About The Record:

Easily, by Suede, is a folk, world, and country album, marking her debut in the pop/jazz vocal scene. The album features 10 tracks, including a notable cover of Julie Gold’s From A Distance, released two years before Bette Midler’s Grammy-winning version, highlighting Suede’s early contribution to the song’s legacy. Other tracks like Wait A Little While, Caressing Me, and No Regrets showcase her emotive vocal style, blending introspective lyrics with melodic warmth. Described as a cult favorite on Bandcamp, the album is praised for its sincerity and has been compared to a mix of Adele, Diana Krall, and Bette Midler, reflecting Suede’s versatile appeal. While not a commercial blockbuster, its historical significance lies in its early adoption of From A Distance, cementing Suede’s place in the folk-pop niche. No hit singles are explicitly noted for this album in the provided sources, as it was more of a niche release rather than a chart-topping record.
