This is possibly the only 'Sleeper' song I know.... I can't explain why I didn't explore any more of their music, on the strength of this song. "Inbetweener" came out in 1995 and was a hit in the UK. In fact, they had a string of UK hits along with three Top 10 albums. Louise Wener was the leading member and the male band members became known as "sleeperbloke's" for their anonymity because of the glamorous lead singer. Louise Wener turned to writing after the demise of Sleeper. She already has four novels and an autobiography under her belt. I've seen one of her novels at the Taupo library, but didn't borrow it... I can't explain that either.
