Blur - The Universal Only years after the release of The Great Escape did I understand what this gem was about: The Universal is a drug that in a distant future will suddenly make everyone happy, despite the crap society in which they live. The video is heavily and obviously influenced by two films that I'll let you discover if you haven’t seen them yet, and the music: it probably represents one of the peaks of their third phase (era Parklife/The Great Escape) #blur30
 
In Walks Barbarella

My favorite from the album, it concludes the review of my 4 beloved mechanical metalworkers.

If I Ain't Got You
A quote from a user who has since disappeared that illustrates my conception of music: "not the mass as a guarantee of quality (a common counterargument about DeB), but the mass WITH a quality product as a guarantee of genius. Reaching the niche with quality or the mass with garbage is (in both cases) extremely easier." As for the music that abroad or with the general public is exchanged for tuna cans, I don't know what to do with it (just as I feel about the other extreme, which I call the music of record companies like Nek, Pausini, etc.). I will continue in the coming days with D'Angelo, Miguel, Sno-opp, John Legend, etc.

50 Cent - If I Can't
This record has now become a cult classic, even though it was trashed back in the day 🤣🤣🤣
Anyway, cheesy or not, this song makes you want to groove.

Blur - Country House A few months after the release of Parklife, Blur were already starting to record the new album that would come out a year later: prolific, to say the least. If Parklife was their first number 1 album, Country House is their first number 1 single. And it's the song through which I got to know them, via this video, so I feel particularly attached to it. It's the opening track of an album, The Great Escape, which has nothing to envy from its predecessor; on the contrary, I believe it contains even higher peaks than Parklife: it's a sort of gallery of horrors, with often unsettling characters, still a mirror of a society that the four are capturing with ferocity, through unforgettable sarcasm and satire. While in Parklife the atmosphere seemed generally more serene, here a deep melancholy is often felt. #blur30

Sorry. I had a private conversation with our friend @[Dislocation]. He had a fairly serious health issue, but now he is on the road to recovery. I won't go into details, of course. It will be up to him to share those if and when he wants to. And that's it...
