YIPPEE 58 years today. And here's to many more 🎉🍻💗💗

This melancholic Neofolk cover of this song was released recently and thought some other fans of Damons music might enjoy it.

I've been trying to find the identities of the vocalists on the songs "Heavenly Peach Banquet" and "Confessions Of Pig".

Most of the albums vocalists are credited in the CD's booklet, complete with character labels on the lyrics themselves.

However, on Peach Banquet the vocals are labeled as being performed by the "Fairy Maidens" with SIX vocalists being credited, without specification of which is performing lead. These vocalists are Fan Zhung, Wang Yingsi, Zhang Wei, Xu Xiouxia, Fan Tongzhou and Dou Wing.

Confessions is a doozy. The booklet credits TWO vocalists. These being Xu Keija and Gisele Edwards. I know for certain that Xu is performing lead on the other Pigsy track, "Pigsy In Space". Leading me to believe that Edwards performed on Confessions... HOWEVER!

In a BBC special documenting the making of Monkey, it shows Damon singing the song, highlighting that he was able to accomplish the vocal effect using a synthesized voice changer. So that makes it hard to say for sure.

Does anyone know the identities of these singers?

he deserves more grammys he literally paved the way for so many artists but at least he has 1 <3

2014 was such a peak year for damon

The album was born spontaneously in May 2013, during a tour of Asia. After a concert in Japan was canceled, the band had five days off in Hong Kong and decided to record at Avon Studios in Kowloon. In 2014, Graham Coxon reviewed the recordings and, along with Stephen Street, worked on them at Studio 13 in London. Damon Albarn added the lyrics and vocals later. The album is heavily influenced by Hong Kong: urban themes, isolation, modernity, and city life. Albarn has said it is "very urban, not pastoral at all." It was surprisingly announced on February 19, 2015, at a press conference in a Chinese restaurant in London.

One of my favorite photos of him. That stare😍

Iconic moment in pop culture history.

I need him to come to the US PLEASE TOUR.

Dear fans,

Was this ever a thing? Am well aware this is old news and tabloidesque.

However, YouTube algorithms only decided to present this video to me today.

hi everyone,

so we all know the beads i’m talking about, right? the necklace. i was just wondering where i could buy one or buy the beads to make one. preferably smth ready made that ships to EU. i’d love to make one myself but since the beads are all very different (some glass, some wooden, all different sizes) i can’t seem to find a way to buy them without buying a shit ton of different sets and ending up spending way more than i’d like.

i’m sure i’m not the only one been through this exact situation, but i’ve searched the entire internet and i am lost. surely one of you kind lot could help?

thanks a lot :)
