On Cracker Island it was born
To the collective of the dawn
They were planting seeds at night
To grow a made-up paradise
Where the truth was auto-tuned (Forever cult)
And it's sadness I consumed (Forever cult)
Into my formats every day (Forever cult)
In the end, I had to pay (What world is this?)
In the end, I had to pay (I purged my soul)
In the end, I had to pay (I drank to write)
Nothing more to say (I drank to write)
They taught themselves to be a cult
They didn't know its many strategies
Th?y taught themselves to b? a cult
They didn't know its many strategies (Fantasies)
What world is this?
What world is this?
On Cracker Island it was raised (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
By the collective from the grave (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
It only came out at night (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
It ate up their paradise (Paradise)
Where the truth was auto-tuned (Forever cult)
And it's sadness I consumed (Forever cult)
Into my formats everyday (Forever cult)
In the end, I had to pay (What world is this?)
Out there on my silver lake (I was not there)
In the end, it will be grey (Beneath the hills)
I'm like a ship between the tides (I saw myself)
I held on, I survived (Beneath the void)
They taught themselves to be a cult
They didn't know its many strategies
They taught themselves to be a cult
They didn't know its many strategies (Fantasies)
On Cracker Island it will die (Forever cult)
Join the collective in the sky (Forever cult)
And on the shining bolt of light (Forever cult)
Go up to paradise (What world is this?)
Where the truth is auto-tuned (I purged my soul)
And it's sadness I consume (I drank to write)
Into my formats every day (I drank to write)
In the end I had to pay (Forever cult)
In the end I had to pay (Forever cult)
In the end I'll be okay (Forever cult)
Nothing more to say
Nothing more to say
Nothing more to say
The lyrics CRACKER ISLAND of GORILLAZ is also present in the album Cracker island (2023)
Gorillaz è un progetto musicale collaborativo nato dall'incontro tra Damon Albarn, frontman del gruppo Blur, e l'artista Jamie Hewlett, creatore di Tank Girl. Il progetto vede la partecipazione di quattro personaggi animati: 2D, Murdoc, Noodle e Russel, che formano una band hip-hop virtuale. I video musicali dei Gorillaz mescolano animazione, realismo e sound design, esplorando temi di artificio e autenticità nella musica. L'idea per i Gorillaz nacque osservando MTV e la percezione che gran parte del contenuto fosse artificiale e creato solo per il consumo. Nel corso della loro carriera, hanno collaborato con artisti come De La Soul, Snoop Dogg, Lou Reed e Elton John, contribuendo a definire l'estetica e la sonorità dell'indie rock contemporaneo. Alcuni dei brani più rappresentativi includono "Clint Eastwood", "Feel Good Inc.", "DARE" e "On Melancholy Hill". L'album di debutto omonimo (2001) ha riscosso un enorme successo, consolidando la posizione dei Gorillaz come una delle band più innovative e influenti del XXI secolo.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
