[@ablurida]

God, this song makes me feel so high... works on Damon too, he looks really transported in this perfomance. Kids, don't do drugs. Listen to The Universal. Same result.

[@osvaldojoseecheverriacolla2231]

ablurida hi. sure. Please say not to drugs. Yes music yes live.

ablurida doing them both at the same time works too

pretty sure Damon itself created this by experiencing both things.

[@AgustinaLopsta]

Damon was high, that is why he had that stick. HE IS AMAZING, even when he is high he can do magic.

[@riahlexington]

Agustina Lopsta mhm

[@TheStorehouseOfMemories]

Nope, had a foot injury

[@amywalsh2001]

@@TheStorehouseOfMemories so why does he have both shoes on and why does he have a walking stick not a crutch and why is a very heavy opiate an appropriate medical response to a cut on the foot?

[@amywalsh2001]

@@TheStorehouseOfMemories the reality is not naming what it was but pointing out the facts it was a heavy opiate and it was smoked. That's why the peak didn't hit him immediately with the high. Not naming it but he smoked it that's why he was high in the beginning and thats why later he had a delayed peak.

[@aschmitt3395]

I would like to think that "this is the next century" and Mr. Albarn is very old?

[@patjackson8649]

Damon had cut his foot very badly, hence the cane - and the painkillers...and the offbeat performance. He's so staggeringly beautiful here that it hardly matters, though...

[@riahlexington]

Pat Jackson awwwww :(

I thought the cane was a cool little nod to A clockwork Orange but there you go haha

when he falls with the instrumental in the background it manages to be so sad and beautiful at the same time.

What's with this man, really? What does make him so lovable? Appearance? Talent? Both? I'm simply obsessed with Damon.. huhu..

[@g.z.8495]

Anna he seemed very sincere Almost as a child Plus the talent he had and so on:)

[@docsavage8640]

Unusual combination of drive, talent, and looks

[@noursarhan8695]

I don't know. I just want to get over this one year obsession so bad, but I really can't...goddammit he's so amazing

[@noursarhan8695]

@@docsavage8640 yep, exactly. I really admire him as a person, because after all these years he's stayed true to himself and his beliefs. You can see how dedicated he is to what he does and how he isn't afraid to speak his mind and bring awareness on issues that he finds important. He used to have a very competitive kind of drive, almost antagonistic, but I think that over the years he's learned to use it in a more positive and involving way. That crazy childlike behaviour is still there though :D

Now I recall watching this as an 8 year old and I thought he was acting at the end, like theatrical display overwhelmed by the music. Oh nostalgia for my 90's mtv childhood and innocence

[@burningjdm]

That must have been such an amazing experience, high out of his mind staring at the spotlights while listening to a heavenly song while his band plays in front of thousands of people.

[@Marina-pe1gx]

I remember an interview of Ewan McGregor describing the drug addicts he observed for his portrayal of Mark Renton. He talked about how they leaned back very much like Damon does here.

[@amywalsh2001]

Yes because he was high on a very heavy opiate this incredible unlikely to be prescribed by a Dr for injury. God this blows me. How many times he been caught going on the nod in public and no one thinks of the possibility he's a herion user. I've been around opiates for a long time even in their early days it was obvious. It was so obvious in front of the public for so long and no one ever figured it. It blows me away. I'm not even an addict but due to recreational use I've gain the bad habit of scratching my nose the same way a herion addict does and don't listen to my story of recreational use. I've never ever met another person who managed to maintain recreational. I'm a complete oddity.

[@pokermika]

Everyone's kinda talking about Damon, but can we please appreciate Alex's Hair?

perfect, i think we all feel the same as damon when we listen to this song.

[@AceToneRecords]

flashback! i remember watching this at my cousins' house when i was a kid, and my mom and aunt being very disapproving of damon falling down backwards on stage. something about it being dangerous rock and roll behaviour. lol

[@childofthesun32]

It must be fucking amazing to have the mental health to be able to go on stage in front of an audience off your face on drugs. I couldn't even sit in silence next to my friends, near the end of the drug days, without having a fucking psychotic break down of delusion and paranoia. I do miss those days though.

[@TaylorStJohn-fp9zs]

I'm looking at some of the comments below. I never realized Damon played around with heroin. I am a recovering opioid addict, and I can definitely say from personal experience he looks like he is riding on a very blissful cloud. Lmao.

[@Radagast-]

That's what Beetlebum's about.

[@neptunesdemise]

@@Radagast-and bugman. and mellow song. and probably others i’m forgetting, but heroin definitely impacted the majority of their late 90s music.
