Blur Parklife Alternative Titles Soft Porn Softporn London Sport Magic Arrows Britpop Tribute Band

Every Britpop band & Blur fan instantly recognises the front cover of Parklife by Blur (By photographer Bob Thomas) featuring Greyhounds at Walthamstow Stadium Dog track races. But did you know Blur’s Parklife was going to be called a multitude of alternative titles first? Oh no? Well that’s hardly surprising, it’s not spoken about much.  Britpop Musician Andy Starkey from Brit pop tribute band Britpop Reunion takes you through the stories behind the naming of and various front covers of Parklife. Hire Blurred a Blur tribute band performing the songs of Blur by contacting me Andy now.

Blur Parklife Alternative Titles

While Parklife by Blur was being recorded there were a number of possible alternative titles plus many different sleeves/artwork going around.  Chris Thomson & Rob O’Connor (Graphic designers at Stylorouge and designers of Parklife album sleeve) met Damon Albarn and Blur at Worlds End pub on Kings Road,  Chelsea where they proceeded on to a William Hill betting shop. Between them all they had been exploring “Britishness”. Including the atmosphere within betting shops and bookmakers and the types of punters visiting these sorts of establishments.

Damon was also reading ‘London Fields’ by Martin Amis, a novel about the seedier, working class side of London lives and realised his songs for Parklife were somewhat based on that book. (Drinking, sex etc). In fact I personally would say the book was a HUGE influence to Damon.  Subjects like visiting America…”Magic America”, fast cars driving curiously through London streets as in “London Loves” so too there are the lyrics “The mystery of a speeding car.” Certainly not a coincidence is it. 

London Fields / London Loves
London Fields / London Loves

Was London Fields by Martin Amis an influence on Parklife?

Having read ‘London Fields’ myself, I feel that Damon Albarn may have started reading it even further back than Parklife. Specifically during the recording of Blur’s second album ‘Modern Life Is Rubbish.’ There are multiple mentions of Portobello Road. There’s a character called “Missy” and going to “America” (Miss America)  There is a chance Damon was still reading it while writing songs from their fourth album “The Great Escape” as London Fields features a character called “Kwango”. A variant spelling for the song Mr. Robinson’s “Quango” perhaps? Side note: London Fields was made into a film and released in 2018, directed by Mathew Cullen and featuring Amber Heard & Jim Sturgess. It was unfortunately mainly disliked by critics and the average film lover. And I completely agree with those reviews. 

Queens Guards Parklife Blur Alternative

The alternative titles suggested instead of Parklife included:

  • London.
  • Sport.
  • Soft Porn (Spelled as one whole word ‘Softporn’ on the album sleeve).
  • Magic Arrows.
  • Park Life (Two separate words)

Parklife artwork

Chris & Rob’s images depicted the class divide in London, but leaned more towards the Upper Middle Class of society. As can be seen in the 1960s image of a posh tennis player. But Damon wasn’t 100% sold on this exactly and seeing these images helped him to focus on his working class and social class ideas. Between them they were using images of every day mundane things in London and reappropriating them. “Tourist Tat” like images of The Queen’s Guards would now be made newly famous for use within a different format. This was similar to how Pop Art artists like Peter Blake had done so back in the 1960s with The Beatles and The Who.

As you’ll see a number of different album sleeves were also trialed for Parklife including:

  • Park Life (With a space) featuring the front grill of a Rolls Royce car.
  • 1960’s image of a male model dressed as an upper class tennis player.
  • Toy models of Buckingham Palace Guards aka The Queen’s Guards dressed in traditional red tunics and bearskin hats (Tourist Tat)
  • Soft Porn featuring Buckingham Palace and its guards (Again)

Another alternative cover for the Parklife album cover featured a fruit and veg stall in London’s Portobello Road but no images of this are available (as far am I am aware but contact me if you have any). The alternative album sleeves were shown to the band at Maison Rouge Studio where they were recording and mixing Parklife with Stephen Street in London during 1993 & 1994. Finally of course they settled on the Greyhounds artwork and the name ‘Parklife’. But where did the name ‘Parklife’ come from?

Blur Park Life Rolls Royce Grill

A possible reason Blur’s third album ended up being called Parklife.

Dave Rowntree (Blur drummer) shared this image on Twitter from the Evening Standard newspapers ‘Flat Buyers Guide” that was pinned to the studio wall during the recording of Blur’s third album giving insight into the possible naming of PARKLIFE. It shows an advert for newly built flats for sale on Empire Wharf (On the banks of Hertford Union Canal) which overlook Victoria Park. Thus you can have a “Parklife” starting from £54,995 for a one bedroom apartment. Or £69,995 for a two bedroom flat. Imagine how much they must be worth now?

Other musings about Parklife.

Considered by many to be ‘The Best Blur Album’ Parklife wasn’t just 16 songs. There were also eleven b-sides in total from various formats of singles Girls & Boys, To The End, Parklife and End Of A Century. They were all recorded during the same sessions as Parklife but we’re kept back for none album / b-side tracks. These included:

  • Magpie
  • Anniversary Waltz
  • People in Europe
  • Peter Panic
  • Threadneedle Street
  • Got Yer!
  • Beard
  • Supa Shoppa
  • Theme from an Imaginary Film
  • Rednecks
  • Alex’s Song

All of which are featured on the “The Special Collectors Edition” Blur compilation album. If you’re a big Blur fan (Especially so of the ‘Britpop’ era) then this a great selection of tunes. You really can hear the Parklifeness in all of the songs……I bet ‘People In Europe’ very nearly made it onto the actual album.

Below is a nice bit of Blur memorabilia from back in the day. It is a tracking sheet for the song ‘This Is A Low’ recorded at Matrix Studios, Little Russell Street, London WC1.  A track sheet displays what track numbers were used for each instrument while being recorded.

Blur the band were first known at ‘Circus’ then ‘Seymour’. Frontman singer Damon Albarn and the members changed the name of the band to ‘Blur’ at the request of their record company ‘Food’. Blur’s first chart success was with the hit single ‘She’s So High‘ and then ‘There’s No Other Way‘. Initially falling somewhere between the Madchester and Shoegaze sounds Blur performed moderately well in the UK charts. But indie band Blur eventually found their greatest success during the mid 90’s changing their sound to a very ‘British’ style. Big brash horn sections, post punk angular guitars and postmodern humour coupled with lyrics about the every day lives British people. Blur really are where Britpop all started.

With the release of the single ‘Popscene’ Blur pretty much created the sound and music genre known as ‘Britpop’. After Modern Life Is Rubbish Blur delved even further into questioning what was Britishness and created the Brit pop classic album Parklife. Blur tribute band Blurred can be hired for live events across the UK, Europe, USA and beyond.

Britpop Reunion frontman Andy Starkey was support for The Bluetones at Guildhall Lichfield. Andy performed a set of Britop and 90’s tracks and chatted to the 180 guests audience about the 90’s and Britpop. He was on stage from 7:45pm and had everyone singing along with him to his 90’s covers. This was just before Mark Morriss and Adam Devlin performed as an acoustic duo version of The Bluetones.

It was an absolutely superb night with The Bluetones being on fine form talking about their history and things that have happened recently too. The Bluetones lead singer Mark  Morriss went to get his hair cut in Lichfield just before the gig at Joells Hair Care which is the oldest hairdressers in the city (and boy are there a lot of hairdressers to choose from in Lichfield). He gave owner Dave complimentary tickets for this event and chatted to him while on stage. Bluetones Guitarist Mark Devlin had dropped his guitar and gear off earlier in the day and went for a walk around the beautiful Staffordshire city. But upon returning the whole of Guildhall was locked up so he couldn’t gain entry. He banged on the doors hoping someone would hear him but the Police showed up as they thought he was trying to break in.

Andy Starkey finally managed to get his treasured 1995 poster signed by the band as well as a selfie and shots with the band and his partner and his partners sister. They all chatted backstage about “The good old days” before and after they all performed.

Originally sung by lead singer Linda Perry of 4 Non Blondes, What’s Up was also released as a Eurodance track by DJ Miko featuring rerecorded lead vocals Louise Gard. If you listen carefully to this dance track you’ll find some slight differences in the lyrics sung. 

Fun fact 1: The official YouTube video for this song has amassed over an incredible 1.8 BILLION views. 

Fun Fact 2: The phrase “What’s up” is never mentioned in this nineties song anywhere. We therefore assume most people think this song is actually called “What’s going on?”.

Lyrics to What’s Up by 4 Non Blondes

25 years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope for a destination

I realised quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means

And so I cry sometimes when I’m lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what’s in my head
And I, I am feeling, a little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
And I take a deep breath and get real high and I
Scream from the top of my lungs What’s Going On?

And I said Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hey yeah yeah, I said hey, what’s going on?
And I said Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hey yeah yeah, I said hey, what’s going on?

And I try, oh my God do I try
I try all the time, in this institution
And I pray, oh my God do I pray,
I pray every single day for revolution

And so I cry sometimes when I’m lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what’s in my head
And I, I am feeling, a little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
And I take a deep breath and get real high and I
Scream from the top of my lungs What’s Going On?

And I said Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hey yeah yeah, I said hey, what’s going on?
And I said Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
Hey yeah yeah, I said hey, what’s going on?
