(4) A Copenhagen producer, DJ and co-founder of Fast Forward Productions.

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.

What You Want it to Be
Sugar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't know what to believe
And everything that you see
Don't you see what you need
It's what you want to believe
As you lie in the weeds
The lies get amplified and
It's what you want it to be
Take a look at my face
Don't you know I can see
You don't know what you want
I don't know what you need
It may be simple, but me
I don't have to deceive you
I don't have the time to
But what you're saying to me
Is what you want it to be
You've been talking in rhymes
You don't know what you mean
I can see through it all
Through the web that you weave
The lyrics of Sugar's song "What You Want it to Be" speak to the idea that people often shape and interpret reality based on what they want to believe rather than what is actually true. The opening lines describe the confusion that results from reading conflicting stories and witnessing conflicting events. The singer implies that despite all of this, people tend to filter information through their own biases and prejudices, shape it to fit their desires and expectations, and then present it in a way that supports their own narrative.
The chorus of the song emphasizes this idea, with the lyrics "It's what you want to believe, as you lie in the weeds. The lies get amplified and it's what you're saying to me. It's what you want it to be." The image of lying in the weeds suggests a kind of passivity, a willingness to be governed by forces beyond our control, rather than a proactive pursuit of truth. The lies we tell ourselves get amplified, turned into a kind of self-narrative that shapes our understanding of ourselves and the world around us.
The second verse addresses the idea that what people say they want and what they actually need are often very different things. The singer claims not to have the ability or inclination to deceive the listener, but also seems to suggest that it's ultimately up to the listener to figure out what they truly want and need. The song ends by admonishing the listener for talking in rhymes and weaving webs, suggesting that they are not being honest with themselves or others.
