In fact, Suede were part of the 'Big Four' in Britpop alongside Oasis, Blur and Pulp.
And while Oasis fans are gearing up to see the Gallagher brothers reunite for the first time in decades from tonight, one lucky Britpop fan got some one on one time with Suede frontman Brett Anderson.
Taking to Instagram to share a selfie with the 57-year-old singer, the delighted fan wrote: "YOU GUYS I just spent the time in the Eurostar passport/security line talking to BRETT ANDERSON FROM SUEDE who is easily like, top five nicest people I've ever met and also HE LOOKS PERFECT?????
