What do you think of the rest of 13,gggggg, bearing in mind that Tender is your no.1 track ever?

its a brilliant album... OF COURSE... but "Tender" is kinda segregated from the rest of the album in a strange way... its probably the 3rd or 4th best Blur album (after Parklife and maybe Think Tank)

4.1/10 blur (mostly generic)
8.2/10 modern life is rubbish (loses it towards the end but side 1 as I originally owned it, is faultless)
9.1/10 parklife (still sounds fresh)
5.2/10 the great escape (doesn't)
8.8/10 blur (how to left turn successfully)
9.6/10 13 (experimental genius AND great songs)
2.3/10 think tank (how NOT to left turn successfully)

RIGHTNESS.

13 is pure genius from beginning to end and has the most perfect flow of track to track that I've ever heard.

The Great Escape, while being far from a perfect album, will always have a special place in my heart, being the first ever 'non-pop' album I bought and played to death at the time. Shame it took another 9 years for me to come across to the other side!

Modern Life is Rubbish

This album provided the foundations for Britpop!

13 hands down. Here is how I rate the Blur albums in general:

Excellent
13

Very Good
Modern Life is Rubbish
Parklife
Blur

Fair
Think Tank
Leisure
The Great Escape

None of their albums are poor, but Think Tank is easily one of their worst records.
