(1) Project of former Hüsker Dü member Bob Mould.
(2) A Korean girl-pop group.
(3) A Japanese visual-kei group (Ｓｕｇａｒ).
(4) A Copenhagen producer, DJ and co-founder of Fast Forward Productions.
(5) An Australian psy-trance producer/artist
(6) A rockband from Den Bosch, The Netherlands.
Sugar (1) was formed by Bob Mould after the breakup of Hüsker Dü, and conceived as having a similar sound, though with Mould as the sole leader. As such, the band was a trio with Mould on guitar and voice, David Barbe (formerly of Mercyland) on bass, and Malcolm Travis (formerly with Zulus and Human Sexual Response) on drums. The band released three studio albums and a collection of live tracks and B-sides before breaking up in 1995.
SUGAR (2) (슈가) was a 4 member moderately successful girl pop group originating from South Korea. The group began in 2001 with their first album Tell Me Why that included the two singles Sweet Love and Tell Me Why. Afterwards a year later they released their sophomore album Shine which was more successful than their first. Like other fellow Korean acts SUGAR emerged into the Japanese market with their first two singles GO THE DISTANCE and All My Loving after their second Korean album.
Then soon afterwards Jung Eum, a member of Sugar decided to leave the group after their mini album Secret was released. Replacing her with Haleen, SUGAR moved on to release two more singles and their sophomore Japanese album. Then moving back to their roots SUGAR released their 3rd Korean album Sweet Lips one year after their mini album. Yet after this release Soo Jin announced that she would also be leaving SUGAR to concentrate on an acting career.
With the release of SUGAR's sophomore Japanese album COLORS 4 WISHES, each member decided to be a solo musician. Then on December 20, 2006 KBS World Radio announced that SUGAR would disband at the end of 2006. 아유미 (Ayumi/Ahyoomee) has since become a member of the SMTOWN family.
Sugar (3) (Ｓｕｇａｒ; シュガー) was a Japanese Visual/Nagoya Kei rock group made up of ex-Vall'na racill vocalist Loki, SIZNA (Gu.), 殊 (Koto; Ba.) and 篤人 (Atsuto; Dr.). The group started in mid 2004, and in 2005 they released their first single. Unfortunately, 殊 (Koto) left the group on December 29th, 2007 after their live at Shibuya CLUB QUATTRO. In January Shingo joined the band as their new bassist. In March 2008 they released their first full album, SWEETEST.
Only four months after the departure of 殊 (Koto), a newsletter was sent to fans explaining that they were to disband. This was due to musical differences between the members and they felt they were unable to continue on as a band. They also announced the Sugar LAST ONEMAN TOUR , a three day three-man event to be held prior to their final one-man tour. May 8th featured lynch. and Sel’m, DuelJewel and MaitoreiA on May 9th, and Ｍｏｒａｎ and ｂｏｏｇｉｅｍａｎ on the last date.
Their final release, titled Letters, came out on the 20th of May and was sold in advance, on May 8th, at the LAST ONEMAN TOUR [ epilogue ] at Takadanobada AREA. The final tour started May 15th at Sapporo KRAPS HALL and the final concert was at Shibuya O-East on the July 4th.

Sugar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bout them in a store on the avenue
Didn't mean to spend all the cash I had
The second that I saw them, I wanted them bad
When I got home and I tried them on
I noticed that the wingspan was way too long
Couldn't take them back, there was no return
Gee angel, won't you take these back?
Gee angel, gee angel, I need some slack
There's nothing in this world that I'd rather do
Than buy a wet of wings and fly away with you
Climbed up the mountain, observed the view
But angel wouldn't say what I had to do
Then angel flew away and left me standing there
I knew I couldn't fly, but I didn't care
The song "Gee Angel" by Sugar is a reflection of unfulfilled desires and the bittersweet consequences that result from them. The singer describes buying a pair of wings from a store on the avenue with money he/she didn't mean to spend, which represents impulsive and irrational behavior. The wings symbolize his/her aspirations for freedom and escape from the mundane aspects of life. However, after trying them on, the singer realizes that the wings are too big and impractical for actual use, and he/she cannot return them. This realization suggests that sometimes the things we desire may not be what they seem, and we may have to accept the consequences of our actions.
Despite the impracticality of the wings, the singer still yearns to fly away from it all and escape with an angel, representing a perfect companion or a symbol of spiritual guidance. The line "There's nothing in this world that I'd rather do than buy a set of wings and fly away with you" highlights the power of escapism and the allure of the unknown. The singer climbs a mountain with the angel, hoping for enlightenment or guidance, but is ultimately left alone and grounded, despite the initial illusion of flight.
In summary, "Gee Angel" is a cautionary tale about the importance of discernment when it comes to personal aspirations and the pursuit of freedom. It suggests that sometimes the things we desire may not deliver the happiness we anticipate, and we may have to deal with the consequences of our actions. The song ultimately speaks to the human condition of yearning for help, guidance, and escape from the mundane or oppressive aspects of life.

Got a set of wings that I couldn't use
I bought these wings from a store, but they're useless to me
Bout them in a store on the avenue
I purchased these wings from a store located on the street
Didn't mean to spend all the cash I had
I didn't intend to use up all my money for this purchase
The second that I saw them, I wanted them bad
As soon as I saw the wings, I desired them immensely
When I got home and I tried them on
After arriving at my place, I put on the wings
I noticed that the wingspan was way too long
I saw that these wings had an exceeding width
Couldn't take them back, there was no return
Since they were non-refundable, I couldn't return these wings
I should have gotten more, I was feeling burned
I regretted not purchasing something else and felt disappointed
Gee angel, won't you take these back?
Hey angel, could you please take these wings from me?
Gee angel, gee angel, I need some slack
Please, angel, give me some lenience
There's nothing in this world that I'd rather do
I would rather do nothing more than fly away with a pair of wings
Than buy a wet of wings and fly away with you
I desire to obtain wings, then use them to fly with you
Climbed up the mountain, observed the view
I climbed up a mountain and gazed at the vista
But angel wouldn't say what I had to do
Angel didn't guide me on what I needed to do
Then angel flew away and left me standing there
Afterwards, angel took off and left me alone
I knew I couldn't fly, but I didn't care
I understood that it was impossible for me to fly, but I wasn't concerned
