As a Westerner I never listened to much foreign music at all. But when my favorite musicians began fusing "foreign music" into their repertoire, they have introduced me to an entire new line of music I never would have considered. And I am finding beautiful, fantastic music from all over the world. Thanks for the comment.

The Gallaghers don't need to be on the same story, paragraph, sentence or breath anymore when discussing Damon Albarn. That argument was squashed and buried two decades ago.

The creative musical mind of Damon is boundless, infinite, magical, incredible! As a Middle Eastern person, I'm so happy to see and listen to this, his music crosses borders, cultural barriers, and definitely remind us all that we are all united by our humanity. Damon is unique in every way as a musician, he is an original artists, a trend-setter, but above all his a human being with an open mind and with an awakened conscience. His support for the Palestinian cause and other humanitarian causes globally is another proof of how a great person he is outside of music, well cultured and aware of what's happening in the world. Simply, an incredible artist.

@wellumm 11 ай бұрын

didn't know about him being Pro Palestine I'm glad if he is.

@MostafaTamer89 10 ай бұрын

@@wellumm Yes, Damon is a supporter of Palestine and BDS, back in 2014 he cancelled concerts in Israel so not cross the picket line, he also supports BDS. It was heart-warming for me too when I knew about it, but it's not a surprise as Damon always took a stance against war and imperialism, he was one of the most vocal critics from the music industry against the Iraq war and supported many social causes for minorities and disadvantaged people.

@Bellocks1 3 жыл бұрын

It’s funny when people talk about Blur in terms of guitars, Graham gets a lot of plaudits (and rightly so). But with Think Tank, it shows off Damon’s skills, and to me he’s quite underrated.
