Blur (band)/YMMV


 * Americans Hate Tingle: Along with Britpop in general, why their pre-Blur (the 4th album) material wasn't well recognized or accepted in the States by anyone who wasn't a music critic.
 * Awesome Music: "The Universal."
 * Ear Worm: WOO-HOO.
 * Being a pop group, they have a lot of these.
 * "Girls and Boys" is the most catchy after the aforementioned "Song 2".
 * Funny Aneurysm Moment: In the 1999 video for "Coffee & TV" - perhaps the band's most famous video - The man missing on the back of the milk carton is played by the band's guitarist Graham Coxon. By the time of the 2003 release of their next album, Think Tank, he was missing from Blur, having quit the band a few years earlier in acrimony.
 * Ho Yay: The boys kissed on stage. Yaoi fangirls? You may now rejoice.
 * Misaimed Fandom: No surprise, since band was irony at its fullest, but some people have problems noticing that.
 * Tear Jerker: "This Is A Low," "The Universal."
 * They Changed It, Now It Sucks: Notably averted; their Genre Shifts were mostly well-received.
 * Vindicated by History: Especially in America, their critical stature increased as years went by. By the end of the 90's, Many of the same American publications who negatively reviewed their earlier work were now putting records like Modern Life is Rubbish and Parklife into their Best Albums of the Decade lists.
 * The Woobie: The carton of milk from Coffee and TV.
