I've now heard the two singles Blur is going to release for their Think Tank album, 'Crazy Beat' here in the states, and 'Out of Time' in the UK.
I heard Crazy Beat on radio here in the Bay Area on Sunday and I was definately not impressed...it sounds like a b-side from Gorillaz or another attempt at making 'Song 2'. I guess the song could grow on me but it was a huge disappointment when I heard it.
On the other hand, I think Out of Time is a great song. It's very mellow and has a lot of unique instumentation (sitars etc.). It sounds very gentle and is definately a new sound for them.
You can watch the video for Out of Time with RealPlayer here:

but, I doubt the sound will come close to being CD quality.
Just as long as the rest of the album doesn't sound like 'Crazy Beat', I think I'll be happy. ;-)
