    About Blur:
    Blur were formed in 1989 by Damon Albarn, Graham Coxon, Alex James and Dave Rowntree and signed with Food/EMI the same year. Announcing their arrival with debut album Leisure in 1991, Blur continued to revolutionise the sound of English popular music with second release Modern Life Is Rubbish (1993). Five successive UK #1 albums followed - with Parklife (1994) and The Great Escape (1995) helping to propel the band to mass popularity in the UK and beyond. The eponymous Blur was released in 1997 and seventh album Think Tank (2003) was Blur’s first as a three-piece after the temporary departure of founding guitarist Graham Coxon.
    Twenty one years after the release of their debut album, 2012 saw Blur 21: The Box, the band's body of work compiled and gathered together into one box. Their most recent release as a four-piece, the critically acclaimed chart-topping album The Magic Whip (2015), started life in Hong Kong when the band had an unexpected break in touring in May 2013.

    I remember being 9 years old when this song came on MTV in 1999. Me and my parents sat in the front room admiring this video. Mum says 'is there anyway we can watch this again? Its amazingly cute!'
    That was impossible back then. I innocently explained that we'd just have to wait for MTV to play it again.
    Here I am over twenty years later and 30 years old watching it easily and for free on youtube. Parents split up years ago, but these old memories linger. Funny how things change.
    Great track.

Could you imagine what it would be like to listen to Nevermind or In Utero for the first time again right now?

    Do you feel like a chain store?
    Practically floored
    One of many zeros
    Kicked around, bored
    Your ears are full but you're empty
    Holding out your heart
    To people who never really
    Care how you are
    So give me coffee and TV, peacefully
    I've seen so much, I'm going blind
    And I'm brain-dead virtually
    Sociability
    Is hard enough for me
    Take me away from this big, bad world
    And agree to marry me
    So we can start over again
    Do you go to the country?
    It isn't very far
    There's people there who will hurt you
    'Cause of who you are
    Your ears are full of their language
    There's wisdom there you're sure
    'Til the words start slurring
    And you can't find the door
    So give me coffee and TV, peacefully
    I've seen so much, I'm going blind
    And I'm brain-dead virtually
    Sociability
    Is hard enough for me
    Take me away from this big bad world
    And agree to marry me
    So we can start over again
    So give me coffee and TV, peacefully
    I've seen so much, I'm going blind
    And I'm brain-dead virtually
    Sociability
    Is hard enough for me
    Take me away from this big bad world
    And agree to marry me
    So we can start over again

    I've always loved Graham's guitar solos in this. The song constantly walks a tightrope of some really dark stuff about alcoholism and the hope of defeating it. It feels like, behind the jangly rhythm guitars, the major chords (when they come), the twinkly keyboard, and the mantra of "we can start over again", the solos are the broken self he wants to leave behind and which never really disappear. I don't think it ever feels fully resolved which side is going to come out on top.

    Me encanta la metáfora del vídeo con el trasfondo de la música.
    De seguro varios ya lo comentaron pero como no veo que tal vez haya sido muy reciente, lo haré ésta vez:
    A finales de los años 90, Graham (el guitarrista de la banda y vocalista principal en esta canción) escribió la letra como un manifesto de la crisis de ansiedad, depresión y alcoholismo por la que estaba pasando debido a la fama.
    Él siempre fue el más tímido e introvertido de los cuatro y estar en una las bandas más famosas de UK le daba bastante ansiedad social. Artísticamente hablando, cómo guitarrista creativo que es, ya no se sentía cómodo con la música esencialmente comercial que la banda estaba haciendo. Más aún durante la batalla del britpop (Blur vs. Oasis) que los medios británicos crearon. Ambas bandas lanzaron el sencillo de sus respectivos álbumes en la misma fecha. Blur ganó en esa ocasión llegando al primer lugar con récord en ventas. Pero ya ni eso animaba a Graham, quien contó en una entrevista hace años que intentó suicidarse tirándose del 5to piso del hotel en donde estaban festejando la victoria pero Damon (el vocalista y líder) logró impedirlo.
    Todo ese estancamiento creativo y la presión social lo hicieron refugiarse en el alcohol, que para finales de los 90 ya no pudo controlar.
    Por eso es que en este vídeo Milky sería la esencia de Graham tratando de sobrevivir en un mundo cruel. Lo irónico es que pocos años después el video cobraría más sentido ya que, pensando en su hija recién nacida, entraría en rehabilitación y dejaría la banda (como se ve hacia finales del vídeo) para luego emprender su carrera solista experimentando con los estilos que a él le gusta.
    Lo bueno es que años después regresó a la banda sobrio (o al menos sabiendo controlar su consumo) y con tratamiento terapéutico para poder controlar las crisis de ansiedad que hasta ahora a sus 53 años aún padece :)

      Era un tema de finales de los 90 creo, mirá vos... la fama mata a muchos, como dicen los yankes, too much, too soon... eso es. Pero si llegó a los 50 y pico, bien por él. Me maté de la risa viendo el video... imagino, que la parte de la cajita de leche, "chica linda" habrá sido alguna drogada que se suicidó o fue aplastada por la sociedad... o sacada de sus sueños... flop!!

      Lo curioso del vídeo es que se volvió profético cuando Graham quizo volver a la banda tiempo después no lo dejaron y terminó siendo echado. Algo parecido con la versión UK de "Live Forever" de Oasis, en la que entierran al baterista.

    This track was and still is part of my lifes soundtrack from the age 16 when it came out and even now almost 25 years on and it's still one of the best tracks of my lifetime. Over time the meaning I draw from it has evolved and changed and today the song shatters my heart every time I hear it but even with a broken heart, I can't help but smile.
    Graham Coxon, you're a bloody legend for that track!

    I stg, the comments just talk about the milk carton, but c’mon, this was a really good fucking song. People always overlook just how amazing it was. I’m pretty sure this was the first song I listened to by blur and ever since I was hooked. I just love them, milk carton or no milk carton.
