I think you had to be living here at the time to know how big it was Chris. It was headline news that week, (and the only reson Blur won was cos their CD single was a quid cheaper ). Anyhow Blur won the battle but Oasis the war so to speak, as Whats the story pissed all over Blurs "the great escape". Thats why you never heard much of Blur over there.
