[@DendyJungle]

i love how damon can do whatever genre he wants and do it well. he is a chameleon

[@tomhchamp]

Mo He should collaborate with Yoko Kano before she turns to dust.

[@El-Gucher]

+tomhchamp fuck yes

[@acanofpaint1259]

are we CHAMELEON!?! is this how it ends?

[@lucasocanto58]

[@hamschebs123]

the bassist is the most entertaining one to look at

[@ChizzeMagoo]

Lep Lep seye always looks like he's having the time of his life

[@MrMusicfan007]

Witch's Brew Sims That would be Remi Kabaka Jr. The bassist here is Seye Adelekan.

[@watashiwanoodle4103]

Quite handsome ain't he? ;)

[@fullmetalguy8357]

Reminds me of Bootsy Collins.

[@pkmnherofan22]

Hell yes to that

[@JackieRin]

I love how Everett looks so calm but his voice is so expressive and just on point with the notes.

[@braindonor8753]

He is amazing when he turns up.

[@jaydenkjefferson]

@@braindonor8753 agreed

[@obwee3651]

ITS THAT BASSIST AGAIN

[@DemiKrueger]

Obwee gotta love that bassist

[@brickbat23]

Yup

[@tilleisbaer3560]

vocals: superb bassline: smooth drums: catchy the whole song: so damn funky, i can't resist to move

[@kameronking4321]

I don't hear the guitar

[@dnl5890]

As much as I'd like Damon Albarn to sing a bit more, I honestly can't fault many, if any, songs, on the album. They all sound incredible and still carry that Gorillaz vibe so I ain't complaining

[@abluetomato]

ah yes, david, my favorite

[@thebookeater9955]

LMAO

[@dnl5890]

Oh shit, didn't notice that, I feel like such a fool. Please don't cast me with the others, I am a true Gorillaz fan. See it's fixed :D

[@adefrazf6921]

no, fuck you

[@JoeNixon]

Peven's voice is straight up amazing.

[@Spiiegel]

they feed off one another, it's so great to see that collective energy. 😣

[@francyopazog.8325]

Lovely icon btw

[@GTanya07]

one of my fav, the melody is so good!!!!!!! Damon looks sharp btw 👊

[@DocLobby]

I got a feeling that this song was made for Bobby Womack

[@infinite73ce]

David Pérez not all written by my guy peven everett

[@DocLobby]

cool

[@b.l.o.o.d.m.o.s.e.s.]

David Pérez Andromeda was written for everyone that Damon collabed with who died. Also his mother

[@mike365fly]

*mother in law

[@jackbeason8058]

David Pérez That was andromeda.

[@FlasKamel]

Ahahah that insane performance with THAT underwhelming clapping at the end. Love it.

[@octopus189]

It was in a small radio studio, no crowd there to clap, most likely those claps came from the console cabin where only a handfull of people works.

[@FlasKamel]

Ich know, still pretty funny

[@VictoriaSobocki]

Pretty funny, yes, haha

[@TomasikEnjoyer42]

Everett seems absurdly passionate, and Damon is really feeling it. Over all the live feels gorgeous

[@palolocisneros9855]

Esta es mi parte favorita: Momentary pain Can be pleasure lain Millisecond change Magic lantern strange Are we just too far, to be as one again? Are we obsidian? Is this how it is? Girl, your life will turn Just like a strobe Because you're daddy's pain And your mother won't And your heart engages into heartless throes Are we obsidian? Is this how it goes? And when your private life is dreamin' You livin' the strobe light And you will find the life you needed You livin' the strobe light Slide the light off you You may find some peace All will come to you If you come with me Are we just too far to be as one again? Are we obsidian? Is this how it ends? (Yeah!) And when your private life is dreamin' You livin' the strobe light And you will find the life you needed You livin' the strobe light Oh yeah! And when your private life is dreamin' You livin' the strobe light And you will find the life you needed You livin' the strobe light And when your private life is dreamin' You livin' the strobe light And you will find the life you needed You livin' the strobe light Pa-pa-pa-pa-ra And when you got it And then you dreamin' (You livin' the strobe light) You hit the light Pa-pa-pa-pa-ra You’ve got to find it You know you need it (You livin' the strobe light) You hit the light Problem? :v

Palolo Cisneros ste men

[@palolocisneros9855]

La verdad, no sé ustedes, pero a mí me gusta encontrar la letra de la canción en el mismo vídeo sin tener que abrir otra ventana. xD

[@saiyanlegacy2816]

Palolo Cisneros gracias viejo :3

[@samseriarenales6898]

Thanks foo

[@Charmin77]

unpopular opinion i actually don't dislike any of the new songs. like at all 💞

[@Foxuniverso]

Llovely220 thats a popular opinion though 😂 a this album is 60/40 40 being fans that dont like it

[@patricklauer4452]

Llovely220 same!

[@jamz007ap]

Peven & Gorillaz = awesome beautiful music. Go ahead brother, we love you. From your folks in the burbs of Illinois.

[@peveneverett8401]

I love yall back and thanks. Harvey.Il definitely in this for real. Make sure you all check the tour this summer at a city near you.

[@jamz007ap]

Looking forward to it. Much love.

[@ItsWhatever24]

that moment when Damon finally opens his mouth and pretty much nothing comes out :( great track though

[@nekelaznup4644]

You mean 2:57? Yeah, he just had an orgasm dude... I think. You know, the music is fucking great for that.

[@hecklife6636]

+Wolfyyy I thought he was just having his mental breakdown, to be frank.

[@nekelaznup4644]

That, and an orgasm.

[@kenzotoda5278]

if you put on heaphone you can notice his voice very faintly.

[@SuperRomRam]

hahahahahahaaa

[@user-pr6lh2kw6b]

DAMN!!!Peven iS SOOOOO TALENTED!!!!

[@LinkmanWorld]

I have never seen someone wear a watch over their clothing

[@theecatalogue]

Ha. It almost looks like a cast, the way it comes over his hand. Or some kind of hand brace thingy. Sometimes people wear things like that to help with blood flow or something. Now I'm invested in knowing. He's also holding his hand in a weird way. I'm going to go with some kind of injury... (I realize I'm commenting this three years later. Lol!)

[@BIRDO-qw9dn]

Bassist = VIBE

[@clintonswaim]

I'll be honest; I thought this album was full of drum machine and therefore made Russel obsolete. This performance proved me wrong.

[@sonikku956]

Clinton Swaim Russel owns the drum machines. You think a guy influenced by hip hop and trip hop wouldn't use them in-universe?

[@joslynbaldacchino6338]

They're all amazing, but the singer WOW! That voice is one of a kind!

[@mothernature402]

Peven is THE MAN.

[@taveontimmons5284]

The new Gorillaz album is some of the best stuff Damon has ever made.

[@mike365fly]

love the new album, but damon created most legendary music with blur

[@Spiiegel]

he didn't do it alone.

[@monster10090]

Not even close, stop it,.

[@Ozzymandias493]

monster10090 You're probably to young to understand, its ok we where all young once too

[@monster10090]

"Looks at OzzyTheAussie history and subs" Yeah...I'm the young one. Hahahaha. Or maybe worse, I am younger than you. But your subs/history explains the shitty tastes you have. Pick one.

[@marykeiks2602]

real music

[@tamaraj5648]

So catchy and soothing, what an amazing voice And could Damon look cooler

[@angrybusinessmankillingthe6343]

@TsamuriX woman's clean he said Damon... as in the guy that invented gorillaz

[@danielholt8535]

3.07 Damon pretends to sing! Good stuff though living the new vibes from this album, exactly what was needed!

[@lauv1150]

Daniel Holt uh... he made like an *aaaahhh* you need headphones

[@Tuffetti]

Twit ... this is a live studio recording. He didn’t pretend, he ad-libbed 🙄

[@dragondelsur5156]

This song gave me the 80's vibe.

[@oliviaberry]

peven everett contains such raw talent it is so amazing to watch him sing live !!! how does he sing so effortlessly 🥺

[@FlasKamel]

AMAZING! Now I've just got to wait another billion hours for my pre-order download links and everything will be perfect.

[@jaynatrall]

love this song it has that late 80s early 90s vibe👌🎶

[@patricklauer4452]

Jey Natrall yeah it’s like your partying in a warehouse! :D

[@renecastillo0218]

The melody and the vocals of Peven are really beautiful. This song is incredible in all the ways

[@bezzavids5316]

it makes me so happy to see how much he is enjoying himself I bet he's so proud of everything and everyone for what they've achieved and how far they've all come

[@egecant]

peven everett is a beast much respect for him

[@marijavaitulionyte7671]

The drummer is chill as fuck

[@spacecowboysucio]

Such a fine music.

[@pixyjan]

This is so good! A little bit Earth Wind and Fire, a bit early Prince and a smudge of parliament! Divine!

[@herpderp1153]

Класс.

[@mothernature402]

They ALL JAMMINGGGG SINGANNNNN PLAYINNNNNNN 🙏🏾🎶🙏🏾

[@Hyperchicken]

Man, he really needs to record an entire Gorillaz album or EP like this. Just get all of these talented-as-hell musicians into a studio, hit record, and have them play songs he's written. I love the original Strobelite, but this version just has so much more life to it.

[@missanthr0pocene]

cant tell if i like the live version or normal version better. its just so amazing! both!

[@peveneverett8401]

Thanks love. Really appreciate it. Don't miss the tour.

[@NyqWill95]

Their bass player is so.....funky

[@MrBPM75]

Killer performance!!!

[@Bythehandof...]

Peven Everett's voice reminds me about Booby Womack (R.I.P.)Album is Great... Love It

[@elsenorj8647]

so fucking AMAZING

[@kamila2836]

7 years for this piece of art. Totally worth it 👌

[@MrSexyugly]

this live version is better than the recorded version

[@wolfgangbriceno9840]

I love that there is no racism in you Damon..

[@WolfManDon93]

wtf does this have to do with making music?

[@nekelaznup4644]

Not DRE, cause he retired.

[@jackrutledgegoembel5896]

Why doez it matter, Donovan?

[@dawn220]

Or Peven.

[@rafisetiaji8469]

Come on?

[@waxfondlr]

asr 10? go head! This track is banging on some early 90s rnb

[@coldfusion2121]

peven out of ten

[@lolvodsxi]

:D yay! I love Humanz

[@imthechewedgumthatyoutouch5161]

Damn his voice is so fucking amazing!

[@emilianog872]

funky as fuck

[@FreeformThoughts804]

Gorillaz and Peven on one track....have no choice but to nod my head....GREAT TRACK!

[@mmmmmmmmm95]

Una vez mas... Gorillaz Salvando la música actual, desde tiempos memoriables!!

[@blackdiamondltd_jack]

I just realized that Strobelite video and song are like that kind of party that is good, really good. Everyone is jumping, dancing, drinking, clapping and having all sorts of good fun and when it's about to end, it just gets better, for me, that final part is from this point of the song (3:17). Every time I hear this part I can't help but dance, move my head and just think that I'm in a great party. The only missing thing is a large, skinny, green guy. Anyway, I love the song

[@theumbranhammer]

This album was unique and different than the others but I'm a really good way imo. It was catchy and upbeat at times, dark and weird at others. It's an interesting album for an interesting time to be released in and I love every time I listen through it.

[@sf5823]

10 out of 10 for awesomeness! Nailed it! 😊

[@merrick_724]

Awesome! this was one of my favorite songs from the album! :)
