Gorillaz – "El Mañana" синглы және музыкалық видеосы

2006 single by Gorillaz

"El Mañana" (Spanish for "The Future") is a song by British alternative rock band Gorillaz. It was released on 10 April 2006 in the United Kingdom as a double A side, and the fourth and final singles from their album Demon Days. "El Mañana", along with its other A side "Kids with Guns", reached number 27 upon its release in the UK. The song's music video brings back certain elements from the band's music video for "Feel Good Inc.", released the year before.

The animated music video for "El Mañana" was released on 11 March 2006 from Passion Pictures, and directed by Jamie Hewlett and Pete Candeland. The video opens to Noodle on the same floating island seen in the music video for "Feel Good Inc.". Two helicopters, similar in design to the RAH 66 Comanche and the Bell AH 1Z Viper, intercept the island. The helicopters spot Noodle out in the open, and open fire upon her with rotary cannons, but fail to hit her. Noodle flees into the cover of the windmill, narrowly avoiding the rounds which penetrate the walls. The two helicopters smash into the windmill's sails, destroying them. The helicopters continue to strafe the floating island, setting fire to the foliage and the windmill. Noodle stumbles outside as the helicopters appear to break off and fly away, but is spotted. The helicopters turn around and strafe Noodle, but she again narrowly escapes the coming fire, taking refuge in the burning windmill. The island, now heavily damaged, plunges into a canyon below. The camera pans up and away as the island crashes into the ground, exploding. Above the crash zone, both helicopters hover. One of the helicopters opens its bomb bay doors, and drops an unguided bomb into the wreckage. The helicopters disengage, and the video fades to black.
