Leisure

Product Information

She's So High: Overall this is a really great song, but the lyrics are a little underwhelming compared to some of their later songs. Pretty much just the same chorus sung over and over again. But what a great guitar solo by Graham Coxon. Sounds like something straight out of "I'm Only Sleeping" by the Beatles. Great bassline too. a b "Blur | Full Official Chart History | Official Charts Company". Official Charts Company . Retrieved 27 July 2016. Larkin, Colin (2011).

I still like Leisure though and kept up with Blur when they were incredibly unfashionable, buying the Popscene 12" and Modern Life Is Rubbish LP on day of release. The progression was incredible.

Archived from the original on 25 April 2009 . Retrieved 24 June 2013.A journey through the "Leisure" vinyl album by Blur is like traversing a musical terrain where each turn unveils a new and exciting facet of the Britpop realm. Whether through its paradoxically provocative title or its bold infusion of varied sonic influences, "Leisure" promises an audio experience that challenges yet satisfies, ultimately enriching your connection with Blur’s profound musical legacy. User Comment There's No Other Way: Love this one. Clearly the best song from "Leisure", and it fits right in with their Britpop material in my opinion. Overall this song handles the baggy scene much better than "She's So High" imo, and it has a killer guitar riff by Graham. The lyrics are also very indicative of their later stuff and have improved a lot since their first single. And Damon's hair in that video is amazing.

Daniel, Kilkelly (12 May 2007). "Digital Spy – Albarn cusses own albums". Digital Spy . Retrieved 11 May 2007. Formed in London in the late 1980s, Blur have been through a number of stylistic changes during their musical journey. Initially inspired by the Stone Roses and the so-called Madchester scene, a shift towards a revitalised 'classic' British guitar pop saw them achieve huge success in the early to mid-1990s. Parklife (1994) put them in the vanguard of Britpop, battling for supremacy with Oasis. Leisure" is an intriguingly deceptive title that sparks a fascinating contrast against the album’s pulsating and vibrant sound. Its name hints at restfulness and relaxation, yet the music unleashes a landscape replete with driving rhythms, vibrant melodies, and a delightful textural complexity. This paradoxical presentation offers a thrilling twist that heightens the intriguing aura of the album. Britpop Boons: The Birth of an Icon Damon Albarn - Guitar Center Sessions (Full Interview)".
