I feel when Damon put his vocals on, and I put my backing vocals on – that’s what makes Blur Blur. Abruptly, it’s like, ‘Woah, it seems like Blur’. But type of more like males. (…) I feel the voices are deeper, perhaps richer. There’s a wierd vulnerability, however there’s type of a power. It’s an fascinating factor to be part of. However extremely constructive. I assumed we have been getting on great – there was a lot of laughing in the studio, plenty of fooling around. We needed to snicker and be silly because it was intense. You’ve obtained to have occasions whenever you’re simply being an fool.
