    You don’t have many goes at a first impression and Damon Albarn made sure we’d never forget him when he appeared on our screens for this video, bowl cut and all. The surreal clip made Blur one to watch in the indie scene and was just a taste of what was to come. A hook-laden indie sound, ready to take on the charts.

    Many music lovers were already well aware of Blur when they bounced up the charts in 1994. The band’s 1991 hit ‘There’s No Other Way’ had introduced Blur to the indie circles a while ago now. But when they released ‘Girls & Boys’ suddenly, it announced Albarn as a songwriter not to be missed. His scathing attack on the people who would end up pumpi...

    We couldn’t possibly leave this song out. Though it may have been maligned by many a Mancunian on the piss, awards show or otherwise, the song still remains a snapshot of ’90s culture. Albarn and the boys employed Quadropheniastar Phil Daniels to add some spoken word poetry to the song and with it, the track elevates to new levels.

    This was the song that put Blur at the top of the charts, swiping the crown from their villainous counterparts, Oasis. As ‘Roll With It’ and ‘Country House’ were pitted against one another. ‘Country House’, the ditty about Food Records boss Dave Balfe, would win out and it’s easy to see why.

    A lush and uplifting arrangement would be foreshadowing for Albarn’s later pursuits but it was somewhat novel when Blur went orchestral for their track, ‘The Universal’. Completed with a damn fine video, it was the Britpop at its finest.

    When the spoils of war were shared among the two arch-rivals in Britpop, Oasis and Blur the audience soon turned on the boys from Essex. The public had seemingly grown tired of the band’s bouncy behaviour. When they returned in 1997 they were equipped with some darker material that would shed new light on the band and Albarn. ‘Beetlebum’ may well b...

    It may be one of the darker moments on the band’s 13but ‘Tender’ also provides some of the most wholesome moments too. We’re talking the warm tomato soup on a cold day kind of wholesome. It begins with a death march and ends with the pearly gates, a triumph oh Blur’s later output.

    In 1998 Albarn and his flatmate Jamie Hewlett were determined to start something new. Hewlett was the artist for comic book Tank Girl and the duo were keen to integrate their respective fields. They created Gorillaz and with their smash hit debut ‘Clint Eastwood’, that possessed a bouncing rhythm and Del the Funky Homosapien’s amazing bars, announc...

    The Good The Bad And The Queen was a meeting of British musical royalty as Albarn teamed up with The Verve’s Simon Tong, Fela Kuti’s drummer Tony Allen and the legendary Paul Simonon of The Clash. The band churned out some filthy tracks in their time but none crash like this. A picture of London that feels all too real.

    Taken from his Everyday Robotsalbum, the track was written for a baby elephant that Albarn met the creature in Tanzania. Originally composed on a ukelele the song was intended for Albarn’s daughter but was selected for the album from scores of unsued songs, much to Albarn’s surprise.
