They should devote a half hour show to Britpop( I know that's
becoming an archaic term now, just like electronica will be this year).
Not only Blur, but Suede, Lush, Ride, Cast, Mansun, Stereolab, Echobelly, James,
etc.

Probably the best are The Universal, which is in the style of "A Clockwork
Orange", MOR, which is in the style of a 70s action film, Parklife, which
just fits the song beautifully, and Country House, which is in the style of
a Carry-On film (erm, if you don't know what carry-on films are, then
imagine Benny Hill crossed with Are You Being Served).
They play them lots on MTV UK, so I suppose you could always
emigrate........
Or we could all e-mail EMI saying they should do a video
compilation..........

They're just never playing them at any time.. around 2am or otherwise.
Shameful, innit?

These songs (singles) have videos:
1. She's so high - Great hair (!)
2. There's no other way - It's got 2 versions: Blur having lunch with a
family; Blur singing in a swimming pool.
3. Bang - Never watched.
4. Popscene - Changing shots every minute!
5. For tomorrow - Cool black & white one filmed in London.
6. Chemical world - not seen.
7. Sunday Sunday - (ditto)
8. Girls & Boys - 2 similar versions with people having fun in swimming
pool as background.
9. To the end - glamorous!!! The actress is beautiful! Story about
Graham being the husband but the wife having affairs with Damon. Then
Graham killed her....
10. Parklife - Funny! Alex is pretty being Cindy and Dave being Ken.
11. End of a century - I've watched the live version only as in
Showtime.
12. Country house - soooooooo cute! Playing something like monopoly.
13. The universal - Everything's white! So pure! Damon looks great
wearing one eyeliner!
14. Stereotypes - Live version from Mile End concert.
15. Charmless man - I love this the most! Ironic story with Blur just
like ghosts following the charmless man everywhere!
16. Beetlebum - The shot when Damon looks up at the camera singing
"she's a gun..." really kills me!!!!!
17. Song 2 - How could they crash so hard to the walls?
18. On your own - Graham hiding behind the wall!
19. M.O.R. - Blur not participating but stuntman.
Hope this could help!

What the hell is M2. In Canada we only get MuchMusic and the french version
of it MusiquePlus.
Understandably, since MTV US is a total load of arse.
