Stylo by Gorillaz featuring Bobby Womack and Mos Def, Music Lyrics and Video
Stylo is a song from the Gorillaz’s third album “Plastic Beach”. It features Bobby Womack and Mos Def. The song is the first single from the album, released on 26 January 2010. About a week before the premiere, Parlophone president Miles Leonard described the song as “a dark, twisted track that sounds like the ‘Saturday Night Fever’ soundtrack on MDMA”.
The song premiered on NME radio on 20 January 2010 and later on the Gorillaz official website, however it leaked to the internet a few hours before both events.
The video was shot in December in Calico Ghost Town, California and premiered on March 1st.
You can listen the song here, this is the official video.
Gorillaz - Stylo Lyrics feat Bobby Womack and Mos Def
overload, overload, overload,
coming up to the,
oh stylo, (juice)
go forth,
blossom in your soul,
when you know your heart is light,
electric is the love.
when the mako flies, (a giant fish)
up from the bottom,
in your eyes,
then I know the twilight skies,
are not so broken hearted. (from the end of the line)
It’s its love of electric,
it’ll be flowing on the streets,
night after night,
just to get through the week,
sometimes it’s hard.
right now.
single cell, (juice)
out of depression,
rise above,
always searching,
if I know your heart,
electric is the love.
there’s only one way,
let it pray a little while longer,
www.musicloversgroup.com
it’s got a way of passing through man and woman,
in another world,
in another world in the universe.
ooohhhhhh
right now here’s what we got to do,
it’s its love of electric,
it’ll be flowing on the streets,
night after night,
just to get through the week,
sometimes it’s hard.
that’s what I’m talking about,
love electricity,
shockwave central,
power on the motherboard,
yes.
push up,
overload,
legendary,
heavy glow,
sunshine,
thunder roll,
keep this on,
yes the (…) (…) are (…) and easy,
a raw cat though raw and easy,
thunder roll,
sunshine,
work it out.
right now.
Song Information
The music video depicts a fast-paced car chase on a desert road, featuring Bruce Willis. Murdoc, 2D, and an android Noodle (with a bullet hole in her head) are speeding down the road in a bullet-ridden, smoking ‘69 Chevrolet Camaro with the word “Stylo” on the front grille. They encounter an inept police officer who pursues the band in a police car. The “Noodledroid”, to Murdoc’s dismay, shoots at the police officer’s car, running it off the side of the road and through a billboard. Bruce Willis, in a red 68′ Chevrolet El Camino, chases down and shoots at the Gorillaz, as the sky turns black with a spectral fog and the Noodle android malfunctions and collapses. As Bruce and the Gorillaz race across the desert, a dark shadowy figure appears out of thin air and envelops the stunned policeman (who is crawling towards his spilled box of doughnuts) in black fog (similar to that in the sky). The video ends with the Stylo car running off of the side of the road and into the ocean, as Bruce looks on contently. The car, submerged underwater, transforms into a fish-like craft and swims out of view.
