Non son desas persoas que defenden a capa e espada a un grupo musical. Non me gusta crear ídolos de papel: son moi febles e rematan por romper. Non seguiría a ninguén polas palabras senón polos feitos. Non me gusta xulgar á xente polo seu aspecto externo, aínda que, algunhas veces o faga. Non quero obedecer ordes, prefiro ter un convencemento pleno de que o que estou a piques de comezar vai ser algo realmente bo. Non pertenzo ás masas, estou do lado dunha inmensa minoría...
Non podo describir a Suede con palabras nin desexo facelo. Moitos o intentaron, pero todo o que dixeron quedouse corto en comparación coa súa música. Se non os coñeces podo darche unha pista para que entres en materia: admiran a David Bowie.
Se os viches en directo podes sentirte afortunado/-a e envidiado/-a por todos aqueles que nos temos que conformar con escoitalos nun cd que xa está raiado polo uso.

The 2 Of Us
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 roundLying in my bed,
Watching my mistakes,
I listen to the band they said that it could be the 2 of usThe snow might fall and write the lines on the silent page
But you're outside making permanet 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 classLying 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 usI heard you call from across the city through the stereo sound
And so I crawled there sickeningly pretty as the money went roundLying 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 usAlone but not lonely, you and me
Alone but loaded.......
The Wild Ones
There's a song playing on the radio
Sky high in the airwaves on the morning show
And there's a lifeline slipping as the record plays
And as I open the blinds in my mind I'm believing that you could stay
And oh if you stay I'll chase the rainblown fields away
We'll shine like the morning and sin in the sun
Oh if you stay
We'll be the wild ones, running with the dogs today
There's a song playing through another wall
All we see and believe is the DJ and the debts disolve
And it's a shame the plane is leaving on this sunny day
Con on you my tattoo will be bleeding and the name will stain
But oh if you stay we'll ride from disguised suburban graves
We'll go from the bungalows where the debts still grow each day
And oh if you stay I'll chase the rainblown fears away
We'll shine like the morning and sin in the sun oh if you stay
We'll be the wild ones, running with the dogs today
We'll be the wild ones, running with the dogs today
Animal Nitrate
Like his dad you know that he's had
Animal nitrate in mind,
Oh in your council home he jumped on your bones
Now you're taking it time after time
Oh it turns you on, on, now he has gone
Oh what turns you on now your animal's gone?
Well he said he'd show you his bed
And the delights of the chemical smile,
So in your broken home he broke all your bones
Now you're taking it time after time
Oh it turns you on, on, now he has gone
Oh what turns you on now your animal's gone?
What does it take to turn you on, on,
Now he gas gone?
Now you're over 21?
Now your animal's gone?
...animal, he was animal, an animal
Europe Is Our Playground
run with me baby, let your hair down
through every station, through every town
run with me baby, let's take a chance
from Heathrow to Hounslow, from the Eastern Block to France
europe is our playground, London is our town
so run with me baby now
run with me baby, let your hair down
through every station, through every town
run with me baby, let's make a stand
from peepshow to disco, from Spain to Camber Sands
europe is our playground, London is our town
so run with me baby now...
Beautiful Ones
High on diesel and gasoline, psycho for drum machine
shaking their bits to the hits,
Drag acts, drug acts, suicides, in your dad's suits you hide
staining his name again,
Cracked up, stacked up, 22, psycho for sex and glue
lost it to Bostik, yeah
Shaved heads, rave heads, on the pill, got too much time to kill
get into bands and gangs,
Oh, here they come, the beautiful ones, the beautiful ones
loved up, Doved up, hung around, stoned in a lonely town
shaking their meat to the beat
High on diesel and gasoline, psycho for drum machine
shaking their bits to the hits,
Oh, here they come, the beautiful ones, the beautiful ones
You don't think about it,
You don't do without it,
because you're beautiful,
And if your baby's going crazy
that's how you made me,
la, la, la, la...
The Asphalt World
I know a girl she walks the asphalt world
She comes to me and I supply her with Ecstasy
Sometimes we ride in a taxi to the ends of the city
Like big stars in the back seat lide skeletons ever so pretty
I know a girl she walks the asphalt world
But where does she go?
And what does she do?
And how does she feel when she's next to you?
and who does she love in time-honoured for?
Is it me or her?
I know a girl she walks the asphalt world
She's got a friend, they share mascara I pretend
Sometimes they fly from the covers to the winter of the river
For these silent stars of the cinema
It's in the blood steam, it's in the liver
I know a girl, she walks the arse felt world
But where does she go?
And what does she do?
And how does she feel when she's next to you?
and who does she love in time-honoured for?
Is it me or her?
With ice in her blood
And a Dove in her head
Well how does she feel when she's in your bed?
When you're in her arms
And there in her legs
Well I'll be in her head
Cos that's where I go
And that's what I do
And that's how it feels when the sex turns cruel
Yes both of us need her, this is the asphalt world
The Drowners
Won't someone give me a gun?
Oh, well it's for my brother,
Well he writes the line wrote down my spine
It says "Oh do you believe in love there?"
So slow down, slow down, you're taking me over
And so we drown, Sir we drown, stop taking me over
Won't someone give me some fun?
(and as the skin flyes all around us)
We kiss in his room to a popular tune
Oh, real drowners
So slow down, slow down, you're taking me over
And so we drown, Sir we drown, stop taking me over!
New Generation
I wake up every day to find her back again
Screaming my name through the astral plane
And in this catalogue town she takes me down
Down through the platinum spires
Down through the telephone wires
And we shake it around in the underground
And like a new generation rise
And like all the boys in all the cities
I take the poison, take the pity
But she and I, we soon discovered
we'd take the pills to find each other
Oh but when she is calling here in my head
Can you hear her calling
And what she has said?
Oh but when she is calling here in my head
It's like a new generation calling
Can you hear it call?
And I'm losing myself, losing myself to you
I wake up every day to find her back again
Breeding disease on her hands and knees
While the styles turn and the books still burn
Yes it's there in the platinum spires
It's there in the telephone wires
And we spread it around to a techno sound
But like a new generation rise
Cos like all the boys in all the cities
I take the poison, take the pity
But she and I, we soon discovered
we'd take the pills to find each other
Oh but when she is calling here in my head
Can you hear her calling
And what she has said?
Oh but when she is calling here in my head
It's like a new generation calling
Can you hear it call?
And I'm losing myself, losing myself to you
my dark star
in a hired car she will come to England from the sea,
and as the tide flows the London snows will come.
and from the skyline shines the lies of the government's
singular history
so in a hired world she will buy a gun
and she will come from India with a love in her eyes
that say, oh how my dark star will rise
in rented gear 2000 years we waited for a man
but with a tattooed tear she'd die for us all tonight.
and she will come from India with a gun at her side,
or she will come from Argentina
with her cementery eyes that say
oh, how my dark star will rise,
... and she will rise.
