Song: Sugarfuel - remix by David Sylvian
Album: "Sleepwalkers" (2010)
Lyrics by David Sylvian
Music by Jean-Philippe Verdin (French music producer, multi-instrumentalist, DJ etc)
The original version features on the album "Bold" (2001) by Readymade FC

Comment by Sylvian on writing these lyrics:
"...it offered an opportunity to grapple with a more overt sexual theme than anything I'd attempted previously, as suggested by a vocal sample in the original track provided, a threateningly insistent 'I'm on your side'. So I took that as my point of entry and ran with it. I would love to write more on this subject should I find the right context. You're always aware of walking a thin line exploring sexuality with language alone."

  • A very Happy Birthday to David Sylvian today <3

  • After "Blemish" he seems to be going colder and sort of sarcastic somehow. Love it anyway. Thanks for posting this.

  • @300368ful My feelings are totally the opposite... I think he always puts so much emotion and wamth into his work. I have also listened and read many (maybe all) of his interviews and he always comes across as a genuine and kind person, never petty, never criticising or making fun of anyone (he criticises himself). Your comment about the video is very sweet, thank you so much :-)

  • I've been a fan since Japan, then mommy life took over and I've been out of the loop. Good to hear your smooth voice again Mr. Sylvian. Beautiful.

  • @gadgetjamz Thanks for watching. It's great that you're back on Sylvian's track... you have a lot of catching up to do, but it can be a very exciting journey :-)

see all
