2002 single by Gorillaz From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Tomorrow Comes Today" is a song from British virtual band Gorillaz's self-titled debut album Gorillaz and was their first release when issued as an EP in November 2000. The first three songs from the EP ended up on their debut album, however, "Latin Simone" was heavily edited, and dubbed into Spanish, for the album release. The new version was sung by Ibrahim Ferrer, and renamed "Latin Simone (¿Que Pasa Contigo?)". The original version is sung by 2-D (voiced by Damon Albarn) and appears along with "12D3" on some versions of the later-released compilation album G-Sides. The song itself was also the fourth and final single from that album, released on 25 February 2002. It peaked at number 33 on the UK Singles Chart. A demo version of the song, "I Got Law"[4] was included as a bonus track of the Japanese edition of 13 by Blur, Damon Albarn's other musical project.

Directed by Jamie Hewlett, the video for the title track consists mainly of static drawings of the band members placed against real photographs and time-lapsed video footage of London streets. Some of the drawings are animated, especially the ones featuring 2-D singing. This is due to the video having an extremely short deadline compared to its follow-up "Clint Eastwood".
The video begins with writing the band's logo on 2-D's left eye and ends with his left eye by blinking. Graffiti artwork by Banksy can be seen halfway through the video. Trellick Tower is also seen, known for being the birthplace of Gorillaz and where creators of the band Hewlett and Damon Albarn met. The video finishes with the four band members, and 2-D's headache pills, flying across the screen during a fast-motion shot of a tunnel.
