still glad Oasis went ahead and didn't split up during the tour :D

Theres still time they got dates until november 😅

Breakin' Dishes and Feel Good Inc returning is like the aftershocks of the JK and Joel era of the Radio 1 chart show.

Be interesting to see if Breakin dishes can outpeak IINSYFA and not be the lowest charting song from GGGB

Biography

One day in the late '90s, comic-book artist Jamie Hewlett and Blur singer Damon Albarn were sitting around in their West London flat watching TV—a brand-new Panasonic, eight channels on screen at once. Their eyes were glazed, their minds empty. The images just kept coming. This was the dawn of reality TV—shows that turned so-called real life into prepackaged stories and people into cartoons. The question hit them: If culture was already fake, why keep pretending it was real? At first glance, the idea of an animated “virtual band”—the sprightly 2-D, rogue Murdoc Niccals, gangsta Russel Hobbs, and sweet outsider Noodle—seemed a little gimmicky, an art-school shot at mainstream pop. But in retrospect, Gorillaz’s work—the electro-indie pop of “Feel Good Inc.” and “Dare,” the leftfield hip-hop of “Clint Eastwood” and “Dirty Harry,” the bits of American gospel, African folk, and dub—reflected a rootless, fragmented world that has only gotten more familiar with time. That they had no fixed lineup and an ever-rotating series of vocalists and collaborators (from Elton John to De La Soul, Clash bassist Paul Simonon to Afro-Cuban singer Ibrahim Ferrer) not only undercut old ideas of what it meant to be a “band,” it projected a vision that felt communal, even a little utopian, unbound by borders cultural, stylistic, or otherwise. Even when they projected dystopia, they made the future sound bright (“On Melancholy Hill”). Bands are bands. In Gorillaz, we got a living, breathing playlist. - Apple Music

Breakin' Dishes could and should have been a smash hit single at the time so I'm glad it's getting its moment now!

Get in! Love this song and the whole Demon Days album. HUNTR/X and Saja Boys not the only virtual groups in the chart now

Now we're really taken back to 17 April 2005 - the very beginning of the download era - when this debuted at No.22 on 300 vinyl copies and digital downloads. Guerilla tactics, anyone?

I can't think of what context Breakin Dishes could be used on TikTok for (as I haven't seen a single video with it in) but I'm THRILLED to see this in the charts like 17 years later. It was always one of my favourites from Good Girl Gone Bad and I remember being PISSED when they released Rehab instead of it.

Still BANGS aswell.

Who would of thought the stale charts at the start of the year would actually have more Fresher music than now with all the resets 🤭

(Actually enjoying Gorillaz though)

Feel Good Inc. Such a CLASSIC, such a good track, loved it to death at the time it was released.

Akon - Lonely

Is this back cos they're also on tour?
