19-2000 (Soulchild Remix) Lyrics
It's the music that we choose
It's the music that we choose
It's the music that we choose
It's the music that we choose
Ba ba ba
It's the music that we choose
It's the music that we choose
It's the music that we choose
It's the music that we choose
The world is spinning too fast
I'm buying lead Nike shoes
To keep myself tethered
To the days I try to lose
Ba ba ba
My mama said to slow down
You should make your own shoes
Start dancing to the music
Of Gorillaz in a happy mood
Ba ba ba
Keep a mild groove on
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Ba ba ba
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
There you go!
Get the cool!
Get the cool shoe shine!
Get the cool!
Get the cool shoe shine!
Get the cool!
Get the cool shoe shine!
Get the cool!
Get the cool shoe shine!
There's a monkey in the jungle
Watching a vapor trail
Caught up in the conflict
Between his brain and his tail
Ba ba ba
And if time's elimination
Then we got nothing to lose
Please repeat the message
It's the music that we choose
Ba ba ba
Keep a mild groove on
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Ba ba ba
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
It's the music that we choose
Get the cool!
Get the cool shoe shine!
Get the cool!
Get the cool shoe shine!
Get the cool!
Get the cool shoe shine!
Get the cool!
Get the cool shoe shine!
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Ba ba ba
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Day doo de bop
Keep a mild groove on
OK bring it down yeah we gonna break out
Get the cool!
Get the cool shoe shine!
Get the cool!
Get the cool shoe shine!
Get the cool!
Get the cool shoe shine!
Get the cool!
Get the cool shoe shine!

This song makes me wanna runs though the streets jumping off of things
I defenitly like this on better than the original but the original still rocks ;D
a very happy song i'll go with kyofan and nuiman, it's about paths and images we choose, following either our brains or our tails
kind of funny, too
the 19-2000 is also a little mysterious, maybe it's just a way of counting, 1998, 1999, 192000,.... 192001 for those trying to stick around in the 1900's
it's talking about carving your own path in life. "It's the music that we choose" is there way of saying what you do makes a difference in your life. Ya he tethers himself to his past, so that he can remember who he is and where he comes from. Nike is a popular brand that everyone buys so his mom is telling him that he shouldn't follow everyone around him, but rather that he needs to move on with his life and make something out of himself that no one else has seen before. He needs to make his own definition of what's cool.
the next important set of verses is the monkey in the jungle part. the monkey is the mass ignorance in our society. The dumb idiots that we all are, to clarify. So one dumb idiot(monkey) is caught up between wants(tail) and importance(brain) while watching his life incinerate into the atmosphere(the vapor part. since we don't live forever (time's elimination) go for all that you dream of (you got nothing to lose). so, what can we do about this in order for us to carve our own path (please repeat the message). Chace after your dream, do what you think is cool, make what you like cool for yourself because it's your choice(it's the music that we choose)
Think about that for not being a deep song. Undoubtedly it makes sense.
I think they say keepin my grove on and not keep a mild groove on.
this song has improved perfection! how can i possibly be the first to comment on its sweetness!?!?!?!
yea I'm not a big fan of musiq but this remix kicks ass
this song is amazin and gorrillaz kic ass but i have absolutely no clue about wut it means
One day when i came home from school i was just mesmorized by some music i heard from the t.v. It was some chewing gum commercial and ever since i have been listening to this cool song. I can't believe that hardly anyone has commented on it. WELL, ITS JUST PLAIN OLD, GOOD MUSIC.
This such a good, happy, upbeat song. I like it a lot better than the original, but the original has a certain charm.
this song is awesome. however, it's "My mama said slow down/You must make your own shoes/Stop dancing to the music/Of Gorillaz in a happy mood". otherwise it doesn't make any sense.
