Didn't I try To love her?
Didn't I paint Pictures of her?
Didn't I try To change?
I shouldn't have bothered.
Didn't I buy The ocean for her?
Didn't I wear The colour
Didn't I feel The wind?
Didn't I bleed?
She is strange
And sorrow.
She is Like cherry blossom.
She is The Empress.
Didn't I kneel Before her?
Didn't I follow Her orders?
Didn't I clean Her shit?
Didn't I fall?
Didn't I climb The ladder?
Didn't I smile For the cameras?
Didn't I feel The wind?
Didn't I bleed
She is strange And sorrow.
She is Like cherry blossom.
She is The Empress.
She is strange And sorrow.
With lips Like cherry blossom.
She is The Empress

Brett Anderson (nato Brett Lewis Anderson il 26 maggio 1967) è un cantautore e musicista britannico, noto soprattutto come frontman del gruppo new wave Suede. Nato a Londra, Anderson ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale negli anni '80, formando i Suede con Mat Osman nel 1989. Il loro debutto omonimo del 1993 ha riscosso un enorme successo commerciale e critico, consacrando il gruppo come una delle band più importanti della scena britannica degli anni '90. Anderson è noto per la sua voce distintiva, le sue performance teatrali e i suoi testi introspettivi che esplorano temi di amore, perdita, identità e l'esperienza umana. Dopo lo scioglimento dei Suede nel 2003, Anderson ha intrapreso una carriera solista, pubblicando diversi album di successo. Nel 2010, ha riunito i Suede per un tour mondiale, segnando il ritorno del gruppo sulla scena musicale. Tra le canzoni più rappresentative di Brett Anderson e dei Suede ricordiamo "Animal Nitrate", "Beautiful Ones", "The Drowners" e "Trash".
