I'm gonna throw a controversial conversational hand grenade in. The Universal is MASSIVELY overrated. Something about it just grates with me, find it weirdly dated.

Pretty sure that has something to do with British Gas.

Speaking of grating though, I'll go with 'You're so Great' as my favourite.

Beautiful lyrics, sing-along chorus, lovely video with London in all its finest and people getting on with each other and life.

Happier, more optimistic times and so poignant in light of recent/today's events.

Jim stops and gets out the car
Goes to a house in Emperor's Gate
Through the door and to his room
Then he puts the TV on
Turns it off and makes some tea
Says, "Modern life, well, it's rubbish, I'm
Holding on for tomorrow"
Then Susan comes into the room
She's a naughty girl with a lovely smile
Says, "Let's take a drive to Primrose Hill"
It's windy there and the view's so nice
London ice can freeze your toes
Like anyone, I suppose you're
Holding on for tomorrow

Modern Life Is Rubbish.

2.The Universal
3.Sunday Sunday
4.End of a Century
5.Fade Away

Too many to choose from, but keep coming back to On Our Own.

Same as that , on Your own.

Wasn't really a great Blur fan, I suppose down to the Oasis thing at the time where I preferred the raw energy of Oasis. Personally thought Graham Coxons stuff was better.
