Sleeper recorded three studio albums: Smart, The It Girl and Pleased to Meet You. Their breakthrough song, "Inbetweener", featured a memorable video with Dale Winton, who was a popular icon among students at the time. The group is closely associated with Britpop; Wener was arguably, along with Elastica's Justine Frischmann, the movement's biggest female star. She was even something of a sex symbol. By the time Pleased to Meet You was released in 1997, Britpop was fading, as was the band's audience.

Stop Your Crying Lyrics

Sleeper

This man lives in the ocean
He puts his favourite clothes on
And drifts away day after day
And you cant hear me call
This man needs a direction
You want my blind affection
And Im not sorry that I came
I stayed too long thats all
And youre a bad habit
Glad of it
Im not so sure I can help you
Sad for it
Thanks for it
Im not so sure I can make you
Stop your crying its not helping
Stop your crying its no help
Did you still think that my love
Could make you special
Pulled me in on a high tide
How well you hid your flipside
It wont do to comfort you
Each time you cough or call
You think I wanted to use you
Complex issues just confuse you
You dont care youre unaware
How far these things can fall
