I’ve always liked Blur. Odds are usually always against it but there’s a slim chance this might be good I reckon.
For the FAO of Smallman's attention
mono-stereo I’ve always liked Blur.
Much more than Oasis, who are just shameless plagiarists.
Plus I saw them both at the peak of their powers (Maine Road for Oasis), so Oasis fans can stick that in their pipe and smoke it.

Blur are for gimps. Same as Oasis are for scruffy faced gimps. The whole staged Brit pop row was embarrassing shit.
(Sorry if I’ve offended any gimps)
mono-stereo Quality band. Their reunion gig at Hyde Park 2009 was fantastic (remember the whole crowd singing Tender and po going absolutely bananas to There’s no other way and Girls and Boys. I enjoyed much of their last album “Magic Whip” too
Blur, Oasis, Edwand: awful shite for awful people.
Yeah, but Amps, aren’t you into The Offspring and Epitaph records?
Have I seen Blur at Glastonbury?
I have!
OLB - Ol’ Ledging it to Blur!
Blur is how Ed mastered the cockney.

Mad_Cyril I thought it was Only Likes Boys?
Or is it “Oi Loike Balls”
A while ago we established it meant
Oooh! Look! Boys.
Old Ledge Bants is the one lads!
OLB!
Blur died when they sold that tune to British Gas.
Britpop was indeed manufactured and a bit shit, but Modern Life is Rubbish just before that cack was excellent.
Along_the_Wire They proved their musical chops when they came back from Britpop caricature after Country House with their two best albums Blur and 19. Beetlebum, Coffee and TV, No distance to run, Tender and Death of a party are all great tracks.
Along_the_Wire Modern life is a great album. Chemical World and Oily Water!
alistair post Britpop, they became dull - IMHO obvs
I loved Britpop! Especially UB40 and Def Leppard.
