Blur - new album Anyone else got this yet?
I'm just listening to for the first time, in the background. And quite a few times already, there have been bits and pieces that really remind me of Prince. I never thought that would happen on a Blur album. Anyone else heard it and think the same?

It doesn't sound a bit like Prince to me though. No matter, because it's an absolute masterpiece. | |

I think it sounds more like Radiohead than Prince. I like a few songs a lot. Good Song is a great groove, also songs 10-13 I love. | |

No, I agree, overall it does sound more Radiohead. What I meant was, there were a couple of times, just little pieces, that made me think og Prince. can't remember which, don;t have the album to hand. But it is an amazing album. ----------------------------------------------------------------------

No way! I guess you mean "Kid A" or "Amnesiac"? Fuggeddit! Blur have always been a lot of fun, even when their music has been at its bleakest. Radiohead have never been fun. Ever! | |

Recommended Blur sites:
www.damon-albarn.com (great for rare downloads) www.mourby.plus.com/blur/...noise.html (a couple of good downloads here - one very rare) www.blur.co.uk (official - but excellent - it's free and a million times better than NPGMC) Enjoy | |

I'm loving this album. Very diverse styles and far more accessible than 13 (but not as good, imo!)
Fave tracks are Ambulance, Out Of Time, Good Song, Sweet Song and Jets. | |
