Add Your New Review About The Song The Reviews about Fire Coming Out Of A Monkey's Head (page 1/1) ------ performed by Gorillaz just lettin ya know | Reviewer: zack | 4/2/2008 so my dad got the gorillaz cd and my friend fell in love with this song so whenever were in the car he tells me to play it. but now we got an assignment at school to write a sci-fi story and this song instantly clicked into my head interesting stuff! | Reviewer: rose | 1/24/2008 i just read what you guys said about mount pinatubo and that is an AWESOME comparison! especially seen as i am actually studying the song for english! but ever thought of it as a view upon the bibles teaching on how last time god sent a great flood next time it will be fire? im not entirely religious but that was what first came to mind for me and i figured that the Gorillaz had just related it back to their personal theme and used it as an analogy...maybe?! what are your thoughts on that one? A parable | Reviewer: Nate | 12/4/2007 Pinatubo or otherwise, this song works as a parable of the West's modern-world occupation (and subsequent mining/environmental plunder) of indigenous lands the world over, be it the US, Mexico, Australia, Canada, Peru, South Africa, etc. The "monkey" works as an analogy for "mother nature," or some other cosmic equilibrium thrown askew. Sounds like Mount Pinatubo to me.......... | Reviewer: Brian | 7/22/2007 When i was in the philippines back in 1997 and then again 1999 and 2000 i had several people that lived close to pinatubo tell me that the reason it awoke after 500 years of dormacy was because people (most likely americans from the near clark airbase) had found that the volcanic plug had a wealth of gold...gems....and massive amounts of valuble minerals and ores and proceded to mine deep in to plug...maybe for many years to such an extent that it eventualy weakened the plug....also... the happyfolk of this song talks about sound remarkibly like the native people that lived near the mountain before the eruptions started...also the contents of ejected material were indead rich with massive mounts of valuble minerals such as copper...zinc....nickel and others... i will now provide you with a link to the wikipedia site so you can draw your own conclutions and the first time i heard the song my thoughts and gut feelings went instantly to the storys i had heard about mount pinatubo...expecially as the songs lyriks progressed....and it all happened the very first time i heard the song....here is the link....its facintaing reading no matter what your opinion on my theroy...and even if it was true there would probably be nearly if not totaly impossible to prove it....(EXPECIALLY if the US goverment was some how involved and/or directly or indirectly responsible).... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Pinatubo awesome | Reviewer: n.d | 4/1/2007 like it even better than feel good inc. aso think that dennis hopper is kick ass Add Your New Review About The Song
