I'm curious to know if anybody else here listens to Gorillaz or has a favourite song by them! Also if there are any songs I should listen to by them? My favourite songs are Stylo, El Mañana and Dirty Harry.

    I really love their new song Cracker Island as well as their old stuff too. Dare is a jam and Feel Good Inc also 1200 I think it is called is also cool.

    I'm a big Gorillaz fan - so many!

    Agree on Dare, Feel Good Inc, Dirty Harry, and El Manana is gorgeous.

    On the lesser known ones, All Alone is a bop. Melancholy Hill will probably always be one of my favourite songs (also got an acoustic version and a cover by a sweet old man). Superfast Jellyfish and Clint Eastwood always put me in a good mood.

    @Amy22 I haven't heard much of their newer stuff actually, I need to catch up.

    PS welcome to the community @ririsss!

    @Amy22 Dare was my favourite song of theirs when I was little! It used to play so often on the radio.

    @JustV Ooh! Also Melancholy Hill is such a good song and Clint Eastwood is very nostalgic!

    Thanks for the welcome!

    Omg yes melancholy hill is awesome and Clint Eastwood is a bop. Same here too I would always play Dare because I loved Noodle so much. 2D was also my favourite and the lil green dude who I keep forgetting his name lol :lol:

    I never got into the characters but I feel like I'm missing out on some deep lore 😅

    @JustV There is a surprising amount of lore- I remember when I first properly got interested in Gorillaz as more than just that band I'd occassionally hear on the radio I was shocked by how much of a story there was behind them lol. 😭

    Also love a bit of Gorillaz! Just to throw in a different name, I really like Doncamatic :)

    And 100% @ririsss - I had no idea there was so much of a story behind the band until I came across a couple videos that tried to explain it all!

    @Azziman Unfortunately not, they should do more concerts here in the UK though. I'd totally be willing to travel across the country to see them. 😂
