on 8 November 1995. Two songs performed at concert that didn't make the cut for the album can be found on the Japanese single, "It Could Be You": "Charmless Man" (originally performed before "Jubilee") and "Chemical World" (originally performed before "Coping"). The version of "She's So High" is an anomaly, as it is actually the 9 November 1995 performance from the NHK Hall in Tokyo. Until 2009, ''Live at Budokan'' was the only official standalone live Blur album. It was originally released only in Japan (or via the band's UK fan club), but has since been released internationally.
