More theatrical, with more character songs than its predecessor but less memorable. Although the lyrics deal with the same sort of social commentary and satire Blur is known for, I find the delivery on certain songs too clunky and the rhymes forced. The album does contain some of their best singles and, what I consider to be their funniest song "Mr. Robinson's Quango" which makes me crack up every time I hear that bridge ("Oh, I'm a naughty naughty boy!")

Despite being the weakest album from Blur's britpop era, The Great Escape contains some of the band's best songs: 'The Universal', 'Charmless Man' and 'He Thought of Cars'
