Overview Edit

"Bang" is a song by Blur and was released 29 July 1991 as their third single, reaching #24 in the UK Singles Chart (see 1991 in British music). It was also featured on the band's debut album Leisure. It has been all but disowned by the band, who claim it was written in less than fifteen minutes in response to record company demands for another bankable single. It is almost never played live.

Its disappointing performance relative to previous single "There's No Other Way" marked the end of Blur's initial period of popularity, which would not be equalled until the release of "Girls & Boys" three years later.
