Gorillaz’s Souk eye is a song about longing for a relationship in which the singer is willing to be vulnerable and open to love despite any risks. The song reflects Damon Albarn’s experiences with Los Angeles, where he found his first love who he calls “L.A.” The song focuses on the growth and change that occurs between two people who grow together and become more than just friends, but a true connection. It’s a song that is bittersweet and upbeat at the same time. It also speaks about the fact that there will be times when one must leave their beloved and start something new.
