The opening two lines of this song are such a great play on words
"Do you feel like a chain store
Practicaly floored" (Practically flawed)
Ah yes . . . thanks for highlighting that for me. Indeed clever.
Funny coincidence, I'm wearing the milk carton tshirt from this songs video and then I see this! Love u guys and Blur.
Oh my, that is a funny coincidence. Like, really. - Greg
I always thought this was the band at their most interesting. Although I grew up in the Britpop era, I was never much into their chart-bothering pop singles, but when they got bored and went into more alternative and grungy territory... much better. The self-titled album and '13' are really good.
To be fair, this is very much a Britpop sounding song - pure pop record, and a fantastic one at that.
My favourite Blur track is Out Of Time. Their ‘Britpop era output leaves me cold. Alex James…what a cheese making tool he is
They didn't get bored, the first album was an exploitative studio produced album and at the time the studio forced them to tour the US which they hated. They were so disillusioned by the whole experience that they decided to refuse anymore input from the record label and focus their efforts into making records that were unmistakingly and specifically British for the UK audience. From that point on you can argue Blur became the most influential band of the era, more so than the at the time more popular Oasis who lets face it looking back were a one trick pony making cookie cutter nostalgia pop music with little to no variety. I would argue Pulp did more to move pop music forward than Oasis who basically just ripped off bands like the Charlatans.
Great song, great reaction! I love this album. For me, it's their best. Check out Tender for a very different type of song. But the album worths a full listen. As you liked this song, I suggest, besides Gorillaz, that you take a look at Coxon's solo work too. Especially Happiness in magazines and Love Travels at Illegal Speeds, two excellent albums. Found out this channel recently and I'm loving it. Great content, cool reflections and reactions. Thanks for the good work.
Thanks for your kind words, Luciano!
Great song and great band! Cheers
Beetlebum just amazing stuff Tender too
That’s a real nice solo in that song. I think they were the best out of the popular 90’s Britpop bands. Clearly more interesting than Oasis.
Definitely more creative than Oasis, you can see that how Graeme Coxson has continued to work other bands and Damon went on to create Gorillaz.
@@Alpha_7227 I agree but Oasis B sides are unbelievable if you get into them.
When you look back how many Oasis songs stand up today? Song 2 became the most used piece of music in sport, The Universal is used in adverts around the World to give a couple of examples of Blur's long term appeal.
I am fan of their Song Girls and Boys
This, Tender and Parklife are all on my favourites play list
One of my favourite bands! ❤
Song 2: a two-minute masterpiece
They were a popular band in the U.K., not just England.
I've messed up on that so many times . . . sincerest apologies. Will correct that going forward. - Greg
Another Blur song I'd do after this is Beetlebum
And Oily Water.
Yes, awesome choice, I love the bridge where it changes to this 60's style song.
Fun Fact: The Album "13" was produced by William Orbit, who normally do more electronic dance stuff and is best known for his work with Madonna.
Great reaction👍
I listen to this song in 1999-2000..its a Good song
Their most Kinks inspired albums are their second, Modern Life is Rubbish and third, Parklife. There are some Ray Davies style suburban vignettes and songs about London.
Such a great band, for mine they were or are great. So creative and inventive. Graeme Coxson, Damon Albarn, Alex James brilliant. Listen to the bass line in this song just holding things together. Check out Chemical world and Beetlebum to. Also interested to see how you guys would react to Parklife.
you forgot dave :(
You should absolutely listen to 13 if you like that distorted guitar
I think at the time, Blur knew they were done with Brit-Pop. They were actually looking at American lo-fi groups at the time, for inspiration. This is great album. I saw them at the Roseland Ballroom back in the day. They even did my favorite Blur song, from Parklife "This is a Low". I know they did "Tender" which should have been a bigger hit. Thanks for a good pick!
Thanks, Phil!
Personally “No Distance Left To Run” is the Blur song that I find most enduring.
Blur definitely got better after 1997, I would say. I wasn't much of a fan of the stuff that went up against Oasis (although I'll accept Parklife was a solid album) but from Beetlebum onwards, they turned into a very good band.
I think you lads may like some Supergrass. Moving or Richard III would be good places to start. 👍
This is when Coxon looked to America for his influences, Pavement being the obvious band.
I love their Think Tank album, but it feels more like a side project than a blur album. Experimental north African feel to it
There's No Other Way was Kurt Cobain's favourite britrock tune due to its lyrics about inevitability.
You guys should really do Gorillaz too, Damon Albarn (blur singer and lead songwriter) is behind the music of that band too
We reacted to Gorrilaz' "Valley of the Pagans" 4 months ago: th-cam.com/video/O-rx-9Q90vo/w-d-xo.html
@@intothemusic908 oh yeah thanks. Definitely do the hits then…. “Feel Good Inc”, “Clint Eastwood” “Dare” “Dirty Harry” 👍
Should react to the video too not just the music
About quitting alcohol.
Yep
@@intothemusic908 A song close to my own heart.
This has a very, Super Furry Animals vibe to it, love the Caravan esque sounding end.
good track also try she so high, song 2, or theres no other way.
Preferred these over Oasis in the early days.
That solo...sounds to me like an angry, angry hornet...Mr. Graham Coxon, ´nuff said.
You guys should react to some The Strokes
can you react to the strokes "Ode to the mets" ?
Every time you react to a UK band I already feel annoyed that you’re not going to deep dive into everyone of my favourite songs and all of their side projects etc (Damon albarn has plenty - gorillaz etc). This is not a negative comment just that I want more!!!
Libertines next please! And more Coral :)
Libertines next please! And more Coral :)
Understood and appreciate the sentiment. Coming from a good place. :)
@@intothemusic908 apparently the solo in this track was recorded as a filler until Coxon could come up with a proper solo but this just sounded so much better so they kept it.
