Gorillaz to make Christmas speech
Cartoon band Gorillaz will deliver their own version of the Queen's speech on Christmas Day via mobile phones, reports BBC News.
The band's animated frontman Murdoc - voiced by Blur's Damon Albarn - will talk about political, social and artistic highs and lows of 2005.. The speech will also be on the Gorillaz website from 1 January.
"We've all had so many ups and down over the last year with toxic vapour clouds, earthquakes, face transplants, floods in Glastonbury and the end of the old Routemaster buses," Murdoc will say. "But it's not all good news. On the bad side, we've had new music from James Blunt - who needs valium? - Westlife, and more films from Harry Potter. So it really does look like we're just one step closer to the apocalypse, eh?"
