blew my mind a bit to hear that Empire Ants is your favorite from them, such a heavenly and beautiful song that doesn't get nearly enough credit. my only problem with your list is El Manana being so high (my personal favorite gorillaz song) but everyone can have their own opinion lmao
My top 10 favorite Gorillaz songs: 10: El mañana(demon days) 9: Clint Eastwood(Gorillaz) 8: Feel good inc(demon days) 7: Tranz(the now now) 6: Empire ants(Plastic beach) 5: O geeen world(demon days) 4: Broken(plastic beach) 3: On melancholy hill(plastic beach) 2: Fireflies(the now now) Few honorable mentions: Kansas(the now now) Punk(Gorillaz) 5/4(Gorillaz) Rhinestone eyes(plastic beach) 1: Every planet we reach is dead(demon days) That’s just my opinion
Dang, Tranz is one of my favourite songs by Gorillaz. It just has such a weird feel to it, (in a really good way) so i’m sad to see it being ranked so low ):

Surprised to see a lot of D-Sides at the bottom. Then again, alot of Plastic Beach is at the top, so I can forgive you. Most of this is pretty accurate to my opinion
My top 10: 10: Clint Eastwood 9: Kids with guns 8: Humility 7: Tomorrow comes today 6: 5/4 5: Sleeping powder 4: Tranz 3: O green world 2: 19/2000 1: Ghost train (I love this song sm) This is my opinion, if you don't agree, don't day anything.
My top 10: 1. Empire ants 2. All alone 3. The pink phantom 4. Dirty Harry 5. Opium 6. Rhinestone eyes 7. Stylo 8. Don't get lost in heaven/Demon days 9. Andromeda 10. Slow country
My favorites: 10) Kids with guns 9) On melancholy hill 8) Rock the house 7) Latin Simone (que pasa contigo) 6) Clint Eastwood 5) Rhinestone eyes 4) Feel good INC. 3) DARE 2) Empire Ants 1) El mañana (underrated song)
my turn, yayayay! gorillaz are my absolute favorite band so this a great chance for me to yap 1. (all time favorite) Fire Coming Out Of The Monkeys Head (HOLY SHIT, ITS SO GOOD) 2. To Binge (extremely fun to sing, good beat, great lore? background? whatever you will.) 3. Clint Eastwood (music video ver.) 4. Aries (always loved this one, always will.) 5. Re-Hash (ITS A SWEET SENSATION 🗣️🔥)

I agree with almost all the rank, only I think that The Now Now was a little bit low, but I understand. My top 3 would be: 1) Empire Ants 2) Souk Eye 3) Magic City
My Top 5 Gorillaz Songs 5. Sleeping Powder - Sleeping Powder 4. Momentary Bliss - Song Machine Season 1: Strange Timez 3. 5/4 - Gorillaz 2. Kids With Guns - Demon Days 1. Some Kind of Nature - Plastic Beach
I love how there isn't a single Plastic Beach song in the bottom quarter Edit: Hell, the fact that it's one spot away from not being in the bottom half at all
My favorite is Starshine, i get why you dont like it though. I actually really like your list, but heres a couple changes i would make: Starshine, Amarillo, Parish of Space Dust, Dracula, Revolving Doors, The Apprentice, Bobby in Phoenix, We Got the Power, Hillbilly Man, White Flag, Andromeda, Magic City (and a few others) should be higher in my opinion. 19-2000, Double Bass, Sweepstakes, White Flag, Hollywood, Glitter Freeze, Friday 13th, Shes my Collar, El Mañana, Don't Get Lost in Heaven, Ascension, Charger, November has Come (and a few others) should be ranked lower Overall though amazing list, and i enjoyed this video alot!
Rock the House and Tranz were bug surprises, Tranz is fine, and was own of the bigger songs of the Now Now, so it's so weird that you placed it so low, and for Rock the House... I get why you don't like it too much, but I really like it, and I want to kill you over Andromeda and Humility. But other than that, this list is really accurate to my thoughts on all the Gorrilaz songs I've heard as a whole. I haven't listened to all of the Gorillaz songs, but I'm still a really big fan, and I listen to them a ton, so I hope this video gets more support.
i’d bump up momentary bliss and friday 13th a bit from where they are. pac man would probably make it to top 10. pink phantom would land 10-20, strange timez would be in the high teens, valley of the pagans would be high 20’s, low 30’s, the lost chord would be low 20’s, chalk tablet towers would probably be around 50-40, dead butterflies would be 40-30, and i think that’s it! :)
This is one of the best tops I have seen, it is very balanced, but there is too much personal opinion and that is not bad, but the title of the video should be my favorite Gorillaz songs. Because when something is qualified, it is done objectively, and that absence causes atrocities to be seen. You have put songs in undeserved positions, and those songs are top 1 of thousands of fans and non-fans. But I repeat that the criteria in general are very good, despite having a very close thought to closed-minded fans
Mine would prob be 10. O Green World 9. Rock The House 8. Latin Simone 7. Do Ya Thing 6. Stylo 5. Feel Good Inc. 4. Rhinestone Eyes 3. Clint Eastwood 2. November Has Come Honorable Mentions: Empire Ants Tomorrow Comes Today On Melancholy Hill Super fast Jellyfish Dirty Harry Kids With Guns DARE Humility 1. 19-2000
i don't know why i think valley of the pagans is number 1 and then kids with guns. i'm weird and *so* quirky. ohyeah and clint eastwood's rap verse is really good. i still like the phi life cypher one on the g-sides album which is also the original but i digress. i also feel that feel good inc. is good but not as good as everyone thinks. the vocals are perfect the rap verse is REALLY good. and that bass is hypnotic, BUT that guitar just feels so out of place and i don't know why. ever since i started playing rock band and heard this song and played the guitar i noticed how weird it sounds. idk.
My top three favorites fell at 64, 90, and 61 respectively. I'm a huge fan of the debut, what can I say? Lol Slow Country never got old for me. I could still listen to it on repeat for hours. It's such a chill song that still makes me sway back and forth. For Punk, I was a huge Green Day fan before becoming a Gorillaz fan, so I love that genre of music to begin with. Double Bass is weirdly my favorite Gorillaz song. It's so hypnotizing and makes a great background song for just about anything. Yeah, it's repetitive and it goes on for a while, but the story behind the song makes it super interesting. If I read the backstory for Double Bass before hearing it for the first time, the song would sound more or less how I'd expect it. Good list though. I wasn't expecting Latin Simone to be that high up, but I do have somewhat of a love-hate relationship with that song. Lol
double bass is great! honestly when i first wrote this it was higher but part of me felt weird putting an instrumental that high (then again i put orchestral intro super high so idk lmao)
it might just be my overall lack of experience with that album :/ the issue (and the good thing) with the now now is that it’s very consistent so every song is of a similar quality
for all of these specific videos i go through and i listen to the entire artist’s discography and rank the songs on each individual album from worst to best, and then i try to put it all into one large list and then relisten to all of the songs again and change it from there. the thing to keep in mind too, though, is that im a huge fan of the artists i cover, so for example in this case, i already knew all of gorillaz’ music going into the ranking process which helped me compare each song to each other. that being said, it’s a far from perfect system since a year and a half later im pretty mad at myself for some of these rankings lmao
@@yousofalmghari2787 uhhh so far i’m not super impressed with the singles, they’re fine but not super standout for me. i might once it comes out to update it with song machine and cracker island, but we’ll see when we get there!
@@yousofalmghari2787 love the dedication!! for me, most of the songs would rank at least below 40/50 unfortunately as while i don’t think any of them are especially bad, im mostly just not impressed by a lot of them :/ i think the song cracker island is my favorite on the album and would probably make it somewhere in the 40s
17:34 fun fact: I used to listen to this to suppress my bisexuality, no seriously, I'd listen to this whenever I thought sexually of men to distract me, now I just listen to it to remind me of sexy men😂
My only question is where would you rank Sleeping Powder - my favourite song. Otherwise, absolutely great video, and I agree with most of your opinions, but SMP has grown on me, and Hallelujah money is abysmal.
My personal top 10 is very different but I respect the list. I like more of their Hip Hop stuff so Rock The House goes much higher for me. My top 10: 10. Kansas 9. Humility 8. Tomorrow Comes Today 7. Dare 6. Clint Eastwood 5. 19-2000 4. Dirty Harry 3. Do Ya Thang 2. Feel Good Inc. 1. Rock The House And for favorite album: Easily the debut album.
yeah i probably did, i don’t have any connection to a lot of the songs on the fall which makes them rank lower generally, and tranz is just one i haven’t come back to a lot
I like your overall opinion but the placement of andromeda just made me want to scream.it is definitely a high point of Humanz that is overall a pretty bad album
to be fully honest, i’ve maybe listened to like 10 MJ songs in total and i usually only like to make these videos on artists i’ve consistently listened to
I do not get why so much of the fandom likes on melancholy hill. It's boring, too safe for gorillaz's style, and it's not that well produced. Also Feel Good shouldn't have been in the top 5 in my opinion.
I think that "man research - clapper" is a really underrated song. I think it for me it deserve atleast a 40 spot. It is not the greatest but it is pretty catchy in my opinion. Other than that really great list! My top 10: 1 Pac-man 2 Opium 3 Lake Zurich 4 Sweepstakes 5 Clint Eastwood 6 Out of body 7 New Genius Brother 8 Empire Ants 9 Hong Kong 10 Severed Head Also why did it sound like someone else randomly took your spot? 7:46
As a long time Gorillaz fan I still remember when Plastic Beach was pretty generally viewed as the black sheep of their catalogue…which is just wild to think now lol.
