Argh noes, I thought at the time that it was the weakest single off that album and feared it was the sign of terrible things to come. Sadly, that seems to have been the case. Even the b-sides, which were better, still didn't redeem it much. I mean, I remember being hugely disappointed by 'The Wild Ones' but at least it was backed with the awesome 'Modern Boys'! And closely followed (unless my brain deceives me) by 'New Generation'.

Trust me, I was itching to display some Suede love but I couldn't bring myself to tick a song I'd slated for ages, now could I? Just to make a point? I mean, what would that make me?
