Let me put yall on a record
Millie jackson - caught up

My parents love it so it musta been big in england at some point

Concept album about 2 women caught between a man, she sings from both perspectives, amazing album i dont see talked about much

Soul

Wibbling rivalry still goes so hard

heard that

Have u heard the sequel

Still caught up

so how highly do yall ITT rate Blur in the grand scheme of things

@suzuki @demo @Elric @Fella

nah

Used to love them a lot more than i do now. Used to be a blur over oasis guy. (Probably because i am an upper middle class guy from london)

I still love parklife and country house and 13 is a good album, but i never really clicked with their "we wanna be weird and respected by american rock critics like radiohead phase" and im taking oasis, suede and many other bands over them these days

They were never better than in 94-96. I like plastic beach and demon days more than i like any blur record post country house tbh

good band but I find some of their songs kinda tedious. the only albums I listen to start to finish is 13 and sometimes their s/t

I think my fav songs by them are bugman, charmless man, the universal, death of a party, you’re so great

also I would put them fourth out of the big 4 of britpop

Their best songs to me are parklife, country house, universal, end of a century, this is a low, charmless man

So i like their lad era stuff is what im saying lol, and as damon said earlier this summer, "oasis won the battle the war etc"

They're pretty annoying and To The End is their only great song

I probably would too which is a crazy thing to me 10 years ago when they were easily my favorite, but i think now that was just tribalism

Im fully on oasis are the voice of the people one of the great rock bands of all time, perhaps the last great rock and rollers bandwagon

But i do love suede a lot

2020s have turned out to be the 2nd best time ever to be a britpop fan

Came out in '74 been in rotation all year

Theres a sequel

interesting

guess they didnt nail the Kinks sons thing for you

My dad used to say get beyonce and jennifer hudson make a broadway musical of caught up by millie jackson you would print money wonder why they havent done it

Idk if u heard this, similar vibe

Now that i brought up suede, i do think they peaked with animal nitrate and i like debut and coming up more than dog man star and think generally their best form is populist pub singalongs

Unrelated, im reading this reynolds book about post punk and gave bollocks the first serious listen since i was like 13

CLASSIC FIVE STAR ALBUM SO GOOD HOLY F*** WOW HOLDS UP ROCKS HARD I FEEL BAD HOW LITTLE ITS BEEN IN MY LIFE

IM SO LAAAAAAAZZZZYYY, I CANT EVER BE BOTHERED
