Valora este álbum

Sobre el álbum

La discografía de Suede se enriquece con "Sci-Fi Lullabies", una colección de caras B que, lejos de ser un simple recopilatorio de descartes, es considerada por muchos fans como uno de sus mejores trabajos. De hecho, este álbum doble demuestra la increíble prolificidad y el altísimo nivel de calidad de la banda durante sus primeros años. Muchas de las canciones aquí presentes son tan buenas o incluso mejores que las de sus álbumes de estudio.

El primer disco recopila las caras B de la era de Bernard Butler, mostrando la increíble química creativa que existía entre él y Brett Anderson. Canciones como "My Insatiable One" y "To the Birds" son clásicos por derecho propio. El segundo disco presenta el material grabado con Richard Oakes, con joyas como la enérgica "Europe Is Our Playground" y la emotiva "Sadie".

La colección es un testamento de una época en la que el single como formato artístico era primordial, y las bandas a menudo guardaban algunas de sus mejores ideas para el reverso del vinilo. "Sci-Fi Lullabies" es una pieza esencial en la biografía de Suede, un tesoro oculto que demuestra que su genio no se limitaba a los álbumes oficiales.

  5. The Big Time4:28

    Letra

    I watch the slow hand Kill the day,I see my starring mode take away, I watch the skyline,for him to come And when he comes alone,we'll be gone. And we'll go into the city,into the light We'll be there in the headlines, in care of the night Cause this is the big time this is the way Now he's in the big time he'll show you the way This is the big time This is the way Now he's in the big time And your in the way...
  6. High Rising5:49

    Letra

    You'll hide among the covers and wave as the aeroplanes go by There's nothing to say when you sleep all day but "bye bye". Your mind will find another and that's where the days have gone And all you can hear is a stereo somewhere playing a pig of a song And you'll know her know her when she comes. When you turn the light out light out she'll come. She called you from across the city you hired a car to crawl, But with the high rise still in your eyes you wonder who's out there at all. And you'll know her, know her, when she comes. When you turn the light out, light out, she'll come. When you turn the light out, she'll come. Stop making me older, start making me new.
  7. The Living Dead2:48

    Letra

    If I was the wife of an acrobat... Could of had it all...Could of had it all... Where's all the money gone? - I'm talking to you, All up the whole in your arm, is the needle a much better screw? But oh, what will you do alone? Cos I have to go. Where is this life of fun that you promised me? Nothing here works but your works and I mean it I have to leave But oh, what will you do alone? Cos I have to go. If I was the wife of an acrobat would I look like the living dead, boy? You're on the wire and can't get back,Let's talk about the living dead Could have had a car, could have had it all, Could have walked in the sky but we stare at the wall. I know where the money's gone - I know what you do Cos I've seen the hole in your arm and the needle's a much better screw but oh, what will you do alone? Cos I have to go.
  8. My Dark Star4:26

    Letra

    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 tattoed tit 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 cemetery eyes that say Oh, how my dark star will rise, ...and she will rise.
  9. Killing Of A Flash Boy4:07

    Letra

    All the white kids shuffle to the heavy metal stutter And go shaking on the scene like killing machines And they know that when she's stacked up top She'll be a sucker for the shotgun show Shaking obscene like the killing machines here we go It's the same old show, He's a killer of a flash boy oh He's a killer he's a killer he's a flashboy oh Oh if you shake your fake tan thru aerosol land you'll know That you'll suffer for your sex by the caravanettes oh no And that sh*tter with the pout won't be putting it about no more oh shaking obscene like a killing machine he we go It's the same old show, he's a killer he's a flash boy oh He's a killer he's a flash boy oh...oh and Athena loves your body So think of the sea my darling Think of the sea as you murder me It's the same old show, he's a killer, he's a flash boy oh This is the killing of a flash boy oh...

    Letra

    Coast to coast Side to side Shines the minds of fine enlightend minds coast to coast We are only youngbut we style our future with a cattle gun We are idle rich so we smile for tomorrow with a bitch of an itch Cause when the fire light shocks like a cop shop pyre we'll jack the politics for premonition and fire and we'll move like Nuryev at night Coast to coast Side to side Shines the light of fine enlightened minds Coast to coast We are only young but we style out future in the shadow of guns We are not idle rich so we smile for tomorrow with a bitch of an itch cause when the stylized kick of the filmstar whip, cracks down on the millions, cracks the kids on the hips we'll be moving like Nuryev at night Coast to coast Side to side shines the light of fine enlightened minds Coast to coast Side to side feel the steel that shines outside the blinds Coast to coast Side to side blades engraved with babies' nameswhile pylons hide the suicide Coast to coast Side to sideshines the light of fine enlightened minds Coast to coastSide to side feel the steel that shines outside the blinds Coast to coast Side to side blades engraved with babies' names...

    Come unto me my winter son We could lie on the rails And when the morning comes We'll be miles away Miles away Slipping away while the city sleeps Running away from this cruel disease We're miles away Miles away Modern boys Modern boys Hand in hand, sick of the fear Chasing away all the hungry years We're the modern boys Come unto me my sickly thing We could lie on the rails But to really win We'll just drive away Drive away Yes the world calls my international So let the decades die Let the parties fall And we'll be miles away Miles away 'Cause we'll be living like Modern boys Modern boys Hand in hand, sick of the fear Chasing away all the hungry years We're the modern boys Modern boys Into the night, under the stars Jumping the lights in the silent cars He's on your left, I'm on your right It's so easy in the concrete night
