the universal - Blur

Blanco. Me encanta el blanco, aunque se ensucia más que cabro chico en reclame de Omo. Toda esa volada futurista, muy en la onda de la "La Isla", pelicula del 2005. Es mi video preferido de Blur, por no decir de toda la vida. Es del director Jonathan Glazer, que ha realizado excelentes trabajos junto a Radiohead ( Street Spirit ) Jamiro (virtual insanity), Richard Ashcroft ( A song for the lovers ), entre otros. Si pueden conseguirse vean este DVD, referente a su trabajo Work of Jonathan Glazer.
Volviendo al clip, es una clara alución a la Naranja Mecánica, es cosa de fijarse en la ambientación, una adaptación de la guarida que tenían los Droogies. Además de las imágenes pasadas a menos de 1 seg. todas con iconos de la Overclock Orange. Caso aparte es la actuación de Damon Albarn, que le sale con bastante naturalidad el papel de loco. Aquí el video




The Universal
Blur
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 along
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
