Review of Live Forever (2003) by Becca P — 27 Jul 2007
Basically this is a load of clips and interviews documenting Britpop - from E and baggy etc rising out of thatcherism, to the renaissance of british culture in the mid 90s (Pulp, Blur, oasis, trainspotting, some fashion bloke, etc) to the Labour government kidnapping it just as British rock started to die once and for all.
This is one of the great music documentaries - its a pity that it doesn't really say much about any of the other britpop bands (why are Suede not in it at all but massive attack get three albums mentioned?).
That said, its a really entertaining and interesting tribute to an era of music I wish I could remember properly. Some of the interview clips are genius.
