Read Full BioBlur is an English rock band formed in London in 1988. The band consists of singer Damon Albarn, guitarist Graham Coxon, bassist Alex James and drummer Dave Rowntree. Their debut album, Leisure (1991), incorporated the sounds of Madchester and shoegazing. Following a stylistic change influenced by English guitar pop groups such as the Kinks, Depeche Mode and Radiohead, Blur released Modern Life Is Rubbish (1993), Parklife (1994) and The Great Escape (1995). As a result, the band helped to popularise the Britpop genre and achieved mass popularity in the UK, aided by a chart battle with rival band Oasis in 1995 dubbed "The Battle of Britpop".
Blur's self-titled fifth album (1997) saw another stylistic shift, influenced by the lo-fi styles of American indie rock groups, and became their third UK chart-topping album. Its single "Song 2" brought the band mainstream success in the US for the first time. Their next album, 13 (1999) saw the band experimenting with electronic and gospel music, and featured more personal lyrics from Albarn. Their seventh album, Think Tank (2003), continued their experimentation with electronic sounds and was also shaped by Albarn's growing interest in hip hop and world music, featuring more minimal guitar work. Coxon left the band during early recording sessions for Think Tank, and Blur disbanded for several years after the end of the album's associated tour, with the members engaged in other projects.
In 2009, Blur reunited with Coxon back in the band and embarked on a European reunion tour. In the following years, they released several singles and compilations and toured internationally. In 2012, they received a Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. Their eighth album, The Magic Whip (2015), was the sixth consecutive Blur studio album to top the British chart. The group have largely been on hiatus since the Magic Whip tour, but have announced plans to reunite in 2023 for various live dates.

Blur Lyrics
Woo-hoo
Woo-hoo
Woo-hoo
Woo-hoo
I got my head checked
By a jumbo jet
It wasn't easy
But nothing is
No
(Woo-hoo) when I feel heavy metal
(Woo-hoo) and I'm pins and I'm needles
(Woo-hoo) well, I lie and I'm easy
All of the time but I'm never sure why I need you
Pleased to meet you
I got my head done
When I was young
It's not my problem
It's not my problem
(Woo-hoo) when I feel heavy metal
(Woo-hoo) and I'm pins and I'm needles
(Woo-hoo) well, I lie and I'm easy
All of the time but I'm never sure why I need you
Pleased to meet you
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah

Александр Погодин
Сид Вишес умер у тебя на глазах
Джон Леннон умер у тебя на глазах
Джим Моррисон умер у тебя на глазах
А ты остался таким же как был...
Всего два выхода для честных ребят
Схватить автомат и убивать всех подряд
Или покончить с собой,собой,собой,собой
Если всерьёз воспринимать этот мир...
Цель оправдывает средства — давай
Убивай,насилуй,клевещи,предавай
Ради светлого,светлого,светлого,светлого
Светлого здания идей Чучхе...
Всё то,что не доделал Мамай
Октябрь доделал,довёл до конца
Октябрь довёл до последней черты
И всем нам нечего делать здесь...
Мой друг повесился у вас на глазах
Он сделал харакири у вас на крыльце
Он истёк надеждой и всем, чем мог
А все вы остались такими же

this opening still gives me massive goosebumps

Это был трек под который мы с друзьями становились в круг и просто прыгали… Тот кто это придумал, ушел рано… но остались в памяти эти прыжки…. И целая история
