Both were drawn to music. Damon, a Londoner by birth, was the son of Keith Albarn, a former luminary of England's late-1960's psychedelic rock.

This song is so catchy, but since he frequently puts the wrong emPHAsis on the wrong sylLABel, I've never been able to understand the lyrics! magnum opus | Reviewer: andrew ------ About the song He Thought of Cars performed by Blur i totally agree. this song is a fucking amazing ballad about blow "Columbia is in top gear It shouldn't snow this time of year." the entire album is a masterpiece of britpop, each song drenched in social commentary. but damon albarn and blur made the mistake of feuding with oasis. morning glory just had great rock appeal, they were easier to get and listen to. the great escape is pretty heavy stuff really. possibly one of the greatest underapreciated albums ever. What? | Reviewer: Indigo ------ About the song London Loves performed by Blur I was just listening to this song and I'm trying to figure out what he's saying at the end. Can you find that out please? I love this song. | Reviewer: Indigo ------ About the song Tender performed by Blur This is one of the best songs I've ever heard. I've always loved Albarn's voice and it's just perfect in this song. Beautiful really. sad song | Reviewer: chris ------ About the song No Distance Left to Run performed by Blur i like that song. but it's kind of depressing.that album 13 is depressing too kind of. i mean the song's about damon albarn's girlfriend breaking up with him. that sucks. it happened to me. i liked this girl but she hated me after months of always thinking of her. that night somehow i was able to put it behind me and move on. it's not an easy thing to do. ya gotta really be mean and tough. ya gotta be able not to be too heartbroken even though truth be told i was. but i guess she likes me a little cause she said i was cool but too late. anyway sorry about my story there. great song even though it ain't punk. Badhead, but good song! | Reviewer: Kevin O'Sullivan ------ About the song Badhead performed by Blur I think is one of Blur's best songs, at a time at their creative best. It's simple, downbeat lyrics go perfectly with a cool laid back base line and melodic guitar playing. Parklife's most under-rated song... tank thought | Reviewer: adam tribe ------ About the album Think Tank performed by Blur this album , the most recent of blur's , has overcome its usual style of music. In this album the forsum has been knocked down to three due to graham coxon leaving. this album has funky, jazzy , alternative and rock all in one , with songs like "crazy beat"giving t is rock star attitude and to the sorft melodic sounds of "sweet song". all in all i give this album 10/10 great album ! SING! | Reviewer: Savage Garth ------ About the song Sing performed by Blur It's such a simple and perfect song. It's all about finding the truth and beauty in lies and ugliness. The heart sings when things are bad, and this makes them a little better.

Blur: Beetlebum | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Beetlebum performed by Blur Fabulous. put on the headphones and just lie back and lose yourself in this piece of magic. This record is followed on the album by 'Song 2', and shows of the brilliant and diverse writing skills of Albarn and Coxon. he thought of cars | Reviewer: ali ------ About the song He Thought of Cars performed by Blur i love this song, it may well be my favourite in the world! - you may think i must be a lonely depressive but really i'm not. It's really moving and sheer class, i hope you agree. i don't know why blur's great escape gets so much criticism!!
