1. A British roc… Read Full Bio ↴There are multiple groups using the name "Strangelove".
1. A British rock band
2. A British hip-hop group
The dark side of the '90s Britpop revival, Bristol's Strangelove married Patrick Duff's deep, lovelorn croon to a spider's web of glistening guitar lines which Radiohead held as an early influence.
The poetic, purple wine-tinged grace of their first two drug infused albums has not dated in the intervening years and while their final eponymous release suffered from the tensions tearing the band apart, their legacy of Bad Seeds/Doors inspired epics and frantically crawling the walls poetry endures.
Great B-sides too.
Following the demise of the band in 1998:
Patrick Duff went solo - eventually releasing the album "Luxury Problems" in 2005 on the EMI imprint Harvest.
Guitarist Alex Lee joined Suede briefly for their swansong release "A New Morning" before cementing his place in the live Placebo line-up.
While the remaining members Joe Allen (bass), Julian Pransky-Poole (guitar) and John Langley (drums) formed Saturation Point.
At the time of writing (August 2007) Duff is currently prepping his second solo release with the assistance of Lee.

Strangelove Lyrics

'Til I will reach your side
And cross this space that is between us
See the angels in your eyes
I miss you in the laughter of the river
I miss you in the evening skies
I miss you at the moment of my waking
And when I dream I pray for wings to fly
Got a lot of love to bring back this time
I'll love you more than this 'til I die
And you make me alive
You make me alive
Feel the pain of all the days now
Of all the days we spent apart
I remember how I love to watch you sleeping
I've kept your words all safe and warm and dry
I wish that you were here to see the sunrise
I wish that you were here to stop these nights
When I whisper out your name into the silence
How I wish how I pray for wings to fly
Got a lot of love to bring back this time
Got a lot of love to bring back to your side
You know our love will make everything alright
You know our love will make everything alright
Everything alright
Everything alright
Everything alright
Couldn't love you more than this is all I know
Couldn't love you more than this all the angels told
All the angels told
All the angels told
