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.
#Blur #Bang #Leisure
Not only one of the most underrated Blur songs, but also very overlooked video. I find it fantastic.
Glad so many people saying that on here...
It's funny cause Dave Rowntree (The Drummer) says this is his favourite Blur video.
i'm obsessed with this song
Aaron Thomas
It's probably because he actually got to be in it XD
Thrillseeker8922 Agreed!
According to Blur, this song was written in just 15 minutes but I think it’s great!
no way
jojo there’s no other way
Some of the best song are, they just come along
Sounds like it.
Totally!
Funny how Blur hate this song when fans really really love it!
Same with country house
It’s Blur. You’ll never know what they REALLY feel. That’s the point.
that’s because we’re bitchless and they’re not
They don't hate this as much as Country House 😂😂
WHA- I didn’t knew that.
Wish i was in London in the 90's. Looked like a blast
I justo love London ♥️.
And in the 90's people were saying the same about the 60's.
LilHaseProductions In my opinion always iss cool
@Dimitri von zhagk That's not true get out
@Dimitri von zhagk immigrants have done more for our country than most brits tbh
the bass line in this song is amazing
Alexxxxxx
@@invisiblecurious856cheese man lol
Real Alex was cooking
every bass line by blur is amazing. listen to some of their songs with only the bass, it's great.
They're so young and cute here.
Forreals I wanna hug them
i want to clone them
Young and lovely
Damon and Alex are still cute, rowntree and graham didn't age so well
shan Nah Graham is a cutie
Damon has the best dance moves XD
+Beamkatana Blazerose With Thom Yorke XD
Lol yeah he's adorable
You should see Roland Orzabal in the Tears For Fears vids lol
It's normal to feel life is good when listening to this kind of music ?
Feeling good is an understatement
Not normal - but then being normal is over-rated...
2:06 I love this guy even if if he triplicates my age
Same 🏃♀️
SAME BYEE
can we talk how beautiful Graham looks here?
hello, can we talk about how beautiful they all look here?
Yes please
Cute asf (no homo)
Here? Can we talk about how beautiful Graham looks?
Just look em now, age sucks.
These early Blur singles are just flawless.
I really don't know why they think that leisure is a bad album, ok its no parklife, blur blur ....but I think it's good!
Riviere8281 i don't think many people think it's bad. It's an okay, or average album for many. Personally I like it, yes, it's no Parklife or MLIR or 13 but it's still a good album. Blur is one of the rare groups which released 8 albums and all of them are at least good, or great.
Riviere8281 I don't know that they hate Leisure, but they have said they hate this single.
+TheChiLeana 13 is your go to album from blur? Interesting, i find it to be the worst out of all their albums.
i don't know if this album is considering "bad" for the most of people, but for the band, yes, because its not what they looking for (also, sorry for my english)
+Asillyhobo Damon says this Album is "Awful"
I love this band more than words can articulate
You said it!
Real (I’m hyper fixated on them rn😼)
Sitting in a SDT
Waiting for an underground train
To rumble underneath my feet
Bang goes another day
Where it went I could not say
Now I'll have to wait another week
When all is said and all is done
What was said was never done
Don't panic, it's not really worth your while
Bang goes another year
In and out of one ear
Everybody's doing it, so do it too
I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better
I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better
Sitting on the early bus
Passing through the morning rush
It makes no difference that I'm not with you
Bang goes another year
In and out of one ear
Everybody's doing it, I'll do it too
I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better
I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better
I don't need anyone
But a little of your love can make things better
I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better
I don't need anyone
But a little of your love can make things better
Thanks man
What is an SDT, anyway?
@@DTD110865 i heard 'STD' 😂
I believe SDT is sensory deprivation tank - i.e switching off mentally, checking out, mindless drone f as can be the case on a commute on the tube, the banality of life, the only thing making it good is the girl
Pls someone talk about Dave, he IS too cute!
I need a video just Dave doing stick tricks and Alex playing bass
ah yes a raging cocaine addict
Dave has had the same face forever. I believe Dave is a vampire.
no
REAL BRO HES SO UNDERRATED AND FOR WHAT💔
graham looks so cute n precious,,, wow i love that man
Justine is in the video if you look closely (she's sitting at the table opposite Damon and Alex at 1:00), and the Centre Point building Damon and Graham are standing in front of at 0:34 was designed by her father.
Nice catch!
2:07 WHY DID HE START DANCING IM CRYING I DIDNT SEE THAT COMING LOLZ☆
I was so rabid for “britpop” back in Oklahoma in the 90s, that I would drive 3 1/2 hours(one way) to Dallas, TX to Bill’s Records and Tapes, just to get my hands on anything I could get. One trip down, I bought the “There’s No Other Way” single without even hearing it. The name blur and the cover of the cd was enough for me. I also got “The Only One I Know” single by the Charlatans. Wow. Two classic debut singles(not counting Indian Rope) by two bands that I love still. I raced back home with a bag of goodies and Bill or one of his “curated” employees slipped in a free promo copy of blur’s “Leisure” album. No cover. Just plain sleeve. When I got to this, Bang stood out as a great follow-up to “There’s no other way”. It was bouncy and mid tempo Coxon shimmery goodness. I’m so proud to be the right age at the moment these bands happened.
I don't need anyone
But a little love would make things better
I don't need anyone

Literally, my actual mood.
HELP DAMON DANCING IN THIS VIDEO 😭😭
I love how the riff seems to change when the drums come in depending on how you've heard it.
Perhaps Damon came here and disliked it himself:
"Bang! Our worst ever. Just appalling, lyrically and musically. If we ever do a singles compilation we’ll rewrite history to omit it.
People come up to us in Italy and they say, ‘Why you no play Bang! Ees my very favourite song!’ And I just find it impossible to continue the conversation. I don’t think you can get it right every single time. You just have to hope it’s right more often than not."
nme 1995
Well I love this song. Bands are notorious for hating their own stuff in hindsight. It's the fans that matter.
@androconium what *is* he wearing anyway?
@@seanjohnson3401 Good question! A Halloween mask of some sort...................?
26 years later he might think different
Sounds similar but not the same fools gold the stone roses.
God it can't get any more British than this.
Parklife is also sooooooooooooooooooooooooo British
@@davimag2071 Parklife is probably the most British pop-rock song in existence.
No the kinks are the village green preservation society is
have you seen Parklife
@@k-leb4671 porklife is more British
This was one of the first blur songs I ever heard. I have mad respect for this band, and I have had since I first heard them some time in the nineties.
graham is so fucking cute bye
I love the nocturnal-yet-upbeat aura of these early 90s UK rock videos. It's as if they sensed something BIG was coming later on in the decade, and it did. Little did we know, Blur would be at the genesis, forefront, and end of such an era, and would regroup over a decade later with more musical triumphs!!
15 minutes and they still write better music than a majority of the shite today.
yeah but these days not a lot of people appreciate songs like this.. it makes me sad lol
It only got worse didn’t it?
Still true, 12 years after you wrote that comment.
damon is my dream boy 😧
I overlooked this Song when listening to Leisure, how could it happen? Now, years later, I really love it ❤
Tomorrow comes today was a reference to this video
I think u might be right
not really these kinds of videos were really popular in the 90s/early 2000s
Omg yes
@@Bi_scotti_5 Not only because of "Oh it looks like Tomorrow comes today", but also because both are songs of Damon Albarn :p
@@davimag2071 what are you talking about that's not a line in either song
One of my favourite Blur songs. One of their most underrated. To this day I still don't know what an S.D.T. is...
looked it up cause i got curious, too. apparently it’s “sensory deprivation tank”
@@cheeseball94 Ha - I thought it must be something I just don't get because I'm not British!
Southern District Train
*inhales*
Alex James
Timing this for bang goes another year
great song, great band, great city
brilliant band
Cristóbal Rebolledo great britain
2:07 just imagine it with "Im a Scatman", and it will be a meme
In The Graham's room: Beatles for Sale, Bob Dylan's Blondie On Blondie, Forever Changes (Love) and Time Vaults, of Van Der Graaf Generator.
Amazing shots of London in this vid
+Dav Brine Blur sempre \o/ confesso que vi esse clipe há pouco tempo, achei bem legal
+Dav Brine também não entendo, esse aí é bem melhor
Muito bom, mas pra mim é o Parklife
Melissa Borges Você tá em todas! Grande gosto musical
Maria Tereza Obrigada :p
I know Damon and I think the other 3 members hate this song, but I reckon it's actually one of the most interesting and complex "baggy beats" songs they made during the time...which isn't a high bar to pass considering it's baggy music.
This song has more lyrics than most on Leisure, and some cool lead and bass guitar parts. Plus, I think the intro to the song is surprisingly captivating.
There's still many songs Blur made during the time that are much better, but I don't think this is bottom-of-the-barrel material.
High school in h 0:51 hybrid 0:53 0:53 😅bh😅in 😊hijiib😊😊hj😊ribbed is ibjii😅i😅hills is not
what i loved most about this video was how graham looked like he was playing lying down on the floor
I thought when he said “bang goes” he was saying “mangos”
Right.....mangos another year?
I CANT UNHEAR THIS ANYMORE AHAHAHAHAHA
They’re all gorgeous
You're so right though
I just want his voice in m' head on a constant.
Carole-Rose Wilkinson well said
This songs been in my head for a week now....had to pump this up in the automobile tonight!
aw, I love baby Blur.
My favorite Blur song I've heard so far.
SF Popscene, Loved Ones and my scooter club’s 30th reunion this Labor Day in SF! Cannot wait!!!
🎯 🪩🛵🥰
Never understand how blur don't like this tune, bang is possibly my favourite Blur tune
I don't need anyone... I just need Blur's music.
I was on a field trip in 94 with this in my cassette walkman out on a Long Island catholic retreat. Memories.
this need more recognition fr
they should have kept with that swingy sound longer... Leisure is a great album
+Nelson DaSilva Same feeling here, really underrated album.
Yeah they totally dis-own this period. Damon says this album is an awful mistake. They didnt even play "bang" when they played all the singles live in 1999!
They did, it just wasn't in the official DVD
Yeah...but all those bands had that kind of beat. Soup Dragons Charlatans etc this album rocks btw ...
Ever listened to the b-sides of the time? They did keep, for about 2 years.
First Blur album, so Madchester and brilliant
Gotta love London in the 90s!
they have an amazing guitar player
You mean Graham Coxon?
I swear I thought the lyric was "Sitting in an STD" 😂
They should stop hating this song. It's so good, part of their story and loved by many fans. One of the Leisure's best tracks along with "There's no other way", "She's so High" and "Sing". Graham's riff is sooo fine here!
such a stone roses feeling to it, nice tune.
Been a fan for years
So loose
And being a Manchester guy
There’s a undoubtably late 80’s Manchester sound to this
I love how the music video to this and Tomorrow Comes Today is so similar, very underrated Blur song if you ask me!
I was in my second year of high school when this came out and I got my driver’s license. I used to listen to this everyday on my way to school. I really wanted to drive around all day listening to the album.
This is London...
the magic in magic...
1:27 Graham Coxon ft. My bloody valentine
LOLLOLOLOLLOL SERIOUSLY? AM I THE ONLY WHO GOT THE JOKE???
And at 0:25 Graham coxon Ft. Bob Dylan
Justine Frischmann at 3:15.
hehe right
Pffft who CARES and Elastica was shit.
Pavita Khosa It's actually Elastica WERE shit not was shit.
Shemp Howard You've spelt 'bummed' wrong.

yeah i'm high - thanx
This videos are the proof that the 90s have better quality in terms of music and style than some of today's music
anyone replay at 2:06 ???
Yep
HE FAST
Tahta Rizky I think everyone did
hit the zoom
I love the guitar riffs there
Blur oh blur😍😍😍
Band yg sangat unik...
Seperti terdengar fals tapi harmoni nya dapet banget
AKHIRNYA NEMUIN KOMEN INDONESIA💜💜
happy anniversary ‘leisure’ !
I'm drunk and I don't know why I am here
Matt Ludlam best place man
Cheers mate
instincts
Respect
makes me feel nostalgic for indie clubs back in the 90s
I want to be 20 in London in 1991. Lets get this to 1 million.
this obsession with wanting to be us is creepy
Me too
@@moreodat479 What's so strange about wanting to experience a particular place at a particular time? Would you not have wanted to experience a live Beatles show if given the opportunity? Or witness the birth of Punk Rock in NYC/London in the late seventies? Sorry I'm from Oklahoma and am envious of areas of the world that are more cultured.
I was, literally. Saw Charlatans in London, and Blur in Ipswich. Tickets for Blur cost 12 quid at the time. Timeless and priceless.
same :(
2:11 love - forever changes in vinyl
Great song from an underrated album.
Aww they look so young
All their songs sound so nostalgic but like they’re not actually nostalgic to me idk how to explain
2:06 I love Damon dancing
Another world I haven't been to in a zillion years...my favorite song on this album...Sigh...made me feel so good about everything I felt in the world and myself...
Favorite song from Leisure. Great album
This music video is _beautiful._
Listening to this on New Years has been the best decision of my life.
I've known this song for so long and watched the music video God knows how many times and I just realized Justine is briefly in this.
I can't choose between blur and gorillaz... both great bands, both have Damon, both have yet to dissapoint. they are both different in the way where Blur is like that good old British Rock Band, like the Beatles, and Gorillaz are more of a studio side project that managed to release some great singles and many tracks underappreciated. tHis song is underappreciated. i personaly enjoying listening to "Popscene" and then "Fools day". Blurs grown up!!!! But always awsome!
why have a decision while you can stan both 🥰
the instrument is so good dude
Wow, 1 million views! I hadn't realised early blur was so popular. Most blur fans I knew weren't familiar with this or early classics such as 'I know'.
I really really love this song
You know, for a video recorded in 1991 this is sweet. Great track, but for me the video really adds to the tune. I'm pretty sure most fans of Blur would agree that only a few videos by the band rank higher than this, namely the likes of coffee & tv...Bang! is a great vid, and at the time those speeded up visual effects and panning camera angles were very much cutting edge stuff...and still looks pretty cool and relevant almost 30 years on!
Another great video and song; please give this one an HD upgrade soon!
I recently discovered this song and I've come back to it every morning since
Amo a Blur por que me hacen sentir algo que no se como explicar, una sensación de algunos momentos de los años 90s aunque no haya estado ahí :')
Siento lo mismo!
@@robsdianten1 chocalas!!! Verdad que trasmiten algo bien chido dificil de explicar ? 🌹💓
@@constanza4214 así mismo! Encima tienen varios estilos dentro del pop/rock para disfrutar
damons music seems to have this effect. encapsulates the sound or vibe of the time it was released.
Verdad que sí?
Pronto se convirtieron en mi segunda banda favorita
this music video encapsulates the feeling of this song perfectly
What Absolute Blandness
this song is so underrated
This and there's no other way my fav Blur songs.
Goddamn brilliant song. British pop-rock at its finest. Insanely catchy, just like "There's No Other Way".
gra is so ridiculously beautiful it's unacceptable
At 1:00 on the right-hand side, you can see Justine Frischmann opposite Alex and Damon
Leisure, by far my fave Blur's album .
Such a timeless tune

Waiting for an underground train
To rumble underneath my feet

Now I'll have to wait another week
