Please tell me you KNOW Think Tank? Else you shouldn't be making that kinda statement x

this one is my favourite, sounds like the old bsides that are so very dear to me.

Heartbreaking. This could be a second side track for the Great Escape. Absolutely gorgeous. Graham is the kind of guitarist that plays only riffs that make the WHOLE band sound marvelous. That's a musician.

By far the most interesting song on the album so far. Really satisfying glissandi guitar parts all over the song. This is what I’ve been waiting 9 years for. Grade: A+

I have to say I haven't listened to it enough to compare with Think Tank, but that's the high ba😊r it is competing with in my ears 😶. It's Graeme's geetar... especially at the end, all that overdrive/chorus really floats me boat! #BloodySouthernerz

Немного грустный,но такой великолепный!!!!!

I'm in love with the feeling that these songs are giving me. I look forward to playing The Ballad of Darren on repeat for awhile and really delving into it. What an exceptional addition to the Blur catalogue.

Goodbye Albert Lyrics Goodbye to you and me Goodbye to the shallows like refugees singing We crossed the world We disappeared And no one looks to see if we are coming back soon I was not ready yet Let it go Goodbye to you and me You sat me with me at dawn Then you left for sea singing I tried to find you there Blue parasol But I could not find it In this world, denied it But I think you'd rather Let it go I stayed away I gave you time Why don't you talk to me anymore? Don't punish me forever Goodbye, depression parade Like a weather front at dawn It could fade I was crushed by sleep and unravelled dreams Washed away for hours I'd be there, not just send flowers But I think you'd rather I stayed away Got pulled inside Why don't you talk to me anymore? Don't punish me

quite possibly the best song they've made in the last two albums. superior this one.

This is music....thank you Blur !

Blur is back Baby 😭😭😭😭 Get out the album!!!

I love the vibe ❤ helps me feel calm 🥰

Yeah I guess it’s fair to say most of their fans would own their albums on physcial media especially CDs which last a long time and can be easily converted to digital so there wouldn’t be much reason to subscribe. Versus older bands if you only had vinyl or tapes or something you would have to either repurchase everything or just listen on KZread.

solo escuche 2 segundos de la cancion y ya me parece un nuevo clasico de Blur que gran cancion

he sounds like Bowie in the chorus

Darren is seeming like it has elements of another break up album. Sad and melancholy (I am digging it, though )

I wasn’t sure how to put this up, after all it is mostly sentimental drivel, but the fact is Blur has always been there in the background, projecting a reassuring sense of normality and a group I can totally relate to and identify with, they make you sense yep, we're here, the London you grew up is always here, from way back at school with Bang and There’s No Other Way when Damon appeared on TOTP stoned off his head, not bothering to sing and waving a cut out chicken, through Parklife and the ultimate expat song This is a Low where he has the audacity to quote the Shipping Forecast, to Song 2 and experimental post Brit pop rock to that weird weird 13 at the turn of the century, then as we reached our 40s and thought they’d finally faded into the past, they were forced to kick their heels for four days in the Ultimate personification of Nostalgia and Longing for Britain of Days gone, Hong Kong in 2015 and hey presto they came out with a new album, which for me was basically more Gorillaz with good guitar. Then out of nowhere last month they come out with a brilliant Ballad of Damian. I’m blown away with this song “Goodbye Albert” which is so reassuring and beautifully familiar and can take you back to Modern Life is Rubbish, it’s just like they are saying we’re here, by your side, getting old with you and we always will be. What makes it even more special for me is the video is a cartoon of the Albert Memorial Albert statue, which I just happened to visit three months ago. Thanks Blur for just being there, always.

❤Sound Perfect to me..... Lovers feeling the Existance well done guys❤

Blue is the second coming of the Beatles, convince me otherwise

Reminds me a bit of Lodger one of the best albums of all time ! Really top notch thanks!

It’s actually Prince Albert (Queen Victoria’s husband) who I assume the song is named after, although I’m not sure why, the drawing is of his statue at the Albert memorial in London

Alex's bass on this is very New Order / Peter Hook. Loving that sound 👍
