Match it up w/ the most obvious choice in years.

Here's the lyrics:

****************
Kids with guns
Kids with guns
Taking over
They won't be long
They're mesmerized skeletons
Kids with guns
Kids with guns
Easy does it, easy does it
They got something to say no to

Drinking up (push it real, push it)
Pacified (push it real, push it)
Vitamin souls (push it real, push it)
The street desires (push it real, push it)
Doesn't make sense to (push it real, push it)
But it won't be long (push it real, push it)
Kids with guns
Kids with guns
Easy does it, easy does it, they got something to say no to

Because they're turning us into monsters
Turning us into fire
Turning us into monsters
It's all desire
It's all desire
It's all desire

Drinking out
Pacifier
Sinking soul
There you are
Doesn't make sense to
But it won't be long
Cause kids with guns
Kids with guns
Easy does it, easy does it, they got something to say no to

Cause they're turning us into monsters
Turning us into fire
Turning us into monsters
It's all desire
It's all desire
It's all desire

(push it push it real push it)

--Gorillaz
****************

The music is appropriately ominous, almost elegiac. The line "They're turning us into monsters" is what really attracted my attention.

Nice match up, would be interesting to see.

If you think it would work, go ahead.

I don't know the song, and Amazon's short preview is so tinny that i can't make out any words

But the rhythm sounds like it would lend itself to a sort of still-grab effect - a second or so of motion, ending on a beat, at which the last frame becomes a still frame - b&w maybe - that holds for a short time. Like towards the end of "Beautiful Lie", only faster.
