Suede. Live. The Two of Us

This was one of my first ventures into production. Following on from our collaboration between Suede and Derek Jarman at the Clapham Grand, July 1993, fellow Jarman collaborators (and amazing directors) David Lewis and Andy Crabb and I were commissioned by the band to produce films for the Dog Man Star tour, 1994. These films were then incorporated into our concert film that was subsequently released as "Introducing The Band", and this is one of my favourite songs. Fans will no doubt spot the two lines of changed lyrics - an 'in joke' amongst the band. (nb: it might be a YouTube compression issue or some other playback issue, but the original video is perfectly in sync, however it appears here.)

This is a truly great song. The best version of this song I've ever heard was by a string quartet. By comparison, this is amateurish, uncoordinated and out of tune! (And not for effect/affect.) I can't believe people can't hear it.

Each to their own obviously, lol.

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

@CocaineTrashup

You sound like you're the exact same person as me. It's actually a tad startling...

[iristheblue]

@isherwood Do you have a link, by any chance? I would like to hear/look at it. And you are lucky to have a good ear for music, because before you said this one is out of tone, I didn't pay any attention to the fact that it actually is )))
