Blur was formed in 1988 by Damon Albarn, Graham Coxon, Alex James, and Dave Rowntree at Goldsmiths College in London. Originally named Seymour after a character by J.D. Salinger, they changed their name to Blur in 1990 because their label, Food, didn't like the name Seymour. Their new name came from a list provided by Food - they band liked its brevity and impact. — By Songfacts

Ocasek's songs were generally far more enigmatic. — By Songfacts
