“Beetlebum” is a 1997 Britpop song by British band Blur, released as the first single from their self-titled album. The track topped the UK Singles Chart and marked a darker, more psychedelic turn for the group. Its lyrics are interpreted as reflecting personal struggles, giving it an introspective feel. The mellow guitar riffs and distinctive melody made “Beetlebum” one of Blur’s most memorable hits of the late '90s alternative rock era.
