Blur: Good Song

Blur: Good Song Out now Despite naming this song to preclude negative reviews, you can’t not like this. It’s very simple. A gentle, shuffling beat, with the rudimentary acoustic guitars, floating over the top of a bassline that sounds like ‘Walk on the Wild Side’s much happier brother. A few keyboards come in later, but really, this goes to show that Blur’s new, shambling persona is to be welcomed with open arms. The voice is the voice of a man who’s been out on the razz, and woken up with no real memories of the night before, just a general feeling of calm contentment. It’s certainly worth a few quid.ARCHIVE: 0th Week MT2003
