Blur – The Universal

With a Clockwork Orange inspired theme, this video comes to us from BlurBlur reviews’s forth album The Great EscapeThe Great Escape reviews. This alternative rock group originated in London in 1989 but came to me via YouTube at 4am in a res room at university. I was so lucky to come across such a gem that I thought I would spread my Christmas spirit with all and post it.

This is the next century
Where the universal’s free
You can find it anywhere
Yes, the future has been sold
Every night we’re gone
And to karaoke songs
How we like to sing a long
Although the words are wrong

It really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
When the days they seem to fall through you, well just let them go

No one here is alone, satellites in every home
Yes the universal’s here, here for everyone
Every paper that you read
Says tomorrow is your lucky day
Well, here’s your lucky day

It really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
When the days they seem to fall through you, well just let them go

Well, it really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
When the days they seem to fall through you, well just let them go

Just let them go
