Damon couldn't even look at the audience much during the song. He was truly hurting a lot, knowing that he played a huge part in the falling out with Graham. Damon just couldn't deal with all of that. I am just happy that he and Graham buried the hatchet and agreed that it was alright.
Oh God I cried a little right after I read your comment because I remember Graham has been his friend ever since they were 12, they have been through so much together and that is the cutest friendship I have ever seen.
His performance is just so emotional it makes it even more amazing. I really thought he was gonna cry.... 2:48 to 2:50 It sorta looks like Dave is wiping a tear away D:
In a way it was a good thing that Graham left Blur: Damon never would have composed this song and the rest of Think Tank otherwise. But boy am I glad Blur reunited and are recording new material!
What am I to do Someone here is really unhappy Put myself on the line It seems I never got through to you So I wean myself off slowly [Verse] I'm a darkened soul My street's all pop music and gold Our lives are on TV You switch off and try to sleep People get so lonely I believe, I believe, I believe Everything's out to sea I believe, I believe, I believe I believe that is the way it should be I hope you feel the same Everyone is dying Stop crying now here comes the sun I didn't mean to hurt you no no no It takes time to see what you have done So I wean myself off slowly I believe, I believe, I believe Love is the only one I deceive, I deceive, I deceive I deceive cos' I'm not that strong Hope you feel the same [Outro] And now it seems that we're falling apart But I hope I see the good in you come back again I just believed in you
Every time I listen to this song, it touches me so much especially after hearing the story behind. Such a precious and special friendship do they have that I really envy.
@@meh2521 (morning glory) “I wrote this looking at him on the wall. It was inspired by Graham and missing him." Damon wrote it while in a waiting room, he saw a picture of Graham, after he walked out on blur, on the front cover of Dazed and Confused.
It's absolutely not gonna happen, but 50 days from now in São Paulo, Brazil, when I see them live for the first time, if Damon sings this onstage to Graham... I think I'm gonna tear up like a little girl.
As beautiful as this song is--it may be my favorite Blur song, to be honest--I doubt we'll ever hear it live again. Because I doubt there will ever be another Blur gig without Graham Coxon and since this song is a fairly clear comment on the dire state of Damon and Graham's relationship in 2002/3, I doubt either will want to go "there" on stage.
Every morning when I leave to go and meet my friend for collage I always play this song, I can’t not it’s like I feel wrong. Sometimes I’ll cry sometimes I’ll smile. But I always listen to it.
Yestarday I broke up with my girlfriend. It wasn't easy at all. Before, this song was for me only some kind good piece of sound. Now it looks like it is my best compagnion these days. "And now, now, it seems that we're falling apart But I hope I see the good in you..."
This is a month old so you might not care anymore but to explain: Before recording the album graham went to rehab to treat his alcoholism at the time for a month. After he came back they started recording but he was acting strange/rude towards the band. After a couple of days he got told by the producer that he shouldn’t come to the studio. That alongside the raising tensions in the band, graham took that as a sign to leave the band

you can tell his voice is shaky too, like hes about to cry :(
Too right
I realize I am kinda randomly asking but does anyone know a good place to watch new movies online?
@Zachary Dariel i would suggest flixzone. You can find it on google :)
@@blu00 looks like he is crying too
Yes, Damon wrote this song after Graham left. So I can imagine how sentimental he was, everytime he's up on stage and sang this song.
The best song on Think Tank
badhead agree
And then “good song”
This is probably my favorite Blur song.
Any notice that his voice is getting better and more consistant over time?
this song touches me so much every time I listen to it..
Yes right

Damon's voice age like wine. An expensive one, fer sure.
I can't hear this without crying. I simply can't. Beautiful.
I fucking love this song, damon your ballads are exceptional

No, think tank would've been a better album. The best song there, battery in your leg, is the only one with Graham.
he express a lot of feeling when he sings people gets so lonely... great song
One of the best Blur songs.
the best blur song
What am I to do
Someone here is really unhappy
Put myself on the line
It seems I never got through to you
So I wean myself off slowly
[Verse]
I'm a darkened soul
My street's all pop music and gold
Our lives are on TV
You switch off and try to sleep
People get so lonely
I believe, I believe, I believe
Everything's out to sea
I believe, I believe, I believe
I believe that is the way it should be
I hope you feel the same
Everyone is dying
Stop crying now here comes the sun
I didn't mean to hurt you no no no
It takes time to see what you have done
So I wean myself off slowly
I believe, I believe, I believe
Love is the only one
I deceive, I deceive, I deceive
I deceive cos' I'm not that strong
Hope you feel the same
[Outro]
And now it seems that we're falling apart
But I hope I see the good in you come back again
I just believed in you

What's the story?

Incredibly vocal performance - beautiful melody and sentiment

Minha música favorita do Blur, fico com vontade de chorar toda vez.
Obrigada por tudo Coffee Prince, você me deu um presente.
i can't believe how beautiful damon's voice is. and this is in denmark... damn, if only i had been older than 11 in 2003 O_o
i think that the little smile and the "rub in the face to dry the tears" is beautiful
What moment ?
grahammmmm.... T.T

loving the george harrison / john lennon references!
could you explain pls
'I didn't mean to hurt you' John Lenno 'Jealous Guy'lyric and 'Here comes the sun,George lyric
the whole song has a lennon vibe, love it
Damn this is such a beautiful song. Think Tank is full of wonderful gems.
makes me wanna weep so bad....

Beautifull song

Es cerrar los ojos, disfrutar o sufrir la melodía y dedicarla.

Wow! So good! Love this song. Blur is amazing live!
I always wondered what this song would be like live, its amazing

Awesome song!
Very beautiful performance indeed! =o)

this song and out of time are the ones of think tank
Yestarday I broke up with my girlfriend. It wasn't easy at all. Before, this song was for me only some kind good piece of sound. Now it looks like it is my best compagnion these days.
"And now, now, it seems that we're falling apart

looove.
I just know that this song is tribute to George Harrison, Damon's fave Beatles member.
great song, its about graham I suppose
george harrison was my fave beatle!!!! :)
🥺🥺💔
nangis
This was the only one time on stage?
@kenbing88 no! Graham had already left the band by then!
sweeeeet^.^
Which interview please?
Yes, both are great but the demo is better.
wevegotafileonyou yeah i agree
@n00dlesbff314 I agree. What's your point?
ok??
que tiene que ver una cosa con otra?
Can someone explain what happened with graham back then why did he left ??
This is a month old so you might not care anymore but to explain: Before recording the album graham went to rehab to treat his alcoholism at the time for a month.

@@annisa412 does damon blame himself in a way? ( for what happened)
꽤 충격적임..
I love this song so much, but it does make slme sad.
On another note, I always think Damon looks like the spawn of Helen Mirren and Oliver Reed.
its 2d from gorillaz
