Suede

Suede are an English alternative rock band from London, formed in 1989. The group's most prominent early line-up featured singer Brett Anderson, guitarist Bernard Butler, bass player Mat Osman and drummer Simon Gilbert. By 1992, Suede were hailed as "The Best New Band in Britain", and attracted much attention from the British music press. The following year their glam rock-inspired debut album, Suede, went to the top of the charts, became the fastest-selling debut album in almost ten years and won the Mercury Music Prize, helping kick-start the Britpop movement. However, the band's lush follow-up, Dog Man Star (1994), saw Suede distance themselves from their Britpop peers.

Lying in my bed  I think of you 
That song goes through my head  the one we both knew 
In each line lies another line full of sacred sound 
But you're outside where the companies dream and the money goes round 
Lying in my bed. 
Watching my mistakes  
I listen to the band they said that it could be the 2 of us 

The snow might fall and write the lines on the silent page 
But you're outside making permanent love to the nuclear age 
Two silhouettes by the cash machine make a lovers dance 
It's a tango for the lonely wives of the business class 

Lying in my bed 
Watching my mistakes 
I listen to the band 
Lying in my bed 
With nothing much to say so I listen to the man 
He said that it could be the 2 of us 

I heard you call from across the city through the stereo sound 
And so I crawled there sickeningly pretty as the money went round 

Lying in my head watching my mistakes 
I listen to the band 
And the drums beat in my head 
Pianos chime the sound in this prison of the house 
And as the illness comes again can you hear me through the rain 
As I listen to the band? 
As I sing the silent song 
Mime each lonely word 
Please listen to the man he said that it could be the 2 of us 

Alone but not lonely, you and me 
Alone but loaded
