Donnez-moi la puissance


It seems impossible now, but in November 1996, now 14 years ago, Suede did a tour of France running over seven nights. They played towns like Strasbourg or Bordeaux. This issue of music magazine Magic! had Suede all over it. First we have the beautiful cover with two blue eyes staring at you. Page 2 is a full page ad for the French tour. The interview with Brett is done around themes like "Peter Saville", "USA" or "Image sophistiquée". Furthermore, there's a contest to win 20 vynil singles of Trash, and finally Coming Up is reviewed. The reviewer is comparing Suede to a cat with seven lifes.
