Jonny's favorite Pablo Honey track and the band's closing song of choice for many of the early shows, 'Blow Out' is one of Thom's more personal songs about low self-esteem. Many fans consider this the strongest track of the album (besides Creep), and the music towards the end of the track is fantastic.

On the reissue of the Creep single, a remix of this track appears. The remix opens with Thom singing over a simple guitar line. This version has a much faster, feedback induced ending than the album version.
