Seeing it in color really changes the tone of the music video. The original feels so somber and lost, like clinging to life when one is suicidal, but in color it’s like seeing the world as it really is. A beautiful place where happiness can be found around us
The original version looked like it was trying to be from about 1963, and the only anachronisms were two background cars and that Sony TV showing the album title.
@@tubisi search "blur - for tomorrow". there still exists a terrible quality upload from the band themselves. or if you prefer high definition videos, try making this video black and white
Realmente está canción tiene algo que levanta el espíritu. No puedo explicarlo pero siento como si pudiera sumergirme en algo mayor, es como flotar sobre un océano infinito de luz, de Alegría, de gozo... Sentirse cada poro de la piel trascendiendo... 🪽💓🤗🌟✨
“Beautiful” except for the fact they literally cut the top and bottom parts of the video off to force it to be a wider screen. So dumb that they didn’t seem to give a fk about the value of the work of the original film crew.

Happy 30th birthday Modern Life Is Rubbish! I brought the cassette tape 30 years ago in the summer of 93 after watching blur play live at Reading and the album became one of the most important records of my life. Roll on Wembley!
Im a 36 year old who loved Blur growing up in Scotland. My first ever concert was Blur live at the SECC. I now work in the Ambulance Service in England. I brought in 2023 on duty and we drove our ambulance to the top of Primrose Hill and watched the fireworks with hundreds of Londoners... and in the same year Blur release this... what a time to be a Blur fan.
I'm a huge film digital restoration nerd as well as a Blur fan so this is incredible to see. The upgrade in quality from the old video master to the original film is one of the most dramatic I've ever seen
@@lady_agitha5976 i am happy they did it, but…why ruin the original director’s framing? It’s bizarre to me. If something was filmed to be framed on old TV’s leave it that way, otherwise you completely devalue the expertise of the film crew. So weird.
The colouring completely changes the feel of the video. I don't know about anyone else, but it makes it easier for me to follow what's going on in the video. And the upgrade in clarity/sharpness... it's immense
Is criminal how an album released before I was born makes me feel so nostalgic. Happy 30 years Modern life is rubbish 🥳. Yes, you were (and still are) so true on that statement.
I hear you. I'm a 65-year old in Florida who just heard this for the first time, and it makes me nostalgic for a time and place I have never come close to experiencing. But my ancestors were Brits, so maybe that counts...
In my top 3 of bands to ever exist, simply never gets boring listening to Blur - love them from Leisure to now at 51 years old and still reminiscing about my student daze.
Un cuore grande , grande come un mondo dove trovi una città...il suo nome è Londra dove milioni di cuori hanno casa e c'è quello che cerchi per te... tanta magia , quella che solo un amore può dare... grazie Blur...
Blur’s music videos are so inspirational to me. They’re some of the best in the game! As an artist and musician myself, these videos embody what I want to create for my band!
Absolutely amazing! Your music will heal us for generations to come. My husband is nine years older than me, and we are both sooo excited, eagerly awaiting your show in Colombia. He's in tears due to the nostalgia, and so am I, because my dream has come true. We will love you forever, thank you for coming back ☄️🪐🩷
❤ I'm 8 years old, hearing this song, and falling in love with Damon and his music. 30 years on... I'm still in love with him and his music. The man has never let me down ❤
The happiest 4:18 of my life whenever things get a little fraught out there. 30 years ago I bought this in woolworths as a single, saw then play an acoustic version at XFM festival in Finsbury park and today on the other side of the world, I'm still waiting 'For Tomorrow'.....

Blur writes great albums that have singles instead of great singles on albums. Their interests and direction has changed from time to time, but they are the most consistent band I’ve ever heard. I first started listening just before the s/t was released, so mid 90’s? I didn’t go back to previous records before The Great Escape until around the lull between 13 and Think Tank. I was shocked that even the early albums (like modern life and leisure) were so coherent beginning to end. I struggle to think of another band with so many albums with ZERO tracks that I skip. Pure talent and smarts. Artists should study Blur’s consistency and thoughtfulness in album pacing, track order, and what doesn’t belong on a record. I have gushed enough. Thanks, Blur.
nice. . I'm glad they kept the blur genre. . they are not afraid of losing their fans, because they maintain a blur song genre. . I'm a blur fan in '90. . xoxo
Nice restoration of the video, the colors pop out more. It now also serves as a time capsule of what London looked like in 1993. Iconic song album, it's my favorite of theirs besides Blur and 13.
It’s so weird feeling to watch something colourful that all the life with you and what was always gray. What expected to be tomorrow finally became today 😊
The song that really got me into Blur back in 1993, my first job delivery driving Modern Life Is Rubbish album pumping on the tape player in the van ;)
I am forever 17 years of age when I listen to MLIR, I just wish I’d aged as well. Ace to see the boys are back playing those songs we all love so much along with new stuff too. 🙏🏻 WEMBLEY 👊👊👊👊❤️
I think that this didn't only made my day happier, but my whole life! Thank you so much blur for repropose such a banger of a song with this remastered and colored version
modern life is the firs talbum i buy with my money (work) in school, this is just great, love the photography of the video, for me this is the ultimate "blur anthem"
What a time to be a blur fan
My twelve years of interest have finally paid off 😂

Great song 👍
It's not underrated. It's considered one of the best

best crafted is sayin a lot cuz they got like 8 a those but is it probably the most cohesive and consistent sound-wise
Modern life is still rubbish, great band 👍
Damn can't believe they went back in time to film this with color
Imagine being a girl in '93 and having the honor of rolling around in Damon's embrace on Primrose Hill.
Agree
My god
Who is his co-star in the video?
Wow.... I imagine that too

Ambulance by Blur should be your song

Hey you should look up a band called The Doublejumps if you like Blur
Another upgrade that comes to mind is the one done for "D'you know what I mean?"by Oasis. Check it out if you haven't seen it yet
@@etmafra That video restoration is amazing! Looks like it's been filmed with today's technology.
I've almost cried watching this... It's a different time in my life since I first knew this band. It literally changed my life in so many ways.
Takes me back to being a music obsessed teenager in the 1990s. Love this track so much.
Hey you should look up a band called The Doublejumps if you like Blur
I was in my late-20's when this came out.
what would make you stop being music obsessed?
absolutely beautiful restoration, makes the song even more poignant somehow seeing all those places and faces in colour, thank you 🥹
Except they cropped off the top and bottom to make it fit youtube’s wider proportions so now it looks incredibly cramped vertically ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@pyenapple Original aspect ratio should have been preserved. This should be a general basic rule.
@@debranchelowtone exactly!! I’m baffled as to why they threw that out the window here. It literally looks vertically cramped now.
The original greyscale version still hits different. But it's nice to see this again in full color 🙏🙏🥺❣️❣️
Plus this version was cropped vertically so there’s actually LESS video happening visually here in each frame than the original
Que lindo verlo el video asi ❤
@@pyenapple sure about that?
@@pyenappleYep, there's less image at the top and bottom, but there's also more image at the sides, compare it with the OG b&w video

Let's hold each other tightly like it's 1993
That's the best advice. World gone totally mad in 30 years... I wish we could be as careless now.
Hasn’t it just, oh how it felt like yesterday watching that star shaped video as a youngen.
Omg yes look how far we’ve all come 😅
We’re all old :(

Wow. Utterly beautiful. Never get bored of this song and the colour video is stunning.
This music makes me nostalgic for England. Even though I live in Florida and haven't actually been there...
30 years of Modern Life Is Rubbish. I'm nearly 20 and only discovered this album in 2019, and I'm so glad that I did. 😍
I discovered this album in the same year XD
This makes me happy and sad - for memories of the 1990s and how much the world has changed in the last 31 years.
1962- 93 was a bigger change
Brilliant to see this in full, vibrant colour. A true classic, tomorrow is endless in its possibilities.
There’s something so beautiful about this video that makes me nostalgic for experiences I’ve never had ❤
Love being a young blur fan
One of the greatest bands ever ❤
I love the black and white in the original, but it is so nice to finally see the colours!!

Un cuore grande , grande come un mondo dove trovi una città...il suo nome è Londra dove milioni di cuori hanno casa e c'è quello che cerchi per te...

When they do this track live its just phenomenal. So amazing to see this again in this colour version...

[LYRICS]
He's a twentieth century boy
With his hands on the rails
Trying not to be sick again
And holding on for tomorrow
London ice cracks on a seamless line
He's hanging on for dear life
And so we hold each other tightly
And hold on for tomorrow
Singing la, la la l-la, la, la la, l-la l-la la-la-la
La, la la l-la, la, la la, l-la l-la la-la-la
La, la la l-la, la, la la, l-la l-la la-la-la
Holding on for tomorrow
She's a twentieth century girl
With her hands on the wheel
Trying not to make you sick again
Seeing what she can borrow
London's so nice back in your seamless rhymes
But we're lost on the West way
So we hold each other tightly
And we can wait until tomorrow
Singing la, la la l-la, la, la la, l-la l-la la-la-la
La, la la l-la, la, la la, l-la l-la la-la-la
La, la la l-la, la, la la, l-la l-la la-la-la
Holding on for tomorrow
We're trying not to be sick again
And holding on for tomorrow
She's a twentieth century girl
Holding on for dear life
And so we hold each other tightly
And hold on for tomorrow
Singing la, la la l-la, la, la la, l-la l-la la-la-la
La, la la l-la, la, la la, l-la l-la la-la-la
La, la la l-la, la, la la, l-la l-la la-la-la
Holding on for tomorrow
Jim stops and gets out of the car
Goes to a house in Emperor's Gate
Through the door and to his room, and then he puts the TV on
Turns it off and makes some tea
Says modern life is rubbish
I'm holding on for tomorrow
Then Susan comes into the room
She's a naughty girl with a lovely smile
Says, "let's take a drive to Primrose Hill
It's windy there, and the view's so nice"
London ice can freeze your toes, like anyone, I suppose
You're holding on for tomorrow
Thank you
To see a 30 year old song in Colour AND in 4K for the first time ever is music Heritage..Perfection!
one of my favorites songs of them! such a melancholic lyrics
