Such an underrated album, their second best in my opinion. Songs like this one, "Blue Jeans", "Oily Water", and "Colin Zeal" are Blur classics. Way better than the album that came before it, and the big crossover album that came after. The sound of a young band with something to prove. In some spots, like "Sunday Sunday", they sound a bit more desperate. But when they succeed with their experiments, it fucking rocks. This hazy evergreen is proof of that.
I could not tell you one Blur song that I actually dislike. They’ve probably all been my favourite at some points, theyre the only band where I’ve liked everything they produce(d)?
This song helped me to mourn the death of Mia-Nichelle Lee, the mother of my son Seth and the woman I loved from 1998 to 2010. Every time I hear the first couple of bars I weep and am sobbing now writing this. Blur is a great band!
You sir are a sensitive man who has a great taste in music,I wish you all the health of the world to have strength and be able to bring all the beautiful memories of her in front of you and dream away
Miss America sits in the shower She's plucking hours from the sky Picks up the telephone, into another home Don't ask me why I don't mind I don't mind at all I love only you She's a well wisher and she wishes you well Wish away, wish away She no jellybean, she a Jemima ho ho Wish away, wish away I don't mind I don't mind at all I love only you Here is here and I am here, where are you? Far away, far away She no jellybean, she a Jemima ho ho Wish away, wish away I don't mind I don't mind at all I love only you
Too right. I only recently heard that Syd Barrett tune for the first time, and the first thing I thought was it sounds like Miss America. (I know - it should be the other way round).
[Verse 1] Miss America sits in the shower She's plucking hours from the sky Picks up the telephone into another home Don't ask me why [Chorus] I don't mind, I don't mind at all I love only you [Verse 2] She's a well wisher and she wishes you well Wish away, wish away She no jellybean, she a Jemima, ho-ho Wish away, wish away [Chorus] I don't mind, I don't mind at all I love only you Da-da, da-da-do Da-da, da-da-do [Verse 3] Here is here and I am here, where are you? Far away, far away She no jellybean, she a Jemima, ho-ho Wish away, wish away [Chorus] I don't mind, I don't mind at all I love only you Da-da, da-da-do Da-da, da-da-do Da-da, da-da-do
Think I was 18 when I first heard this, 50 now. Still rate this and Low Day as two of the best songs and pieces of music ever written. Has applied to much of my life, which is unfortunate.
+Dr W I wrote that a year ago, and I never realize that I wrote it wrong, actually I want to say "I don't KNOW why" 😂 it changes a little the meaning of the sentence
Sunday Sunday: Agresiva y una locura total. Oily Water: Hipnotazante y maravillosa. Miss America: La mas bella de todas eres tu. Por eso nos encanta blur, esa variedad de estilos y talento puro de sua integrantes con su personalidad muy diferente. Ah que hermoso fue conocer a blur, espero que me sigan acompañando en esta vida y donde sea que este.

I have heard they wrote this song during an Italian concert, inspired by a porn TV show that they used to broadcast in some local channels during the night. 🤣. Is it true?
Love this song , but really don't understand the meaning , English is not easy.. as a foreigner, Some one teach me what they sing.... Jemima? Jelly bean? Wish away? Plucking hours from the sky ?
