Wooo-hooo! The noisy sounds and the magnetic images from this video created one of the most interesting and potent moments of music videos of all time. Blur's
"Song 2" is one of those songs impossible to resist, with a catchy force and unmistakable even though millions of people might not know who's singing and what the
song is about. Therefore, we have an impact and one that can't be missed.
Dave Rowntree's entrance with the drums, Graham Coxon playing a few notes from the guitar yet not visible on the shot then cut to Damon Albarn's face on
a tight close-up shouting the remarkable screams that permeate the song. By that time Alex James joins in with the noticeable bass sounds and all members are
all united creating the energy, the rhythm one cannot escape because it's all so addicting. What makes the video crazier than other videos of rock groups
performing a number is the special effects and cables that makes Blur being pushed against the wall or the floor when the chorus is being played out. A device
used to make the music stronger to the point that whatever happens to the helpless men from playing their instruments or stop Albarn from his sexy gaze to the camera
it reaches audiences to not stay impassive with everything. You can jump, shake your head, dance around, make some moves or just go Wooo-hooo! One does not get
indifferent with this music neither the video. The effects are a little bizarre, but they work without being the distractive substance that could overshadow the
main ingridient which is the song. Everything is simple, short but of great effectiveness.
More than 20 years from its release and it never made me lost contact with it, never made me bored. There's tiny hidden things there to make me come back. Watch it and you'll discover many good things in it. Yeah, yeah! 10/10.
