the charmless man-blur

[Summoner455]

geez damons talent just... screams out of his subtle act while singing. it's quite amazing to see. wonderous to watch. i'm ecstatic i found this man :-)

[whitneybarros]

Blur is awesome.

Jean-Marc Barr is hot.

Chubby on the video, but still a hunk.

[xanthein22]

i love this song ! but its scary how close it matches my and my sisters reationship...

only female version, im damon, shes the guy in the suit, everyone in the family has had a good laugh about it over the years, only i will never have a record deal, and shes is auctaly a successful lawyer

[ChordalFreak]

The 90's OWNED.

[juleswinns]

The video still holds up. Very cinematic

[lynus111]

I find Damon a bit of a charmless man to be honest, the miserable old sod.

[fu22yli22y]

THat is the whole point of the song!!!!!

Love it!!!!!!!

[lynus111]

I mean in general :)

[fu22yli22y]

sorry i didn't mean any offense!!!! =)

[lynus111]

You didn't cause any.

[ablurida]

@lynus111 Well he ought to be. This song is about himself, too, y'know. :P He admitted it.

[pietrogutta]

nana nana na na na

[brownteal21]

he doesn't see his days are tumbling down upon him.

my favorite part of the song, and i love this video because damon is all over the place!!

[serendipitysoul]

Damon is SO HYPER.

[theebestdamnthingg]

One of the greatest bands of 90s

This is their best song EVER <3

[WooshOnGuitar]

The Universal. that is the best song ever.

[theebestdamnthingg]

I think that's the best VIDEO ever

[WooshOnGuitar]

yeah it is

[msbgyn1]

The best video ! I Agree !!!

[ablurida]

ahahahah I say that about nearly every one of their videos...

[HelmetArmstrong]

Hi, PLEASE check out my channel. I did cool acoustic cover songs. I even did an acoustic cover of this song "Charmless Man" by Blur and I don't think you'll be disappointed. I BEG of you to please check it out. THANKS in advance.

[kickballjedi]

Has anybody commented on how this song is a rip on Morrissey? "Charmless" man instead of this "Charming" man... "would've like to have been Ronnie Kray, but nature didn't make him that way.." The Moz loved the Krays, and they sing about frilly shirts, etc..

[cndmartyr]

Ya but Moz is still around, making excellent music and touring...and Blur???? Maybe they are the last of the not quite so famous international playboys?

[lynus111]

Graham Coxen has always struck me as 16 clumsy and shy. :D

[666rocko]

this was very much the end of the old blur, and the end of the singles off, the great escape, i remember at the time, i was surprised they released another single off that album

[freshfreshcappucino]

I met him in a crowded room, where people go to drink away their gloom.

[faresgila]

jumpin jumpin

[Killarapp]

I wish they got alan partridge to be the 'charmless man'

that would have been one of if not the BEST THING EVER

[Tetlowgetlow]

quite obviously anyone who said blur are emo are bloody stupid. This is a band who helped form the brit pop era and famously divided indie culture with the brit pop war. silly little emo boy

[WhoSnake13]

actually tolkilina emo started in the 80s with bands like embrace,rites of spring and dag nasty but it was more like post punk and less like the shit that emo is now

[tolkilina]

Hey 596456, back in the 90's Emo's didn't exist... ...THANKS GOD! if you are emo and u like them, doesn't mean they are, dear ;-)

[Schizm09]

in fact they existed. There were not just this gay as this degenerated mental kids sugest.

[passmearizla]

classic tune

[oasismonkeyslfc]

Damon is mental in this... in a good way ;)

[596456]

a question they're EMO because i'm emo and like that music is cool the music i loved the way that they sing his songs!!!!

[oasismonkeyslfc]

No Blur isn't emo... they just sing like cockneys :s

[rodgeriguez]

how the heck is Blur emo?

[Schizm09]

no, you have just big nasty mental  problems.

[596456]

hooo you are so funny men !! but fuck you !!! jajajajajajajajajajajaj

[Schizm09]

YOUR MOTHER.

[596456]

what you mom is a bitch ?? i think so because the other night she blow me dick and stole me 5 bucks!! jajajaj i love you mom moron of shit!!

[Schizm09]

emos can swear too ? much i have to learn :o

[Melteado]

you know the emos are man

[ruderkonge1976]

Graham looks really wasted in this video

[CindyBear55]

I love when Damon gets shoved at 1:43 and 2:43, he just gets up and keeps singing!! LOL

[mila83911]

Damon is great.

Luv him :D and Blur

[Griptease]

[jonnyroasta]

Totally my favorite video of theirs and maybe song too YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

[kickinphillysugar]

I love Damon Albarn. :]

[papilusion]

Everybody who loves his smile at the end, RAISE YOUR HAND!!! *raises hand* =D!! I can't help it, but I love it! Damon does the same kind of smile in The Universal xD

Blur is great!!

[papilusion]

And I don't understand why I get thumbs down.. >_>

[killerman1995]

I dunnno possible people arnt to fond of smile?

[papilusion]

Yeah, I guess so.. |D

[Ixkingdom]

[becca19922007]

nicely done :)

[Gibbotree16]

One of their best songs just not that popular

Gibbotree16

[julianbarry]

Good old blur, " I think he'd liked to have been Ronnie Kray but then nature didnt make him that way"

[Bree0973]

i luv his voise

[kickinphillysugar]

Learn to spell, retard.

[haylers47]

haha! Love how at 1:15 alex stands on his tippy toes when damon hits the high note. XD

[bobgrantsbus]

Song reminds me of a brilliant trip to Spain.

Loved it!

[ensconce]

ha haa ha, I like this song

[unuclear246]

shhh nerds

[Ixkingdom]

heh...well said!

[simonzon]

erm...that wasn't quite what i said!

[WeezerFan4Ever]

I miss the 90's so much. Maybe it was because I was a kid/teenager, but the 90's were so good imo. Turning on the radio and hearing good music like this instead of the shit we hear nower days were great days.

Fuck rap, music with guitars and feeling is what I care about.

[simonzon]

still, that's no reason to speak so hatefully about the music you don't like. don't forget, musicians like blur are greatly appreciative of diverse spectrums of music, including rap. there are always good & bad records but i think its very sad that entire genres of music can provoke such narrow minded backlashes, which is the very opposite of what this great art form should inspire.

[Somedude812]

well said

[TheDropNZ]

Yeah mate - if you can handle it, listen to Lupe Fiasco, and perhaps, for something sharp, harsh yet intelligent, Immortal Technique.

There's plenty of shit G-Tar music out there too. We just got to filter out the crap!!

[MLAshadow]

yea man, I miss the 90's too.

-Sigh-

I'm fourteen....

[MrDeverill]

Well you would hardly remember the 90's ^^

[rideltrompeta]

one of the best videos ever, so funny!

[Noizchild]

Stalker Blur! Gotta love it!

[KingBalah]

this song reminds me of my schooldays!............thanks for posting

[dummernikken]

[IndieSoup]

[uktah]

[IndieSoup]

[laulepoisson]

[frenchlicious]

NANANANANANA.......... Je chantais déjà cette chanson quand j'étais enfant........ I love this song !!!!!

[Grinnaway]

[Zhadreeck]

jajajajaja funny

[animeoflove]

this song is funnyyyyy

who likes SONG 2

HAHAHAHAA ok bye

[barneylec]

Saw the big blue last night and wanted to find out what else the lead actor had done.. Charmless Man, apparently!

[actionvan11]

the big blue is a great film with JM Barr but he has also been in many other films like La sirene rouge, crustaces et coquillages , le divorce, a chacun sa nuit and so on....

[deina2in1]

try "Too much flesh" ... totally f**ked up movie but great.

[squirehorse]

heard this song was about the guitarist from suede forget his name ... something butler bernard i think

[addolcire]

Would like to stay in a lift there instead of charmless man.

hohoho)

[bink9al4]

long live to damon albarn

[gaspadlo]

lol I love listening to 90's songs when every teenagers are listening to stupid Hip-Hop-Hop or wtf, this is real music, rap or hip-hop is mostly poem, not music:( and mostly poems about shits:)

[rugbystewart]

couldnt agree more! (and im a teenager by the way lol)

[89stec89]

same here

[noogies]

yes me too

[MarthianVanhaus]

yeaaah blur rocks!!

[wildboymusicuk]

You're absolutely right!! Well said.

[leiadancergurll]

I couldn't agree more! I too am a 13 year old who loves to be unique and listen to 60's- 90's music. I'm of other teenagers who do the same! =) You're respected!

[simonzon]

this is nothing but a sadly narrow minded remark and exactly the opposite of what great music should evoke in the minds of those appreciative...its attitudes like this that have made our society so rotten, so dull and so full of rigid divisions and cultural brick walls.

[MoxieMule]

Interesting that you can condemn someone so completely for a single statement. The man hates rap? Clearly he's responsible for the impending fall of civilization.

Or more likely... he doesn't like rap. It's an opinion. One he's entitled to based on the rap he's been exposed to over the years.

Meanwhile, you've encountered him here, and made the snap judgment that he's a narrow minded bastard who eats puppies raw, while trying to stifle the world's creative thinkers.

It's just not so.

[roddy2k6]

your a tosser. just enjoy the tune.

[mrsvantango]

Amazing song...shows Blur at their most versatile.

[MrSupernova]

sure it's nice, half of it is copied from Back in the USSR (Beatles)

[melonsize]

its total paranoia haha

love it

[lickicatsbum]

Blur are the most versitile group ever to have picked up instrumens ABSOLUTE QUALITY (YOU CANT ARGUE FACT)

[shadowwen]

what genre is this?

[SugarSpunLovesYou]

Britpop. At its best mid-1990s. They were glorious days.

[galammoth]

gardemet kau lahat mwhehehe

[53638892]

1:05 - sweet move damon

[WierdPivotDude]

yeah, the knee slide

[bestnewbands]

blur are a great band this is a tune!

[spadgm]

Pure genius!

[jonathanprice666]

I'm only 16 and i love blur there such a good band

[lucasmical]

blurs best song by a mile...how come no1 else thinks so?...underappreciated!

[Northfleetjoe]

I agree, I don't like blur accept for this

[McDicker96]

i kinda like song 2

[rickygol78]

The atmosphere is very similar to the movie "Punch Drunk Love", directed by Paul Thomas Anderson.

[JevonJonesisahomo]

is this about the guy from suede

[freffra]

I love this song. So nice

[ugar]

oh yes, this is what i call "obsession"!

[Fakeitaway]

Damon is hooooot

[mashedupadup]

Blur, great song, terrific video. I'd forgot how talented and funny they were.

[kabo3lives]

This song was playing when I got my first kiss. =)

[OnlyOneWoman]

Am I the only one who gets super horny when she watches this vid? Damn that bald Charmless Man is fucking sexy ;-)

[Armandeus32]

If you think he is sexy here...you should see The Big Blue from 1988. Even Sexier!!

[OnlyOneWoman]

is running for the video shop yelling 'thanks' to Armandeus32 ;-)

[davesmith7891]

There's no hope for some people.

[OnlyOneWoman]

Come on Dave, don't be so hard on yourself...

[davesmith7891]

I was only being light-hearted. I actually thought your exchange was very funny.

[spadgm]

One of my favourite music vids ever!!

[ELCICLONETE]

bnfgn

[MartyasaDandy]

Appena sentii sta canzone me ne innamorai subito! è stupendissimaaaaaaa...w i blur!

[headphonic8]

I love how it shows the polo sign at the start.

[89za27]

[LeylaRandomness]

[bobbyland34]

[headphonic8]

I love damon's jumpin'. xD Too cute/awesome/hilarious

[amberlondon66]

"I think he'd like to work with Ronnie Kray,but nature didn't make him that way". How clever is that? Bloody excellent!!!!

[OSCARETEMIEL]

[Zackiskool99]

[petitpois12]

[AutumnDevi]

oh my godddd, the last frame of that video with Damon staring directly into the camera just KILLS me...he's soooo hot!

[kissakou]

yer it does kill me too @_@

omg so hooottttt

[shattermuse]

I reckon this'd make a good story. I'd read it... spose it's a typical set up, but I still havent actually read it. yknow, the charmless man and the earthy muso or whatever, & the competition involved.

Really captured something, this song. U rock Damon!!!!

[ElectricSheepPrdctns]

I want Blur to follow me around everywhere!

xD

[bassydaisy]

i like the idea of that =)

[shattermuse]

Is there a waiting list? :D

[AutumnDevi]

yessss!

[77GreenBeads]

THis song is all about my boss...

[albarnaholic]

The stupid of Rubenauer right down, he's telling that blur is a charmless band!? it's obvious he doesn't know good britpop and it's obvious he hasn't listened to oasis: is a great shi(t). Live on blur! and what a great song is charmless man, as everything albarn does: greatful!

[albarnaholic]

El imbécil de rubenauer diciendo que blur es a Charmless band? se nota que no conoce buen britpop! y como se nota que no ha escuhado bien oasis: completo es una mierd... ARRIBA BLUR y qué excelente cancion es charmless man, como todo lo hecho por albarn: magnífico!

[bassydaisy]

O Yea!!!!

[rubenauer]

nananana la peor canción de Oasis es mejor k la mierda ésta. Joder está le hizo la competencia a Wonderwall que tampoco es como la ponen, pero bueno los Oasis le meten lo que no hay en los escritos a los maricones éstos.Blur is a Charmless band

[SolidSnake985]

at 2:30 damons liek 10 feet in the air lol!

[shattermuse]

i always wonder how he manages to get that high up... it's like what the hell?!?

[jakolene]
