Pirate Jet

Pirate Jet is the sixteenth track on Gorillaz' 2010 album "Plastic Beach", and features backing vocals by The Purple, The People, The Plastic Eating People choir.

Band member Murdoc Niccals stated the following about "Pirate Jet" in a track-by-track commentary:

"'''Pirate Jet' takes the album out swinging, a finale with shuddering jazz hands: “Did you like the show? It was called PLANET EARTH". We’re finished and now everyone’s evolved into plastic. A new breed of human.''

''But y’know, I want to clear this up. 'Plastic Beach'. It's not a green record. It's not a judgement on the world. It's just a picture. Plastic Beach: it's another place, another way of looking at the world. And this is its soundtrack....''"

Trivia

 * While making this song, Murdoc called it "Little House on the Stink Fish", but after 2-D declared it's a "terrible name", Murdoc decided it best to rename it.
