WHICH COUNTRY
funny american joke
Well played
Aight, let's a-go 0:00 - Colt Woodsman 0:03 - Walther p5 w/sporting barrel 0:04 - Glock(?) 0:08 - Ruger LCP 0:09 - AK-pattern rifle (or some other Kalashnikov variant) 0:13 - Remington 870 or Mossberg 500/590 (hard to tell) 0:14 - Wolt Coodsnam 0:15 - KS-23 (a soviet shotgun chambered in a 23mm length gauge, as opposed to 12-gauge’s 12.7mm) 0:16 - S&W 686 variant 0:19 - Ruger LCR 0:20 - Colt Woodsman; TT-33 Tokarev (to the left in red); Kalashnikov (white in background); Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless (to the right in red); Mauser m1914 'Taschenpistole' (briefly flashed between frames in white) 0:22 - AKs-74u (most likely candidate due to underfolding wire shoulder stock) 0:23 - Walther p22 0:24 - Colt/Browning m1911 or Hi-Power pattern pistol 0:26 - Mauser m1914 pistol (foreground in black); Luger p08 pistol w/grip safety, suggesting a USA commercial-sales variant (background in white) 0:28 - Mauser m1914 pistol(s) 0:29 - AKs-74u (background in black) 0:30 - Beretta m1951 'navy' pistol (or alternatively, a Tariq pistol, which is essentially a copy of the m1951 from Iraq) 0:31 - Ruger LCR revolver (left); S&W model 642 (right) 0:34 - Makarov PM pistol (background) 0:44 - Wilson Combat 1911-pattern pistol 0:54 - With & Smesson P&M 1:04 - Walther p5 (standard barrel length) 1:06 - Makarov PM pistol (foreground in white) Aight that's all the patience I had, honestly a pretty cool lineup that showcases a few lesser-known and characteristically European firearms Also, I am 98% sure that I got one or two of these incorrect, likely more. Any replies pointing this out are welcome as I am not the final authority on the exact models of basic firearm silhouettes.
I'll be damned if you ain't the most american american that ever americaned.
Goddamn 💀
American
It's giving American
the quiet kids backpack
Everyone memes this song, but nobody actually talks about how great it sounds.
Literally. One of my favourite Gorillaz song.
@Jonas Whitt yeah
i know sounds like old blur
Especially the part at 2:40
i do. its legendary and every gorillaz fan should get the message
Horrible how things have only gotten worse 17 years after this was written
@kyle is bored I agree
@Paul Blart yeah true but should anyone under the age of 18 really be allowed one look at all the school shootings that have happened because of minors having guns
@q Okay Statist. Love the Song, but Gun Rights are Human Rights.
@Paul Blart bait
I feel like this is the most underrated gorillaz song I’ve heard
Clint east wood is still better
so underrated that it has over 100mil plays on spotify
*laughs in 5/4*
@DDub04 Rip legend. All caps when you spell the man name.
Latin Simone is a banger. So is Every Planet we Reach is Dead
Honestly this has a really good message and everyone slept on it.
@Lone Wanderer 💀💀
What's the message? Kids with guns committing mass shootings?
The song's probably about young military conscripts, but the same message can also be applied to what poor gun control can cause imo. It's sad that we live in a world where people care more about unconscious fetuses more than the dangers of conscripts and shootings.
@Arachnid Beats ok
So, apparently my copy of Demon Days must have been damaged, because I've never heard this full song, only the beginning 19 seconds, and I thought it was a trolling kind of interlude track all these years. WOW WTF.
@Carolina Reaper HAHAHAHAHAHA-
My vinyl is also broke
Holy crap, I’m the 2,500 like haha nice comment
Pretty sad this is an amazing song
@Isaac Mercado it would just be to the intro to all their songs. Feel good inc. would just be the laughing track and ends right after lol
This song was written because of gun violence in schools. Particularly an event with Damons daughter's school. It's really sad to still see these things happening all these years later. This song would've really had more of an impact if it came out more recently with the rise in gun violence in schools.
@Matteo DeLaPaz yeah, I think he then got inspiration from school shootings as they’re deadlier than knife attacks at schools. possibly got inspiration from the school shooting in the UK that lead to ban on guns or inspiration from US school shootings
@Matteo DeLaPaz I don't exactly recall what the incident was, but it was that incident that inspired him to make a song about violence in schools.
Wasn't Damon's daughter' classmate carrying a knife to school?
The solo that starts at 2:40 to the end of the song is just so unbelievably incredible
@Henrique Oliveira Assunção What has that got to do with anything related to Gorillaz?
@Henrique Oliveira Assunção I did
Never heard free bird?
Yeah...
Russel was going crazy on the drums
As someone who lives in America, this song really hits hard. Ever since Columbine, school shooting just have been getting worse and worse here in the States. Especially down in the south, and I swear, nobody wants to do anything about it. We don't have to get rid of guns entirely, but we need to change the rules for guns. Its not a free country if INNOCENT lives are being lost.
"Its not a free country if INNOCENT lives are being lost." That has nothing to do with anything, it's just an arbitrary statement. In fact, a free country will obviously suffer from an occasional lack of safety. How could anyone think a free country is a place where no innocent lives are lost? That's either a utopia or an absurdly tyrannical dystopia. In reality, it would only be the latter.
@yung unn What a silly comment. 3D Printers can easily whip up a component that turns a semi-auto into a full-auto.
Not going to argue, I wholeheartedly agree with you about a change of rules for guns rather than taking them away because it only leaves us defenseless, especially where it’s hard to get help.
@sprout this is why regulations exist
@no i dont trust the internet That's why gun control exist, for regulations. In Japan for example, you can get a gun there but it's very strict and long process (kind of like getting your driver's license.) As a result Japan is second place of world's lowest homicides rates.
I love it how British people wrote the American anthem.
highlight of my day
HAHAHA i died of laughter
Lmfao
bruh you made my day LMAO
Dawg💀
I wish Gorillaz still made music like this 😭
they do
please listen to the now now
@Brian Bread It's not this climate
they still do what are you talking about
Nah but fr 🙏😭
Great lyrics Great meaning Great instruments used Great beat This song is too underrated, at least dirty harry wasn't underrated
@Free gun fight! 🔫
@Free yeah
@Spade you gonna shoot me?
@Free please stop replying to me I just got out a rage against the machine concert
Teniendo en cuenta que en la historia ficticia de Gorillaz este álbum fue producido casi en su totalidad por Noodle, pienso que esta canción representa sus sentimientos al haber pertenecido a un experimento de niños militares, cómo era ese ambiente y el hecho de que fue la única sobreviviente. Es algo triste, la verdad.
Demon Days has to be one of their best albums without a doubt
A melhor de Gorillaz
So I remember, during my freshman year of High School, a bomb threat was called and my whole school was put down on lockdown. I was stuck in a food closet for most of the day for food class and we all had raisins to eat for lunch, and we are cramped by sitting in the same position for four hours. We heard members of a bomb threat unit walking cautiously, guns ready, outside of the closet moving from room to room. I remember at the end of the day, I was walking out of the building to see men dressed in kevlar gear, hold AR-15’s and shotguns, by the doorway. When I was exiting the building, I was playing this song. What a more fitting theme for a day like that.
What kind of school doesn't evacuate students from a building when there is a bomb threat?
this song is very relaxing for me es muy relajante esta cancion para mi
4 años tenia cuando escuche esta obra por primera vez agradecido con mi mama y papa por darme unos buenos gustos
I remember waking up one day to school and the moment I set my feet on the floor this started to play in my head even though I hadn't listened gorillaz's old songs in a while. Nice job subconscious mind.
One of my favorite Gorillaz songs.
Gorillaz is that one band I can just listen to no matter what mood I'm in and my day just becomes 100% better no matter how relatable the lyrics are - 🇺🇲
I'm so glad I'm still so able to find your music. It reminds me of a simpler time during times when I can appreciate it better. I've loved Gorillaz sense Clint Eastwood came out and I burned the song out over listening. Thank you so much.
history will repeat itself again and again and again..... when will things change? I thought of this song when hearing of the Uvalde school shooting, a tragedy that words cannot appreciate. the shooter in Texas earlier this week was only 18. a high school student. even younger were the 19 of 21 lives lost---by the hands of someone whose brain is not fully developed yet. there's no protecting kids from guns when kids can legally get their hands on guns. why did an 18-year-old have access to weapons designed to kill many people? why does anyone have access to them? is that really freedom---enabling mass homicide? this is, in the United States, the autonomy to take lives away. what is most frightening is that while the cycle of violence, ignorance, and negligence perpetuates, people are hellbent on protecting their "rights" to lethal objects---not working towards prevention and reformation of these heinous acts. while those same people---defenders of gun ownership---type up their tone-deaf "thoughts and prayers", families are grieving, pleading for change, change that could have prevented the loss of their loved ones in the first place. as with all crime, there are many opportunities for preventative measures, and plenty that don't even involve direct policies against gun ownership. the hardest truth, in my opinion, is that the solution to violence involves proactive education and support (e.g., emphasis on mental health/resources), so that no more blood is spilled. it's not as simple as "taking guns away". this is a multifaceted problem that must be tackled at the roots. everyone can agree that gun violence should never happen; that is a nonpartisan issue (check out the PBS article---a list of senators' opinions on the broader subject) but when will everyone put action to those words? whoever you are, whatever you believe, a brighter future for us all begins with educating yourself.
This is my favourite Gorillaz song. It’s so underrated. I love it. ❤️
2-D’s voice is just amazing it’s like an angel with 2 dents in its head
This song is so emotional and I love it. I love the Gorillaz!
I knew it I'm not the only one still listening to this in 2022
Эта песня, эта музыка.. настолько потрясающе..
I used to listen this song 3 years ago and I still remember the hardships I faced so this song actually helped me get hope.
This aged VERY well
Still magnificent, the groove they make.....
What an absolute one for the ages this tune is.
The end of this song fills me with nostalgia for some reason
Same
If I’m understanding correctly, the message is we should give children more access to firearms and I’m all for it
@Benjamin Ramsey but he did not, it could likely be satire.
2:59 I can't, I just- this moment is so amazing, I just don't get as high from any song as I do from this one moment. why is this song so underrated??
Well ain't this just a great song to listen to at school
yoonbum pfp…
No
*slowly reaches into backpack*
Im actually listening to this at school XD
I really like the creativity of the music these people make
gorillaz never fail to make an amazing song
Although this song does not have many visits, for me it has always been my favorite, it has a deep teaching in the lyrics of the song, and that makes it special
This is so catchy yet underrated
This got so popular, they made it into a real thing.
Just like Justin Bieber....
oh no
LOL
It was already a real thing, in third world countries.
r/cursedcomments
I'm fascinated by the concept of a gun with a backwards barrel.
the i-dont-want-to-liveinator! *AAAAAAAA*
suicidals:
true
This was such a good song, they made it canon 12 years later!
This CD is on of my go-to driving albums. 👍🏻 🤠
Vamos a oír más Canciones tan buenas como estás
Gorillaz has to be one of the best bands of all time.Their music is so powerful and unique. Pure genius.
But music is subjective and there really isn't a "best band" and what we think is the best just depends on our tastes and what we like so
This band's much better than the bad excuse for "popular" music today.
@yoavsnake I guess I'll give them another try.
Most of their songs aren't that long, around 5 mins. Also they are very versatile and while the bends is great it doesn't showcase all of they best songs.
@Jannet Ann some of radioheads song last around 10 minutes, I don't really like the full doyathing song by gorillaz because its 12 minutes and quite repetitive
I wish there's 1 less reason to return to this song once every while.
They hit this one right on the head.
Back in 2005 when this album came out, me and all my friends were just torrenting every bit of music we could. The specific torrent I got for this album cut this song off at 20 seconds. I listened to this album for a good 5 years or so, just believing this was a "short but sweet, with a statement" type song. Having a bit of a nostalgia trip and purchased the album on vinyl tonight, just listened to this song and my mind is blown that there is more than 20 seconds to this song. My whole life is a lie.
🎶 🎶 🎶 Lyrics for those that need/want them 🎶 🎶 🎶 Kids with guns Kids with guns Taking over, but it won't be long They're mesmerized Skeletons Kids with guns Kids with guns Easy does it, easy does it They got something to say no too Drinking out (is she real, is she) Pacifier (is she real, is she) Demon souls (is she real, is she) Street desire (is she real, is she) Didn't mean to (is she real, is she) But it won't be long (is she real, is she) Kids with guns Kids with guns Easy does it, easy does it They got something to say no to And they turn into monsters Turning us into fire Turning us into monsters It's all desire It's all desire It's all desire Drinking out Pacifier Sinking soul There you are Doesn't make side to But it won't be long 'Cause kids with guns Kids with guns Easy does it, easy does it They got something to say no to And they turn into monsters Turning us into fire Turning us into monsters It's all desire It's all desire It's all desire Is she, is she real, Is she, is she real, Is she (it's real) Is she, is she real, Is she, is she real, Is she (it's real) Is she, is she real It's real

No I'm normal
They make my tummy tingle lol
I think you should tattoo them in their honor
SAME
Wtf? I haven't heard this in a long time, but the first time I listened properly, seriously amazing man wtf this shit has aged like fine wine honestly hahaha
One of my favourite songs from Gorillaz
Still remains one of my favourite songs ever
I love this song. Seems to be especially relevant these days...
So nostalgic and so in love with this band
Yeah same
everything can be real on L S D
היה שיר כזה? חשבתי שהיה רק אלבום עם השם הזה. אגב אני חייב להסכים שחמש רבעים הוא שיר נ ה ד ר
I used to be a Duck Hebrew. Also, they're letters why did you assume numbers
Temazo, From being a peruvian guy born in the USA, the rythym of the song is so good and the lyrics too.
This is my brother's and my favorite Gorillaz song since we got Demon days back in 2005; its crazy how time flys man.
The backstory behind this song will stick with me forever. A rare song that never gets old and one with an extremely valuable lesson for future generations.
This has got to be one of my favourite gorilaz song
"bass isn't important" murdoc: hold my gun
Davie504:not epico
@worlddestroyer16 a lot of people. I get made of fun cuz i play bass at school and there main excuse is that bass isn't important.
??? who the hell says bass isn't important???
Hahahahahahaha!!!!!!
2:58 this point forward mixed with the visuals gives me chills
@Neoh Yi Woon In the future people will have once another Massacre to compare this song to, It seems like in the US a new one happens every year
Ok Robbs Elementary School shootings meant this song got even more terrifying
gorillaz thanks for changing my life I love you so much I don't know what I would have done if I had never met you
!!!
You know I love how ever song they make makes me feel happy when I am down
Cómo amo esta canción
I'm buying a new Stereo Setup with two ridiculous Floorstanders and a big ass amp. This is the first thing i'm going to play. I'll play the f*ck out of it. Gorillaz
It feels like pacifist angle it sounds hot and heavy like 29scent 🌭🌭🌭
no such thing as too much lol
Yes- Man nah... Kids with guns is better ^-^ :3
bonamin i love it!
nice,what bass?
One of the best songs pleading for proactive action to be ignored ever. God I love the Gorillaz
I remember ages ago, this was the first ever gorillaz song I added to my playlist... and now I’m littually addicted lol
This aged way too well
Me: the song has a deep meaning that I know about Also me:💃💃💃
It's such a good song But it's sad that people don't really care about the lyrics
10 years later and i in love for this song♥️
first time listening to this, ngl its a total bop
I agree
I swear to god my dad has played this at least once before… I know I’ve heard this somewhere
It’s crazy how a song that doesn’t have too many lyrics turned out to be so powerful
How can the Gorillaz be responsible for me loving punk, hip-hop, r&b, Indie, Reggae, in one sitting
@epic. lol oh shit thanks bro just fixed it
Who's Reggie
I really like the message behind this song and the song is awesome 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
this take me back, till my favorite Gorillaz song, those good ole demon days were happy, my music producer friend and me used to always bump this album in his parents car, I remember he would mess around with eq on the car stereo and turn all the high and mids down and just boost the bass, used to amaze me how much doing something so simple could change the sound, I wanna throw him some love as we've been through a lot together, try searching Lonely Gimmick - BEAT 1 ,you may be in for a surprise and he would love to hear your opinion, I think he's really good and deserves more recognition
This song makes me want to make a band called "Gorillas" and then make a song called "Kidz With Gunz"
oranguatang with a boomerang
@Dinosaur it does lol
This comment is featured on a r/MadLads
I see what you did

So far my favourite Gorillaz song
