Gorillaz<\/a> and Malian musician Fatoumata Diawara venture to scenic Lake Como in Italy in the new video for their collaboration, \u201cD\u00e9sol\u00e9.\u201d The track and video mark the second installment of the animated outfit\u2019s \u201cSong Machine\u201d series<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cD\u00e9sol\u00e9,\u201d which means \u201csorry\u201d in French, boasts a simmering groove that takes a delightfully dramatic turn toward the end with a steady swell of strings and horns. Diawara and Damon Albarn share vocal duties on the track, singing in English, French and Bambara.<\/p>\n

In the clip for \u201cD\u00e9sol\u00e9,\u201d Gorillaz discover a door in their Kong Studios that opens onto a dock in Lake Como. While Albarn and Diawara cruise around in a speedboat, the rest of the band enjoy the scenery, except for poor Murdoc who\u2019s unable to cross the mysterious boundary between the studio and Lake Como.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaking D\u00e9sol\u00e9 with Fatou was a real moment for me, you know,\u201d Gorillaz drummer Russel Hobbs said. \u201cShe\u2019s an African Queen. This lady made the song what it is, beautiful, like life. What can I say about \u2018D\u00e9sol\u00e9\u2019? They say sorry is the hardest word, but that\u2019s not true\u2026 Try saying antidisestablishmentarianism with a mouth full of gluten-free cronuts on a speed boat without licking your lips.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gorillaz launched \u201cSong Machine\u201d in January with \u201cMomentary Bliss,\u201d<\/a> featuring British MC Slowthai and the punk duo Slaves. The new series will find the band moving outside the constraints of a typical album cycle as they team with an array of collaborators and drop new installments and music throughout the year.<\/p>\n
