03.26 of Sunday July 2024. I finally found this song after almost 20 years. I was so young and I always had this melody stuck in my head throughout all my life, I had it in a CD and I was hearing this song on a stereo, but not being an english speaker (at least as a kid) i wasn’t able to know any of the words of the song. Today finally, thanks to the new google tool, i was able to sing the melody and I finally found it. Probably, the last song in my memory I was looking for, I feel so good.

@Lil'Blick Wit Da Stick Radiohead and Thom Yorke are way ahead of Blur or Damon Albarn when it comes to melancholia. Not to take anything away from Blur but they are not masters of it or anything remotely close to that in my opinion. They have few good tracks that are melancholic and yes Damon's voice has a sad tone and goes really well with it. Infact these are the only songs I like in Blur's catalog but saying Damon invented melancholia is ridiculous.
This was released when I was on a long road trip with my dad & family.. when he passed away 5 years ago, this was on non-stop repeat in my phone, car, room, everywhere.. miss u dad..
I lost my dad this January..I feel you man. If you're close to your family..especially your parents it hurts a lot after losing them. And I kept hearing a lot of songs I used to hear when he was alive. Miss my dad so much and my condolence to you.
seriously one of the best songs ive heard in a while. spotify algorithm helped me discover this. came straight here to see the video. i can't believe i hadn't heard it before. amazing song. holy
There's a lot of awesome music alive in the world right now but it does require some searching to unearth the precious most pieces Thank the mother of the webs for her grace
Especially when you realize the actual subtitles are "why am I on a multi billion dollar war machine - the price of which could feed millions of people"
God I love this. Damon's voice in this, the bass guitar, the music video in and of itself. Just beautiful. Makes me want to say F everything and just do what gives me joy.
So Melancholic just like feel good inc. Damon is such a dude. I cry every time it starts the bit with 'feel the sunshine on your face'. So much apathy in the world, so much infinite war and sadness. Beautiful and we should be grateful if the little things and aware of the hot mess we are all in too....love and peace ❤
"Out Of Time" Where's the love song to set us free? Too many people down Everything turning the wrong way 'round And I don't know what love would be But if we stop dreaming now Lord knows we'd never clear the clouds And you've been so busy lately That you haven't found the time To open up your mind And watch the world spinning Gently out of time Feel the sunshine on your face It's in a computer now Gone to the future way out in space And you've been so busy lately That you haven't found the time To open up your mind And watch the world spinning Gently out of time And you've been so busy lately That you haven't found the time To open up your mind And watch the world spinning Gently out of time Tell me I'm not dreaming But are we out of time? We're out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time Out of time
@@simsalonaut Hmm, difficult list. If we're just talking these style songs, then Think Tank will be the majority of these styled songs. That being said for Think Tank then: Good Song, Sweet Song, Ambulance, On the Way to the Club From other albums (13 and Blur will be closest to these styled songs): Coffee and Tv, 1992, You're so Great, Strange News from Another Star, Beetlebum

This video was shot on USS Abraham Lincoln CVN-72 during a 10month deployment.2002-2003 Imagine being on this deployment back then and recognizing these faces when finding this video close to 20 years later. The meloncholy faces at the beginning were likely faces made at hearing the news that our ship was to be extended in the gulf and heading into war. This song and video sums up the whole experience and this lovely airman gal did a nice job. Mission accomplished, thanks for the full court press keep smiling
I served on an aircraft carrier for six months in the Adriatic Sea, during the Bosnian war. My whole 5 years in the Navy was a gross waste of my life, that I look back on with shame. Like most of the people I met during that time, I was from a broken home, and thought I had no value and no place left to go. Its a very sobering thing, to realise that the people who die in war aren’t really mature adults with purpose, but mostly vulnerable young people, just searching for a home. The video brought back some very sad memories. Songs great though. 👍
@@tz7813 They've got their overfunded PR lobbies spreading the message that military service is some unique opportunity for you to live your life, but all it really is, is a cynical theft of youth.
I've always felt an affinity with this song. When i first heard it in 2005, i was living this life as an aircraft handler on a british carrier. My then wife was also in the navy and we were literally passing ships in the night. This video hit hard back then, and still does.
Erin Schloeffel ... you’re right. The pace of it, and the sun on the horizon. I think the girl is incredibly beautiful. What an occupation eh. Terrible job but someone’s got to do it.
It's not uncommon on a personal level, unfortunately, but it feels more like they are commenting on the US as a whole as alienated from the rest of the world
One of my all time favourite songs...this song resonates with most people...just wanting to live a happy existence...never stop dreaming people!...feel the sunshine...on your face... :)
I don't understand why people don't like Think Tank, I thought it was a nice change from their usual cheerful songs. Not that I don't like them, but still.
This is a very good song and the video just hit another level. Come from the family of officer from indonesian navy i thought maybe this is what my dad thought back in the day when he is on deployment. Sailors 👍🏻
Such a perfect and smooth song to listen to, either when you are broken-hearted or to express the need for reassurance in a relationship. Also loving the ethnic shades in the melody.
I remember the first time I heard this song, the first time I saw this music video. I was like 12 or 13 inside my makeshift room, we had a Sharp CATV which was a CRT. It was like 12mn or 1AM when this came on MTV (ch. 41) and oh boy. I had that indescribable mixed feeling of sadness and happiness. Sad because I thought the song tackles lonliness (due to the title, and music video subtitles towards the end,) and happy because I discovered something new, I felt alive and content for that short moment of my teenage life 😊 From then on I kept on humming the melody coz I didn't know any basic English back then 😅 had no idea of the lyrics, internet wasn't that popular in my area and I only got to hear this song when someone from the network "decided" to play it. Now almost 20 years later, I still consider it a gem and I still relate to this song and music video, it has a special place in my being, a part of my psyche. Kudos to the crew, people, minds behind this. Damon, your voice is haunting and I like it. Very much. Very much.
This was the song when I've seen the ocean for the first time in my life. It was also the first time I listened to Blur. Since this moment it became one of my favorite bands.
This was a discovery channel documentary. I saw it and then heard the song and then saw this video by blur and thought that putting the two together was genius. Love blur.
I read this, and the same situation happened to me, long distance, the love was pure but the distance was too much in this short life. And here we both are, having Blur get us through our problems.
This song become my memento, becoming my "rest area" in my life journey.. When its too overwhaleming, in my sadness, or in my happiness, and my sorrow...
I truly feel this is their best song in all honesty. It sends me into a trance-like state of mind every time I listen to it and literally sends a shiver down my spine.
Where's the love song? To set us free Too many people down Everything turning the wrong way around And I don't know what love will be But if we start dreaming now Lord knows we'll never leave the clouds [CHORUS:] And you've been so busy lately that you haven't found the time To open up your mind And watch the world spinning gently out of time Feel the sunshine on your face It's in a computer now Gone to the future, way out in space [REPEAT CHORUS (x2)] Tell me I'm not dreaming but are we out of time? (We're) out of time Out of time [x4]
This video is so very well done, makes me shed a tear still. Those subtitled lines paint a clear picture. Makes me respect military personnel, it's not easy. Even in peacetime. Damn...
i never gave blur much of a thought. not because i dislike them, but because i never heard any of their songs (other than singles on the radio). this song is really really good. i'm going to check more songs out.
Don't forget to obey to your your goverment. Because goverment is your god! They know better. And when they will locking you up for an year, just obey.
One of the surprising facts of the Blink 182 self-titled album (2003) was inspired by this album, Tom was very inspired by this album which made Blink 182 writing the lyrics more serious and focused on the 2003 Iraq War.
Guy Peled cause I doesn't go babbbbbbbbbbeeeeeeeeeeyy your gonna be the one that saaavees meeeeeeeeeeee. Basically it's not made for ur average music listener.
this was the most incredible music video i'd seen that year. i remembered seeing the documentary, and thought that was a particularly sad situation the grl was in, and as soon as i saw they'd used that doc in particularly that section i gave them a little round of applause on my own. i think i was in hmv at the time, people must've thought i was a nutter. perfect anti war message and footage right there, perfect!
Only heard this a couple of years ago never much of a blur fan but I rate this as a song that raises spirits and really makes you take a long hard look about what is going on all around you and think.
Love the mood this song evokes. Trying to hold on to whats important while being swept away in an inevitable and necessary tide of confusion and fear. Born at wrong time? Where is the love song? Damn right.
To me this song represents my problem with loneliness often times I feel so out of place in the world. The same people who will call me a friend one day are the same who will shun me the next. It leaves me in a position where I can't tell who's my real friend and who's not. It leaves me in a spot where I feel that I'm better off alone.
+paranoid android56 Blur are brilliant, one of my favourite bands ever!!, don't forget to listen their bsides!!amazing band, so underrated because a lot of people only know about the most famous tracks but they have hidden gems
This video was released by the time I was getting into Blur, and I still remember the pleasing feeling of seeing that face in the intro every time my music channel would be show it, which was very often. Good times.
@@Kelly14UK Sorry for late reply but damn that song is great, thanks for reminding me...but it makes me further wonder to what extent a band just kind of unconsciously channels another band via osmosis- or gets in a huddle with the producer and collectively decides: "Guys, let's sound like heads Radio and Portis on this one". Kind of jars with one's notions of originality, but it's no bad thing if it's executed as well as this.

03.26 of Sunday July 2024.
I finally found this song after almost 20 years.
I was so young and I always had this melody stuck in my head throughout all my life, I had it in a CD and I was hearing this song on a stereo, but not being an english speaker (at least as a kid) i wasn’t able to know any of the words of the song.
Today finally, thanks to the new google tool, i was able to sing the melody and I finally found it.
Probably, the last song in my memory I was looking for, I feel so good.
So good🤪
You are blessed
Most underrated Blur song. Its beautiful.
Beautiful certainly but not underrated. Not by those with taste 🙂
Not by me ❤
I think a better music video, and this song would be better regarded

Such a beautiful song. No-one does melancholia as well as Damon.
Natalia P. Lol.. what does that even mean
The new album Merrieland by The Good The Bad and The Queen would suggest otherwise
The Spirit Molecule His Mongolian throat-singing album was inspired 😀
Billy Corgan as well
@Lil'Blick Wit Da Stick Radiohead and Thom Yorke are way ahead of Blur or Damon Albarn when it comes to melancholia.

I have decided that this song is one of the best song in my life. The video clip, song and Arabic instruments are very beautiful
seriously one of the best songs ive heard in a while. spotify algorithm helped me discover this. came straight here to see the video. i can't believe i hadn't heard it before. amazing song. holy

@@Subtletext the song is out dated though. Isn’t it originally about the Iraq war or something like that?
@@ThaKid14 yeah - not sure, I wasn't being accurate, just giving my political opinion.
I cried when they played this in the show in Perú, it was so emotional. They are awesome!
U have to see this one Samira,the most beautiful i guess..enjoy it👍...ua-cam.com/video/kILeCIeDeJg/v-deo.html
I took my little boy to bed with this song.He‘s 19 now and still gets the chills when he listens to this beautiful song
Few songs are a perfect 10...this song cannot be improved upon, it's literally perfect...gorgeous.
Timothy Dannenhoffer maybe is too short... just saying haha
Euge Tipsarevic Wut.
Leettle Seester Maybe a critic for this song is it was made too short
Euge Tipsarevic How is nearly 4 minutes too short xD
If only graham played on this song, he would of added some great guitar work to it
God I love this. Damon's voice in this, the bass guitar, the music video in and of itself. Just beautiful. Makes me want to say F everything and just do what gives me joy.
The solo guitar and the sitar backsound.. give me the chills..
Not sitar... KANUN and TAMBUR
@@ocozel50 do you know what song it is?
I think these are moroccoan guitars/instruments, not sitar!
They recorded the album in Morocco...
@@sergiocriscuolo5319Es un muy buen tema.
One of my favourite songs of all time. So succinct and poignant. I love blur.
So Melancholic just like feel good inc. Damon is such a dude. I cry every time it starts the bit with 'feel the sunshine on your face'.
So much apathy in the world, so much infinite war and sadness. Beautiful and we should be grateful if the little things and aware of the hot mess we are all in too....love and peace ❤
I cries, This is so good, Lonely with melancholy vibe.
I believe this was David Bowie's favourite Blur song. Easy to see why
I think he said it was his favourite of this album
Interesting. It even sounds a bit like Bowie.
Mine to... good to know!
This is mine 😊
I'd have thought it would be MOR.
"Out Of Time"
Where's the love song to set us free?
Too many people down
Everything turning the wrong way 'round
And I don't know what love would be
But if we stop dreaming now
Lord knows we'd never clear the clouds
And you've been so busy lately
That you haven't found the time
To open up your mind
And watch the world spinning
Gently out of time
Feel the sunshine on your face
It's in a computer now
Gone to the future way out in space
And you've been so busy lately
That you haven't found the time
To open up your mind
And watch the world spinning
Gently out of time
And you've been so busy lately
That you haven't found the time
To open up your mind
And watch the world spinning
Gently out of time
Tell me I'm not dreaming
But are we out of time?
We're out of time
Out of time
Out of time
Out of time
Out of time
Thanks!!

@Random Music Review totally agree
What would be the other four? Just getting into Blur now.

I feel like this is he song where you can feel the transition from Blur to Gorillaz, in Damon's singing.

Surreal. Like every time. Blur is Blur.
I get very emotional and have a feeling akin to homesickness when i hear this.
Where you at Pat and where are you homesick for, i feel the same sometimes.
One of my all time favourite songs...this song resonates with most people...just wanting to live a happy existence...never stop dreaming people!...feel the sunshine...on your face... :)
2022 and sadly this song is still relevant with all the stuff happening in the world, we humans just can't evolve past war.
still the hell of a heartbreaking music video. all those tired ppl and this beautyful young lady stuck in her duties. sad.
I was about nine when I first heard of Blur. I'm 25 now and nothing still beats the 90s!!!
Nothing.
This song was released in 2003
I love how diverse blur music starts from leisure.👌🏻 they are so great, i can even listen to full album

Blur's best song and the video is so atmospheric and melancholic - simple stripped down production
Hi I recommend an indie song called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
I always have to play it more than once ! Because its magnificent
An everlasting hymn to love and communicate each other in the world, since 2003.
This was the song when I've seen the ocean for the first time in my life. It was also the first time I listened to Blur. Since this moment it became one of my favorite bands.
The song breaks me up every time, makee me miss someone i never had in my life, pure poetry 😢
This is the favourite song of my life. It feels as if I'm flying and I have a top view of the world. Just perfect!
This was a discovery channel documentary. I saw it and then heard the song and then saw this video by blur and thought that putting the two together was genius. Love blur.
❤
Eternal songwriting. Absolute perfection.
man, that first 45 seconds. what atmosphere. always brings back memories of me and my brother out boating out in the Mississippi bayous late at night
So smooth man love his voice in this track too .
the beginning of Damons second coming. amazing.
I read this, and the same situation happened to me, long distance, the love was pure but the distance was too much in this short life. And here we both are, having Blur get us through our problems.
It gives me a melanconic feeling but i cannot stop hearing this song It 's such beautiful
Genius , soul , meaning and depth
Definitivamente una de las mejores canciones de blur.
This song become my memento, becoming my "rest area" in my life journey..
When its too overwhaleming, in my sadness, or in my happiness, and my sorrow...
I truly feel this is their best song in all honesty. It sends me into a trance-like state of mind every time I listen to it and literally sends a shiver down my spine.
This is what sets Blur apart from many Bands , this and songs like Tender , absolute quality
This is the most underrated song ever. Literally perfect!
damn i’m just going through blurs music since i haven’t rlly listened to them all that much and now i’m crying
The perfect combination between great music and great lyrics!

And I don't know what love will be
But if we start dreaming now

Hi I recommend checking out an indie song called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
Fuori dal tempo...fuori da tutto...fuori da una tua vita...quando la malinconia è dentro di te...
Powerful song, and video, still, even now. Real artists are timeless.
No matter what time it is, this masterpiece will be running out of time around all the eras.
Simply Stunning! From the era without Graham! Mega production to a tea! Fair to say Damon has some serious talent.
i never gave blur much of a thought. not because i dislike them, but because i never heard any of their songs (other than singles on the radio). this song is really really good. i'm going to check more songs out.
Love this song SO much. It's beautifully dark.
Production is stellar. I adore the distant melodic wailing in the bg

this was the most incredible music video i'd seen that year. i remembered seeing the documentary, and thought that was a particularly sad situation the grl was in, and as soon as i saw they'd used that doc in particularly that section i gave them a little round of applause on my own. i think i was in hmv at the time, people must've thought i was a nutter. perfect anti war message and footage right there, perfect!
One of the most beautiful songs I' ve ever heard.. No words❤️
i am just crying...great band
Oasis : i'm outta time
Blur : Out of time
this song deserves far more credit
Only heard this a couple of years ago never much of a blur fan but I rate this as a song that raises spirits and really makes you take a long hard look about what is going on all around you and think.
I think it is a very spiritual song which grabs you in an understated way as opposed to say, Tender.
Love the mood this song evokes. Trying to hold on to whats important while being swept away in an inevitable and necessary tide of confusion and fear. Born at wrong time? Where is the love song? Damn right.
To me this song represents my problem with loneliness often times I feel so out of place in the world. The same people who will call me a friend one day are the same who will shun me the next. It leaves me in a position where I can't tell who's my real friend and who's not. It leaves me in a spot where I feel that I'm better off alone.
That woman’s face is now inseparable from this Blur track whenever I hear it, and it’s STILL in constant rotation.
Damon eres el más grande compositor de estos tiempos, cada día te vuelves insuperable
the oriental strings are a genius touch to set the mood
I'm new to blur and it only took about a week and I think it could be my new favourite band. The thing is, the same is happening with Gorillaz.
+paranoid android56 Blur are brilliant, one of my favourite bands ever!!, don't forget to listen their bsides!!amazing band, so underrated because a lot of people only know about the most famous tracks but they have hidden gems
+paranoid android56 easy fix: both include Damon Albarn as lead vocal, therefore he may as well be your new favourite singer
+Chirstina Silver hue hue hue no Thom Yorke is my favorite singer, but Damon Albarn is a close second.
yeah blur are just fantastic, but radiohead are radiohead. Kid a is a masterpiece man:D
Check out super furry animals, ul love them too
I periodically come here to hear this song. Don't know why, but there are moments when I need it.
Never more relevant than this day, even more so tomorrow but with more resonance. Love x
This video was released by the time I was getting into Blur, and I still remember the pleasing feeling of seeing that face in the intro every time my music channel would be show it, which was very often. Good times.
This song is that good that I've always thought it lasted for two / two and a half minutes but actually is 4 minutes long !
The last few seconds of this song are magic
Im a man and im not ashamed to say this tune always makes me cry
Suelo despertar por las mañanas con esta canción en la cabeza, la mejor manera de comenzar un día.
This is the most Radiohead I've ever known Blur.
I like a mental song called 1992 on 13.
Radiohead boring
@@Kelly14UK Sorry for late reply but damn that song is great, thanks for reminding me...but it makes me further wonder to what extent a band just kind of unconsciously channels another band via osmosis- or gets in a huddle with the producer and collectively decides: "Guys, let's sound like heads Radio and Portis on this one".
Kind of jars with one's notions of originality, but it's no bad thing if it's executed as well as this.
@@acc1541 each to their orangutan I guess
@@thetrickisirarelyrespond5945 indeed
One of Blurs best singles for sure and only the 3 in the band
0:25 - 0:30 best part of this music video :)
I was so happy
The guitar is so mellow, and so heartwarming and the lyrics are as beautiful as a dying rose 🥀
