Damon Albarn - Getting Older (Deezer Sessions, Paris)

[@Hawial_]

it's a nice reflection we can make. the lyrics may be the same but listening damon, who is +50, and billie, who just started her life, has a total different meaning...

[@amianimal]

penetrating 🤍

[@luhdle]

Yes, like when Johnny Cash covered Hurt by Nine Inch Nails. It feels like more than a cover, it's two different versions of a story, almost being two different songs, bringing different feelings... Both Billie's original and Damon's cover give me goosebumps, love them both

[@SoCalloweenNEWS]

Such a bittersweet observation

[@thensome8663]

Billie saying how much she is influenced by Damon makes so sense when you hear him sing her songs.

[@juanb.m5753]

trueeeeee

[@thensome8663]

Billie is a lifelong Damon fan, I can’t imagine seeing your hero perform such a personal poignant song of yours and give it a whole new meaning. ❤

[@patrickallen2998]

The way he pronounces it I heard: "In love, We kiss, So much. Until, We don''t." And I fucking lost it. Now I can't unhear that. *shedding manly tears*

[@childrenofthegrave1965]

I am a fan of Billie Eilish and at the same time I am a fan of Gorillaz, how can I not fall in love with this beautiful cover made by Mr. Damon? I love it, thank you very much!

Listen to The Good the Bad the Queen (especially The Poison Tree) and all Blur if you don’t know it already.

[@childrenofthegrave1965]

@@thensome8663 I have heard the songs of Blur but not the other! :( It's been on my to-do list for a while lol

[@francinesju]

To me, it is a confession, and the song is very relatable even to the listener. I'm getting only 34 and feeling quite addressed :)

I AM SCREAMING I LOVE DAMON AND BILLIE IM DYING

I love his pink socks in combination with the dark outfit 😁

@The Awesome Damon Albarn Hater Cringe.

[@matthewshefler]

The perfect example of someone with an “old soul” writing something that exceeds any expectations and interpreted by the one person that sings it like it belonged to him. I discovered this song through Damon. I’m stunned. Stunned that Billie wrote it, of course, but relate to it so much through Damon. Anyways. Masterpiece. Astonishing interpretation.

[@Queeentrasputo]

i suggest you hear the billie time abc performance

[@matthewshefler]

@@Queeentrasputo oh yes, she’s grand. Damon just hits different. I relate to his version more I must say.

[@Ds92817]

What a cover. Damon is a living legend, watching blur at Alexandra palace 1994 then this, he’s a national treasure. Proper love for this man. He’s helped me get through so much in life with his work

[@retrored8051]

I know your comment is an old one but it really hit home with me as I feel the same way and have done for many years. I tell anyone I talk about music with that Damon is an absolute musical genius and living legend.

[@TrippyUnderMoonlight]

I reaaaally hope Billie saw this. This song is so personal to her, and also this man means so much to her. 😫

[@EnverWasHere]

It feels to melancholic that this, of all songs, is the second last song on his channel before he went silent 2 years ago. I wish the best for him and hope he's doing well.

[@AdRoXoN]

His piano arrangement is marverous

[@chezsonson]

gotta say albarn brings out different meanings to these lyrics..... blur and eilish are two of my favorite band/artists - both revolutionary - they're not afraid to make music sound different, with some really intereseting/heavy/dark lyrics.... honestly their music just SOUNDS AMAZING....

[@azi3564]

i’m both a huge damon albarn fan and a billie fan, this completed my life

[@blasphemy1013]

You couldn’t in a million years have convinced me this was written by a nineteen year old. Great work Damon, absolutely beautiful. Much love to Billie as well

[@emiliapzful]

Holy shit I love this cover. It's funny, the first time I ever saw Billie I thought she looked like young Damon, like she could be his daughter.

[@ablurida]

Same! I am glad I'm not the only one who sees the resemblance!

[@justynajustyna4367]

I've been an on and off listener since the beginning of BLUR. Always coming back to his music, in one form or another. Year by year, record by record, loving it even more :) I really love his melodic melancholy in everything he does. It is movingly beautiful.

[@dragonfly5665q]

omggg the fact that you covered the one and only billie eilish, you've got taste, KING !! 👑👑👑💛

[@RaoulFel]

Thank you to Billie eilish for these amazing lyrics, and thank you to damon for allowing me to relate to them. Beautiful.

[@magicnumber2310]

@@vegannoodls3168 I think this is what Billie was excited about gorillaz because she knew he was coming with her

[@Reaptress]

Such a beautiful cover, I’m sure Billie was over the moon about this! I was wondering why she was wearing all the Gorillaz’ t-shirts lately.. thought maybe a collab was in the works, but this is still awesome! ❤️

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

well, that sounds sad, haha…an underlying reason behind wearing something, not just because they feel like it

[@akaLids77]

@@RayasNegroOvejas someone just has to find something wrong with everything huh. I guess you’re that someone 😐

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

@@akaLids77 It was just a reaction. I didn't try to find anything "wrong". Which, yes, probably makes my comment even worse from your perspective. I'm sorry it came across that way.

[@akaLids77]

@Damon Albarn Hater would you mind making sense? Because you aren’t at the moment..

[@VicT992]

You were absolutely correct, a collab was in the pipeline. Artists/celebrities don't get photographed in particular clothing just by chance. Good observation! ;)

[@fede-tk3rm]

I'm getting older, I think I'm aging well I wish someone had told me I'd be doing this by myself There's reasons that I'm thankful, there's a lot I'm grateful for But it's different when a stranger's always waiting at your door Which is ironic 'cause the strangers seem to want me more Than anyone before (anyone before) Too bad they're usually deranged Last week, I realized I crave pity When I retell a story, I make everything sound worse Can't shake the feeling that I'm just bad at healing And maybe that's the reason every sentence sounds rehearsed Which is ironic because when I wasn't honest, I was still being ignored (Lying for attention just to get neglection) Now we're estranged Things I once enjoyed (ah-ah) Just keep me employed now Things I'm longing for Someday, I'll be bored of It's so weird That we care so much until we don't I'm getting older, I've got more on my shoulders But I'm getting better at admitting when I'm wrong I'm happier than ever, at least that's my endeavor To keep myself together and prioritize my pleasure 'Cause to be honest, I just wish that what I promise Would depend on what I'm given (not on his permission) (Wasn't my decision) to be abused, mmm Things I once enjoyed Just keep me employed now Things I'm longing for, mmh Someday, I'll be bored of It's so weird That we care so much until we don't But next week, I hope I'm somewhere laughing For anybody asking, I promise I'll be fine I've had some trauma, did things I didn't wanna Was too afraid to tell ya, but now, I think it's time

Qué preciosidad!!! Espero una colaboración de Damon o Gorillaz con Billie Eilish. Estaría genial!!!

[@lancekirkaldy8130]

Very very very rare that a cover tops the original but somehow in my humble opinion this brings a gravity to the song that the original doesn’t quite have. Huge respect and warmth to the writers however they have created a masterpiece.
