23. Pressure On Julian

 

http://baker-street.net/archives/blur.jpg

 

From: Modern Life Is Rubbish (Album)

 

No Video :(

 

This one is from the under-appreciated Modern Life Is Rubbish album. A rather heavy rock tune, it is typical of early Blur. Poor Julian!

i only have the singles from this album :o, is it worth a buy??

When I was revising for my 1st year Uni exams, Modern Life Is Rubbish kept me sane! This is the one that reminds me most of that time. This is a very well written song, imo, and pretty reflective. A classic of its period.

This is Blur's first ever single (and 16 years old!!). Its a product of its time, and is very baggy mad-chester and trippy. Many happy memories!

Another one from MLIR, Star Shaped is a live favourite of Blur's (an early live video was called Star Shaped). This is ratehr similar to Pressure On Julian, but slighly chirpier!

Kept off the top of the charts by Britney, this rather lovely little gospel tune is the highlight of the 13 album.

Well, Blur have had so many good songs, they cant all do well! This is personal to me, and ive been a fan since the early 90s :D
