}} "19-2000", sometimes written "19/2000", is a song from Gorillaz' self-titled debut album ''Gorillaz''. It was also the second single from the album, released in June 2001. ==Background== The single peaked at #6 in the United Kingdom, and reached #1 in New Zealand. The song is notable for its chorus lyrics 'get the cool shoeshine', which later came to be the slogan for Shoe Zone. The single released was accompanied by a completely new version of the song, called the "Soulchild Remix", which was produced by music producers Damien Mendis and Stuart Bradbury. Mendis was asked to remix a track off the album in the hope that it would give it crossover potential, in the same way as the Ed Case remix of "Clint Eastwood" had. Mendis was given a copy of all their demos and finished tracks for the album, being told to "pick (song ) that you can produce, remix or whatever into a hit single". Mendis was unsure which track to choose, and only when he was told that Jamie Hewlett was already working on the video for "19-2000", did he make his decision.〔 The remix appears to utilise the drums from "Sing a Simple Song" by Sly and the Family Stone. The remix is basically a faster, more upbeat version of the song, but with re-recorded vocals as opposed to the sped-up vocals of "Clint Eastwood: Ed Case Refix". The remix appears as a bonus track on the original version of the album, as well as being the first track on ''G Sides''. From 2002, this version replaced the original version on radio stations and television stations. Another version of the song, entitled the "Gorillaz on My Mind Remix", features US rapper Redman, and appears on the soundtrack of ''Blade II''. The Soulchild remix was featured in a wide variety of media, including the Channel 4 show ''100 Greatest Kids' TV Shows'', the 2008 film ''Cloverfield'', a TV commercial for Ice Breakers, as well the title theme for the video game ''FIFA 2002''. Tina Weymouth and Miho Hatori contributed backing vocals to "19-2000", whilst Damon Albarn performed the vocals on the verses. The original version was featured on the licensed soundtrack of the 2001 Xbox launch title ''Project Gotham Racing''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「19-2000」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
