let them have a sip of alcohol at a family party:

apparently the whole reason behind this is 2D felt he'd probably sung too little in Humanz, so he went out and made a whole song and video by himself, without telling anybody. I wonder what Murdoc said when he saw an uncommissioned Gorillaz video pop up on the official channel and 2D's silly mo-cap face in it.

dude listening to this song high is something else

Fun fact: Damon made this due to the backlash of Humanz because there was "not enough 2D in it"
