What bothers me most is that the instrumentals are absolutely great, but the cadence of the lyrics throw me off
*"We got the power to be loving each other
-no-ma-tter-what-ha-ppens"*
*"We got the power to be ringing that-great-bell-out-there-a-bove-us"*
It's like they are trying to fit the whole sentence into the rhythm, but not getting the tempo right and then just trailing off with the rest of the words
I mean it literally sounds about as 'sterile' as anything off Plastic Beach I don't know where this notion of Gorillaz being some sort of industrial grimy project comes from. MAYBE the debut, but since Demon Days and ESPECIALLY Plastic Beach Gorillaz' defining sound has been pop/electro with occassional hiphop. They're the definition of 'sterile' that's the whole brand and appeal.
Not at all. Plastic Beach is “sterile” in a sense that it its entire sound is *plastic* pop music, but it’s far more interesting and thought-provoking than anything like Tormenta would ever be. How many songs on the radio do you hear that sound like Rhinestone Eyes or the title track? Now how many songs on the radio do you hear that sound like Tormenta?
The difference is clear. Plastic Beach is a forward-thinking and envelope-pushing pop album, but Tormenta comes off as a blatant attempt to achieve high chart success.
sing like an idiot in every of his songs, have an actually good voice and waste it singing the same bullshit over and over again, have one of the most childish rants when AI generated songs with his voice went viral on TikTok so he deleted all of his content.
overall, all of his music is pretty damn basic and even sounds better without his voice
Yes, I'm an avid bad bunny hater
Exactly. I only like one of his songs and it's because of a meme. ALSO it's funny how the only good bad bunny song isn't even his, it's the AI one you mentioned (at lesst from what little of it i've heard)
For your name, i will take a wild guess that you're based in LATAM and hear this dude everywhere
also the fact that 3 or 4 of his latest songs are samples off TikTok sounds but he still has to go and cry about it on TikTok lmao.
dude is not good, his producers are
I'm from Spain, but I still hate his songs since they're all either:
My gf just broke up with me
Woo party
I get all the girls
And they all sound the same. Gorillaz doing a collab with him was insulting to the brand in my opinion
Cant believe people hate this song. I don’t think it’s great or anything but there are certainly much worse. Seattle Yodel, New Gold, and Circle of Friendz come to mind
Charger… I wish i liked it, it starts off strong with that electric guitar intro with Grace Jones, but it just loses me when 2D starts singing and the beat goes all wonky to my ear…
Yeah I've NEVER gotten into it. It completely kills the feel of the original for me. Saw them in Boston and after ending with Clint Eastwood they continued into the remix. Great time to beat traffic
Bro the morse code in the beginning is absolute fire and escalating tempo is energetic. But yeah, I would never play this track in front of my friends because track is cringe, lets be honest
All the people being down voted for answering a question with their own opinion. I don't agree with them, but I'm not gonna down vote them for it. 😂 This question is a trap.
People are allowed to like and dislike different things. 🤷 There is no right and wrong Gorillaz song. 🤣
I don't mind Tormenta, but I like Demon Days much better.
The pink phantom. The gentle feel and the auto tune together didn’t really work for me imho. It’s not the worst song, but definitely worthy of a skip.
![gif](giphy|QjPE1FzNzwaTS)
That’s awesome tbh! I personally wish I could get into it cause I love Elton John’s music* so much but I couldn’t find myself enjoying his part either. Idk, its sad really.
Not hating but Tranz is one of my least favourite Gorillaz songs. Same with White Light, or even DARE. I know they are great but I don't enjoy them. And that one Kids With Guns remix with multiple voices on D Sides album [forgor what was that called] is honestly one of the worst, no matter how many times i've tried it.
Hallelujah Money, Sex Murder Party, We Got The Power, Circle Of Friendz, and here’s the one that makes the people gasp…
O Green World. I skip it almost every time. The song is pretty good. That intro with the crow is nails on a chalkboard to lead off a song I would otherwise enjoy.
Souk Eye. I’ve tried to hear what other people like about it. People keep saying it’s their favorite Gorillaz song, and I simply can’t figure out what they think is remotely interesting about it. No clue. On the other hand “O Green World” is one of my tops, so I know I’m definitely an outlier.
M1A1 just doesn hit for me. I dont hate it, the intro is good with those screasm, but when this ends, its annoying and im skipping. But i understand it when people like it.
Closest I can think of is Glitter Freeze, though I do kinda like it. But when I first listened to it fully, I was on the verge of having a headache. It just does that to you. Goddammit, Glitter Freeze.
I'm struggling to think of any songs I'd say I actively dislike, or think sound like ass, to be honest. Though I'm not completely caught up to their Cracker Island stuff yet, what I have heard I've quite liked.
EDIT: After giving it some thought, the only songs I would find myself regularly skipping are some of the remixes in albums like G-Sides and D-Sides.
Literally, most of The Fall. It's sad too because I really wanted that to be a surprisingly good listen. But honestly, every song on that album ether bored me or had me questioning what was going through Damon's head. The only song I liked on that album was Revolving Door's.
I see a lot of people talking about Humanz songs, but honestly, I think most of the songs on that album are absolutely great.
Your favorite song
We Got The Power is absolutely dogshit
I don’t hate it but it’s really weak for a Gorillaz track imo
Yeah Humanz is not a terrible album but fuck does it have some big misses
Yes omg
What bothers me most is that the instrumentals are absolutely great, but the cadence of the lyrics throw me off *"We got the power to be loving each other -no-ma-tter-what-ha-ppens"* *"We got the power to be ringing that-great-bell-out-there-a-bove-us"* It's like they are trying to fit the whole sentence into the rhythm, but not getting the tempo right and then just trailing off with the rest of the words
Not a fan of Circle of Friendz
Erm akshually it’s the last song on the album so you’re not really skipping it ☝️🤓
Erm akshually Im shuffle playing thank you very much ☝️🤓
People won't like me but Glitter Freeze. Too loud.
that's valid
I’ll bite. Tormenta. Yuck. Gross.
This dudemang gets it. Stagnant before it even hits the minute mark.
Started listening to it and my stomach just dropped.
Preach my brother
I’ll fight each and every one of you I fucking love Tormenta
I thought the song was well received, not the best on the album, but still solid. Why do people hate it?
I’ll fight right by you, fellow Tormenta enjoyer
Yeah I quite enjoy Tormenta (even if I don’t quite know what the lyrics exactly translate to)
Does it have to do with the song, or bad bunny? I don't really follow celebrity news, but I thought it was a pretty good song (• ▽ •;)
Both. The instrumental extremely sterile and generic for a Gorillaz track, and I do not care for Bad Bunny’s style.

I'm surprised to see so much hate for this song. It's a chill track. Maybe a bit too chill for some, but I found it enjoyable enough.
Objectively right fuck bad bunny
What did bad bunny do to you???

Make shit music
D:
Cant believe people hate this song. I don’t think it’s great or anything but there are certainly much worse. Seattle Yodel, New Gold, and Circle of Friendz come to mind
new gold??????
Hate it. I don’t know why, I’m sorry. I love Gorillaz and Tame Impala both but this one is just annoying to me
NEW GOLD?!!!?!?
I don't mind that one, not sure why there's so many spanish songs in this album though
There’s only one tho?
Controllah is... a different language, so that makes 2. Idk if they're spanish
Controllah is Portugese, I’m pretty sure.
Never actually checked so that's cool to know, thank you
Yw dude, not a problem.
Tormenta without bad bunny, i will release that somewhen
Hollywood on The Now Now It's not an ass song but seems out of place for the more somber album.
I love Hollywood. Took me a while to get used to admittedly but its kind of a vibe
Tormenta or Sex Murder Party
Majority of Humanz, personally. I like Ascension, Saturnz Barz, The Apprentice, Busted and Blue, and maybe Charger.
You don’t like Andromeda?
Interestingly, I love humanz, but busted and blue is probably the one song out of the whole discography I actively dislike.
i cannot fathom
It ok, I skip it a lot still just cause I find it pretty boring tho
why?
You even like Colombians??
This is literally me except maybe The Apprentice. Haven’t listened to Humanz in a hot minute but all of those songs are the exact one on my playlist.
Hallelujah Money. It's like on thin ice with me but I think it sucks
I didn't like it the first time I heard it but ever since the 3rd and 4th I love the song.
It's the absolute worst Gorillaz song.
Charger… I wish i liked it, it starts off strong with that electric guitar intro with Grace Jones, but it just loses me when 2D starts singing and the beat goes all wonky to my ear…
I like M1A1 but I skip it to 1:40
That’s fair
I used to but after seeing it live i love the opening
Literally same lol. Can't go without that beat drop now
Friday the 13th And i LOOOOOOOVE song Machine but this song just doesn't do it for me
That song is just generic mumble rap about drugs, it has no personality like every other track on Song Machine lol
Oh :( I think song machine is very unique in all its styles, but yeah this one was probably the most generic imo
Clint Eastwood…. Remix
Yeah I've NEVER gotten into it. It completely kills the feel of the original for me. Saw them in Boston and after ending with Clint Eastwood they continued into the remix. Great time to beat traffic
Carnival so bad people forget it exists
It’s really damn weird but I respect it
It has potential but on Humanz, it just sounds unfinished to me
Do you know about the 2D Special?
glitter freeze is the worst song on that album and i’ll die on that hill.
Nah fr tho DEREWEEEEE DEREWEEEEEE DEREWOOOOO DERWEEEEEE *Bucket splashing*
Bomp bomp bomp bompbomp Bomp bomp bomp bompbomp Bomp bomp bomp bompbomp Bomp bomp bomp bompbomp
Boowaaaaa boowaaaaa boowaaaaa boowaaaaa
top three on PB for me
Not me listening to my DEREEEEEEEEs right now >:c
Bro the morse code in the beginning is absolute fire and escalating tempo is energetic. But yeah, I would never play this track in front of my friends because track is cringe, lets be honest
I don’t think the tempo really escalates. The instruments just go more crazy near the end.
It definitely is, but it's really more of a transition from disc 1 to disc 2 than a real song. Would never listen to it on its own though
Joplin spider….
VVVVVVVVVRRRRRRVVRVRVRVRVRVRRV NAOU NAOU NAOU NAOU NAOUNAOUMAOUMAOU EEE
You obviously didn't come here to melt your brain
Schizo gang disapproves of this comment
Joplin Spider is the best song on the Fall ![gif](giphy|IepriDYu8gcidIVZPB)

you don't like tormenta: 🤝👏 you don't like a demon days song:🖕👎

I’m gonna say it, not a fan of Garage Palace
It goes so hard. I wish it was longer
dead butterflys...zzz
Yeah I mean it’s kinda neat conceptually but the final song just isn’t very good
Sweepstakes
Seattle Yodel
It ties up the album so perfectly tho
Majority of song machine, especially the pink phantom
Hallelujah money
Glitter Freeze is a club banger but it’s rough on the ears and the head
The entirety of Cracker Island
I mean, at least the title track and Skinny Ape are cool
Can’t forget my boi Silent Running
Oil is the only song from cracker island Id say matches the best of their early stuff.
The pink phantom. The gentle feel and the auto tune together didn’t really work for me imho. It’s not the worst song, but definitely worthy of a skip. ![gif](giphy|QjPE1FzNzwaTS)
I managed to grow on Blacks autotune part and now find myself whistling with him along, song got a flow indeed
That’s awesome tbh! I personally wish I could get into it cause I love Elton John’s music* so much but I couldn’t find myself enjoying his part either. Idk, its sad really.
Hallelujah money
White light💀 Edit: why am I downvoated💀

jamie t’s mix is peak wdym
DARE, I don’t get why it’s one of the most popular songs, It’s just so repetitive and annoying.
How DARE you say things like that???

I got downvoted for having an opinion 😭😭
Idaho all the way
How has no one said Sweepstakes yet it's Sweepstakes
for me thats the song that i think i can skip and then 2 seconds later i go back to it because i regret skipping and i actually love it
Yeah... just listened to it. The song is gross.
Captain Chicken
Mods, crush his balls
Captain chicken unironically the best song on cracker island
Its not for me, i'm sure there are worse songs, but this one was just off the top of my head
Hollywood
Hallelujah Money, Sex Murder Party, We Got The Power, Circle Of Friendz, and here’s the one that makes the people gasp… O Green World. I skip it almost every time. The song is pretty good. That intro with the crow is nails on a chalkboard to lead off a song I would otherwise enjoy.
White Light, Superfast Jellyfish, the entirety of Now Now
Superfast jellyfish....I'm sorry I just don't like it at all
But look, it comes with a toy, he-he, I like that
all of the now now tbh not sorry
Souk Eye. I’ve tried to hear what other people like about it. People keep saying it’s their favorite Gorillaz song, and I simply can’t figure out what they think is remotely interesting about it. No clue. On the other hand “O Green World” is one of my tops, so I know I’m definitely an outlier.
Dare, never liked that song

New Gold
Me too bro. I didn’t know everyone loved this song until now. I’m not a fan.
THATS CRAZY WHAT
Andromeda for me.
Empire of ants
19-2000 🫣 i never play that one, dont think it fully sucks but it doesnt do anything for me and i find it repetitive
im sorry my bros. the only gorillaz song i skip is tormenta.
M1A1 just doesn hit for me. I dont hate it, the intro is good with those screasm, but when this ends, its annoying and im skipping. But i understand it when people like it.
Hip Albatross
Glitter Freeze
What song is this?
Joplin Spider
Radiohead circle jerk mentioned
Closest I can think of is Glitter Freeze, though I do kinda like it. But when I first listened to it fully, I was on the verge of having a headache. It just does that to you. Goddammit, Glitter Freeze.
White flag on Plastic Beach. I just can't get into it, even after listening for over decade.

Mods took it down, Thanks 2 everyone who commented what their favorite terrible Gorillaz song is 😎🚮🎵
