LOLOL the On Your Own part was the best because I KNEW what the guy was talking about before they even identified it! I was like omg... I guess it didn't hurt I've been seeing your icon and that gif more often than usual over the past couple days lol XD

I only listened to part 2 though... Anything interesting in part 1 that's worth hearing? I have such a shortarse attention span.

P.S. He was soooooooooooo stoned during the second part omg. It took him like a year to answer one of the questions (I can't remember which) - he kept mumbling jibberish. UGH Damon. If I could only change one thing abt good ole Damo, that would be it.

P.S.S. LOL didn't even comment on the Blur thing... yeah I don't believe it for a second. I mean it might take like 5-10 more years before there's more, but there has to will be more. Damon's an established liar.

lol he took ages to answer questions in the first part too XD He takes the most convoluted route, I think. I had to stop 6 minutes in. "sorry bro, I got things to do" XD You can read the transcript on G-U, if you're interested...

[scarletumbrella]

Ah, thank you, I think I will do that.

[haha1205]

both parts are definitely worth listening to! he just sounds so happy in this interview!

but he def sounds stoned throughout it, ahah.

and i agree about his blur comment. at this point, obviously he's not thinking about blur, BUT SOMEDAY...

[emilenshook]

This is a good example of an interview where Dames is very pleasant and sociable XD

I'm not too worried about the Blur thing. Why shouldn't he be completely focused on Gorillaz at the moment? Besides, we all know how he likes to change his mind. But I'm glad he's owning up to how embarrassing On Your Own is...heh heh heh

[haha1205]

damon's said ~blur is ova~ and ~gorillaz aren't making anymore albums~ and various other shit so many times that i can't take him seriously. tbh, if graham is still up for it, i can definitely see blur happening in the future, probably years from now. because all we all know, graham is the hbic.

and loooool, the "on your own" bit made me lol so hard. i'm glad he realizes how idiotic he looked in it, ahahhaha.

[emilenshook]

God, it's embarrassing to watch, I can't even imagine how it is for him to be like "oh yeah...that's me...trying to breakdance :/" LOL

[scarletumbrella]

LOLOLOL THIS EXACTLY. And that embarrassment was so adorably evident in his voice in the interview lol.

[haha1205]

weird as in the interview's fixation with it is weird or weird in general?

i find it generally crazy that damon manages to convince all these people on his albums, i mean, SNOOP DOGG? WAT

[haha1205]

oh my god i just watched the "dare" video and wowwww

mick jones smiling and paul simonon strutting, plus damon grinning in between them, is too much for me to handle.

"i think regardless of how legitimately good gorillaz are, i'll always be a bit dismissive about them."

aww, i think i used to be that way, but "plastic beach" is slowly changing my mind.

[haha1205]

Hahah, it was so random!

I can't imagine him being productive at home. It's an odd image.

COME TO AUSTRALIA, DAMON. COME TO AUSTRAILA.
