Here I love the bow
See me walk on down to
Adorn myself, it's a new song glory
Battle, battle, battle, battle, battle
Battle someone, oh
Battle, battle, battle, battle, battle
Battle someone, oh
Can turn your sights
Kill until sub-zero
See me oh it turns you on
All my gawe
It's the end of your
Take your last one now
Battle, battle, battle, battle, battle
Battle someone, oh
Battle, battle, battle, battle, battle
Battle someone, oh
Battle, battle, battle, battle, battle
Battle someone, oh
Battle, battle, battle, battle, battle
Battle someone, oh
Battle, battle, battle, battle, battle

Blur is an alternative rock band which formed in Colchester, England in 1989. The band consists of Damon Albarn (vocals, guitar, keyboards), Graham Coxon (guitar, vocals), Alex James (bass) and Dave Rowntree (drums). Blur's debut album Leisure (1991) incorporated the sounds of Madchester and Shoegazing and spawned their first UK Top 10 single, There's No Other Way. Following a stylistic change in 1992 (influenced by English guitar groups such as The Kinks Read Full BioBlur is an alternative rock band which formed in Colchester, England in 1989. The band consists of Damon Albarn (vocals, guitar, keyboards), Graham Coxon (guitar, vocals), Alex James (bass) and Dave Rowntree (drums). Blur's debut album Leisure (1991) incorporated the sounds of Madchester and Shoegazing and spawned their first UK Top 10 single, There's No Other Way. Following a stylistic change in 1992 (influenced by English guitar groups such as The Kinks, The Beatles, The Animals and XTC) Blur released "Popscene" as a stand alone single, this was a commercial flop, but was widely considered to be a crucial turning point for the band's style. Following this, Blur released 3 studio albums in a similar style: 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 famous chart battle with rival band Oasis dubbed "The Battle of Britpop".
By the late 1990s, with the release of Blur (1997), the band underwent another reinvention, influenced by the lo-fi style of American indie rock bands such as Pavement; in the process, Blur finally gained mainstream success in the US with the single, "Song 2". The last album featuring the band's original lineup, 13 (1999) found Blur experimenting with electronic music and gospel music, as Albarn wrote more personal lyrics. In May 2002, Coxon left Blur during the recording of their seventh album Think Tank (2003). Containing electronic sounds and simpler guitar playing, the album was marked by Albarn's growing interest in hip-hop and African music.
In December 2008, Blur announced that they would be reforming for the first time since their hiatus in 2003, complete with Graham Coxon, for a UK Tour in 2009. Blur headlined the Oxegen Festival in Ireland, Glastonbury and the T in the Park Festival in the UK, as well as Dates in London, Manchester, Newcastle, Southend and Wolverhampton. The band continues to be sporadically active, releasing the single "Fool's Day" and the documentary "No Distance Left to Run" in 2010, and performing several concerts in 2012. Two new songs, "Under the Westway" and "The Puritan", were released in 2012 leading up to a post-Olympics concert which also features New Order, The Specials and Bombay Bicycle Club. In 2015, Blur released The Magic Whip.
they're amazing.

This album is a masterpiece. Damon’s character studies of the Britpop era were fun and clever and all, but his lyricism throughout this record is truly amazing. As are his and Graham’s sound direction. This is basically the 97 album but with lyricism and sound that goes the full mile and then some. I have no doubt this must have been personal hell for them, Graham battling the bottle and Damon losing his love and trying to get off heroin, but it didn’t half sound amazing. This entire album is the sound of someone battling their demons and is truly stunning.

What a through yet accurate explanation! As painful as many life events are, and as horrendous as addictions may be; it's incredible what creative masterpieces can be produced, both during and as a result of that pain.

This is depicting the pain of his break up

This is probably an unpopular opinion, but this song is one of the if not best pieces of music any of the four have produced. I can't describe why. It's just amazing.
GLX
This song really makes you feel the pain of a break up
Satellite Sounds
It's always been one of my favourites and not just Blur even, in general. I agree with you, just amazing. This album was one of my biggest influences as a musician.

If I had to pick 5 tracks by them this would be one. I just love the drums.

I discovered this song in the most unorthodox way. It was 2002, I was 10 years old, and one morning in a school assembly our headmaster put an image up on one of those old overhead projectors. The image was of a painting by Salvador Dali 'The persistence of memory' (the melting clocks painting). He challenged us all to find a piece of music at home that we believe suits the image, and to bring in our chosen piece on CD. The winning CD would be played in assembly at the end of the week with the image displayed. I don't even know why I was so determined to find the perfect match, but sure enough I went home with a plan on sitting there for hours if I had to listening through my dad's CD's. Blur 13 just happened to be sat at the top of the pile, took me less than 5 minutes to come across this song and I immediately knew the search was already over, very first moment I heard that almost metronome sounding opening. My selection ultimately beat out fierce competition from S Club 7 and the Vengaboys and I never felt so chuffed having it played on the Friday morning, until I had to get up and explain to the entire school why I chose it. I have no idea what I said
