I hate it when you become more famous than me


Even when tours were over, and the band was writing their next album, they kept being put on music magazine covers. This comes from a March 1994 issue of Vox. Brett was writing Dog Man Star at the time, and already feeling very confident about it, though he was slagged off be his ex-girlfriend Justine saying "that the media feeding frenzy had made it impossible for Suede to produce a strong second album". How wrong that view proved to be.

Brett isn't short of strong quotes as always. "A nation of fags, aren't we? That's what they think in America."
