Please don't ever leave us Blur. What an album, what a band.
Blur are in another planet then Oasis
please stop comparing oasis and blur.
they have nothing in common since two and a half decade. there are 3 or 4 good songs of oasis, but they never made an album as great as 13, the modern life is rubbish or even this one.
Not too shabby Mano
yikes! 🤣
agreed
"Now you can't play to every taste" Damon is so honest, so raw and such a creative mastermind genius.
Thanks Blur for putting the lyrics to the songs. Makes the experience to listen to it more rich.
especially for non native speakers, also I loved the visualizer. They dont need a sofisticated video their music is enough and lyrics help us to sing out loud ;)
Damon has broken up with his long term partnership at Xmas....
Confused on the lyric, plane tree, I thought would have been plain tree. What is a plane tree? A tree of planes?
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.
💯💯💯
a
Songs give me goosebumps all the time, guess i'm a slut, but i'm obsessed with this one and this whole album.
The vocal production and performance are achingly beautiful and impressive technically. My current favorite song in the world
My instant favourite. It’s brilliantly beautiful, uplifting melodic pop, although with very good, poignant lyrics.
And the end of the song, when it all lifts and goes up a key (time stamp 3:34) is actually some of the the best Blur… ever, for a long time, whichever.
Yep best Blur song in a long time, one of their best.
Couldn’t agree more, absolutely fantastic!!
It's majestic
I usually hate when songs do that but this is awesome...
He hasn't lost any of his voice! Amazing
But have lost the feeling that he thought he'd never lose
*It is barbaric.*
That blur drops a new album means everything to me
the arpegio from graham plus damons voice, alex cutting bass and dave calm beat ufff perfection
The Narcissist and this are the best songs on this album in my opinion but its great we get to enjoy REAL music in this day and age 🎶✌️
This is one of the best Blur Songs of all time. instant Classic for me
That song is a timeless masterpiece at least in my opinion.
Fabulous song on a first class written album. Waited too long for the Blur boys to make this comeback and boy, they have not disappointed. Damon Albarn is a genius and a credit to the music industry and the whole group is a brotherhood
Simultaneously makes me happy and cry every time, no matter where I am. Masterpiece.
The most beautiful song in whole album! Thank you.
I'm currently living this song. Twenty years and now no home, no wife, no dog. In an apartment alone with boxes and not even a bowl or cup to piss in. It wasn't incidental... which is why we both are still close. Rather, it was incremental and it signified how we both have changed and grown emotionally yet also, so sadly, apart. There is nowhere to go and no one to blame and the most important thing I can do is to continue to be a kind and loving man. Even though it all hurts so goddamn bad. It is truly barbaric. So phucking barbaric.
Thats it, im playing the album nonstop for the next few months because i love it 💕
Same here!
Amen😊
Im glad that Blur is back. I was 15 when I became fan and now 20 years later went to concert again and became fan again :)
Genius from start to finish, so much sunny space in the music, so much resignation & sadness in the words.
My love for blur started in 1990 seeing them at Sheffield octagon and 4 more times over the year's..this is a stunning album..iam 52 and still a fan..Good work gents I Salute 🫡 you
Awesome memories! I am 40. Saw Blur in 1997 in Denver at the Ogden Theater. Tiny venue. Great show!! Opened with Beetlebum.
Another fantastic track on a brilliant Album! Lovely to have Blur back. Thank You!
I'll bow to you guys.
Had to listen to it a couple more times after the first... My mind, took me to The Smiths, Joy Division, The Cure, Crowded House, Bowie and a bit of Duran Duran.
It's great when a song, in this god forsaken moment, takes you through these great musical memories.
Thank you all.
I was reminded of 'Uncertain Smile' and 'This Is the Day', both by The The.
I got more Joy Division/Cure vibes, the chorus on the bass does it for me.
the progression change on 3:35.... unnghhh. so good.
Damon is a master of contrasting hopeless lyrics with upbeat melodies
"The falling doves of lovers' vows" is perfect
You ain’t wrong Damon is an absolute genius!
Couldn't have put it better myself! Brilliant.
I'd say a modern songwriter who does that well is Matty Healy. Looking For Somebody To Love, Its not living, Ugh, very well done.
It sucks because hopeless Lyrics are cringe, the instrumentals are great and hopefull. Like stop being so sad moron, write inspiring stuff
Man...Blur will never cease to be anything short of genius...Thank you Blur for coming back again, this album so far sounds phenomenal...
Oh thank you Blur! This came at the perfect time in my life. I needed this so badly. What an exceptional album and gorgeous voice..
Bloody love this. Was never a massive Blur fan.....until years later. Can't get enough!!
“I have lost the feeling that I thought I’d never lose.” Oof. I love it.
This is my personal favourite on the Album😊
Same!
Instant!
I think it’s probably the only real contender as a 3rd single.
@@blurkid33 true
Definitely the most obvious choice!
I know this 2023 is still goin' on, but I've already my song of the year.. No contest. Barbaric makes me feel better, makes me feel happy despite the lyrics. We haven't lost that feeling, though. Thank you Blur
So, so good. Not just this song but the whole record. Listened to the whole of it twice last night. I’m already in love with it.
Congrats!I can't stop playing this song in my head and on my guitar!!!!!Really nice guys!!!
"We have lost the feeling that we thought we'd never lose" 💔
One of the best tracks in the album...good job!
Barbaric Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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
It is barbaric
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
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
Highlight of the album & 100% resonate with the lyrics right now!
Almost reluctant to make that statement, but this might be Blur's best album. Thirty two years in, that's saying something, isn't it? It's saying something.
No tengo dudas de que está entre sus mejores discos! Uno de los mejores regresos de la música!!!!
I'm going through an epic break up currently (13 years) and this song is really helping me during my saddest times
One of my favorite groups. Damon is one of my, all time,favorite musicians/artists/poets/philosophers ❤Bless you, hon.
The blur on their best! Uncroyable. Pungent!
I was ready to sing "This is the day" and it suddenly morphed into something completely different!
Thanks for playing this in Lucca, I was crying ❤
This song gets better with each listen 💙
It does!
After learning hes just split from his 25 year relationship this song hurts so bad
It is not the 25 years. I lost the feeling that I thought I'd never lose in just 1 year... It is just the feeling...
I have found, the sound that I thought that I'd never hear
Questa è voce e questa è musica libera! Sogno!
This masterpiece makes me lose the feelings I thought I'd never lose for everything that went before. On repeat ❤
Words really cant do justice to just how beautiful this song is.
Another belting track, so fresh it takes me back to the 90s
Heartbreak lyrics to an upbeat tune. Once again Blur deliver the goods.
This is what I’ve been waiting for from them. So pretty I cried.
Pure genius, blur at their best, long may they continue to give us such fantastic meaningful music, you guys are quite simply fabulous x
As soon as I hear this song became one of my favorites ❤❤❤ looking forward to hear it live in Mexico 🇲🇽🤘
Hey do you mind me asking, how did Blur get so big in Mexico? I've noticed a lot of comments from Latinos on several videos and I'm genuinely curious how a little British rock band got so big in a country that speaks a different language. Love from the UK!
@@Dmitrikrotchlikmyov
That's a good question that I would also be very interested in. And that's also the case in Asia and Sweden. Blur are huge there
@@sylkewatter1170 maybe it's just like a Rammstein thing where people appreciate the music without having to understand the lyrics. Gotta be a reason it's so big in certain countries though 🤔
@@Dmitrikrotchlikmyov funny enough, I also like Rammstein. Recently travelled from Mexico to see them in their European tour, Is amazing to see them live here and even though we don't know or understand their lyrics you can hear everyone in their concerts singing out loud.
@@Lucerna982 that's awesome! I've always seen them when they come over to England. Their live performances are absolutely amazing
La voce si Damon in questa traccia mi fa ringiovanire di vent’anni
"This song should have been the first single of the album, the lyrics fully embrace the loss of mutual love, a beautiful explanation of what happens to us without being able to understand it."
This is one hell of a song!
This song makes me quite emotional , it's amazing
Gracias Blur por este disco!! Y por venir a la Argentina!!
Claro que siiii, espero poder verlos ahí:D
Gorgeous! Oh my heart!!! Thank You ❤
Fantastic stuff from one of the best bands ever..luvit❤🎉
This song is just a little peace off art
this song sounds like heaven but hurt like hell
Can’t BELIEVE I’m hearing new BLUR songs in 2023!!!! Massive longevity. Legends. Many more years of epic tunes to us all. Love to Damian and the band. 🤘🏼✨🙌🏻 #blurforever
Catchy tune! Love the melody and the whole song ❤
Best song of 2023 absolute banger
Remember when people were discussing who was better oasis or blur. I feel sad for the people who thought wrongly oasis were better.
Blur couldn't top Morning Glory, that's why Oasis won. Only facts.
I feel sad for the people who always feel the need to compare one band to another.
Mate, for every 1 decent blur song, oasis have at least 20 decent songs, u obvs weren't around in the 90s, 2 quality bands btw but don't be daft to ever think blur were ever on the level of oasis, only a fucking total fool would come out with that pish, also I do love this particular blur song but took them about 20 years to release this while oasis have broken up and Liam and noel, by just doing their solo stuff after oasis prob have a better back catalogue than blur, I've seen oasis many times and blur zero times, says it all yet have bought a few blur albums only to be disappointed as have about 2 or 3 good songs on them yet every oasis single has 3 good songs never mind their albums with a lot more, stupid comment mate imo but each to their own I suppose 👍
Blur never could top Morning Glory
Although Blur has evolved better and has stayed longer at the top
Two great bands, love both
That's why I am checking Blur out again due to the Oasis getting back together. Blur were always better, there is something different with Blur, some of their tracks are insanely good, like the universal, just crazy
Blur's ninth studio album, "The Ballad of Darren," has finally arrived, marking a triumphant return for one of the most influential and critically acclaimed bands of the last 30 years.
Produced by James Ford and recorded at Studio 13 in London and Devon, the album represents a departure from the band's previous work, which often featured a playful and ironic tone. "The Ballad of Darren" is a more mature and introspective offering, delving into themes of loss, regret, and the relentless passage of time.
The album kicks off with its titular track, a poignant and soulful ballad that grapples with the profound impact of a father's passing. It serves as a moving tribute to a dearly departed loved one.
Following this is "The Sound of the World Falling Apart," a more upbeat composition that tackles the challenges of modern life. It serves as a reminder that even amid chaos, there remains beauty to be discovered.
Throughout the album, a series of songs explore a wide range of emotions, including love, loss, regret, and hope. Each composition is meticulously crafted and skillfully performed, showcasing the band's continued musical growth.
The album concludes with "The Ballad of Damon," a reflective piece that contemplates the band's own career. It serves as a poignant reminder of Blur's enduring impact on British music and provides a fitting close to a powerful album. "The Ballad of Darren" stands as a well-crafted and thought-provoking album from one of the foremost bands in contemporary music. It is an essential listen for Blur enthusiasts and anyone who appreciates skillfully composed and intellectually engaging pop music.

Creo que es mi canción favorita de este gran disco. La vuelta de Blur fue un regalo increíble. No me canso de escuchar este disco!!!!
God of melody.
Favorite song on the album. in my top 10 blur songs
this song reminds me of being on holiday with my parents and grandparents because this song was on the radio all the time
And when the strings kick in at the outro ... dats whare the drama heart explodes .. 3:35
Exactly this with the strings.
And the song on repeat and crying until the pain is forgotten...
Maybe their best album ever.
This album is a masterpiece
Just haven’t stopped listening… please come to Australia guys!
I don't have anything new to add 3 months and 400 comments later, but I still need to be another voice saying how amazing this song is. Hitting a little close to home this week, but I've been happy to hear it on my local radio the past few months. Be well!
Superb Thanks !!!!!!!
Can't get this song out of my head a true master piece !!! Got me through a dark patch I'm my life !!!!
Albuquerque! The King of Rock 'n' Roll!
Beautiful blur
Blur is my favorite band
Después de leer un post donde damon hablaba sobre BLUR y como descansarán otra vez un largó tiempo, me puso algo triste ya que es una banda que conozco hace poco (dos años). Pero me siento feliz de al menos poder decir que estuve viva cuando sacaron este álbum y precisamente está es mi canción favorita. Los quiero mucho BLUR, gracias por formar parte de mi adolescencia y a seguir disfrutando de sus proyectos personales ❤.
Whole album is just beautiful and I adore listening to your familiar voice. Ive missed it ! Russian strings and Goodbye Albert make me emotional x
Another moment of genius from Damon
You go deep in such a playful way: beautiful contrast 🫶
My favorit song from this Album ❤❤
All the UK BANDS !
Thank you 😊
Lil blur but Im seeing the light from the Narcissist !
Thanks for this great song.
this might sound an exaggeration but that guitar mix is something i will remember when i no longer exist in this reality
A song about midlife crises never sound so fine, holy shit.
Remembering VERY VERY MUCH "THE CHRISTIANS"! Was astonished to hearing at the end of this song that it's Blur. Remembers so much the wonderful sound of The Christians in the 80s/90s.
Wtf
My favourite track on this stunning album. Upbeat music with miserable lyrics. Perfect ❤
Love it. Cant wait for the album ❤
Blur back to their brilliant best 👌
Brilliant to have u back ..
This is my favourite song on their new album
I’d say this is the most catchiest song on the album and my original favourite (find it similar to my fav blur song coffee and tv).. after many listens of the album I feel like every song is as great or at least close to..
I my self heard this beautiful tune off the AD. But what a beautiful tune very addictive
Such a soft sounding song yet so meaningful.
Been waiting for this for years... Amazing
'kin love it! 💥
This man is a genuis.
