  • this is damon's song for his ex-girl

  • If a guitar could cry....

  • I thought this was absolute shit when I first heard it, but my god it has REALLY grown on me over the years. Beautiful song!

  • i like it when they slept

  • whats the whole point of the video???

  • @Acatastropheinbloom

    The song is a personal one about being at your most vulnerable. I think the video supports this by filming them at their most vulnerable - asleep.

  • it's my perfect velntin'es song guys i love this awesome song also i need to tell someone that this is our madly truth

  • watching them sleep makes them seem so human.

  • Comment removed

  • you do realize that the person filmin them was me....i was naked at that time and when Damon woke up he was not happy....

  • I tried to make a different, interesting comment several times.

    I couldn't.

    Blur, you have left me speachless.

  • Damn those brittish!

  • @SemiToneBlew damn those people who accidentally spell british with two "t "s

  • @MrLiamontoast haha my bad! x) comp's fault.

  • I, as an Oasis fan, respect Damon Albarn, Graham Coxon, Alex James and Dave Rowntree alot. I have personally met both James and Rowntree and they are two very nice and modest blokes.

  • @ROCKSOLID19 oasis fans, for god's sake, leave them aside for once!

  • @IsuckYoungBlood The rift has ended years ago. I as a very passionate Oasis fan have no malice acted against Blur. It was an epic Britpop battle but like all battles, it must end.

  • this song has helped me alot

  • Blur were great for always trying new things.

  • damon has the sweetest speaking voice ive ever heard.

  • I would be scared to have people recording me while I was sleeping. I do crazy things in my sleep. One time my mom found me in my closet...that would be embarrassing

  • imagine waking to see that lovely, lovely man beside you each morning. His girlfriend is a lucky lucky woman

  • @alicesweetheart best compliment i've ever heard from a girl to a boy.

  • This is like a gift from god!!! Are you serious?! No really, are you serious!?!!! Watching Damon sleep so very sexily?!?!!! This is like every fantasy I could ever have =) I should not be privileged with this kind of access! I feel like such a creep whilst delighting in every second.

    Such a sad and wonderful song. Well done, boys.

  • Comment removed

  • urgh! that's so creepy, people recording me whilst I sleep would freak me right out!!!

  • Jesus Damon, I love you so much.

    You are just too cute and sexy and wonderful for us.

    I'm crying

  • @LoztInMars Awwww! What about poor Dave? lol, jokes :-P 

  • anyone who prefers oasis learns the error of their ways at 4:05

  • Comment removed

  • Aw this song is so sad. Good!... but sad. I wish they had worked out

  • @pinkizkeewl9 its kinda called coughing into a pillow

  • yeah so justine is an idiot

  • @Chacha5678 Elastica rock! But yeah, I can understand how her addiction to Harry would have put a strain on her and Damon's relationship.

  • @Stranglepuff I think was not only this. 

  • The other night I dreamt with this song, and is the first time I see the video, I think is strange I dreamt with this song when the video is about sleep.

  • @parodita i did too haha

  • Oh, man if I were a camera operator, I'd just be having a fit of giggles trying to stay quiet while filming some guys sleeping.

  • This video is adorable, if not creepy. :) < 3

  • i feel like a pervert, watching them sleep...

  • Comment removed

  • an absolutely immense idea. how many other people came up with this? wow i had to re write this cos i made a few mistakes, the song just took me away... cant think quite straight.

    x

  • I love Damon, i feel so bad for him at the end, he is just doing anything to avoid answering the question truthfully :(

    They are cut sleepers, but you do in an odd way feel creepy about watching this.... :/

  • @jade66876 Well, I think he kinda answers it truthfully... he's just not very objective about it. :P

    Instead of saying "it's about how sad I was after the breakup with Justine", he says it's a "warning and a reminder" to never let himself be that way again.

  • I love you Damon! ♥

  • the video is intriguing and very stokerish kinda feels wrong to watch it yet you find yourself watching over and over again ,it also helps that the song is so beautiful.

  • I wanna kill myself trying to stay in your life. I got no distance left to run.

  • @Katabint it's 'i WON'T kill myself trying to stay in your life'.

  • FUCK PREROLLS

  • yawn!!......depressing think i wanna do me self in too!! :( ...come on blur want more songs like the universal .....best song ever........:D

  • I love Out of Time & Tracy Jacks, and of course No Distance Left To Run

  • just seen a documentary about blur Damon comes across as abit of a langer the rest seem pretty cool and down to earth.why am i bothering commenting 

  • @sarahlarry17 i dunno, stfu. jk ;)

  • at least it's made clear what the song is about :P

  • WOW. Damon sleeping :8) soooo sexy and cute (: He's so fit ;D

  • This has to be one of the best vido clips ever made.

  • This song makes me wanna cry

  • 0:48- I like how Damon mentions that. I always wake up in the morning with all my hair flipped the other way. Funny:)

  • aww

  • OMG! I love you Grahaaaaam!

  • i adore this song but beetlebum is just the best thing that ive ever heard EVER

  • But I have been wrong before.

  • Damamirlo/Mumpuy. I think the line is:

    "Someone who makes you feel that this life is benign"

  • good song best one, but no distance left to run, tender, the universal, all very good :D

  • gotta be the universal I think better than Wonderwall in my opinion, something so much more honest and caustiously optimistic about it.........or something

  • I was having a lot of trouble letting go of someone I loved, and this song was one of the things that helped me get through it.

    Thanks, guys.

  • The best Blur songs are Blue Jeans and Sweet Song. Of the singles, it's probably Coffee and TV.

  • song 2 my opinion

  • best blur song is THE UNIVERSAL, dont u think?

  • damon on heroin?I really don't believe it..its..I don't know but its so strange .....

  • I've not been able to get this song out of my head for the past few days. Love it but not heard it for ages. I wonder what it would have been like if they played this at Hyde Park. They should have, woulda had a great singalong.

  • @louisej124 Because Damon finds it a really hard song to sing. That's not hard talent- wise, it just really emotionally affects him.

  • @joeisaflyingfish yeah, u could tell when towards the end is was about to say suicide, which is basically what the songs about haha, I think, i dunno. When he was saying "It's a song about s-".

    The lyrics were pretty emotionally wrecked.

  • 1992 in my opinion

  • They nailed it with these lyrics!

  • innit

  • what is the best blur song?? i think its parklife...

  • even though I've been sick to death of it for over 10 years....

    Song 2

    Other than that - my fav would be He Thought of Cars

  • Parklife is up there but I think this song is one of my favourites. This lyrics are so true. I also love tender, it's a classic.

  • I would have to say coffee and tv is the best blur song and also the best video

  • THE UNIVERSAL of course

  • damon really loved justine but she didn't love him like that. i've been there.

  • we all have, salv.

  • how brilliant

  • What is that song at the very beginning?! I've been looking for the name of it for, like, years!

  • FEET!!! :D

  • "No, I'm not nervous." XD

    Have you ever BEEN nervous, Alex?

  • = ]

  • i think you may have emphasised the wrong word but I'm with you 200%, Alex is an absolute confident legend ha ha!

  • bugger me it is quarter to 1

  • Alex James I LOVE U!!

  • Me too !!!

  • Comment removed

  • that's so FUNNY graham biting his nails...

  • 3:35 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

  • this might be excellent

  • 4:55 "song's about just ... ... ... sss ... ..."

  • amazing song!!

    the words remind me of losing my 1st love!!

  • This is one of my favorite videos of all time. It makes me wonder about how I act when I'm asleep.

    In the "making of" video Graham says: "The simplest things are heaviest. Sleep is heavy stuff." That quote has always stuck with me.

  • Wow, that's just put alot of my issues into perspective... just Wow.

  • Such a poignant song...I can hardly bear to listen to those sad lyrics. What a beautiful video....sweetdreams Damon x

  • Damon, sleep with me! ♥o♥

    (o.o ok that's too much XDXDXD)

    Damon, sweet dreams x3

    (mjm better ..... XDXDXD)

  • so beautiful :'

  • This song always reminds me of my first serious girlfriend a couple of years ago. I still love her so much and think about her every day. She's moved on..

  • Maybe you should too, and stop being a little bitch!

  • wow,i didn't know damon had a rough voice!

  • love this song!!

  • awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • beellissima canzone ,toccante x non parlare del video ,non avevano mai fatto una cosa del genere in nessun video ...geniali blur!

  • brilliant concept

    love blur so much..there is something very unique about them.

    damon is fantastic and i just love alex!

  • i love this song....

  • damon is a really sexy sleeper... if in fact he is truly sleeping...

  • @ohgimemo Frankly, practically anything he does is sexy.

  • @ohgimemo they are

  • I love!!!

  • I really love this video, It's so cute :)

    Every Blur fan's dream come true XD

  • aaaand

    which involves

    as i'm goin ashleep.

    LOL

  • so chilled, so meaningful, 5 *s to Blur for this

  • lol, damon in the morning... chilled video.

  • like this..sorta bluesy

  • I love this song but it makes me so sad :(

  • This is a superb video. I love the soft quiet way they are all talking in the first minute or so. Theres something something about their voices, and the way they say the word 'sleep' - especially Dave at 58 seconds. Really cool idea for a video - and a great song.

  • at 4.59 i thought damon had slipped in a coma lol

  • haha its so funny how Damon looks in the morning XDD

  • awesome

  • who would be stupid enough to end a relationship with one of these guys? especially damon? i'm not a homo sexual but there's something about damon that just does it for me ;)

  • What did he mean by "warning, gentle reminder"?

  • the songs about the relationship ending, so i'm guessing a warning that you can get hurtm and a gentle reminder that your relationship can end at any point

    i think

  • Absolutely amazing. What a unique way to shoot a video. Sleeping/dreaming has always fascinated me and so this is very intriguing to me!

  • Fascinating. Love it

  • WAKE UP DAMON!

  • Grahams shy even when he's asleep!

  • he's an adorable man

  • estes gajos são de mais! sem uvida que passaram as minhas expectativas...a voz do Damon?! oh meu deus é muita boa..

  • This video scares/amazes me every time

    LOVE BLUR :D x

  • Damon...Damon...you have to explain the song for the viewers...Damon?

  • Bonus info: at 4.33, a voice says "Er i klar?" - which means "Are you [plural] ready?" in Danish

  • when they wake him at the end and are like "i want you to tell me what the song is about"

    thats exactly how i am in the morning when i wake up.

    beautiful song though.

  • i would fall asleep before id answer completly :D

  • Haha same here probably.

  • Damon is sooo hottt!

  • This hit me hard...amazing lyrics. so many people have felt like this.

  • I agree

  • lyrics kick ass.

  • Damon caused me to yawn at the end of the video...lol Totally class tune by a legendary band!

  • stoneroselover is absolutely right.

    It's just an amazing song so pure and so emotional. It gives me goose bumps every time I hear it.

  • wow!!

    wat a video!

  • This is the song i would sing to my ex if i could. Please people if you love someone and are having hard-times think long and hard before you leave them. Sometimes there is no way back as this poor broken-hearted man has discovered. Woe is me in my folly - i will love you always.

  • dont no about everyone down south. but everone in lancashire loves oasis and blur

  • I love oasis and blur, and i`m not for lancashire, im from mexico

  • Same here from Spain. Choosing between two great bands is ridiculous, it's like choosing between your right or left lung. You want both!

  • your right, that one works better, the left inflates left as it closer to your heart.

  • I couldn't help but laugh at the end. Falling back asleep as he's starting to explain :)

  • This song is extremely moving. Just reading the lyrics alone, without music, will tear your apart.

    "I hope you're with someone who makes you feel that this life is a life"

    Wow, just, amazingly awesome.

  • " I hope you're with someone who makes you feel safe in your sleep-ing tonight" is the actual line mate, but agree with your comments other than that.

    Amazing, moving song.

  • They sing both lines. The first says "someone who makes you feel safe in your sleeping", and the second says "someone who makes you feel that this life is tonight/the night" (not sure about the last word).

    What a beautiful song... Saddest with Yesterday.

  • its "this life is the life" i think

  • simply the best!

  • this song really makes me cry...one of their best. 13 is so perfect. and this work-art-video- is really brilliant and poetic. blur is absolutely a great and a very special music band. thanks for sharing this.

  • makes me wish i had someone to wake up with that has messed up hair and is completely incoherent.

  • sames
