A great song, but it's too short!!!

When he speaks to her

Without looking at her

You sing the driest of words

With his mind on what's on the telly

The rumors pass on

Blur - "No Monsters In Me" (from the single "The Universal")
The head of the Blur Fan Club says that this song sounds like
Faith No More. Not to me it doesn't, it sounds more like Menswear.

Blur - "Ultranol" (from the single "The Universal")
Easily one of their best b-sides to date. I don't know the
words, but here are the chords, it's better to play them with
power (fifth) chords:
Verse:
A (A#) B
Transition:
A D C# B
Chorus:
G F# F E (2x) D C# C C# D C# C C#
Ending:
D C
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official BLUR tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
