The Tears - Refugees

[plfrancisco]

1984

[jaymanjohn]

Heheh! Only a real Suede fan can appreciate this album! FYI, this album is what Coming Up supposed to be (if Bernard had stuck around). The album doesn't feel recycled at all. It sounds more like a continuation of the duo's best work.

[chansengin]

reminds me the "coming up" era,,,,,

[bobby58585]

it's so close to being so good... yet just not quite there. really like it though.

[jonnivvvvvvvvvvvv]

bad bad album....sorry but..

[kapry67]

Dandyman...suede or tears,whatever...

[jevticnenad]

very interesting top comments!!! :)

[ThePlacidman]

mmmmmmm.. I just love the sound of Bernard Butler's guitar @ 1:57

[johnmcparadisio]

Record exec1=Let's not play this let's just play one size fits all rubbish music. Record exec 2= Don't all the kids like Katy Perry, Lady Gaga or Miley Let's give them what they want.

[KiKiVanessa316]

This song is awesome!!!XDD

[oscargopaz69]

awesome reunion!!! and PLACEBO is the best band ever use your IQ dude...

[iamuaremod2]

As an American super-fan of Suede since 1994 (I was 12) I still have not been able to see my favorite band of all time live even w/ the reuinion this year. College students generally lack 1,300 dollars to fly to England, so if you've seen brett and co. consider yourself privelaged.

[Serenitynell]

@iamuaremod2 I'm very privileged. I've had a cuddle and a pic taken in the dressing room with him!!

[iamuaremod2]

@Serenitynell wow, soooooo jealous. At the same time extremely happy for you!

[Serenitynell]

@iamuaremod2 I performed a charity busk in my twin's pub in London, playing Suede songs for 24 hours! Brett  invited me backstage when he heard about the busk. (Clic Sargent - a kids with cancer charity). Contrary to how some describe him, he was extremely funny and down to earth. I'll always be a fan and it feels good knowing there are still others out there, too! Especially from America....xx

[miszczmateusz]

@thenewfella1994 of course they don't

[JoFilmable]

r gay dudes kissing? i dont have a problem with it im just wondering

[trilbyfoxglove]

not any masterpiece of a video but suits the album thematically - it's all about love and tenderness, isn't it?

[reniisgod]

Here Come The Tears is a class album, this particular song could fit anywhere on Coming Up tho

[noriega1239]

Nice voice of Bret

Nice Guitar o Bernanrd

[SteelDealer1]

con Suede o sin el, Brett Anderson no deja de verse sexualmente ambigúo

[Juan21831]

Can anyone tell me if Richard Salazar started this band or not hes father of Arion Salazar Former Bassist of Third Eye Blind....????

[andy78100]

2.50 of pure guitar pop heaven - love it

[joeisaflyingfish]

the best album that Suede never made.

[camdener1]

some of the lyrics are the same as suede's lonely girls

[karziflora]

Well....Suede are getting back together on March but w/o Butler and for one gig....not fair!!!

[bennymutant]

Brett is a personal hero of mine

When are Suede or The Tears getting back together?

[TheHarecat]

Living in a thought controlled British state, this is good as music gets. That's no insult chaps!

[hurricaneUK]

Drop the sixth form politics.

[TheHarecat]

Oops! Sorry, Comrade!

[oakey47]

I think the intro sounds similar to Bernard Butler's "Not Alone".

[ihtracks]

Yes, Suede & The Tears were just superb. Just a pity they couldnt carry on.

[elebelita]

amazing,  i love it

[cptramius]

So British......and the melancholy of Brett

[falconhead67]

god that wall of sound

[SuperMusicLover77]

classic + sky need tae bring back the amp channel!!!

[defkon99]

Suede/Tears For Life!!!

[happyhead64]

he is just amazing, even better with The Tears.

WOW.......just awesome.

[barniello]

the amp, what a station! wish it was still on sky nowadays

[theeldergoth]

I love his song writing.

[lalochuste]

Great song Thankx

[whiteonsolo]

I want suede :\

[wizzolf]

you and all others that post messages like this are fucking pieces of shit, no offense, unless you keep posting them

[AnimalNitrateInMind]

Let's take to the streets.

[nichosolano]

Amazing, just amazing.

[evaliaro]

this song is pure love, reminds me of suede's good times! :) is my favorite track from "here come the tears".

[slumpedfrog]

Superb. Another melodic guitar breeze. Anderson/Butler remain greatly underrated.

[sonicadv27]

this song is just great!...

[hughbartlett1]

Anderson is a great singer-songwriter, Butler is a great guitarist. Together they are brilliant.

[tanitity]

get back bernard.......pleaseTT

[bandyb]

brett and bernard need to get back together when they make music magic happens

[ajuk1]

It sounds like it could be a classic Suede track!

[zoolander78]

That is in large down to Bernard Butler.

[minastirith]

except his solo stuff doesn't sound like this.

brett still adds something, I doubt it's just as simple as who sounds better when singled out.

[lloydsk]

I havent heard it but according to wikipedia it was one of the most critically acclaimed albums to come out of the UK that year

[DrizzleLightBlue]

love this song... guess we're all refugees.

(fuck, he looks like alex kapranos sometimes...)

[barbarossaUK]

Alex Kapranos looks like him you mean

[DrizzleLightBlue]

well yeah... for me, is viceversa =)

[InkyUK]

)) No, Kapranos does sometimes.))

[RichardMolko]

i fucking love this song!! and i have loved suede since 1994!!

however, the album this came from was shit :(

[barbarossaUK]

It was a pretty impressive album actually you cock jockey

[RichardMolko]

ok. so you like the album. i do not. the world would be a very boring place if we all had the same taste wouldn't it? you should embrace divercity. instead you choose to throw insults at people you don't even know.

very mature for a 33 yr old. me thinks you are actually 14 & are using someone elses account!

[BettieRazorblade]

I love this song, i had heard of suede at this point but i think it was probably more through this song than anything else that got me into suede. Love suede, love the tears, but suede are kings.

[reniisgod]

Tune!

[Gingey1SmallBrother]

I didn't know brett anderson and Bernard Butler did something other than suede, good song but i prefer Suede

[ullerika]

Love this song!

[barbarossaUK]

PLEASE PLEASE do another album.

[hippie1959]

Just replayed the lp for the first time in a whil. All great songs. Now Bretts done his solo lp let's hope the Tears do another.

[Tomatoizm]

Good God I love this! \o/

I love Brett wherever he goes! PIF! - an underrated GENUIS! --to bad not many people appreciate his songs, from Suede to Tears to his solo..

[musicalwaysGMS]

fucking amazing song...

[myloveep]

Brett is not young anymore,but we have only one Brett Anderson in the world.He is a magician more than a man.

[stromovaveverka]

very nice words:)

[HOTROD213]

@myloveep - actually the singer of the donnas is also named brett anderson- and she is HAWT!

[stonerose99]

bought the CD single for this in Asda this morning for £0.10 !!!!

bargain of the year so far.

[jediray77]

hope they release another album , they were great live , just like having the real suede back

[c3leste]

amo the tears!!

[twiginthewind]

Aww... One thing's sure though. Brett & Bernard together make magic. Alone they're missing "the other half".

As for the rest of the conversation, I think I badly missed it... What the heck is it about?

[johnnysane]

It only seems wrong if you're the type to wear a swastika or a white hood.

Skin colour is about as important as hair & eye colour. Is it wrong for brunettes to kiss redheads? What about green-eyed people kissing blue-eyed people? It's all the same.

You're ignorant, and a bigot; go back to your inbreeding and leave the normal people alone.

[artyfacto]

GO TO HELL YOU RACIST NAZI BASTARD

[johnnysane]

Racial tolerance has nothing to do with communism or being a 'traitor.' I bet you froth at the mouth when anyone mentions that those minorities fight for your right to spout ignorant redneck bigotry, don't you?

Interestingly, making death threats is qualified as terrorism. Of course, people like legioncondor have been labelled terrorists for years (some of us call them the KKK).

[beautifulrain]

brett is kissing his gf in this video and she is black.

what was your point?

[vigimael]

What a shame that this person ranks among The Tears' fans. What do you think of Lovers, then?

[talktal]

you're an idiot. isn't brett's long time gf indian? you have a lot to learn, little man.

[scotsportspl]

dont think that guy got the point of the song or the video did he...

[sapoteto]

Die GAYCONDOR Die!!! Racist whore.

[Charonic]

Shut the fuck up you racist bitch. The world be a better place if people like you were extinct.

[RainDreamer13]

beautiful lyrics and amazing video...the tears are an amazing band!

[ganglionawry]

"Not bad"?! Shame on you, Justin, young mucker! This is verging on Berlin Philharmonic! (Orchestra: your next step toward enlightenment - once you've learnt to appreciate The Tears' brilliance) %") C'mon - this is beautiful. If you haven't got anything whole-hearted to say, don't say anything at all - that's my motto. Well, really, "WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING?!" is more my maxim - but I doubt you're ready for the maniacal world of Hazil Adkins. Excuse me, I'm rambling... %")

[noiseareus]

The best pop guitar player ever, go on Bernie!

[autobritish]

I like the song but i have to admit Suede was better. I'm kinda impressed how good Brett looks in spite the fact that he's almost 40(probably 48 when this video came out)

[ganglionawry]

Loved TRAA-AAH-ASH - & The Drowners - but this is another notch up. Suuu-fuckin-perb! %")

[almofan89]

Great song. Quite similar to Obsessions. I miss the music channel 'The Amp'

[RaycerXray]

When Anderson and Butler are together they make musical magic. Separate they kind of suck.

[Terramax]

Doesn't even compare to Trash or The Drowners

[barbarossaUK]

Fuck off

[Terramax]

Don't be rude, child!

[geoswish]

YEAH! Anderson come back!

[porro]

This song is awesome!
