I'm reading about this song in Rise of the Ogre while listening, and it says you can hear cicadas in the background when 2D is singing bc they recorded it outside in the middle of the night. I love how they have an explanation on how they got every little noise into every song.

I actually agree with this statement, it's a really amazing song and has two of some of the most prominent themes from the self-titled album, trip-hop and dub. Probably could have replaced Rock the House as a single, that was certainly somewhat of a weird choice for a single. Great song, but Sound Check would have been more appropriate. It's just an amazing song and really represents the self-titled album perfectly. Plus, a music video for this song would have been amazing.

I imagine 2D's story in this one. 2D, with normal eyes, going to work at a music store. Then the scratchy rapping part is Murdoc who crashed his car into the store, hitting 2D and causing him to slip into a coma. Then that middle gravity part is 2D floating while in his coma unaware of time passing, then he starts singing and coming around only to find out that Murdoc caused a second crash that woke him up. 2D finally opens his eyes and they are both black. Wow! Thanks for so many likes everyone!

That’s a powerful song and a masterpiece. It’s a fight between your “good” self (represented by 2D’s falsetto) and “bad” self (normal 2D’s voice) inside your head, you're trapped in yourself. The good self feels the “weight” and bad influence of the bad self “Gravity on me, never let me down gently” and makes him have low self-esteem and doubts “I don’t know, love is breaking”. - Meanwhile, the bad self wants to convince the good self that he is not making things worse “I don’t pull me down, on you”, but the fight between both selves continues accompanied by a violin, until the track ends with “Gravity...” with the last words being “I don’t know, love-love-love…” and then, silence. That’s the saddest part. You don’t know who wins the fight inside your head in the end.

After 5 years or so, I played it almost as much as the other songs on the album. By year 10, it was even with other songs. But for some reason tonight in 2019...15 some odd years later, this song just came into my head as I face some of the biggest trials and tribulations of my life in the next few weeks. I looked at the lyrics and read them to myself and listened to the song one more time and it all became clear.

Honestly, this song could have many interpretations of it's supposed to mean, but I've decided to stop pondering over what it means and just enjoying the song for what it is. Edit: In Rise of the Ogre, 2D says that he was sitting on a roof in Jamaica at night when he devised this song. He said he was just thinking about the universe really, perhaps that's the official explanation for this song? It does have that sort of vibe, at least to me. I think it's one of the few non unsettling songs from the self-titled though, there's some pretty unsettling songs such as Man Research, Double Bass, or New Genius though. I personally view it as more of a relaxing song, one that gets away from the craziness and unsettling feeling that's prominent in quite a few of the songs featured on the album.

to me, this song represent someone at the end of a relation ship or in a depressive moment of his life. always behing cruch always being destroye, always fighting the voice in his head that tell him to give up in a way. I get that vibe from the fact that the song seems to be into a constant conflict. their is the soft accoustic guitard that get slowly replace by the heavy beat, but it constantly try to fight. the simple beat is an allusion actually. When Damon sing, you can here the bugs surronding him, representing his contact with nature, the real world. then his emotions take him to another darker place, a place cold and harsh, the universe, with an indistinct voice and a mechanical beat. then for the lyrics, well, we could interpret them in several ways, but basicly i think the gravity his talking about is a love interest that he is losing. but if you lose gravity, what keep you in this world? nothing. so he fight to stay with the gravity, even if that mean to continue to be crushed on a day by day base. Obviously, this is all only just one of multiple interpretation we could get from this song. I would like to know what other people think the lyrics and song represent?

@troy66007 жыл бұрын
So.. I know no one will read this, but I just felt like talking about the way I personally deciphered the song "Sound Check" by Gorillaz... So.. It starts out real soft and kinda quiet.. A chill smooth beat and acoustic chords.. The about 40 seconds in, the heavy bass drops and it turns.... Hiphop-ish? I'm not sure how to describe it, but it makes me think of the soft part being through the point of view of a forest sprite of fairy or spirit.. The the bass symbolizes the modernization of a city suddenly being built from the forest.. It the alternates back to a soft beat, with a bit of a strong snare beat, meaning the spirit, or whatever, is in a park in the city, reminded of their old home.. The heavy snare equalling trash or vandalism or other man made stuff (benches and streetlights) it alternates back to hiphopish... Then fades off back to the spirit.. He sounds very dismayed and sad.. Then it turns to a slight orchestral moment overlain on the original beat.. To me, it sounds dramatic, like the spirit is rebelling.. The original beat, orchestral overlay, and the hiphopish beat all are overlapping, symbolizing that the spirit battles the city to destroy it and return the forest.. Eventually fades to the beat from the beginning, the spirits song.. I believe that the spirit drove the city folk away, and tore down the city bringing back their forest home... Sorry I made you read all that..

Why aren't they in the rock n roll hall of fame??? They're a one of a kind and have been going for 23 (goat number, by the way) years and they have touched so many hearts and truly stand out like no others but musically and visually. Truly Gorillaz is iconic 2 d is God is a banger so listen to that one next if you like this song.

I'll never forget how listening to this song made me feel when I was younger. It hits harder as an adult, the more time passed the more scars appeared from everything I've experienced, and this song holds a new meaning for me though for the same emotion.
@knucklesfan88 жыл бұрын
Does anyone know which member of Gorillaz wrote the lyrics to this song? I hope 2d cause I think it gives a really interesting view of how he views the world. He's constantly paranoid and feels that everything is out to get him that even gravity scares him; it's always violently pulling on him and it never does so gently.

This song just jumped into my head just now. Great jam, used to listen to this album a lot when it first released. My buddy had an old school Bonneville, we'd cruise through town playing this and every time there was a crowd outside the local ice cream shop, he'd throw the car in neutral, turn off the ignition and then turn the key to start the car back up before shifting back into drive. It was hilarious to see peoples heads turn, just looks of, 'wtf just happened??' We were never sure if it was bad for the car but nothing ever happened. To be young and dumb. Good times.
