From March to July 1990, Blur toured Britain, opening for the Cramps , and testing out new songs. In October 1990, after their tour was over, Blur released the single ” She’s So High “, which reached number 48 in the UK singles chart . The band had trouble creating a follow-up single, but they made progress when paired with producer Stephen Street . The resulting single release, ” There’s No Other Way “, became a hit, peaking at number eight. As a result of the single’s success, Blur became pop stars and were accepted into a clique of bands who frequented the Syndrome club in London dubbed ” The Scene That Celebrates Itself “. NME magazine wrote in 1991, “[Blur] are [the] acceptable pretty face of a whole clump of bands that have emerged since the whole Manchester thing started to run out of steam.”
