I can't remember the last time a song gave me goosebumps. I can't believe just how incredibly beautiful the chorus is, that contrast between an upbeat, uplifting melody and the crushingly sad lyrics. This is a masterpiece.
Read this comment on the video version…. The song is so good it’s worth the same comment twice !!!! 😊
i really love this song
This is barbaric you mean?
It's a good song but goosebumps lmao 🤣 you just said this to get a few likes hah
Goose bumps.. Are you kidding. It's shit
There's something nostalgic about this song even though it's been out for only a few days. Gives summery road trip vibes.
Same with narcissist
It’s because it’s blur
It is the jangly riff
One of the 10 best Blur songs. It’s a song talking to my 46 year old self. Love you, Blur.
Hey you might enjoy a band called the Doublejumps if you like Blur
As a 46 year old man myself I completely understand.
Also 46!
I’m also edging on half a century and they have been a part of my every day every play list always forever singing the theme songs to my experiences in life…along with a few other bands I could never stop listening too. 🖖🥳✨🌎💖🥳 ✨🎊
48 in Belgium!
This song makes me cry and smile at the same time.
Graham Coxon's guitar work on this song is so beautiful. The bass is also great.
Totally agree… doesn’t over do it but adds so much
Only Blur can make the word Barbaric sound as if it was a synonym for great
Easy
I don't think you understand the song
@@matthewbest6077 I don't think you understand my comment, let alone music. Bye.
@@matthewbest6077 It's called ironicus melodious. Barbaric means one thing, yet sounds like another.
Who blinks first?
You're gonna win
The fallen doves of lovers' vows
In the world all around us
And I'd like, if you've got the time
To talk to you about what this breakup has done to me
I have lost the feeling that I thought I'd never lose
Now where am I going?
At what cost, the feeling that I thought I'd never lose
Now you can't play to every taste
The powder keg of common cause
All of us carry trauma
And in owe of an explanation
I will pour oil from the cup on the pyre of abdication
You have lost
The feeling that you thought you'd never lose
Now wherе are you going, darling?
At what cost, the feeling that you thought you'd nevеr lose
And it is barbaric
Empty grove, winter darkness
We're taking down the scaffolds very soon
Grow dappled, the lonely baubles on the plane tree
The can of soup and heating up to ten
Which leads me to the part
Where we agreed on different dreams
That we had lost the feeling that we thought we'd never lose
Now where are we going?
At what cost, the feeling that we thought we'd never lose
It is barbaric
We have lost the feeling that we thought we'd never lose
Now where are we going?
We have lost, the feeling that we thought we'd never lose
It is barbaric, darling
We have lost the feeling that we thought we'd never lose
Now where are we going?
We have lost, the feeling that we thought we'd never lose
It is barbaric
No one does happy/sad like blur. Beautiful song
予想の遥か上、斜め45度の青空のような美しさの曲でほのぼのできて良かったです😊
Really need a permanent version of this whole show made available! It was soooo good
This sounds like the Blur I fell in love with back in the 1990s. Well done, fellas.
Brilliant joyful sadness. It’s a great song from a great album.
Easily a top 10 Blur song along with The Heights off the new album. Just magic.
Definitely one of the 10 best songs on last album.
I listened to the album whilst trying to fall asleep, "The Heights" was a proud jumpscare.
Don't forget Avalon
Could not agree more. Barbaric and The Heights are two of the top five songs Blur has ever made, Truth
@@mattszydlowski HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Blur’s new album is amazingly good. Superb songwriting
This is gonna be their big hit from this album, for sure.
I find the whole album fantastic I can listen to each song and not skip any I have my favorites barbaric being one I was at the live show last night I didn’t want it to end
Album is a masterpiece. Their Abbey Road.
@@Ukedc259don't say that cause that means they're breaking up next year
It really is their most complete album. Top to bottom, no filler, brilliance.
Avalon a bit weak..🤔
@@mikecummings3149 love that track! We all hear it differently I guess. :)
Terrific album, congratulations and this is easily one of the best Blur songs you've ever done 🎯🔥
I love Blur. Thank you so much for giving us this album! I’m blown away and can’t stop listening to it on repeat. I’ve been a fan since 1994.
It is amazing, something that's been missing so badly in the last 20 years, gonna have to buy it, not sure in what format, I don't do cds anymore but I have decks....
I love it! Such a fan of Graham Coxon, he doesn’t over do it but still adds a great riff
So happy to be there absolutely beautiful and perfect performance or a beautiful song
Coxon is just a great player. He has such a unique style that just elevates this great band
SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG! ❤️
We have looost! All the shows in Brazil that we thought we'd never lose, now where are we going? Chile?
I think this was my favourite album from Blur, they managed to keep the same energy throughout the whole ten songs. This is definitely my favourite song out of all the ten songs...
I really hope this isn't the last LP released by Blur, I just hope they could go on forever.
Just a perfectly melancholy song by Blur it makes 2023 so much good ❤
Hey you might enjoy a band called the Doublejumps if you like Blur
we've lost the feeling that we thought we'd never lose.
This hurts...
Sings from the heart, so perhaps his personal break up which he’s currently experiencing
Best song of darren . We need more stuff like that
Hey you might enjoy a band called the Doublejumps if you like Blur
Having read the news about Damon and Suzi splitting up, makes this song all the more heart-breaking!! 😩
Welcome back, my friends, the World missed you.
i miss blur song like this 🎉🎉🎉
"I have lost, the feeling that I thought I never lose". Joder, que gran canción y que gran álbum se marcó Damon y compañía. A pesar de que la canción pueda ser romántica, o no, acerca del fin de una relación, yo siento que a mí me habla de otra cosa. Perdimos ese sentimiento que pensamos que nunca íbamos a perder. Para mi ese sentimiento es el significado de la vida. Siento que como generación hemos perdido el camino, que todos vamos por ahí sin rumbo, perdimos la alegría, ese sentimiento, esa emotividad, esa llama de esperanza, esa rebeldía en cierta forma. Conforme pasan los años y nos volvemos viejos, cada vez lo que alguna vez le dábamos significado deja de tenerlo, ya no lo valoramos como antes. Y a pesar de que en mi caso fue algo bueno para mejora personal, siento que al perder todo lo que alguna vez me gustaba, lo que pensaba, lo que predicaba, y por lo que luchaba, ha hecho que no me queden motivos para seguir. No sé, llámenme romántico o alguna otra cosa, pero siento que las cosas son así desde mi opinión. Que gran álbum de Blur, un álbum altamente melancólico, reflexivo, tranquilo, que es justo lo que necesitaba. Pero eso sí, con unos ritmos para mover el esqueleto aunque sea un rato. Un abrazo a todos
Comparto cada una de tus palabras, Blur en su madurez musical, no paro de escuchar esta canción y es así..nos avisa Blur que se nos termino una etapa
Estos tipos no se cansan de hacer clásicos. Saludos :)
Precioso y real comentario. Crecimos con Blur.
The world, our body, etc change as time goes on....so it's normal to have such feelings I guess. But we can choose to have whatever mindset we wish to have in the present/coming days, before we go on to the next life : )
La generación actual está siendo arruinada por la adicción al internet, los algoritmos y la inmediatez. Alguna vez traté de buscarle las 3 patas al gato con ese asunto, pero me di cuenta que sólo basta vivir para sentirse vivo.
La vida nunca ha perdido su sentido, es sólo que es difícil verlo con una pantalla enfrente.
Song of the year. Any day of the year.
Aguante Bluuuuur papaaaaa
The sweetest most cheerfull tune, combined with those 3:10 melancholic lyrics .. omg Blur. I love you so much. Thank you for this ❤ never leave us
This actually might be the best song they've ever written!
I got into Blur through Modern Life is Rubbish and Parklife in the mid 90s. And I've been following everything everyone of them has done since then. So much brilliant music. And they keep producing and producing. Not just Damon (please check The Waeve as well and Dave's solo debut). And while later tracks like "Fool's Day" and "Under the Westway" are some of my absolute favourite Blur songs, I honestly did not think that I could be this enthusiastic about a Blur album again. It's amazing, and it keeps growing and growing on me. How can a band that has existed for 35 years release such a fresh, relevant and brilliant album? Just having bought my first record player, I even had to order the zoetrope vinyl version. I urge everyone to listen to the whole album!
Erm what about all of Graham's solo albums?? They are awesome too :) haha, I love your comment ;)
pls release the full livestream ❤

LAST CHANCE: you still have until Friday 28th to catch blur present “The Ballad of Darren”
• On Demand: Wednesday 26 July at 1.00pm BST - Friday 28 July at 1.00pm BST
Graham Coxon is one of the most underrated lead guitarists of all time - this track would be so much poorer without his constant noodling
He’s hardly underrated 😂
@@jonathanoneill6137 outside guitar geek circles, I would argue he is, massively so in fact. He’s as much of what makes Blur’s sound Blur’s sound as, say, Frusciante is for RHCPs. Poll 10,000 people worldwide on the best Britpop guitarist though and I bet you good money Noel Gallagher (LOL) gets namechecked miles more than the Coxons or Butlers of this world.
@@InspirationSessions I was at blur at Mile End, and before that. He was always held up as amazing by everyone, oasis where great but became a chav band as they appealed to drunk lads, and Noel Gallagher is average at best so your make believe poll would be irrelevant anyway 😀 but I see your point
@@jonathanoneill6137 I was at Alexandra Parklife in 1994 (?) and I quite agree
Best song off the album for me!
One of my favorites of the new album!!!
Alex James straight from the farm with those shorts
Being there in that crowd really cemented my love of the album. Blur really have achieved something truly special here *wipes tears from eyes*.
This year has has been truly special as a Blur fan, feeling the love!
love this song so much omg
soooooo fresh thank you
Such a mightily terrific tune!! That key change at the end is magnificent and takes it into anthem territory!!
Hey you might enjoy a band called the Doublejumps if you like Blur
Yesss , when he sings the final part in the higher , even more urgent , plaintive register .. DAHHLINNN!!! ❣️❣️❣️
One of the greatest bands of all time, in my opinion. Please don't ever stop bringing so much joy to our lives.
woooo
ブラーが明るいわ！
傑作よ
You know a good tune when you hear it ..enjoy
Top form, were also top form at Wembley. Re-living my teens at the moment 😂
Who blink first? 💝💝💝
Perfection. This and the whole album.
Fantastic night last night, and what a tune Barbaric is. 👌
what a tune!
Just when you thought Damon wouldn’t create anything better than his latest songs, he comes and gives us this wonderful melody and lyrics ❤
❤️❤️❤️
This song speaks to me in so many ways and comes in a time I needed him the most. What an absolute beautiful album btw. All the love for Blur!
Tremenda versión 🔥
I had the chance to watch the livestream as a birthday gift ❤️❤️ this song has been stuck with me since the first time I heard it
Dream come true to see blur back in the picture and with such a great album.. Glastonbury next year …?.?.? I wish 😬😬😬😂
best song on the album for mine.. should be a single and then a HUGE hit for them ... cracking tune
Seeing this live was life changing ✨
Which is better - the narcissist or barbaric? its close for me, but leaning towards barbaric. Of course we dont have to choose, they are both amazing, thanks blur.
Beautiful atmosphere, and still superb....!
Wish id have been there 😔
What an amazing gig! Love this song so much
Every time you hear it, you love it more and more. Es tan bonito!!!
Absolutely magnificent song. One of their best.
What an album
they keep going 😊
1st time played live in Lucca was also great
Love it❤!
This song is just unreal. Love the chord change at the end
golden
TEMAZOOOOOOOOOOOO
Absolutely incredible song. Sounds fantastic live
Hey you might enjoy a band called the Doublejumps if you like Blur
Thanks for a great album!
This song especially made me feel the ongoing blur.
You guys will always be the most beloved band in the world.
Love this band so much.
BluR for comeback of the century ... May the Force be with you!
Absolutely brilliant song!
Blur is...💖
It sounds even better alive. 🫶🏻
Que lindo suena en vivo.. Excelente tema.❤
What a comeback! Brilliant album.
Mágica ❤
BARBARIC IS SO GOOD 😭❤️❤️❤️
Es demasiado bello. Gracias ❤ You made me cry
best track of the album
Absolutely SUPERB song from a masterpiece of an album. Blur are better than ever.
Masterpiece
This song is rather special - Damon split from his long term partner - Feels like this song is inspired from his own personal experience - Writing songs when love breaks down can be very therapeutic especially when we have lost the feeling that the feeling you thought we would never lose - Where are we going - It's barbaric.
Never knew that until just now, how very sad. It's my favourite song at the moment, I can't stop listening to it and it's really taken on a new meaning... no wonder it gives goosebumps. It's masterfully written, I can't ever imagine being so eloquent.
Dale Bluuuuuur
This is right up there with their best songs.
Nunca pensé que perdería ese sentimiento que no volveré a tener.
so good!!!!
Gracias Blur , excelente cancion !!!
The best track on the Album ❤ Lots of Indie vibes from the 2000s like The Strokes and Arctic Monkeys ❤. Maybe a nod to The Killers? But in Albarn version, The best
honestly incredible.
