"Blurry" reached #8 in the UK Singles Chart on its release there in June 2002, becoming the band's highest charting single in the United Kingdom. The song still receives radio airplay marginally. ==Content== "Blurry" is about a break-up, as well as cowardice. The song was primarily written about how lead singer Wes Scantlin misses his real-life son, Jordan, which is also played by him. It is best known for its refrain, from which it derived its secondary name: "''Can you take it all away? / Can you take it all away? / When you shoved it in my face / This pain you gave to me''". ''Guitar One'' magazine named Doug Ardito's "Blurry" guitar harmonic riff as one of its "Top Ten Riffs of the Decade". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Blurry」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
