FORMED: 1989, Colchester, England The history of Blur can be traced back to 1980 when Damon Albarn (b.1968) and Graham Coxon (b.1969) met as schoolboys at Stanway Comprehensive School in Colchester, Essex, where they sang together in the choir. 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. Arriving in Colchester in the late '70's, young Damon began studying music. Coxon, who was born on an airbase in Germany, was also the son of a musician. He moved to Colchester in 1977 and was encouraged to learn the saxophone and guitar at Stanway. Alex James grew up in Bournemouth on England's south coast, coming to London in the late '80's to study at Goldsmith's College, where More... (Submit New Blur Lyrics) (Submit New Blur Lyrics) Review about Blur poor song | Reviewer: lee moase ------ About the song M.O.R performed by Blur biggest pile of shit they have ever done! empty lyrics, no imagery and a piss poor video! I reckon damon looks back on this one with disdain! but then thats what growing as an artist is all about i guess! young and lovely is one of the most beautiful things on record in my opinion! so they make up for any errors overall! plus mr briggs (another early one) reminds me of a wet day in colchester as a teen! in a good way!perusing charity shops and buying NME for reviews of elastica and these animal men! they were the frigin days! Woooo hoooo!!!! | Reviewer: j053 ------ About the song Song 2 performed by Blur to the person before me: I heard the songs you said, they're cool (a little bit older), but this song.... I mean, is one of the best of the 90's... it's just... it's Song 2...!!!! As many people, I heard it first in the FIFA 98' SNES game. And to me sounds like a brake-up and it's getting hard to forget it... and yeah, it's a little bit hard to understand british accent when you're not used to it. Woohooo!!!! blur = life | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Song 2 performed by Blur lol yeah that's called a British accent... uuughghhh I hate it when I say something about blur and everyone's like oh yea Song 2 n then they DONT KNOW ANY OTHER SONGS... it's a great song but notttt the best blur song go listen to Chemical World, Globe Alone, Shes So High, Parklife, Out of Time, Coffee & TV, Jubilee....idk just if u like this song then like listen to other blur because they're amazing! I hate u | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Song 2 performed by Blur this song is about a man who had a recent break up.... he wants to forget her bt he nt able to...... he is under depression.... his head is overrun by a jumbo jet... he feels like heavy metal.... he is trying to get away this feeling.... bt he is crazy.... his mind is nt working..... amazing song.... catchy melody....love this song... :) Should have been No.1... | Reviewer: morgan (10yrs) ------ About the song The Universal performed by Blur I saw this TV programme on MTV Two called Blur: The Top All Time 40. I mean, this song was brilliant, I listen to it all the time. In fact, it was No.9. Less than Beetlebum, Tender and Dare from Gorillaz. Who watched it? Do you like the video? Does Damon look great even though he's 41 now? Just wanted to say this is one magnificent song. 1995 rocked! Lot 105- Blur | Reviewer: morgan (10yrs) ------ About the song Lot 105 performed by Blur Parklife was a great album. This song really stands out...this song wasn't infamous. It's a good song- how come the lyrics came at the final quarter of the song? Silly. Anyway, should listen to it... you have to! Blur-Beetlebum | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Beetlebum performed by Blur love this song.. one of my favourites ever... the lyrics are great but you don't even have to listen to them to get the experience of the song, they are so well told in the melody... on repeat just the music will empty your mind and you'll lose hours of time and not know what happened... a truly refreshing experience best? | Reviewer: mighty mo ------ About the song Coffee & TV performed by Blur no doubt this is one hellacious song, but to say it's number one all time is a tough call - especially when a lot of blur fans might not even call coffee & tv their favorite. granted, it's mine and i love this song. beetlebum | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Beetlebum performed by Blur by a long way my fav blur song proberly only coffee and tv comes close a truly brillient song that you can forget were u are lisening to albarn at his finest Ohhh! | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Song 2 performed by Blur Oh THAT'S what he says!!! 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. Why else do people listen to music? lollys reveiw | Reviewer: lisa ------ About the song Parklife performed by Blur that songs great haha my friend sian has got it on sing star me an er dad sing it hahahawere proper gd at it GREAT SONG | Reviewer: Janilson Melo ------ About the song To The End performed by Blur One of the greatest love songs of all time.
