Band Name Origins:
- after 2-ds (frontman, lil hottie that he is) lil...accident...he started walking somewhat like a monkey, russel (drummer) resembled a gorilla mainly in his bulk and muscle, and murdoc (bass and self proclaimed band leader) couldnt spell...plus it looks better according to the well educated russel there fore the band named their selves Gorillaz and theyre alterego band was Space monkeyz...but das another story Submitted by: Audra Oppenheimer
- Two Reasons: 1.Lead Singer 2D (Damon Albarn from BLUR) was attacked by a chimp when he was young. 2.Animator and co-creater Jamie Hewlett was the creator of the cult comic book TANK GIRL and in the last issue he has the lead character (Rebecca) get killed by a mechanic Gorilla. And the spelling just looks cooler than the real spelling. Submitted by: Aaron Shanley:Gorillaz Freak

Gorillas and monkeys are two types of primate mammals, and these two bands just happened to misspell the respective terms, so if we combine them, we might as well misspell the word primates!

Misheard Lyrics: Santa's breaking down on a camels back.
Bitch has got to go. Custard, dude no way! So all you failure streets, here's a penny to see. You won't get other Kenny, cuz' you're dead and three. You gotta get a riser, it's the Federal Style. Man, he caught me, damn! Wll we never smell. And all I wnat to hear is the missing beat. Patrice has got a kiss, cuz' we don't get sleet, no. Original Lyrics: City's breaking down on a camel's back.
They just have to go 'cause they don't know wack. So all you fill the streets it's appealing to see. You wont get out the county, 'cos you're bad and free. You've got a new horizon It's ephemeral style. A melancholy town where we never smile. And all I wanna hear is the message beep. My dreams, they've got to kiss, because I don't get sleep, no.. | "Feel Good Inc."

"Clint Eastwood"
Better Lyrics:
I'm hyper,
I'm feelin' high,
I just ate,
A piece of pie,
I'm crazy,
But not for long,
This sugar high,
Is wearin' off.
I'm feelin' high,
I just ate,
A piece of pie,
I'm crazy,
But not for long,
This sugar high,
Is wearin' off.
Original Lyrics:
I ain't happy,
I'm feelin' glad,
I got sunshine,
In a bag,
I'm useless,
But not for long,
The future,
Is comin' on.
I'm feelin' glad,
I got sunshine,
In a bag,
I'm useless,
But not for long,
The future,
Is comin' on.

Dirty Lyrics:
"Feel Good, Inc."
The Dirty Lyrics: Fast Cats,
Linin' em' up like ass cracks Why They're Dirty: Obviously referring to lining up for sex at a club or similar. If you listen to the whole song's true meaning, it is about having mindless sex and that it is better to have sex with someone you truly love, kind of an abstinence thing going on there.

Super Short Pop Songs:
"Punk" Length: 1:36
The shortest song on their first album. Even still, it's a milestone for this album because it crams a lot of Brit-punk sound in that short length.

What A Band is Best Known For (aside from their music):
"Animation"
The singer, bassist, guitarist, and drummer of the band are each represented by a cartoon character (2D, Murdoc, Noodle, and Russel respectively). Their music videos are all in animation (and really awesome, by the way), and I'm pretty sure that you don't ever actually see the main band members at concerts, just silhouettes.
