hah. no i don't mind if you have one or not.

 

Another Parklife lover :heart: yay.

'Twas a joke :nice:

 

Ahh yes, Parklife is lovely. Girls&Boys and Tracy Jacks are so fun, but This Is A Low is probably my favourite song.

 

:lol: naaah, it's fine. i'm planning on just getting the best of, seeing what i like on that, and then going from there.
Good plan! You'll probably know a few songs off it already (and probably think how it is possible you never realised it was Blur who made them).

 

 

Or at least that's what happened to me. I was surprised while I listened to Tender and Song 2 from The Best Of. :laugh4:

:o

 

holy....

 

hiya! :nice:

i was wondering, dear thread.. what blur album should i start out with?

 

try Midlife. it's good. :nice:

 

it's hard to get Blur albums over here. i've only seen The Best of Blur, Midlife and All the People (the live recording of their performance @ Hyde Park). :disappointed:

 

but their Britpop days' album sounds good, judging by their singles.

Specially high yes! :D

 

Well Parklife is the best one. Just sayin' :p

 

Perrine have you found time to watch No Distance Left to Run yet?

Will listen to it asap!

 

Yes! I watched the half of it, but it's kinda annoying cause their accents are quite hard to understand, especially Graham's, so I tried to find subtitles (even english ones) but no success so I stopped here... which is too bad cause it's such an awesome documentary :sad:

Haha that happened to me too!

I just knew that Song2 was one of their songs, but other than that I was so surprised! :D

Maybe you'll understand it better if you watch it more than just once... :sneaky:

 

Hope you'll find subtitles somewhere!

Yup :lol: I was especially surprised by Tender, Beetlebum and The Universal.

Crap! I didn't even think about that. That sucks, but either way I still encourage you to try to watch the whole thing if you can :nice: do you understand any parts of what they are saying? Yes, Graham's voice is cute, but I could see how it could be hard to understand if English wasn't your native language.

 

 

 

 

Alex on an Opera show. He is such an idiot I love him :lol:

Haha yes sometimes you tend to forget that^^

I'll watch it all when i'll be on holiday! Yeah of course I understand some parts, but it's annoying to miss bits :sad:

His voice isn't very loud either, so that makes it even harder to understand, so I do understand Damon better :nice:

 

Ooh god this video is hilarious! How did he end up doing this? xD

I think his voice isn't that bad, plus he's brave enough to sing in front of so many people :D

i don't know why, but i like it when Damon looks high. :lol:

Hahah, look at his tongue! :laugh4:

 

Re Popstar to Operastar... I can't stop laughing. Poor Alex. :lol:

 

I know!:laugh3: Alex is just too funny! My book should be arriving any day I'm so exited to read it!

 

Yeah probably :D

Or maybe I'll buy the dvd if I can find it!

Yah, I'm sorry :shame:

 

Who knows. But you should know that Alex absolutely LOVES attention and so that's probably why he did this show. I read this one story where he was at some celebrity party/ shindig and the paparazzi were there taking pics of other celebs and he was getting a bit jealous so he pulled them aside and said something like, "So where do you want me to stand? Should I stand like this? Or that?" :laugh3: he is SUCH an attention whore, i love it!

Oh I see :lol: It's not bad but I think other albums are better... there's something about the lyrics (they're not cringeworthy!!!) that I don't particularly like. :blank:

 

 

I'm planning on reading it too, I just need to buy it :D

Leisure is not their best album but there is some fantastics songs like Sing.

 

Here is my ranking :

Modern Life Is Rubbish

Parklife

13 / Think Tank

Blur

The Great Escape

Leisure

 

And my avorite song is probably Popscene !

But surely you've heard 'She is so high' and 'There's no other way' right? The album is still good, not their best of course, but they were just starting out :nice:

 

& I think it's cool how Guy loves Sing and he put it on in the Coldplay dressing room and he said it inspired the song Lost! Even tho he said Lost! sounds nothing like Sing, some how it still inspired them to write it. :D
