maybe they're not being ignored, maybe the dancers just dont give a shit whether anyone watches them. they just do this stuff all the time and frankly, the people at the studio are kinda sick of it

@anamewashere I've watched this video numerous times - but only on this time did I think about the guy at the begining talking to the camera 'we'll be back after a short commercial break' Which made me think - who the hell is watching these dancers? I thought maybe it was for the studio audience? I like your idea a bit better though.
First Blur song I heard as a kid and I thought, "What is this?". Not until years later when I heard their older songs. Awesome stuff. A fan since then.
The British scene is the best on Earth. Most music legends come from there: The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Queens, Led Zepplins, The Police, Dire Straits, The Sex Pistols, The Clash, Pulp, Radiohead, Clapton, Tricky, Portishead, Massive Attack and sooooo much more poeple that this list could be very long...!
eso es qxactamente lo que le da tanta originalidad, muxos lo comparan con oasis pero oasis repetian too una y otra vez, lo uniko q tenian en comun es q convivieron en la misma decada
If thats grunge to you then you need to totally redo you full look on music for a start if your english you cant be grunge FACT! you might wanna look up the history of grunge like where it started etc >.> honest half the kids these days need to stop listening to that mcr shite because now we have twats like this calling blur grunge
This is the one Blur song that I hated/cringed at the most from the moment it was first released - it didn't make any sense to me at the time, but amazingly enough, I grew to like it alot just recently.
I've seen some people mention that this sounds like Gorillaz (yes same singer I know) but I think the blur track that most resembles Gorillaz is Don't Be. Listen to it if you're interested
i love this song but the electric sounds at the end when im in my headphones fry my brain
