“Suzie” by Of Empires – A Song Feature

      Of Empires released a rocker with their single “Suzie.” The Brighton, UK band discussed the track thus:

  ‘Suzie’ was pulled from the wreckage of a tumultuous year for Of Empires, the band comprised of Jack Fletcher (vocals), Matthew Berry (lead guitar), Liam Bewey (bass), and George Le Page (drums). Fletcher, the band’s principal lyricist, experienced a break-up from his long-term partner. This resulted in the disbanding of the flat where he and Berry lived, which had tripled up as gig space and party HQ.

  It was a painful, drawn-out fission that saw Fletcher step onto a carousel of alcohol and drugs, with a pronounced mental deterioration following quickly behind.  Music was both vent and respite and there’s a claustrophobic intensity underpinning these tracks that smack of a man trying to clear out the space between his head.

Lyrics of “Suzie” by Of Empires

Should have seen it coming

That time in your room

Helped you with your moving

I used to like the view

But I gotta keep on moving

So strike me dear Suzie

I remember what you told me

When I come around,

When I come around

Suzie, it's what you do to me

Suzie, it's what you do to me

Words you said are in my hands

Think it's kinda strange

I'm not the man you think I am

So don't call me again

But I gotta keep on moving

So strike me dear Suzie

I remeber what you told me

When I come around

When I come around

Suzie, it's what you do to me

Suzie, it's what you do to me

I used to like the view

The way it's supposed to be

I used to like the view

It's what you do to me

Suzie, it's what you do to me

Suzie, it's what you do to me

But I gotta keep on moving

So strike me dear Suzie

'Cause I remember what you told me

When I come around,

When I come around
