CockleHocker Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Fuck off! 15 years?! I feel so old now! And dickheads on youtube are still going on about it. It really was/is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizzybear Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 ^^ :whip: i doubt anyone is going to agree with that in here. Fuck off! 15 years?! I feel so old now! And dickheads on youtube are still going on about it. It really was/is ridiculous. Yah, they were completely different bands, with different sounds so it was silly to compare them. I still think Blur were always more creative and not afraid to change things up every album. And obviously Damon has gone on to work with all kinds of creative ppl and make all kinds of awesome music! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Sales figures wise Oasis won, musically Blur won ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CockleHocker Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 ^Yeah - since when have sales figures been the measure of quality? The whole oasis vs Blur thing was ridiculous. People are such idiots. The media is always behind this kind of bullshit and people always fall for it hook, line and sinker. It sold lots of papers though, didn't it? I just find it so strange that people still get so worked up about it. Every time you look at a Blur vid on youtube there's comments comparing the two. I assume it's the same the other way around also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzybear Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 :wacky: yeah. and well Oasis were more popular in the States :sick: I don't think Blur cared though, they've never really liked the States that much anyway and I have a lot of respect for them not sucking up to our media and stuff to try and get popular with the radio stations over here. All we play is crap anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CockleHocker Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Yeah, they really didn't try to ingratiate themselves with the media much - well certainly not after '95 anyway. People are definitely idiots alright! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzybear Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Sorry for this TMI but I had some VERY naughty dreams with Graham... :embarrassed: I don't even know what to think, except post Graham pictures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizzybear Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 ^ :wacky: love it!! not to bring up the battle again.. but i found this and couldn't stop laughing... but it's also cute about Damon wanting to be a dad and stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eff-exx Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Over here, Oasis' albums can easily be found, but so far, I don't think I've seen any Blur albums, other than Midlife, Best of and All The People (Hyde Park audio). :sad: Blur won the battle, but Oasis won the war (in the end) I have to agree. But if Damon Albarn's achievements are counted in in the even longer run, I would say Blur won. Blur reunited, Oasis broke up. I suppose I am a little biased... :shame: ^ :wacky: love it!! not to bring up the battle again.. but i found this and couldn't stop laughing... but it's also cute about Damon wanting to be a dad and stuff :laugh3::laugh3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CockleHocker Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 So, I'm thinking of buying 'A bit of a Blur' by Alex James. Has anyone read it? Is it good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loudefix Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Gotta love early b-sides On day it will be mine ! So, I'm thinking of buying 'A bit of a Blur' by Alex James. Has anyone read it? Is it good? I never read "A bit of blur" but all those who read it find it good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzybear Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 So, I'm thinking of buying 'A bit of a Blur' by Alex James. Has anyone read it? Is it good? It's amazing! You gotta read it. Alex's Damon stories are hilarious and even though it's written by him you really find out a lot more about each of them. I found it very sweet how endearing he was towards Graham especially but also Damon. I also found this quote today that I find hilarious! And the bass player’s a closet faggot who wants his nose smacking in. He pinched my arse - proper pinched it when I was out. I turned around and went “What do you think you’re doing?” And he went “Alright mate?” I’ll give you alright, you ****. But apart from that, I like ‘em [laughs] — Noel Gallagher talking about Alex James Oh my god, Alex! :laugh3: So this is how the rivalry started!

By pinching Noel Gallagher's ass? :wtf: :laugh3: If I'm not mistaken, Noel Gallagher hates Alex and Damon the most from Blur, right? :thinking: I remember reading that he wished for them to catch AIDS and die, but then he apologized for that statement.

Lizzybear Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Hahahahah I still am laughing like crazy from that quote. And yeah, Noel said he wished Alex and Damon would die of aids. I can imagine Alex annoying the Oasis guys to no end! :lol: Given Liam Gallagher’s ongoing animosity towards Blur – at last year’s Q Awards, some five years after the Blur v Oasis feud raged in the tabloids, Liam heckled Blur bassist Alex James with shouts of “Fatboy” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
