BlueAngel Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 "Pop Scene" One of the best, most underrated Blur songs: hard-rocking but catchy with a great hook and Damon's wry lyrics and ultra British delivery. "Everyone is a clever clone, A chrome covered clone am I, So in the absence of a way of life, Just repeat this again and again and again." Excellent cheeky Brit-pop, notwithstanding the rather ridiculous Craig Nicholls-like performance from Damon in the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueAngel Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 It was released as a single between Leisure and Modern Life is Rubbish. Since it didn't chart well in Britain, it wasn't included on the British release of Modern Life... but it was on the American version so its a bit of a rarity.

OLD 55 Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 How about this great Stones' cover Ain't Too Proud To Beg ? Any takers ? I seem to like different Stones' songs to many here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkstones Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 How about this great Stones' cover Ain't Too Proud To Beg ? Any takers ? I seem to like different Stones' songs to many here. I love the Stones (hence part of my name), but I'm not that fond of their cover. I prefer the original. I love Mick's voice, it's very original. But he lacks the soulful rawness that David Ruffin's voice had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 I love the Stones (hence part of my name), but I'm not that fond of their cover. I prefer the original. I love Mick's voice, it's very original. But he lacks the soulful rawness that David Ruffin's voice had. I must say that I love both versions. I knew the original when they released "It´s Only Rock'nRoll" (the album) and I found that new version just great. So I'll vote for both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
