My girlfriend passed away very suddenly a couple of weeks ago and I was on my own in a bar drinking...and this song came on, which I hadn't heard before. Blur were my favourite band as a child but hadn't listened to them in a years. Hearing an old familiar voice singing a beautiful song like this was so special, like an old friend reaching out to you when you need it the most.

Even more surprised when Blur released the next song. Triple blown away when seeing Blur was touring. Does Damon ever rest? His soul is so full of Divine frequency; constantly creating. This track is excellent. Thanks, Blur! ❤

Goosebumps every time. A perfect meditation on performance, devoid of the usual self-pity such songs usually contain. No, 'oh, woe is me," simply "here's what I've done, and here's what I've learned," without condescension or regret. It's as good a song as Blur's ever written, and it's certainly the best rock song I've heard so far in 2023. This record makes me happy.

@@rkid727 Maybe, but I stand by it. Oasis are one of the most overrated bands in recent memory in my opinion. Some of the most bland and generic songwriting in contemporary rock music, anchored by absolutely irritating vocals. The ongoing feud between the two brothers, was the only remotely interesting thing about them, and even that got tiresome after while, with them coming across like incredibly petulant children.

@@Solarstar10 That’s fine. I compliment Blur and you crap on Oasis. Class.
I have tears in my eyes to see Damon on the stage singing this song. It felt in that moment I've loved him since before I was born.
This is so well mixed, wow. Amazing sound and performance all round!
I thought this was catchy from the first listen but the more I hear it, the more moving the lyrics become too... Blur have still got it!

This track is so personal to Damon. It kinda makes you feel like you're intruding on his private life. But, it's the best track this year so far, so you just have to listen, and again, and again ❤❤
so good to see a proper band......playing proper music.........just lovely...musicians....and song writers........making music.......with heart....and soul........just lovely...
Goosebumps every time. A perfect meditation on performance, devoid of the usual self-pity such songs usually contain. No, 'oh, woe is me," simply "here's what I've done, and here's what I've learned," without condescension or regret. It's as good a song as Blur's ever written, and it's certainly the best rock song I've heard so far in 2023. This record makes me happy.

I read your post as goosebumps were rising on my arms. Superb!
I must have watched this 93 times so far. Superb. Blur are up there with the best ever.
Magic. A brilliant band that evolves, takes risks, loves performing together after all these year. They are beautiful. I adore them.
Best thing out there right now. The album is incredible.
They really hit the ground running with their comeback. It's like they were never away ❤
What a tune. An absolute metric fuck ton of heart.
Magic stuff, Blur never disappointed to the fans. ❤️
Definitely one of my favourite top 10 Blur songs. Like most Blur songs, it sounds so much better live.
When I'm in "the mood" this is one of my favourite songs ever by Blur and from any band in the last 20 years. Blur but middle-aged (in a very good way)
It is nice to see Blur return to top form - they can certainly can write and make a brilliant song - I was lucky to get a golden ticket for their Saturday night Wembley show - it was absolutely gorgeous - the energy in that stadium was a joy to behold.
Still sounding great as always.

Possibly one of their best songs now, love to see them still releasing hits like this one
What a song!!! Unreal that Damon is able to release 2 amazing albums the same year
Best song of the 2020s so far, I reckon. One of few I put on repeat.
What a proper rock tune
Top track..quality never fades
This is the song of the year.
My six year old daughter loves this song since the day she listened to it for the first time. She got hooked on it. It must be because of its perfection.
They’re just brill aren’t they!! May they never stop making and playing music…
This rocks! Sounding better than ever! 🤘🤘🤘
The best song of 2023!

Absolutely , it's a proper song written with heart and soul and there's some magic captured in there , a rare thing nowadays.
Song of the year. One of their best. The lyrics are just beautiful. Oh, glorious world, Oh, potent waves, valleys gone wild, Connect us to love, And keep us peaceful for a while.
Masterpiece! Oldy goldy Blur
I love them and I love their new album, every song is timeless, nostalgic and just beautiful - can't wait to see them play this tomorrow 😍
Phenomenal song, one of their best. Makes me wish more than anything that it was 1995 again.
I keep coming back for this performance. You can even hear Damon's subtle crunch guitar parts too, especially with good headphones (it's panned a bit to the left).
New album out Friday !

There’s way too much drum machine(for me) in the album. What happened to the good old acoustic drum kit in albums?! It’s gives more of a raw edge to it. Shame.
Ive just watched this on the box ,tv, song of the year ,wow
Been listening to this on repeat since it came out, guess I've found my favorite Blur song, live version is great!
This song is like Keys “If I ain’t got you” to my ears.I can listen to it in all versions any time of the day in any mood I am and enjoying it the same every time.
I don't even really like Blur, never have, but this song is pure gold
I was there! Amazing evening!
They've still totally got it! 🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely brilliant. Can't get it out of my head.
What a comeback! Great tune
Great song with lyrics that actually means something important.
That is so Fugging good live.. Killed it
Damon and the gang do it again, another amazing album and this chorus wow 🤩
Fantastic song and a testament to how good they are
The song on the album I keep replaying, unbelievable writing.
Another absolute stoke of genius. Love it.
Honestly the first time I heard it on the radio I felt something was missing, but then every time I listened the deeper it got inside me. Now that I've seen them playing and felt their passion it definitely touched my heart. Thanks so much for your art, always. Abrazos desde Argentina
I love this song, brilliant live performance
It’s been fourteen years since I saw them for the first and so far only time in Hyde Park but I’d happily go see them again. His is a great, catchy song.
Its sooooo good to have the mighty Blur back with a new album 😀😀
I love oasis and blur. And that's why i'm the happiest man on earth
It sounds like Interpol. It’s brilliant. ⭐️
Its just absolutely class Been away for years and come bak with this 👌
I've got a few personal highlights with this band. One was in 1991 when I studied in London and I saw them at the Venue in New Cross. Then in 1995 at Roskilde, post Parklife.
one of their best. great song!!
Beautiful song from a beautiful album. Overjoyed they're still around.
This song is really good
Great band, God bless them x
This feels like a U2 song. I can imagine Bono singing this with Edge doing those Graham back up vocals x
Amazing. Not sure about the rest of the album yet, but this song is 10/10. Barbaric is the only other track that stood out on my first listen
