I can't remember the last time a song gave me goosebumps. I can't believe just how incredibly beautiful the chorus is, that contrast between an upbeat, uplifting melody and the crushingly sad lyrics. This is a masterpiece.

[@fortomorr0w]

There's something nostalgic about this song even though it's been out for only a few days. Gives summery road trip vibes.

[@ticketeer14]

Only Blur can make the word Barbaric sound as if it was a synonym for great

[@javiertendero7755]

One of the 10 best Blur songs. It’s a song talking to my 46 year old self. Love you, Blur.

Who blink first? 💝💝💝

Graham Coxon is one of the most underrated lead guitarists of all time - this track would be so much poorer without his constant noodling

[@Sheroppo]

This song makes me cry and smile at the same time.

[@ekretchy]

[@chrisyorkster2447]

Which is better - the narcissist or barbaric? its close for me, but leaning towards barbaric. Of course we dont have to choose, they are both amazing, thanks blur.

[@Cashmaster0mega]

Really need a permanent version of this whole show made available! It was soooo good

[@chrismorrison3696]

Graham Coxon's guitar work on this song is so beautiful. The bass is also great.

[@danielconnolly8565]

Brilliant joyful sadness. It’s a great song from a great album.

[@jamestweed3910]

No one does happy/sad like blur. Beautiful song

[@madebyjordan]

Easily a top 10 Blur song along with The Heights off the new album. Just magic.

[@bernardguitar]

Blur’s new album is amazingly good. Superb songwriting

[@aprofondir]

This is gonna be their big hit from this album, for sure.

[@jenniferkonstant5920]

This sounds like the Blur I fell in love with back in the 1990s. Well done, fellas.

[@deeg8849]

Coxon is just a great player. He has such a unique style that just elevates this great band

Who blinks first?
