I listened to the debut play of it, one evening on Radio 1, they played it twice - I know this cos I tape-recorded it. I liked it when I first heard it and never fell out with it. It's certainly in my top 3 Blur songs nowadays. Live, it sounds so much more beautiful - I don't think I could tire of i...

7 times...just laziness. I could of put more effort in, especially in 09...

In my young teenager Blur Obsessed days, every Service Station I went to (with mum & dad, mostly on the M6) I wondered if it was THAT one! I'd look for Postman Pat and the blur sticker in the toilets!

Leonard Cohen - Dance me to the End of Love

And the mind gets dirty as you get closer to 50!
Go Out about jerkin the gherkin? wow! A bit weird, though Graham did sing he'd rather sleep with his right hand...So the magic WHIP could be a bit of the ole S&M? Corr, Blur have gone x-rated.

The forum should change it's name to The Blur Forum Elites.
Nice to see familiar names and sigs, and also new names (unless maybe you've changed your Handle)

Theme From Retro - definitely!( the vocals at the end was picked up by security as the band, or whoever entered a club "Uh what is that you have there? Looks like a recording device of some kind") The story goes something like that anyway. The Debt Collector at Number 2 and probably French Song at 3...

Under the Skin

Very weird film. Very weird indeed. It is certainly worth the watch

The Hives - Main Offender

There was no need for ye olde forum to be removed completely. I appreciate that forums are now passe, but just leave it as an archive - for nostalgia at least. I remember when the whole forum was trimmed back in around 05...and they made out they were doing us a favour.

Bang is actually one of my favorite Blur singles ever. I know the band definitely doesn't agree :lol: Bang is by far one of the most underrated Blur songs, ever. I absolutely love it. That guitar riff is heaven. YES! Nothing wrong with Bang. In fact I don't think Leisure has any "bad songs" on it, ...

13 Blur Parklife / Modern Life is Rubbish Think Tank The Great Escape / Leisure We all know of the "life trilogy", but I have always thought it was a shame we didn't get a "numbers trilogy", imagine if we had two more follow ups to 13 produced by Orbit...with what D&G were doing in the post 13 years...

Under the Westway A little beauty...Though I find it difficult to belt my lungs out as I do with Tender & The Universal to a song about an ugly London bridge Fool's Day I was never keen when it first came out (they had a huge impact to make I guess) but I have warmed to it in the last couple of yea...

so it's actually happening...after all those years of teasing...and then calling it a day. The first news I got wind of was an FB friend re-posting the Live Poster and I cringed thinking it'd be another greatest hits gig with a remote single. I'm very delighted for TMW - very delighted indeed. I thi...
