"The Wild Ones" is the second single from the album Dog Man Star by English rock band Suede, released on 7 November 1994 through Nude Records.

[5] Albeit, the intro was recorded on a Dobro Resonator guitar on the roof of Butler’s father’s Saab outside Master Rock Studios.

While the band were putting the final touches to the album, producer Ed Buller felt that the song needed more work and offered new guitarist Oakes to play Hammond organ.

"[9] Music writer James Masterton was very favourable, writing: "Easily one of the greatest records the band will release in their entire career, The Wild Ones is a haunting ballad, sparsely produced and exploiting the quirks in Brett Anderson's voice to the full.

Semi-acoustic with violins and all, bad ass Brett recalls forgotten heroes like Ian McCulloch and Scott Walker.

As well as the early Bowie influence, he felt they incorporated the sound of U2, writing: "The band wears the changes well, creating a song that has more sustenance than previous works... the group deserve credit for credibly reinventing themselves.

"[13] John Robinson of NME said that "rather than loudly slapping its arse and screeching at us in a wobbly falsetto, ['The Wild Ones'] is full of a sort of quiet grandeur.

'The Wild Ones' is infantile and ultimately meaningless, with a calculated teeny-bopper yearning, and even the orchestral arrangements of Brian Gascoigne, of Scott Walker's Climate of Hunter fame, can't save it.
