Blur Beetlebum - Live 2009 - HD

[EnglishChannel1]

Graham's shirt last got an airing at their Alexandra Palace gig in 1994, as seen in the "Showtime" concert video. It spends 15 years in his cupboard and is then aired again for this Hyde Park gig in 2009.

[SCgamer1997]

EPIC

[jacob7207]

What's wrong with the audio? Not synced up and blippy and crap. Great song, too bad it's been digitally raped.

[mralan1969uk]

@jacob7207 Your named and shamed, Read the description ....

[VermontConnection]

GREAT video!!! And Graham really loves that shirt haha

[coldplay107]

Gramham!!Graham!!!Graham!!!Gra­ham!!!!!

[rufiredup90]

What an epic song! And I just loooove how Damon sings it! The part where he sings "She's your guuuuuuun!~" is so beautiful! His voice is just so wonderful! Love it!

[fede018]

i love how he goes all Kurt Cobain at the end :)

[LucyLAL100]

GOOOOOOOOD that guitar solo at the end killed me, I am so in love with the way Graham plays guitar, what a fucking genius *-*

[Rorykdy]

christ. how shite are english crowds? they played titp in scotland after this and we fucking showed them how its fucking done! x

[mralan1969uk]

@Rorykdy I notice the main video on your page is one with a car on fire and exploding. Pretty much sums Scotland up ;-)

[Rorykdy]

@mralan1969uk im going to agree with that actually. but to be fair, some parts of scotland are amazing!

[Mantcer]

Blur tienes que venir al Perú.

[Tjenahejtjoho]

Everything Damon touches turns into gold

[reydiyohed]

@Tjenahejtjoho *graham

[battycreas3]

[carlo88moe]

[missgingerdalloway]

[josef2x]

[anghulinghiling]

BLUR. Amen.

[Sitch27]

1:28 Uuuuuuuh

[claysadventures]

Damon 4 LIFE

[gomezzz21]

@blurkooks its not that difficult with a bit of hard graft ;)

[serhij25]

DISLIKE FOR SOUND QUALITY

[mralan1969uk]

@serhij25 can you not read the description? You don't deserve to watch this video, idiot.

[tripnixon]

@serhij25 dude... resolution disclaimer: 480 progressive + audio layer = outta sync. watch this from your nintendo wii or something...

[MyRaulcastillo]

@serhij25 YOU DESERVE TO BURN IN HELL YOU UNAPPRECIATIVE BITCH!!!

[HappyAppart]

What the heck is Damon's guitar ? I think i've spent my whole life looking for something similar !

[LfunkeyA]

@HappyAppart

it's a modified fender jaguar. it might be a modified fender jazzmaster, they have the same body. so yeah, i would recommend looking for a fender jaguar.

[seththeseth]

@LfunkeyA I think you are referring to what Graham is using... Anw, it's a Fender Tele Deluxe, not a Jaguar or Jazzmaster... and Damon is using a Taylor acoustic! Cheers :)

[LfunkeyA]

@seththeseth

i don't know who's who, and i have absolutely no idea why i called the tele a jag/jazzmaster :). so yeah, bad advice on my part.

[seththeseth]

@HappyAppart It's a Taylor acoustic!

[TheMooseman1971]

biebers bum.....full of cum

[25stuwilson]

actually amazing!!!!

[Modzio666]

alex is cool as fuck

[jeg3009]

it just wouldn't be alex james without a cigerette in his mouth while playing the bass

[markyx8]

Awesome.

Is Damon really big or is his guitar really small?

[DrewSmyther]

@markyx8 "Are children small? Or just far away?" XD

[chronozcross]

omg, subliminal messages out there?

[gizmo23ph]

..gosh! graham still has that shirt ...^^

[rios9283]

they are all so dead

[dattoboy1]

Alex has the best armpit stains ever

[alberjo]

que buen audio.

[monoperative]

The sound quality is dreadful on this. Jesus christ. Need more subrscribers? Yeah, whatever.

[mralan1969uk]

@monoperative for some reason you need to watch this at 480p or above ... there's a problem with Youtube .....

[Curiositykilled1]

Wish I was there. The flags and pennants in the crowd look like Kurosawa's battle scenes in Kagemusha.

[wolves4life93]

Best headliners ever!!!

[BeautifulLatinName]

Love it so much♥

[markd325]

Blur, please, we need you back.

[rapewitharake]

they're all so sexy

[tsirobill]

ZOOM IN TO THE TOOTH

[rivoluzione22]

la cagá wn!

[olgawoo]

gosh, I'm in love with this track.

[pooonapiece]

this at T or glasto?

[lpaudrey182]

2009?

[DamonTsao]

i love graham!!!!!!!!!!

[pandalt]

My fav version. Coxon's best performance on this song I think

what's the lyrics about? my broken english :(

[avfcmickdaly]

@pandalt ...it's about heroin.him and his ex girlfriend from elastica justine frischman were seemingly occasional ??????..users and it's about his experience with the drug while with her

[flakito4ever]

She's your guuuun now what you've done....you beetlebum...their finest, finest moment!!!!!

[Pire002]

Gold teeth!

[chago0212]

this is real music

[vicory]

Wow - just an epic performance all-around. The back-up singers were a nice touch - really filled in the chorus. Graham ruled but gave Damon's his moments to shine, and the bass was just god-damned good. The drumming though is what gives this song it's very agreeable sort of beatlesque rhythmic lurch ala "I'm Only Sleeping."

[Onreal2135]

damn this is looks very impressive...one of the best of their concerts, i think.

And they`re still great, easy but so genious song

[06chrissy07]

blur and gorillaz?

[nazi713]

@blurkooks  Me too :/

[dltdppls]

nice song.. does anyone one know other simliar songs?

[vicory]

@dltdppls Coffee and TV is similar.

[dltdppls]

@vicory thx

[mocafester]

this is a dream, because they back!i live very far is the bad, come to america!!!!!!

this is a concert,, uff, wow...

[kmylo4]

@mocafester thanks again google traductor...

[matecrstn]

why is there an "I love sausage" flag in the crowd?:))

[playdohtheatre]

alex deserves an award for this performance. in this video, he is the face of rock n roll. love it.

[herbertzohl]

This song brings back so many good memories for me :-)

[MsSelma90]

oh, I LOVE this live version of beetlebum!!

[FrequencyDriveMusic]

classic song

[StanleyWiddos]

dude i love that guy who smokes while he plays, its so chill

[StJimmy4200]

@StanleyWiddos His name is Alex James, He makes cheese..... :P

[tsirobill]

TEETH

[AgeDrain]

is this wat this guy was doing after Gorillaz?

[thebobbseytwins]

@AgeDrain

Hahaha, this has got to be a joke!

[nirvanarugby]

lol

[cathalb4]

its what he did for 15 years or there abouts before Gorilaz with this band Blur.. They Got Bakc together last year for a reunion.. Pure Genius!...

[Avixz]

He got famous in blur way before gorillaz, which was just a project afterwards

[novocainerr]

This was writtin in the 90s dipshit

[AgeDrain]

@novocainerr dude i know that already. i just didnt know he was still rolling with these guys. aparently he is. i'm not a fan i'm just checking stuff out. so u can just go back to the 90's and stay there.

[BenjDeath]

Fantastic song ..great band ..blown away with the rifts at the end

[ninjainscrubs]

It's the 'she turns me on' bit that always gets me. The way he sings that is amazing.

[thebobbseytwins]

@ninjainscrubs

The way he sings the entire song always gets me.

[LowDefCollegeMusic]

That Fender is georgeous! I so want that! :D

[manutdfan079]

love it too. Fender '72 Telecaster deluxe. Want that to be my next guitar.

[carlos77s]

grupasooooooooo ,grande Blurrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[CryoHazardousMateria]

alex james is badass.

[ninacaldarella]

he's grown a pimple on his chin :x

they still rock though, and it isn't even bothering that they play the same songs as when they were younger. The sound is good. way to go Blur!

[24littlev]

my fav song 4eveer!!!!

love u damon!! :D

[iamthemasterplan]

one of the best songs i'd ever heard, blur is absolutly a unique band, and this song in particular is the best (in my opinion) she turns me on and all my violence is gone (8)

[RememberJJ72]

Superb.

[christopherengl]

Absolutely amazing!!! 5 *

[rowinhud]

i just hope they come on tour to america and mexico pleaseee..... somebody knows about a tour??

[msblurgirl]

sorry, theyre not doing anymore concerts cuz this was a one off comeback gig I wish theyd do more tours too!

[lasfinisimas]

They are not together right now, so I guess a tour is unlikely

[ninjainscrubs]

They're all kind of old. Damon's singing isn't as good as it was back then. Still brilliant.

[Capuano231]

What are you talking about? Ever since Gorillaz Damon has improved on his vocals.

[ninjainscrubs]

He can't sing as high anymore. It's natural. He has got older after all. Look at videos of blur 10 years ago and watch back the recent performances. There's a notable difference.

[AditOakes]

is that James Rowntree on the drums??? God he's OLD! LOL

[damona75]

dave not james ,alex james

[likethesummerfalls]

they haven't changed, still as amazing as they always were!

[zerochance01]

where was this???

[danielmiles1708]

Glastonbury!!  What a night.

[debede1989]

temaso! muy bueno lo de las banderas de todos los paises, una gran fiesta como siempre

[jonnyritz]

SHOWTIME 1994, cheryl t shirt! was at the front for this!

[12345l6789]

graham is the definition of genius, and alex is the definition of english, cool, and suarve

[MrJaviermode]

blur mi respeto coolllllllllllllllllllllllEcua­dorrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[samfrombelgium]

fucking awesome song ! love the chillness of the bassist & coolness of graham :)

[weerpool14]

Graahaaaaaaaaammmm is fucking perfection!! It's just not the same Blur without him!!!

[t4ettty]

The audience is a climax.

fuck'in cool! awesome!

[msblurgirl]

wow, I have this recorded but the quality is poor compared to this. It was so amazing, especially the gutar at the end. It must have been brilliant to be there! I think they all look great playing together again.:)

[MerseysideBlue1878]

Has Damon had any work done on his hair? Looks like hes got more here then in the 1999 Wembley gig.

[PantheonLincoln]

I seem to recall he shaved his head just before that 1999 tour. I was at the first date of that tour in Newport, it was really short then. That's all it is.

[Zivkan]

wtf, has damon got a gold tooth?

[gotbikenow123]

took your time :P

[CaCatoe]

Yeah, he woke up one day and he lost a tooth, but couldn't remember how, atleast thats what I read somewere.

And with gigs from The Good, the Bad & the Queen you see he has no tooth there at all (search Youtube).

[sharerx]

He said "I dedicate this song to all the hangovers."

[ifc2006]

Cherry !!!! I love Graham :)

[LPwonder2008]

where did u get this footage??? and yeah, graham wears that shirt too much lol

[popmachine12]

lol, it is a shirt . your not gonna wear it once.

[LPwonder2008]

yeah, but its not like you wear the same exact shirt for every live performance... i mean, im sure he has some clothes.

[jl093]

lol graham is using the same t shirt that he used in the blur showtime concert, 1994.

[Rodry88]

@jl093 he wears the same clothes cause he feels the same

[gorillazman]

very nice the liverpool fc flag, but damon is chelsea fan xD

and the one with the mexico flag I would like to be me but i missed the show, I live in guadalajara, mexico ;'( I hope they come here!!!

[Britstoner]

Fucking amazing !!!

[DoverOverClover]

Man, Damon used to look so good and clean

now he has a gold tooth!!

[benjamindu73]

why don't we the the drummer? as usual all the drummers are forgotten!! :@

[mocafester]

oh no because no estuve ayi!

[ShaggyAlonso13]

Graham's guitar playing during that epic outro is utterly fucking heroic. So good, so awe-inspiring that it makes me want to cry.

[Waitforme88]

Alex smokin as usual))

[Emmett006]

5* :-)

[Dougolai]

i can't believe its over, i mean the biggest comeback of the year and it was five gigs long, after watching this and seeing them at T in the park its hard to believe its finished, guess i'm glad that i caught them when i had the chance

[GiantPandas]

I'm glad Alex James is back on using his P-bass again. Love that guitar!

[jaykayadrock]

yeah,also graham is using old clothes,damon´s gold tooth is cool,alex should do something about his armpits,and i hope they come to mexico :)

[calvinhealy]

hahaha, alex's armpits are hilariously cool/sick.. hahaha. but he's awesome!

[gotbikenow123]

alex james is the definition of awesome

[cactaceous]

Fuck!! This is what they sound like after they reunited? Jesus, Damon hurry up with that Gorillaz album and get back with the band in a studio, quick. They still have it. I know it's a really long shot but Blur should record and tour new material. 2011?

[beatlesmusica]

Woww...perfect...!

[JaimeChile]

perfection

[lalaloppy]

But the gold tooth needs to go. He can afford to get it fixed proper.

[LuisDivision]

i know!

[aafrias]

True, but it does look alot better than when he just had a gap.

[jarita313LP]

maybe he likes his gold tooth

[lalaloppy]

WOW

[LuisDivision]

oh my...!
