[@maddiemac55530]

I heard this song live at Philly and I can’t get it out of my head. Is the meaning of this song is that 2-D found out his a cartoon. If that’s so, that would revolutionize the Gorillaz lore. We all know that Murdoc was self-aware, but 2-D?!?!? DANG!!! This song did move me to tear, and with 2-D being my favorite, it hurts!!!

[@SmashedBurrito_]

This sounds great, 9/10 song from me. This album is sooo good already. February needs to come faster!!
