Does anyone have any more details about this collaboration between Sparks and Gorillaz?
Apparently there's a video somewhere out there but it seems to be blocked for copyright reasons or something like that......

The new Gorillaz album is all collaborations and Sparks are one of those collaborations …I’d say it was blocked as it was a live surprise performance…as a precursor to the album release.
I wonder if Sparks will be cartoonified a la Gorillaz style if there is a video?
Someone (Brightonian I think) pointed out that if Sparks collaborated with Blur would they, taking a lead from FFS, call themselves …

I'm intrigued by the concert also....apparently the 4th night of House of Kong was a concert that was filmed....(no mobile phones were allowed into the venue) and a lot of guest appearances...including Johnny Marr and Sparks!
No doubt all will be revealed soon.......
(On the plus side, the forum seems to have recovered....🥳)

I heard it on Thursday, the sound was absolute rubbish but the song was great.
Let's hope we'll get a proper recording of that track soon!
