cannot describe how deeply this song resonates... No specific lyrics that fit my life or anything... Just... something... it hits me deep every time... pure quality music...
Andrew Gourlay you hit the nail on the head there dude! Hope everyone is ok besides all the shite going around in the world today, as a race we need to stand together, not as countries but a FUCKING RACE and beat this nasty fucking virus. Stay safe peoples 🤘🏻
3:58 to the end........ In my book, that alone is one of the greatest pieces of music in history. It really takes you somewhere just listening to it. I have yet to get that feeling from another song, at least in the way I felt it.
Crazy to think it's been so long since I first discovered Blur. Was really into Gorillaz in like 2006 because of Demon Days. I played the mp3's a lot. But in 2013 in middle school is when I first discovered the Blur project, and it was honestly so amazing to me. I can relate to this one more as an adult because Ik what it's about now... Girls and Boys is also another fun one. They have songs for every mood.
I know it's 'Beetle' and not 'Beatle', but this sounds like it's just jumped out from the grooves of the 'White Album'. Regardless of that, great song.
[Verse 1] Beetlebum, what you done? She's a gun, now what you done, beetlebum? Get nothing done, you beetlebum Just get numb, now what you've done, beetlebum? [Chorus] And when she lets me slip away She turns me on and all my violence's gone Nothing is wrong I just slip away and I am gone Nothing is wrong, she turns me on I just slip away and I am gone [Verse 2] Beetlebum, because you're young She's a gun, now what you done, beetlebum? She'll suck your thumb, she'll make you come 'Cause she's your gun, now what you done, beetlebum? [Chorus] And when she lets me slip away She turns me on and all my violence's gone Nothing is wrong I just slip away and I am gone There's nothing wrong, she turns me on I just slip away and I am gone [Outro] He's on, he's on, he's on it He's on, he's on, he's on it He's on, he's on, he's on it He's on, he's on, he's on it He's on, he's on, he's on it He's on, he's on, he's on it He's on, he's on, he's on it He's on, he's on, he's on it
If I could describe this song in one word, it would be hypnotising! The lyrics and meaning of the song have nothing to do with my life, but I find it really calming so use this as a type of therapy I guess you could call it. I even had this song playing on repeat at college with my earphones in whenever I was near my crush as I always got nervous around her lol.
@@kyootie01 yes Ik, hence why I said the lyrics and meaning of the song have nothing to do with my life. But because this song is calming due to the fact it’s meant to kinda show how Damon felt when high on heroin, I therefore used to it to calm my nerves when near my crush lol
Best song about diamorphine n sounds perfect after chasing a beetle or two.. for another great tune about heroin check ' zoom by fat Larry's band. Or golden brown by the stranglers
MikeyC Beetle Bum (Pronoun)- someone who is basically a heroin bum. you praise it. its your god. You live for it. Its called a beetle because when you put it on the foil n run the smoke, it looks like a little beetle running down the foil.
Beetlebum and Cupid's Trick by Elliott Smith always shared some similarities and resemblance to me! Both Blur and Elliott Smith we're influenced by the Beatles by the way! Another crazy coincidence being, Blur's self-titled album in 1997 was released a few weeks before Elliott Smith released Either/Or!
@@thevarietybros2486 I also think it's kinda like Just, not just because the instruments drop out right before the chorus, but because they also have similar themes. Just is about self-destructive behavior, while this song is about mutually destructive behavior (specifically Damon and Justine's addiction to heroin).
+Craig Tucker Lol funny how you can't like both bands just because some fight they had like 20 years ago. Blur rocks and Oasis rocks, fucking stop they're not fighting anymore.
Judging by the comments I’d say more than 50% of the are millennial Gorrillaz fans who all of a sudden have become experts on Blur. And after reading your comments you lot definitely are not.😂

Andrew Gourlay I feel the same it's just beautiful
The chorus kills me every time :')
Same here mate. 2019 still touches me the same as in the 90" s.
The build up at the end gets me......amazing

This is one of my favourite songs of all time.
Hi are you still a real person these day
This song could go on for hours and I wouldn't care
Some guitar riff that love it
honestly
"She turn me on, all my violence is gone, Nothing is wrong"...Wow, great lyrics!!!
yup and he refers to heroin not a girl
@@davlor86 Ah like there she goes and under the bridge before him
great guitarist Graham Coxon
Graham Coxon and Jonny Greenwood could collaborate
something about this song is very calming
he way he sings it, like trying to describe perfectly what he lived during his time of heroin addiction
The absolute epitome of tragic beauty.
My favourite song ever. God knows how many times I have listened to it since buying both CD singles in January 1997.
Love that riff 10/10
3:58 to the end........ In my book, that alone is one of the greatest pieces of music in history. It really takes you somewhere just listening to it. I have yet to get that feeling from another song, at least in the way I felt it.
I agree. It's just hypnotizing.
Coxon's magic. The live version is even better!

Demon days
@@funkijunki3422 Right. Sorry autocorrected lol.
Surely the "he's on, he's on he's on it" line makes sense of it.
I know it's 'Beetle' and not 'Beatle', but this sounds like it's just jumped out from the grooves of the 'White Album'. Regardless of that, great song.
The flow of this song is hypnotic/ pure chill out song
[Verse 1]
Beetlebum, what you done?
She's a gun, now what you done, beetlebum?
Get nothing done, you beetlebum
Just get numb, now what you've done, beetlebum?
[Chorus]
And when she lets me slip away
She turns me on and all my violence's gone
Nothing is wrong
I just slip away and I am gone
Nothing is wrong, she turns me on
I just slip away and I am gone
[Verse 2]
Beetlebum, because you're young
She's a gun, now what you done, beetlebum?
She'll suck your thumb, she'll make you come
'Cause she's your gun, now what you done, beetlebum?
[Chorus]
And when she lets me slip away
She turns me on and all my violence's gone
Nothing is wrong
I just slip away and I am gone
There's nothing wrong, she turns me on
I just slip away and I am gone
[Outro]
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
He's on, he's on, he's on it
Wrong video, but I just heard that song
@@gatoxgamer6224 ???
I really like this. Just discovered them -- late to the party, but what a party
When this used to come on absolute radio 90's, this used to make me cry this to the end and the universal,I've got good coping skills now
just try the beetlebum once but never again, it's addictive as heck
from Venezuela-Blur esta entre las 3 MEJORES bandas Británicas de todos los tiempos!-
Jose Antonio Gonzalez si.... Blur es magnifico musica! Mi amore Blur! Musica es proficiente!!!!!!
i love this song soooooooo much
+N Chekal Radiohear Bear :)
Excelente disco!!👍🤘
first album I ever bought, this is the song I love the most on it...
Makes me wanna pop a perc 30 and smoke a few blunts of dank bud, sit on my back deck and feel all my worries disappear. Slip away

@@jdl.03 oh, ok
nice times listening it and everything was so greatfull, thx beacause now Im very greatfull too
Best song of Blur without any doubt
I missed 90s so much
I dress like I’m from the 90’s even though I grew up in the 2000’s. I have that late 90’ to very early 2000’s skater look.
Quon Snooder h
nasrul hadi blur sounds like the gorillaz. Another 90s early 2000s band
Same😭
I wasn't even born in the 90's and somehow I really miss it😂✌🏻
@@walleyworld4362 Damon Albarn of Blur is the co-creator and lead singer of Gorillaz
this song is one of the best by blur for sure...
best song ever 🙌❤️
Best song about diamorphine n sounds perfect after chasing a beetle or two.. for another great tune about heroin check ' zoom by fat Larry's band. Or golden brown by the stranglers
It is, but it's under the label of 'Post-Britpop'. Bands such as Coldplay, Arctic Monkeys, Stereophonics and Elbow.
Is it me or does it remind you of the other "scary-dark" rock songs that were also around in mid-to late 90s at the time?
Trey Myles
What? There's nothing scary or dark about this song.
Lisa Zoria it's about heroin. Heroin addiction is a scary thing for people to get into and to get out of.
Trey Myles
Oh I see. Yeah, I can see that. I was just going by the way it sounds. It's pretty relaxing to me.
Beetlebum,What you've done... damn... song about me
+Rado M Heroin?
Sad to hear it man, I hope youre off that shit now. My prayers go out to you
for years i always thought he said "he saw me" lmao
maybe 10 years ago?(even more) I still remember and now, I`m feel it.
Me encanta esta canción 🤓😞😃😎
It's beattleesk for sure but carries its own in the same respect
still listening.
whole beautiful song about heroin
thanks Heroin for inspiring Blur to make this song lol

i like this song , cool
i like this album,......
Chasing a beetle as this beautiful song caresses my ear drums
11 years ago, what legends are here in 2021??
but this song is almost thirty years old haha
He's on it he's on he's on he's on it
I came here cus i like gorillaz and now i love blur
OviLoop me too haha
Right on!
yesss
Same🤝
Huge oasis fan but this song is so fucking amazing
Sex Pistols sound on Bring It On Down was amazing.
Alto temazo
amazing song
Damn right up there with black sabbath and guns n roses for the greatest outro
Back in the 90s, I thought the lyrics go like this,
_"Beetlebum, what you've done? She's a girl, now what you've done, beetlebum?"_
The outro ♥
Sooo My crush recommended me this song
Yep, this song is about drugs.
ur crush has good taste of music
Amazing! 💗💗💗
MTV Europe murdered this back in the day
This song echoes my mood...
My generation tune
Chris Evans in the bottom right corner there
I think that was a joke that no one seemed to get.
Back in the 90s, I thought the lyrics go like this, “And she let me slip away. She turned me on. On my violence.”
“Beetlebum, what you’ve done, beetlebum?”
Beeeetle BUM!
Lovely song with not so lovely title
influenced by the Beatles....
some people know this band maybe? ;)
I never heard about 'em, but I'll take your suggestion and listen to it, someday.
Beatles yeah I love them! Freddie Jagger was a great songwriter!
No this song is about heroin I think
@@jotarokujojoester6294 he means the melody not the lyric
Beatlebun :-P
This is the heroin anthem
♥
Is the name a reference to the Beatles? cause that's the vibe I'm getting from this, more like something from Revolver.
Creo que prefiero más a Blur que a Gorillaz :3
clasic
Little BIG Town
drugs
Sounds like good ones too
Excuse me that he's a good singer and you can't see that, is your loss
yup all about smack burning on a foil , Btw heroin is a shit drug .. the downs to hard .. Better off with synthetic codeine 😂
The drugs DO work
And sex
what's a beetlebum?
metaphor for heroin because Daman Albarn (the singer) was conssuming that a lot.
Chasing the beetle, aka smoking heroin in tin foil
Il culo di uno scarafaggio
I know u r so wat am i
heroin
Nothing is wrong, i just slip away and i'm gone
Oh, come on, come on, come on Bill
Oh, come on, come on, come on Bill
Oh, come on, come on, come oonnn Biiill
He's on, he's on, he's on it
Riso, riso, risoles...
2021?
About Lennon,and his heroin habit
Damon* and his heroin habit
no. it's not Chris Evans, it's Dave Rowntree
Oivius Is influenced by Syd barret
Wow, I didn't know that!
this song for me its about heroin, beutiful 🖤
If oasis were the next Beatles, blur were the next vu
What a shitty position to place blur...
@@backwardinary lol
Alternate Title:
Song 1
Blur beat Oasis for The Beatles' sound here.
A point i've just made too. Classic '68 vibe going down here.
@@RomyIgoeX Minute i heard Beetlebum, i thought "White Album".
Woooooooooooooo
hola coto
I prefer Moby’s remix of this actually.
Wrote about his ex. So sad
Its actually about heroin lol
@@smash3401 yh taking heroin with his ex. Great song
3:58
I always thought they were slagging off oasis with this song...because they're bums who think they are The Beatles.
Kinda reminds me of Creep
Brooke Davis I thought the same thing. But I hear Just (also by Radiohead) in it as well.
@@thevarietybros2486 I also think it's kinda like Just, not just because the instruments drop out right before the chorus, but because they also have similar themes. Just is about self-destructive behavior, while this song is about mutually destructive behavior (specifically Damon and Justine's addiction to heroin).
Screw this "Oasis" band. In fact, NO CAPS FOR YOU! "oasis" :D
Dude Oasis rocks so is Blur so stop
+Craig Tucker Lol funny how you can't like both bands just because some fight they had like 20 years ago. Blur rocks and Oasis rocks, fucking stop they're not fighting anymore.
+Craig Tucker screw you lmao
ignorant AF. I'm sad I like the same music as someone of your intellect
Chill, dude. Oasis aren't my thing either but grow up
Who else came to blur from Gorillaz..?
I did.
Half of the current blur fans did ( including me )
I feel like I'm the only person who went to Gorillaz from Blur lmao
Judging by the comments I’d say more than 50% of the are millennial Gorrillaz fans who all of a sudden have become experts on Blur.
And after reading your comments you lot definitely are not.😂
This is about heroin? haha xd
yup, but they made the song to sound like if it was about a girl
Сашку люблю
ESTAFAAAA!!!
Bored band. Nothing to do in front Oasis.
