Gorillaz feat. Slowthai & Slaves: Momentary Bliss – a Song Machine sorozat debütálása
A Gorillaz a 2017-es Humanz és 2018-as The Now Now albumok, meg az azok születését és világturnéját bemutató 2019-es Reject False Icons dokumentumfilm után 2020-ban is előáll valami újdonsággal: Damon Albarnék a hét elején beharangozott Song Machine projektjük keretében idén egy sor új dalt készítenek, melyek születését dokumentálják is. A széria ma fél 9-kor debütáló első kisfilmjében a northamptoni rapper Slowthai és a hasonlóan fanyar humorú kenti Slaves punk-rock duó társaságában írt Momentary Bliss című számot mutatják be.
Slowthai (született: Tyron Kaymone Frampton, 1994) már a tavaly májusi Nothing Great About Britain című debütalbumára is készített a Slaves-fiúkkal közösen egy dalt (Missing), ráadásul mindannyian karikaturisztikus képregényfigurákra emlékeztetnek, így jól illenek a vizuáltervező Jamie Hewlett által megálmodott Gorillaz-univerzumba is, ahová most együtt vonulhatnak be.
FRISSÍTÉS: a dalszöveg!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Momentary bliss
We could do so much better than this
Emotionally in fences and momentary bliss
We could do so much better than this
Oh, Rita, oh, Rita
Rita, Rita, meter maid
Your potential, you lack credentials
And you are special, so fucking special
Oh, how you need it, oh how you’re needed
And you keep squeezing the truth from the middle
You parted seas, but your arches, they ain’t golden
And you was gangin’ for some gags and now you’re rollin’
Bet you shut your trap and keep it hush
On another note, compliments make me blush
There’s a hole in your pocket, so you cannot find the change
Cavern of your mind, you say your pattern
You pull your strings and you jump, hold your mouth and you say:
„What was scripted, the day before it happened?”
We all give applause when people look at boys
But on the way out and get your back in
See, everything in life ain’t silver and gold
But minin’ for metal gave you platinum
It makes me sick to think you ain’t happy in your skin
It’s weird thing to think light bulb don’t blink
Just flickers to them, then it pops and withers
You’re a turkey twizzler, you deserve school dinners
Makes me sick
Poster boy
Poster girl
Truth the bills
Must be paid
Poster boy
Poster girl
The truth, the bills, they must be paid
And what is left and sorta atypical
All you need to change your face
You’re gettin’ sold, it’s such a waste
You know, we could do so much better than this
Swimmin’ in pools of momentary bliss
Where you gotta find a family ’cause everybody taken
They worry you keep on adding
I think you gotta crawl
It makes me sick to think you ain’t happy in your skin
It’s weird thing to think light bulb don’t blink
Just flickers to them, then it pops and withers
You’re a turkey twizzler, you deserve school dinners
It makes me sick to think you ain’t happy in your skin
It’s weird thing to think life all ain’t bling
Just flickers to them, then it pops and withers
You’re a turkey twizzler, you deserve school dinners
Makes me sick
We could do so much better than this
Emotionally in fences and momentary bliss
We could do so much better than this
Oh, Rita, oh, Rita
We could do so much better than this
Perfect little pictures of moments that we missed
We could do so much better than this
Oh, Rita, oh, Rita
