How One Man Changed Music Forever...TWICE┃Blur and Gorillaz

Huge shoutout to the fan made animations I had to use for this video on the Gorillaz part because when I tried to use the actual music videos the video got worldwide blocked like 3 times lol. https://youtu.be/RM7rDiZuu9I?si=O5g180cqVP4wQnlP https://youtu.be/1-iPq3qWeQQ?si=fquUEwIdHRUI8hLV

I see gorillaz. I click.

you have no idea how happy i am to see people talking about how amazing damons work is, especially with blur. it just isnt talked about enough

blur is just so underrated, coming from 1 of their 3 fans from outside the UK

I heard a reporter once said to oasis “are you the new Beatles and blur the new Rolling Stones “, to which Gallagher replied, “no, we are the Beatles and the stones, blur are the monkeys “. And so Damon created the gorillaz.

Im not going to lie, i thought i was watching a massive youtuber. Good editing dude

This is the greatest blur crash course ever made I applaud you

I don't know why people say blur won the battle but lost the war because blur are still together with the same line up and are still releasing records, but oasis haven't been relevant for a long time now and have changed band members. Noel even went to the other side, he has played live with Damon on blur songs like Tender.

I wonder why Damon has not been deemed a legend among musician, the portfolio is so interesting and expansive. Over the years, he has adapted and module his voice plus totally different projects and excelling in everyone. Man has a flood of creativity and tireless energy

Damon is so underrated sometimes, he is a lyrical and musical genius

I feel like blur's work post-gorillaz was worth mentioning as well, particularly the increased Electronic influence on Think Tank after graham had left

Additional Information, Noel and Damon both collaborated on Gorillaz song “We Got The Power”, the song was about power of loving each other.

He’s so babygirl

I love Damon Albarn, and I'm really happy about the recognition these comments bring. I've watched him perform live once with his bandmates, Blur, during their reunion tour in Portugal last year, and it was a magical night! I'm a big fan of both their works. It's really hard to get relevant in two different generations with 2 different bands, he's one of the best British artists of all time. Great video mate! I'm rooting for your success!

Plastic Beach truly is one of the greatest concept albums of all time

my dream video essay

Ironically, Damons least favourite Blur pieces are my favourites. I adore TGE with my whole heart, its an album that means a hell of a lot to me, and I've based multiple art pieces around it and the band as a whole. Absolutely no skips on there for me, even the B-sides. On the topic of B-sides, there are some on Leisure that are total masterpieces and I think if they were included as A-sides, the album would be much stronger. I was a fan of Gorillaz before I was a fan of Blur, but Blur has had such an impact on my life that they overshadow my love for Gorillaz by miles

Very nice video! I never connected Blur and Gorillaz, although I listened both of them. I would like to see you telling more about this crossings between different popular groups. Keep doing great stuff!

it's always a great day when i remember beetlebum exists and is the best song in the world
