Placebo - Because I Want You Single Review

Placebo
Because I Want You
Single Review

Placebo are one of those bands whose early success continues to dog their career. Pearl Jam never surpassed Ten, Feeder have never come close to Polythene and Placebo, like it or not, had their finest hour with Nancy Boy and their first, self titled album. This is a good single. All the Placebo hallmarks are there – the perfect pop chorus, the distinctive vocal, the lot. But do you really need it in your collection? Not really. It's just more of the same. And not even close to Nancy Boy….
