Haha, sorry if I mention this, but towards the end, he gives the most amazing Murdoc-like toothy grin. It's great. I'm a huge fan of Gorillaz, which eventually led me to like Blur. But this video's great. He did well here in sending a sort of awkward, yet secretive message.
@sharethscene en primer lugar yo no he insultado a nadie, en segundo lugar, una vez hable con Cerati cantante de Soda Stereo en ese enconces y comentaba sobre un plagio y una posible demanda, pero por motivos fiscales o algo asi no pudo ser
@sharethscene en la portada de Soda y el Video de Blur existen unos 6 meses y medio de diferencia, lo cual le daria el gane a Soda Stereo, lo siento si ofendi tus sentimientos
Its funny how not even the fans of a band would know what in the hell they are preaching,but know many other useless things about them,no wonder these guys stopped.........
Może u mnie wypijemy w piątek lub sobotę flaszkę i potańczymy, albo w tifku? Ostatnio próbowałem tańczyć z Jabłońską , była tak sztywna, że nic nie mogłem poradzić w tej kwestii:(
haha, thats one of the funniest things ive heard in a while, to be honest i think blur only have afew good songs, im not sayin the others are bad they just dont stand out, and for your info i hate oasis, they have a few classic songs but appart from that there just a rip off band.
clockwork orange? HOLY SHIT I JUST DISCOVERED THAT MOVIE LIKE A DAY AFTER I POSTED THIS COMMENT! went i come to think a bout it this does kinda remind me of that =/
What you on about my accent for? Have you got some really advanced youtube or something? I have the same accent as these guys (the band). Listen to their accents instead because I'm confused.
god this video is amazing. i remember when it came out; i was just getting into watching MTV and such. damon kinda scared me a bit, but i was intrigued too... lol.
oh and to respond to many comments on here... good music is out there, its just that most of it is not in the mainstream. if you search hard enough, there's some good stuff out there.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Ah ah ah ah girls bands like "girls Aloud" are more famous in the world than former music bands like "BLUR" in 2008 ah ah ah ah ... UK music becomes more and more shity every year. No more new talents!
I think so, but in america it happens the same, we saw an mtv shitty video being repeated 10 or 20 times aday, for a month, then another video then another, that's why new artist are forgotten quiclky, we have to go back to the clasics, this included grunge and british rock of the 90's or brit pop, I don't like that name, cause for me blur, the verve, oasis, are not 100 % pop, maybe coldplay or james blunt,
they're not brit pop, they have a very unique vision of music and smart ideas about life, the media invented brit pop just to find a way to recognize the british rock of the 90's, cause in america it was grunge, in britain they didn't have a movement to name, that's where it come from
They are classified as a Britpop band. They may be unique (they're certainly nothing like Oasis), but that's the genre they fall into - media-created or not.
This video is the perfect combination between image and music, blur is in the top 10 of bands from the UK, this song brings me too many memories, I love this song, greetings from México.
It just dawned on me that this video would've been made while Clockwork Orange was still banned in the UK. Wonder how many people could've made the connection back then. Great video/song regardless.
Now this is what I'm talking about - intellectual ear candy! Finally a song that speaks against authoritarian oppression ("words are wrong")/totalitarian regime i.e. Big Brother ("satelites in every home") that is inevitable and around the corner ("it could really, really happen"), and the importance of non-conformity, self-rebellion ("just let them go"), & most importantly fostered autonomy, individualism and/or creativism. Blur's best song and hands down a top ten song and video of all time!
The words are wrong to karaoke..... like taking the piss outta people who just go out on Friday nights and have a good time and don't really give a shit.
What prediction. The song got to me because it reminds me that what is "unreal" doesn't mean it can't happen. For example, in 2008, it's likely that people will be less and less immune to the idea of turning a celebrit from that into much less of a human. Or as the year pushes on, things get more and more extreme. That's why I love this song so much.
