Graham Coxon & Damon Albarn - A Long Friendship

[kirika20]

Damon said that he wrote this song while looking at a picture of Graham...after he left the band. You can feel how sad Damon was with that situation "it seems that I never got through to you...I didn't mean to hurt you...come back..." ;(

[ReyElwyn]

oh my... i love them so much! always have, always will...lovingtons xxx

[EmoUndergroundRi]

this is amazing. great job mate!

[TheLiiPot]

it hurts to watch this ... :'( but it also makes me happy somehow ..

whot happend to this wonderfull friendship? 

[Camillegutman]

@BellaStewartRobsten I would say it is a beautiful kiss!!<3

[glitterfreeze1111]

Reminds me of me and my best friend.

[mynameisbeebs]

I think Graham was put into Damon's life so he could know the true meaning of happiness, and because he only had a sister, Graham was like a "brother from another mother to him" :B

But anyway, I love them both <3

[jalucahairo]

this song is definitely for graham.

[Tilly236]

What a lovely video! I can relate as I have a friend I've known over 20 years, we're complete opposites but somehow like soulmates : )

[PineappleKuri]

This is so beautiful, I got tears in my eyes, they look like they should've been brothers. People should learn from friendship like that.

[brownteal21]

I would have liked to see these two make out in public just once... not just in private. Meh I suppose imagining it is good enough for now. sigh.

[SoSayGoodbye1]

well coxon was wrong about them making music alone and it being shit haha

[MegaShakshuka]

what would i give to be the meat in that sandwich .

[msblurgirl]

It's cute, and although gorillaz is clever, it's not blur because there's go Graham.

[NapalmHeart7]

I like how their "looks" mirrored each other. Very much like brothers.

[miwakoJo]

they are so adorable together! I hope they fing the way to communicate now cuz I have this kind of relationship with my friend and- trust me, life without it would suck so badly. I would change into different person. I am who I am because of her!

[StrangeSiliconWorld]

3:03 he looks like kurt at first sight o.O

[metalchik21]

i could handle damon and take advantage of him, or try to do it and take advantage of him...or just dominate him and take advantage of him ;)

[thebobbseytwins]

@metalchik21

Disgusting!

[metalchik21]

shut up would u? :)

[jinglingbee]

thank you for the great,great vid. Seriously. (:

[libertine94x]

this is so sweet!

[Faay95]

Thank you for this wonderful video.

Forever Blur.

[johnfru]

Do they even talk to each other now? at least...

[libertine94x]

well seeing as they have performed together and headlined festivals this year, i think so yess :)

[johnfru]

Oh, that's great. Thanks for info

[misterioso929]

[BillieJoeIsHawt]

3:04 - good times....

[huitzilin007]

3:13

0_0 ...0_0

[BlintzesRLove]

I cried when I read the quotes. Great video.

Thank you.

[LittleMissJoky]

shit...I cried...seriously.

It´s such an amazing video.

Thank you for posting it and remember us of these great times.

[xRachelx1993x]

This is beautiful :)

[greenotaku21st]

OMG

i cried while i was watchin this vid.......

specially in the begining

how those kids could be that cruel with Damon?

this is so Beautiful

is hard to find such a great Friendship like this

is a shame that they aren't together

they'll be together in my mind always

♥

[MitLaCorrida]

greenotaku21st, they ARE together!! watch the blur news!

[Smoody114]

2:11 !!!

cute!

[flyingtrashbin]

this is sooo sweet

back in 2002 i knew that they couldnt end like this

[kendallad93]

what sort of wanker would pick on damon albarn to the point where he became an "emotional wreck"?

[suripopje]

Sweetness!

[sadeyez72]

I have a newfound appreciation for this song. Nice to see that Damon and Graham have mended their friendship = )

beautiful vid, thanks!

[braybeatles]

yes, it's great isn't it. and they are both still producing great music so any new blur material is likely to be good. but above all, they are ok with each other again...

[BillieJoeIsHawt]

great video, really nice pics, good job :D

hey... 3:15 - is that from a concert? if so, which one 0: ?

[DamonAlbarnIsGod]

i know its ages since you wrote this but glasto 1998 when they were singing death of a party

[itemliz]

nice vid, the song is excellent, and blur is more than "mylife".. 20 years of (musical) love... more than a marriage, indeed, thanks for sharing !

Liz

[sinnvollproductions]

Nice video but you should have chosen a song on which Graham is playing, too

[artmarty88]

this is very moving! I am not a big fan of Blur but just looking at this video makes me wish they will be friends again someday!

[davedaveydave]

That was lovely, I wish I had a best friend like that. Or even a friend!

Im so lonely!

[lindadox]

i lol'd so harda t this being written by 'dave'

[cnhappy1]

@davedaveydave I agree with your sentiments.

Great song choice. :)

[iwish4it]

uhm where did u get the words in the beginning?

[t1racyjacks]

many quotes are from Blur's 3862 Days biography... others can be found in assorted other blur books (there were tons of them produced at that time) :)

[n00dlesbff314]

Where did you get those pictures??? omg and what keywords did you use?

[n00dlesbff314]

eeeeeeeeeeee! so cute.

[iwish4it]

aww that was so sweet.....

[saborranchero]

wait... are they friends again?

[malamalama]

so young...so beautiful...must it all pass so quickly??

[nikican]

I miss the 90's too. Stuff, life, wasn't quite so poop then as it clearly is now.

[juleswinns]

I miss the 90's

[blackaristofon]

great job. Made me cry... Thanks for share...

[Jazzthemuffin]

This song is about Graham... right?

[tweetermkyman]

They are baaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pepsilight9]

back together, wooo hooo

[blrgrl]

You did an amazing job on this - wonder if Damon/Graham caught this while surfing this site! :)

[takot88]

cool!, and now (hopefully) their good friends again, might take awhile but..

[brnc23]

where did you get all those pics? i really misss blur is my favourite band ever

[ablurida]

where did you get all those beatiful pics???

[pedrowasabi]

I think that Damon wrote this song ro Grahan

[Wonhsuan]

nice video but it's sad :(

I miss Blur

[notavel10]

I wanna Blur back !!!

 So many saudade.... :(

[VaNSaNT85]

whats the name of the song ?

[BellatrixOrionis]

I love both of them!!!

Thanks for this video...

[ronnieleta]

The gig where Damon kissed Graham is at Glastonbury 1998 during Death of a party (it's on youtube). Thanks for the video.

Cheers!

[msbgyn1]

That were brothers in the last incarnation! Friendship is superior to love!

[gabranth727]

are they gays? in one picture theyre kissing

[tedbear74]

so what they are?

they're very cuuuute X3

[msbgyn1]

They are not gays, is only a matter of reincarnation!

[msbgyn1]

No !

[notavel10]

Friendly kiss :)

[ronnias27]

Thanks for the video. Great job. Cheers!

[dayuponday]

this is beautiful, because actually this song makes me feel kind of sad, but it is beautiful :'(

thank for the video, great job ;D

[byrbypypy]

Two marvellous men! Stop playing boys, rebuild Blur for us pleaaaaaaaaaaase :(

[bilwit]

lol the skins would beat up Damon, little did they know Terry Hall would hold him in such high regard when he grew up!

[phonicfred]

:'( bring my two greatest lovers in the world back together please god! :'(

It's like he's died :( :S

[maximospark]

"As you can see, the family unit to the right of us are enjoying the £10 meal deal..."

anyone with 'starshaped' will know what i'm talking about haha

[Jaymunarz]

so fucking sad... they still have contact?

[bgmont]

which is also pretty sad:P

[bgmont]

are they gay?it will be really sad if they are

[dayuponday]

they are not gay, both are married

[imanegativecreep]

I think it would be sadder if not gay - very cute couple but unfortunately don't like eachother anymore. This would also make my love for Damon forever unrequited.

[bgmont]

yeah....but don't worry,I think they're all gay.I bet they split up cause Damon stepped out on Graham with that Gorillaz animator Jamie!

[imanegativecreep]

Yeah and Graham's with Paul Weller now. He had a fling with Pete Doherty but was just on the rebound, there were no real feeling there.

[Konformation07]

actually graham has come back to blur

[imanegativecreep]

Actually he hasn't - don't challenge me on anything Blur-related. They all met up and had lunch in October but they just had a chat - nothing musical. Damon has said in interviews that he rarely sees Graham now but every time any of the members of Blur do a side project thing the rest of them go and watch it at least once. Axtually.

[Konformation07]

they are on a current hiatus graham is doing his own thing now

[imanegativecreep]

I know.

[iluvmorrissey]

Very good, great pics, yes a great frienship indeed. That song is soooooo beautiful!! Shivers down my back everytime!

[coldspagetti]

Which is the concert with the kiss O: ?

[byrbypypy]

lovely pics, lovely song, lovely men...I love both of them! their musics are great but I still miss Blur :(

[Megorillazfanyay]

read the third quote lol

[blurface30]

graham is rumoured to be back for next blur album. damon said the door is always open for him. lets hope so eh..

[MrsAdonis]

boohoo i HATE this song now

[romelovesdan]

Patch it up. C'mon fellas!!A reunion would be spectacular !

[noodleola123]

love it! Damon and Graham really are real friend ;)

[blurfan93]

yeah! the song's just lovely but so sad!

:'-(

the album's think tank.

[rockinforthemusic]

love this song. which album is this?

[romelovesdan]

Audio is a demo for "Think Tank" album.

[cupnoodle0718]

was that a demo?

I thought it was the real album trackXD

[blurismylife]

No, it's actually in the album Think Tank.

[blurfan93]

aww sweet!

well done blurismylife, it's really good and yet sad..but happy in a way!

:-)

[rockinforthemusic]

what happened between them?

[velouria91]

well thanks, this pretty much made me want to cry

[tmcsquire]

Touching. (though did Graham work on this song?) Reminds me that I really love blur. Saw them in concert, really showed the band's dynamic and importance of each member. Graham, come back!

[mayaoo]

i miss :'(

[rockinforthemusic]

What happened between them?

[FlyingFoxOz]

What a lovely video. You're obviously a big fan, and therefore this was probably a 'labour of love'; nevertheless, the effort is appreciated.

[blurette]

i love them both so much - fingers crossed for a new Blur album ...

[Schizo9292]

it was so cute, i think they are a great team! they are awesome, well i love blur, but damon and graham son la ley yeah!

[haillexi]

Aw, well at least they're still very good friends even if they're not making music together.

Though that may change soooooooon~! *praysBlurwillreuite*

[AnnerisceRosa]

Aw, that's so sweet, I think I might cry.

And yes people, that is a kiss at 3:15. It was done to shock the audience. Good idea. ;D

[marzichan]

brokeback mountain

[dotnotdot]

fair comment,more 'women in love' i thought.

[kindomofdoom]

So sweet<3 And sad..

[MarthianVanhaus]

i really like the video...its a little bit sad...well...is really sad xd...thnx for the videos...blur rules

[Genthebatgirl]

I wish they would've stayed friends. I hope that they'll work together again... (I heard that Blur is going into studio this autumn... but rumours about Coxon rejoining are dismissed, so I heard)

[topcats69]

Lennon and McCartney of the modern era

[leftleft12345]

WHAT A JOKE THAT COMMENT IS

[RAinteractive]

It's called Sweet Song from Blur's "Think Tank"

Sweet moments. Thanks.

[olili56]

what's the name of the song??

[Killianfe]

Wow!!! This video is really sad!!! Blur is still a great band...I hope they can start working again together.

[lomo82]

Damon might have viewed this vid as he has admitted that he looked himself up on youtube in a interview in the lastest GQ mag

[saltnpash]

Luvvin it well done!

[lpgdcp07]

gay video

fact

[JohnnyThreePants]

Good video man.

[Chazfixuplooksharp]

Ohhh How I miss you Graham

[blurismylife]

Thanks for all those 65 comments, people! I'm very glad you all like it :D

[ElasticPlayer]

Wooo, simple slide show at the perfect speed, with perfect music and perfect pictures. You know how to please us ^^ cheers.

[phuzehatz]

omg! I grew up idolizing these two guys and i felt out of love with blur itself when graham was kicked out. I cried when i saw this! I'm so glad they're givin it a go again!

[sferb]

1:36 KILLLLLLSSSSSSS MEEEEE omg that is some hotness

[Genthebatgirl]

So true. ahah. That's hot.

[ChocoBocco]

They're more alike than they realise, dont you think? Both a bit shy and akward, but genuinely lovely guys. They just have different ways of showing it. It'd be a real shame if they wrecked their friendship over the music, that's not what music's supposed to be about. And it sucks for fans, too, like the Gilmour/Waters fued! Well, not that bad. But you get my meaning.

[tracyjoycelee]

it is all about graham!!please came back again

[zannlord]

madre de dio!

[kasilegal]

porfa! como me consigo ese viedeo!!!

es hermoso!!

[jakob3k]

Really moving! I especially liked the quotes in the beginning. :o)

[turtle731]

Its official Blur is going to reunite. They're going back to the studio in August.

[t1racyjacks]

I thought I read on pitchfork that graham said they're not. I dunno, Damon pissed Graham a lot didn't he, when Graham got kicked out of Blur.

[GorillazVideos]

he got kicked out? i thought he left on his own to do his music.

[damonsjellybean]

yeah he got kicked out cuz he stopped drinking and the rest of the band kept drinking and things got hectic, also he had a baby and was really stressing out so he put sress on everyone else. thus getting kicked out...sad really

[almofan89]

Thats not entirely true - musical diff's and drinking are the main 2. Graham was into the Libs etc and Damon wanted to travel to Morroco to record an album that was musically influenced through regae etc

[spongebobslushpants1]

Yeah. Graham quit right in the middle of the album that blur was doing, and appearantly, blur is reuniting damon says.I wonder what'll happen to the good the bad and the queen.

[spongebobslushpants1]

Yeah almofan89 is right. Read the book about damon's old band gorillaz, and he always talks about how Reggae was always playing on the gorillaz tour bus.

[spongebobslushpants1]

WHAT turtle731!?!? Blur's reuniting!?

[turtle731]

yeah go to blurtalk. com/news and you'll see what i mean.

[almofan89]

Yeah they are all going into the studio autumn time with Graham :D

[spongebobslushpants1]

in the autumn? that's nice.Blur was one of my favorite bands back then.lol.Still are,actually...^_^

[marokokisetter]

t'was quite touching. lets hope they'll reunite to make another great round of british music.

[JynxTitangirl]

OMG this is perfect!!! You captured their essenceXD!!! I feel like I know Damon now, more than just the guy who did Gorillaz and Blur, he's a regular guy too, awsome job!

[spongebobslushpants1]

Aww I love those quotes! poor lil damon was called all bran! just in case yall ppl don't kno-(the cereal that makes u poop).I feel sorry forr him. that's probly y alot of his music in gorillaz and the good, the bad, and the queen is..depressing. (_) BUT uuuugh! Smooching on stage! Noooo! Not damon!

[ronostommo]

someone should send this to their record company. i think damon and graham would like it.

[angelting93]

yeh - rlly moved me too - perfect combination of song and pictures - theyre friendship couldnt be more valuable

[trucuku16]

wow, this video really made me emotional....the song fit perfectly to the pics and to the meaning of the video....they were best friends and all the things they lived together cant never be forgotten..i mean you just see the love between them friendship love.one of the best loves..i hope they get back together to make good music....

[mirjami83]

Aww... that is so sweet. Those two... I bet they really love each other. That's why they've had it so hard every once and a while. I loved those quotes too. All the best people have been bullied...

[boredntired14]

nah..they aren't kissing. they're sharing the microphone cuz they're singing at the same time. looks like kissing tho.

[bgrant19]

Really sincere video. Or at least I see it that way. thanks for sharing. :-)

[bgrant19]

I meant that there long time friendship seems to be sincere. That's all. I didn't imply that they were romantically linked. I just really like how the slideshow with the song just made a perfect match. ;-)

[angelting93]

made me sad - i loved the quotations at the beginning

[GorillazVideos]

I actually started crying... It made me realize why Damon wants Graham in Blur again so much... And the song didn't exactly boost my spirits lol...

[franzinsnow]

amazing!

What's the title of the song?

[starshaped68]

Sweet Song. It's from Think Tank.

[HappyLandfillMonkey]

At 03:14 are they kissing or something coz it's creeping me out O_o

[Nyandra]

looks like it to me.

[sayapicolyn]

i love them.

[Nunnix]

me faz chorar quando eu assisto :~

[RubbishDK]

They used to snog on stage, so that's probably what they're doing here as well.

[GorillazVideos]

Oh-kaaaaaaay.... Can you send me a link to a video if there is one? Pictures? That's really creepy.

[pollyethylene]

CREEPY!!! Then why do you want videos of it eh?!?! 'Cause secretly you know it is extremely sexy? I think yes.

[GorillazVideos]

xD hahahahahaha oh yes, secretly lol.
