"Amarillo" is a double A-side single with "Revolving Doors" released by British alternative bandGorillaz from their iPad recorded album,The Fall. The word "amarillo" comes fromSpanish and it translates to "yellow".
"Amarillo" was recorded inAmarillo, Texas on 23 October 2010. The song features instrumentals fromThe Clash band memberMick Jones.
NME gave the single a positive review saying "Amarillo is a slow, yet euphoric song that finds Damon's reverb-laden voice evocatively recalling America's vast great interior. One of the more fully formed songs on the album, you get a vivid portrait of a songwriter from the British Isles getting his mind around one of the world's largest open spaces."[2]
