Gorillaz - Dare video

Well, I'm not Asian, and I think this is one of their best songs, period. As for the video, I loved watching Noodle dance and sing, but that was most certainly not the guy I imagined singing in the video. For some reason, I imagined a black guy along the lines of Ali G (at least in terms of looks) singing that part.

...what's so Asian about dare?

but yea - Shaun Ryder def has a distinctive voice doesn't he? Kinda like a garbled mumble... If you're not familiar w/ him or the Happy Mondays, check out the album "Pills Thrills n' Bellyaches" which has some class tunes on it (but be weary about some of his / their other releases)

Dare is a great track - but I will give you that it kinda has too much of a Groove Armada vibe to it (as in it's not that original - not that GA are bad)

mmm, i love dare.
repetitive (more so that ALL of your friends will remark on that) but it's too good.

well, ever been to the Gorillaz House?

Go into the elevator....1st Floor....look left and go into the "bloody door". Look at the door right there to the slight left..."Noodles Room"!
Now that's Asian!
