Coming Up

Product Information

Two more singles, "15 Again" and "That Boy on the Stage" were released before the album. According to Anderson the former is "a song about falling in love with life for the first time," [115] and the latter "[is] about persona. It’s about the people we become." [116] On 12 September, the band announced the dates of a March 2023 UK tour. The 2023 tour is due to begin at Bath's Forum on 3 March, closing at O2 Academy Brixton on 25 March, 30 years after the band made their debut performance at the London venue in May 1993. [117] On 13 September, the band announced its first United States concert tour since 1997, a co-headlining North American tour with Manic Street Preachers. Both bands will play ten shows in the US and two shows in Canada throughout November. [118] [119] Suede was one of the bands performing at the 2022 Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix. [120] Coming Up. The perfect title for the follow-up to the dark and brooding Dog Man Star, since the commercial fortunes of Suede were about to be dramatically revived. This was no ironic title. The band had recorded a hit album and it would be named appropriately. a b "Guld- och Platinacertifikat − År 1987−1998" (PDF) (in Swedish). IFPI Sweden.

Retrieved 25 April 2020.The album’s ‘keep it simple’ approach was also reflected in Brett’s lyrics. The literary lines of Dog Man Star were gone and Coming Up adopts a more traditional pop sensibility. The areas of interest hadn’t changed much though – drugs, relationships, Hollywood, empty lives – and Brett could still pull some great lines out of the bag “Class A, Class B, is that the only chemistry between us?” (The Chemistry Between Us). Although, for some tastes, his lyrics could occasionally be a little too simple “Bills and Bens and their mums and their friends who just really, really want to be loved” (Lazy). a b Segal, Victoria (23 April 2005).

Tras la marcha de Bernard Butler Suede lograron sobrevivir reinventándose con un sonido mucho más poppie y pegadizo, cercano al mismo britpop, sin que eso implique sonar como Oasis o Blur, pero lejos también del melodrama de 'Dog Man Star' y 'Suede'. Richard Oakes es un guitarrista eficaz y competente, pero no especialmente imaginativo y a veces el grupo parece sonar con el piloto automático y se notó mucho la ausencia de Butler.
