Damon: pours his soul into the song.
Alex: *chilling and smoking on the couch*
Never change, Alex James.

[@Koragh_]

this band aged like fine wine , thank you for everything music is ageless but growing up with bands you see now in a more mature phase really hits harder

[@eugenecooper6395]

Alex just chilling on a couch is my vibe

[@jurajovmail]

When the ballad comes for you, it comes like me. Love this album opening song. Wait, love Blur for years ❤

[@g.centineo]

One of the best album ever made, maybe the best of Blur. Great work.

[@judegraham463]

I won't hear another word about Damon not being able to sing to save his life. Damon has a unique and wonderful voice. He is one of the best singers of the past 50 years, if not the best singer from the past 50-60 years.

[@Jude-penny]

100 💯

[@mikeadams7904]

He nails the ballads live I find

[@KellySmithDavis]

This has rapidly become my favorite song. ❤ What a magnificent live performance!

[@azrinbinyunosyunos7707]

[@MrMonikerjay]

You guys need to put the Wembley shows out and this show out as a bonus on a permanent stream or dvd. This show was soooo amazing!

[@animalnitrate]

I really hope they do add this to the wembley shows dvd (if they do a dvd) I was there and would love to be able to own a copy

[@alistairproductions]

Better than the album version. I get really into the live

[@Swuigs]

just looked into my life
And all I saw was that you're not coming back
Oh, can't you see when the ballad comes for you
It comes like me?
But I won't be afraid
I can't seem to find you in this midnight parade
I know it's all true
When the ballad comes for me, it comes like you
Up close
I fell in love with you (I met you at an early show)
You fall and
I'll fall along with you (we travelled 'round the world together)
I just looked out to the point
Where the words, they are hitting me
In a full-on assault
Oh, can't you see when the ballad comes for you
It comes like me?
Well, I know I can't change the times
I know I'm already breaking when I look into your eyes
Oh, can't you see when the ballad comes for you
It comes like me?
Up close
I fell in love with you (I met you an early show)
You fall
I'll fall along with you (we travelled 'round the world together)

[@lbukem4259]
