    About Blur:
    Blur were formed in 1989 by Damon Albarn, Graham Coxon, Alex James and Dave Rowntree and signed with Food/EMI the same year. Announcing their arrival with debut album Leisure in 1991, Blur continued to revolutionise the sound of English popular music with second release Modern Life Is Rubbish (1993). Five successive UK #1 albums followed - with Parklife (1994) and The Great Escape (1995) helping to propel the band to mass popularity in the UK and beyond. The eponymous Blur was released in 1997 and seventh album Think Tank (2003) was Blur’s first as a three-piece after the temporary departure of founding guitarist Graham Coxon.
    Twenty one years after the release of their debut album, 2012 saw Blur 21: The Box, the band's body of work compiled and gathered together into one box. Their most recent release as a four-piece, the critically acclaimed chart-topping album The Magic Whip (2015), started life in Hong Kong when the band had an unexpected break in touring in May 2013.

    Every time I come here
    I'm not sure what to say
    I know it should be easy
    But it never seems that way
    You, you make me feel
    Like no one ever will
    So why, why do you bore me?
    Until my heart is still
    You, you wear me down
    My defenses are gone now
    And I can't fight
    You, you wear me down
    My defenses are gone now
    And I can't fight
    I can't say I love you easily
    But you wouldn't want me to
    So I'd rather just say nothing
    And leave it up to you
    Then it's easy to forget
    You're just as small as me
    Then it's easy to forget
    You're just as foolish as me
    You, you wear me down
    My defenses are gone now
    And I can't fight
    You, you wear me down
    My defenses are gone now
    And I can't fight you
    You, you make me feel
    Like no one ever will
    So why, why do you bore me?
    Until my heart is still
    You, you wear me down
    My defenses are gone now
    And I can't fight
    You, you wear me down
    My defenses are gone now
    And I can't fight you

    @senatunca7778 Před 5 lety +40

    knowing blur since 2014 but never considered listening to this album completely because even damon hated this album so i thought it cant be that good! but just hearing the first second of this song made me regret my decision and i can say this album deserves more attention and love and this song is the best song to end an album after weezers only in dreams

    This is a good classic album it's not clever or massively ambitions but it works very well and has lots of energy Albarn shouldn't be so hard on it.

    • @WilliamBarker
      @WilliamBarker Před 4 lety +8

      Too right. This album metamorphized over one summer in North London. The Odd Eccentric at the beginning of the summer, a Brit Pop Scene by the end. The Loved up summer, oh yeah.

    • @k-leb4671
      @k-leb4671 Před 3 lety +6

      I think he just dislikes it so much because the band had so many ideas to show off and then the label basically neutered their debut and told them it could only be madchester and a bit of shoegaze. Sing didn't even make it to the US version.
      If you listen to b-sides from this era, you'll hear what their potential really was at the time.

    The single most criminally underrated song,quite possibly,of all time.NME et al consistantly circle jerked over Modern Life,Parklife,Blur and Thirteen but always gave Leisure a critical mauling,me personally,I don't believe there's a bad song on it and simultaneously it's aged beautifully particularly this track and Sing,definitely one of the most overlooked albums of all time....

  • @kamilyakadyr7063
    @kamilyakadyr7063 Před rokem +3

    This, "Repetition" and in some parts, "Sing" are the closest things to grunge that ever came from Blur, naturally of course, (Song 2 was intended to be a grunge parody). When I first heard this, I got so thrown of by the fact that an English dude was singing over a grunge melody, because I was expecting some American guy with a raspy voice to start singing. It seems like "Leisure" borrowed so many elements from grunge, or it had that sad and melancholic tone to it at least, would make sense if it did, because this album came out when the grunge musical style was in it's prime time.

    Boo! Make it a lyric video. I was there. In the Powerhaus Islington Angel for the record launch. I was doing the sound on stage, they played this song, I sat back looked out over their heads and into the crowd, and thought, this is what it must have been like to be at the Whiskey when the Doors played. A golden moment in time. Brilliant!

    I used to go swimming (and wear a swimming hat) where my ex bf was working as lifeguard for like £3.50 p/h. No lie. Sweet gig, right?! We made sure he landed on his feet! He didn't know I was there as I kinda looked a bit like primary school age, but a bit older and I never made eye contact with him, just freaked him out, so he'll never know, right? Right??

    Cada vez que vengo aquí
    No estoy seguro de qué decir
    Sé que debería ser fácil
    Pero nunca parece ser así
    Tú, me haces sentir
    Como nadie lo hará
    Entonces, ¿por qué me aburres?
    Hasta que mi corazón esté quieto
    Tú, me desgastas
    Mis defensas se han ido ahora
    Y no puedo pelear
    Tú, me desgastas
    Mis defensas se han ido ahora
    Y no puedo pelear
    No puedo decir que te amo fácilmente Pero no querrías que yo
    Así que prefiero no decir nada
    Y déjalo en tus manos
    Entonces es fácil olvidar
    Eres tan pequeño como yo
    Entonces es fácil olvidar
    Eres tan tonto como yo
    Tú, me desgastas
    Mis defensas se han ido ahora
    Y no puedo pelear
    Tú, me desgastas
    Mis defensas se han ido ahora
    Y no puedo luchar contra ti
    Tú, me haces sentir
    Como nadie lo hará
    Entonces, ¿por qué me aburres?
    Hasta que mi corazón esté quieto
    Tú, me desgastas
    Mis defensas se han ido ahora
    Y no puedo pelear
    Tú, me desgastas
    Mis defensas se han ido ahora
    Y no puedo luchar contra ti

      I'm curious as well. This album was released in August 1991, a month before Nevermind was released and blew Nirvana up into popularity. So obviously it wasn't inspired by anything on Nevermind or In Utero. I was thinking the guitar was more inspired by Black Sabbath, you know, the band that Nirvana and practically every other Grunge band ripped off.
