Go Blur!!!

[AndrewT]

Pulp FTW

[WYSINWYG]

Damon Albarn - I would. 

Wonder which songs were about her...Most of 13 I guess. Reunion album mostly about Claw prolly.

I think there's lots of good music from the noughties (can someone think up a better sounding name please?), it's just not necessarily so commercially available, I'm sure there are many reasons. Luckily we have the Internet to make it easier to find new music (last.fm ftmfw!)

Loved blur, didn't really like Oasis as much. I remember Radiohead put on an awesome show at the Ice Arena in notts, which really surprised me as every other gig i've seen there has had terrible acoustics!

Saw Damon Albarn singing a Scott Walker song last night at the Barbican.

He gave it a good go but he has such a weak voice.

[sledge13]

Well I saw them loads in the 90s and when he sings Blur songs he is excellent. Obv not his style singing Mr Walker.

2003 and quality imo. The Universal.

[AndrewT]

Actually I thought The Universal was the exact point that the scope of Blur's songs became such that they outgrew Damon's voice. A technically better singer would make The Universal a better song.

[sledge13]

Ok...as long as its not Jarvis Cocker singing em!

He had the right idea last night - he did a Scott Walker song but did it in his usual half-talking kind of way.

Katie Melua?

I much prefer this original to the Oasis cover, they really mangled it

FYP

comparing blur to oasis is like comparing bobby davro to owen wilson

Kings of Leon win the noughties hands down

Damon Albarn is ridiculously talented and inventive
Noel and Liam are just a pair of mouthy twats, they had a couple of decent songs but have no imagination and should just give up

Have to totally agree with that

Can't say I've ever listened to a Kings of Leon song
