    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.

      Blur has the highest amount of overlooked songs in music history probably. There are atleast 50 bangers that are completely forgotten about, where if another band would have written one of these songs it would have been their biggest hit song

      the comparision was only fabricated by media and tabloids (and Blur's management afaik) to sell more albums with the battle... Blur is pop, art rock, Oasis is clearly more classic rock and roll/blues oriented. anyone with ears would say that. Britpop is Ocean Colour Scene, Boo Radleys..

    LYRICS:
    [Verse 1]
    Bow bells say goodbye to the last train
    Over the river, they all go again
    Out into leafy nowhere
    Hope someone's waiting out there for them
    Cabbie has his mind on a fare to the sun
    He works nights but it's not much fun
    Picks up the London yo-yo's
    All on their own down Soho, take me home
    [Chorus]
    Other people wouldn't like to hear you
    If you said that these are the best days of our lives
    Other people turn around and laugh at you
    If you said that these are the best days of our lives
    [Verse 2]
    Trellick Tower's been calling
    I know she'll leave me in the morning
    In hotel cells, listening to dial tones
    Remote controls and cable moans
    In his drink, he's talking
    Gets disconnected sleepwalking back home
    [Chorus]
    Other people wouldn't like to hear you
    If you said that these are the best days of our lives
    Other people turn around and laugh at you
    If you said that these are the best days of our lives
    Of our lives
    [Instrumental break]
    [Chorus]
    Other people wouldn't like to hear you
    If you said that these are the best days of our lives
    Other people turn around and laugh at you
    If you said that these are the best days of our lives
    Other people break into a cold sweat
    If you said that these are the best days of their lives
    And other people turn around and laugh at you
    If you said that these are the best days of our lives
    Of our lives

    this song is an absolute masterpiece. it’s so beautiful. grahams backing vocals and his guitar verses are absolutely incredible and soothing. he is a genius. this song is very special to me like beetlebum and you’re so great because it gives the same sorta feeling (nostalgia for some reason along with sadness and happiness for some reason). when i hear this i think back to like when blur was young making all these songs in the studio and stuff. but now they don’t do that anymore. perhaps that’s why it’s sad to me. anyways blur is one of the best things to come into my life and i want to thank them for just simply existing. #Blurforever

But this song is so beautiful the mention of tech, the overwhelming knowledge that I am in fact living the BEST days of my life this far. Its also the realization of needing to be in the present to experience them. Sung so beautiful by baby boy albarn ugh

    Bow bells say goodbye to the last train
    교회 종소리가 막차를 향해 작별인사하고
    Over the river they all go again
    강을 넘어 다시 모두 떠나네
    Out into leafy nowhere
    어디도 아닌 저 밖 풀이 무성한 곳
    Hope someone's waiting out there for them
    누군가 그곳에서 자신을 기다리길 바라면서
    Cabbie has his mind on a fare to the sun
    택시운전수는 태양까지의 요금을 생각해
    He works nights but it's not much fun
    그는 밤까지 일하지만 보람은 없어
    Picks up the London yo-yos
    런던에서 행인을 태우고서
    All on their own down in SoHo
    모두들 각각 소호까지 내려가
    Take me home
    집으로 데려다줘
    Other people wouldn't like to hear you
    다른 사람들은 듣고 싶어하지 않을거야
    If you said
    네가 말하길
    that these are the best days of our lives
    이게 우리의 최고의 순간이라고 한다면
    And other people'd turn around and laugh at you
    그리고 다른 사람들은 돌아서서 널 비웃겠지
    Trellick Tower's been calling
    트렐릭 타워가 깨어나고 있어
    I know she'll leave me in the morning
    아침이면 그녀는 날 떠나겠지
    In hotel cells listening to dial tones
    호텔방에서 전화발신음을 들으며
    Remote controls and cable moans
    리모컨과 케이블이 그르렁거리고
    In his drink he's talking
    취중인 남자는 계속 말하고 있어
    Gets disconnected sleepwalking back home
    끊어진 전화에 몽유병이 걸린듯 집으로 돌아가
    Other people'd break into a cold sweat
    다른 사람들은 식은땀을 흘릴거야
    If you said
    만일 네가
    that these are the best days of their lives
    이게 그들의 인생 최고의 순간이라 말한다면
