Christ I LOVED it. Just seemed so fitting. The way Harry was bopping and grinning.. Adam's exhilarated face.. it was so haunting. I was absolutely beside myself when I came out of the cinema yesterday 🥴
Absolutely obsessed with this song after seeing the most haunting and moving film I’ve seen in years. Thank you All Of Us Strangers and your incredible style and performances.
Yeah, 97 was the best year for music we ever had - especially from Blur (but also many others including Depeche Mode). My top 3 Blur albums are this (97), Modern Life and Parklife.
If I had to say what the most Gorillaz blur song is, I'd have to say "Music is My Radar", partially because of the vocals, but also the general vibe, if that makes any sense.
@@gliderchucker9644 Had to google that one: promo for a best-of in 2000, so no wonder I didn't know it, as I don't tend to buy best-ofs, especially if I already have the studio albums. I think Think Tank and probably/possibly 13 had a few proto-Gorillaz tracks on them - though both of those are after Gorillaz had started. I do love this one for its Gorillaz vibe though. Been playing it in the car the last couple of days as we'd recently got hold of the reissue of Bustin' + Dronin' and that has three versions of it. Think I'd better play MiMR next though, thanks...
@@SeanSMST So glad I got to see Damon &Tony play together up close when he toured the second TG,TB&TQ album (& played both albums in full). Love that Tony tribute track on Song Machine too. Also obviously love all his work with Fela, naturally.
I think i've already commented in this video, but seriously, this song is very underrated :( i don't lie if i say that this is my favorite off the album... It's precious
13 is better, more adventurous and consistent, than all these albums, including even The Bends, which is a truly great guitar album. A shortlist of top 90s albums not featuring Bjork, DJ Shadow, Prodigy, Bone Machine, Aphex Twin, Beck, Stereolab or any hip hop is a joke.
The death of the party Came as no surprise Why did we bother? Should have stayed away Another night And I thought "Well, well" Go to another party and hang myself Gently on the shelf The death of the teenager Standing on his own Why did he bother? Should have slept alone Another night And I thought "Well, well" Go to another party and hang myself Gently on the shelf Another night And I thought "Well, well" Go to another party and hang myself Gently on the shelf
1998 wasn't too shabby either... Pulp's This Is Hardcore, Massive Attack's Mezzanine, Air's Moon Safari, Beck's Mutations, Boards of Canada's Music Has the Right to Children, etc...
ive first heard this song a couple of years ago because i accidentaly downloaded it, at the time i thought that it was an alright song. couple of years later i started to lisen to blur and n0w theyre my favourite band
@@tobyjackman3212 nah anthem would kinda be the song of a generation, like bittersweet symphony of the 90s. Banger just means a song is a hella good tune.
It was written between Leisure and Modern Life Is Rubbish. It sounds so unlike the other songs written during that time, even when just played with an acoustic guitar.
Had a small gathering in my apartment NYE in 2011 where I was playing some tunes. A girl I had just met that night asked if she could take over DJing. I respectfully declined and she got mad and the party went downhill. I played this song to close out as she left before midnight. Still my finest moment in my life.
I liked your comment. Is there anything more awkward in life than a someone asking the host of party, in the hosts own home, if they can take over the dj'ing. It's just rolling the dice with whatever relationship the person has with the host 😅
@@fincarosa it did, in fact, get more awkward. The girl tried to get us all to leave my apartment about 20 minutes before midnight to go to a club. When I said I would stay at my apartment she told my then girlfriend (current wife) that she should go to the club and find anyone other than me to make out with. That's when I started playing Death of a Party. As she and a few people were getting their coats on to leave. Still funny to me. Never saw that girl again
I was a massive fan of Blur back in the day, especially for Damon Albarn! (I still am a fan, but I love plenty of other music too). One thing that makes Blur's sound so unique is that, (as far as I'm aware), Damon Albarn is the only famous musician to play a home organ. This is one of their songs where that instrument is very prominent. Others include "Lot 105", "Fade Away" & "Theme From Retro". I used to have a home organ. Those were good instruments, but they took up so much space that very few people wanted them. The closest popular instrument to a home organ is farfisa organ.
@@ahmetemrearslan I love Muse. I've got most of their albums, (all up to Drones). I can't think of any of their songs that I've heard organ in though. 🤔 I know loads of musicians have used hammond organ. That's probably the most popular kind of organ.
This feels like the OP to a murder mystery show about someone who goes into public parties and always murders his victims by making it look like suicide and we view the show through his perspective as the murders feel like something normal to him to like he's done this several times before.
This song is another great example of why Blur were better than Oasis, a band who could never write, record or perform a song as 'delicate' and introverted as this needs to be to work.
The death of the party Came as no surprise Why did we bother Should have stayed away Another night And I thought well well Go to another party And hang myself Gently on the shelf The death of the teenager Standing on his own Why did he bother Should have slept alone Another night And I thought well well Go to another party And hang myself Gently on the shelf Another night And I thought well well Go to another party And hang myself Gently on the shelf Another night And I thought well well Go to another party And hang myself Another night And I thought well well Go to another party And hang myself
Que tiempos, estaba en el colegio cuando me compre este casette y no me arrepiento y esta canción es muy placentera, esos sonidos, es como un orgasmo para mi.
Dude yes on Zdaemon/skull tag. I just found this song after looking for it since 2007. I probably watched more than 500 random doom WAD soundtracks just to find this and then I find out it’s a blur song. Lmao
the scene which uses this in 'all of us strangers' may just be one of my favourites of the year
yes! saw a tweet that mentioned what song this was.
Just saw this movie today. Had to look up the song as soon as I got home.
Christ I LOVED it. Just seemed so fitting.
The way Harry was bopping and grinning.. Adam's exhilarated face.. it was so haunting.
I was absolutely beside myself when I came out of the cinema yesterday 🥴
I've just seen the film....devastatingly beautiful and this track is amazing in the film
I can't get over it! All day I been thinking about it. Just uploaded a review intro and couldn't stop crying! @@scotsean
This scene alone made all of us strangers one of my favs of 2023
I love it how people discover this song in 2024 because of All of us strangers. It is such a masterpiece, one of my Blur all time favourites
Absolutely obsessed with this song after seeing the most haunting and moving film I’ve seen in years. Thank you All Of Us Strangers and your incredible style and performances.
I had this album when I was in high school, but All of us strangers brought me back.
LOVED it!
💜
THIS IS WHY THIS ALBUM IS THE BEST OF THEM... Every song is a fucking masterpiece! 1997 was a great year, no doubt
Fr. I think 1997-2003 was their prime
Toda la razon amigo, Blur el mejor album junto a Parklife y 13
I prefer 13 and Think Tank, but they're all great.
Yeah, 97 was the best year for music we ever had - especially from Blur (but also many others including Depeche Mode). My top 3 Blur albums are this (97), Modern Life and Parklife.
@@jonconnington8987think tank is pretty amazing.. I probably put this in front but 13 is definitely my favourite
“And hang myself” 😧
“Gently on the shelf” 😌
Easily one of my favorite Blur songs. Also sounds like a precursor to early Gorillaz material!
this songs reminds me of O Green World, of gorillaz
If I had to say what the most Gorillaz blur song is, I'd have to say "Music is My Radar", partially because of the vocals, but also the general vibe, if that makes any sense.

@@ManWalksDogs Yeah it's a good tune. Damon sings about being battered by his favorite drummer, Tony Allen. Great

All of us strangers 💜
i Love that u commented 2 of my favorite things of all time, that Film and purple heart emoji.
I think i've already commented in this video, but seriously, this song is very underrated :( i don't lie if i say that this is my favorite off the album... It's precious
That doo doo doooliewoo is so sweet but also so anxious sounding. Great song, loved it immediately.
it's ciminally underrated
well said, and it is really the epoch of artists.
My fav are Beetlebum and Essex Dogs
Another party ..and hang myself
Masterpiece. One of their best songs.
Totally agree
Yes! Such an overlooked song. It's fantastic
si L lo dice es una deduccion correcta xD
L 😳☝️

I left the cinema devastated, I was about to fall down the stairs
I can’t even imagine seeing it in a theater. Luckily I was at home alone sobbing like it was my full time job.
@@mgregory9951 I am still in that tunnel
Same
Bad ass song...shrugging at the apocalypse...this is a top 3 album of the 90's for me along with Ok Computer and The Bends
Radiohead and Blur are two of the greatest ever !
Definitely fits those two
Good call
13 is better, more adventurous and consistent, than all these albums, including even The Bends, which is a truly great guitar album. A shortlist of top 90s albums not featuring Bjork, DJ Shadow, Prodigy, Bone Machine, Aphex Twin, Beck, Stereolab or any hip hop is a joke.
Try out 13, it's really a great album
The death of the party
Came as no surprise
Why did we bother?
Should have stayed away
Another night
And I thought "Well, well"
Go to another party and hang myself
Gently on the shelf
The death of the teenager
Standing on his own
Why did he bother?
Should have slept alone
Another night
And I thought "Well, well"
Go to another party and hang myself
Gently on the shelf
Another night
And I thought "Well, well"
Go to another party and hang myself
Gently on the shelf
1997 was a good year
For this I choose to be born
Glenn Zarmanov vintage year... blur.. U2. Pop . Oasis.. be here now radiohead.. ok computer primal Scream stuka!
Fav song when I was nine 💞
1998 wasn't too shabby either... Pulp's This Is Hardcore, Massive Attack's Mezzanine, Air's Moon Safari, Beck's Mutations, Boards of Canada's Music Has the Right to Children, etc...
Πέσαμε στην Β'. Αλλά Άρης είσαι δε μασάμε.
This has to be my favorite Blur song. I love the menacingly eerie tone of instrumentation. And Graham's guitar is so nasty in the best way.
👍The Guitar is Sinister and Insidious on this
The chorus is actually angelic. I’m ascending rn
I spent the whole 90s ignoring Blur and listening to Pulp. But this song. THIS song is so beautiful. Just perfect.
Harry and Adam kissing with that song on will always be on our mind.
All of us strangers.
?
@@alguien8335it’s a new film which has this song in it
Still love this band, all these years later. One of my most treasured CDs.
All of us Strangers brought me here. One of the best Movies in a Century!!
ive first heard this song a couple of years ago because i accidentaly downloaded it, at the time i thought that it was an alright song. couple of years later i started to lisen to blur and n0w theyre my favourite band
As the kids say nowadays, an absolute banger.
@Seb Web10 Woah there, my homeslice breadslice dawg, that's unradicool of you. Like, your really harshing my vibe, man. Most unepic.
@Yes No seems unnecessary. But banger still means sausage to me.
I think maybe people mean to say anthem.
But maybe I'm just an old git
@@tobyjackman3212 nah anthem would kinda be the song of a generation, like bittersweet symphony of the 90s. Banger just means a song is a hella good tune.
Every blur song got a UNIVERSE OF ITS OWN.
Just be carfeful not to fall too deep into the songs.
I came because Andrew & Paul "all of us strangers"
definitely my favourite off of this album
this song is so beautiful
Songs like these need to get back into the mainstream
Fr
NO!!
agreed
@@MiauFno gatekeeping in the Blur comments
An early song written during their Leisure period that was re-recorded for this album if I remember correctly.
wow, i can see that
It was written between Leisure and Modern Life Is Rubbish. It sounds so unlike the other songs written during that time, even when just played with an acoustic guitar.
No way!!
@@k-leb4671 yeah there's the Damon home demo recording from 1992, released in August 1996 with issue 4 of Blurb (the fan club magazine).
My favorite blur songs together with Song 2 and its energy!
I heard this in all of us strangers and omg i cried 😢
😫😫😫
Anyone else here because of the hauntingly cute scene in All of Us Strangers?
No not at all
Me. The 15 seconds where begins the refrain I go into ecstasy, watching Adam and Harry kissing each other, the lights, the colors. Was awesome.
The music just creates a perfect scene within the movie All of of Strangers. Flawless. All life is in there somehow.
Always loved this one. Brilliant, haunting and enslaving!
i miss these songs...such a good time the 90'!
Was a big raver in the '90s, but I loved Blur. Saw them live, everywhere from Brighton to Osaka.
that must have been amazing
I remember listening to this all day long some years ago, it is one of my favorites from this album
I love this song, one of the best I ever hear
Listening to this today is wow effect for me...This song is like old wine bb !
My fav blur songggg
Perfect song
All Of Us Strangers Club Scene 😍😢
It has a The Smiths vibe to it
Death of a Disco Dancer
vou dar like no seu comentário seu passa fome de merda ❤
I bought this when it first came out. It was one of my first ever cds. I'll never stop loving it.

favorite blur song & album!!
The best Blur song, used to listen to it max volume in a loop
Great sound mixing from the engineers.
The Self-titled album is truly a masterpiece, their best in my opinion
Blur my favourite band
Esta cancion la escuche cuando cumpli los 18 y definio la muerte de mi adolescencia. El disco homónimo de blur es una maravilla.
Gracias y felicitaciones de un fan de Blur de Inglaterra 😊
Yet another gem DAMON ALBARN was a part of
Although I’m still not fully through their whole catalog this song is possibly my favourite blur song along with Coffee and Tv…
really love this song...
Great album...all the way...through and through...just a great album...much love much respect...

This is my theme song,it plays when I walk into the room.
Listened to this on the way to my grandfathers funeral when I was 13 in 1997z
Death of party es el perfecto acompañante en esos momentos de dolor.
It reminds me Death of a disco dancer, by Smiths.. 😍
This feels like the OP to a murder mystery show about someone who goes into public parties and always murders his victims by making it look like suicide and we view the show through his perspective as the murders feel like something normal to him to like he's done this several times before.
Hypnotic......
still loving this song
Okay this is my favorite song by blur right now
Legit masterpiece forever
Tears
The song that got me into blur
This song gives me chills
I felt this so hard in 97
♡♡♡
This song needs moreeee
soooooo underrated
My favorite song of them...
This song is another great example of why Blur were better than Oasis, a band who could never write, record or perform a song as 'delicate' and introverted as this needs to be to work.
I LOVE this tune. I also love the re-mix version on their Bustin + Dronin album.
The death of the party
Came as no surprise
Why did we bother
Should have stayed away
Another night
And I thought well well
Go to another party
And hang myself
Gently on the shelf
The death of the teenager
Standing on his own
Why did he bother
Should have slept alone
Another night
And I thought well well
Go to another party
And hang myself
Gently on the shelf
Another night
And I thought well well
Go to another party
And hang myself
Gently on the shelf
Another night
And I thought well well
Go to another party
And hang myself
Another night
And I thought well well
Go to another party
And hang myself
One of the best songs.
Dark masterpiece
Otra canción para recordar momentos triste, gracias "All Of Us Strangers" por hacernos llegar esta hermosa melodía
I like this Song so much
Trip hop.
no it isn't
@@ilovethegirlsfat Yes, it is. For sure.
@@ilovethegirlsfat it does have some trip hop elements tbh
Esta canción merece aun más reconocimiento!❤ Tiene una letra muy profunda y el ritmo ❤
De las mejores 10 de blur para mi
mickey delsilencio garde le propre
If someday comes Trainspotting 3, this song should be in the soundtrack, no doubt🎶🎶🎶
omg why this song is not a single, my fav from this lp
Que tiempos, estaba en el colegio cuando me compre este casette y no me arrepiento y esta canción es muy placentera, esos sonidos, es como un orgasmo para mi.
This song is my whole life ✨
My friend said Oasis are Great...but Blur are brilliant... this is proof. They are without peers.
J'adore découvrir ce titre. L'atmosphère, les gars. Juste crade ce qu'il faut. Bravo.
2:20 love this part
dios que buen escenon se mandaron con esta cancion en all of us strangers ♥
Where have you been all of my life you beautiful song
Si, molto bella, fra le migliori che hanno fatto.
This song is used in a cool soundcloud mashup with Radiohead 's Climbing up the walls. Its called UK in '97
Interesting mash-up.
I’d literally be dead if it wasn’t for bands like Blur, Pulp, and Gorillaz.
masterpiece
... gently on the shelf.
I like this - very much, thank you.
I just love all of you here....drunk...not alone...
Friendly people are best best sort of drunks. Have a great day!
My favourite band since I was 11....and I'm 44(almost 45)
