Released in 1994 as the second single from Dog Man Star, The Wild Ones is often regarded as one of Suede’s finest moments — a sweeping, romantic ballad that Brett Anderson himself has described as the band’s best song. Built on lush instrumentation and aching vocals, it captures a sense of longing and cinematic beauty that has made it a fan favourite for decades.
The B-side, Modern Boys, offers a more understated but equally evocative counterpoint, with its reflective mood and lyrical nostalgia adding depth to the single’s overall atmosphere.
