Can't See Me

Can't See Me

"Can't See Me" is a song by Ian Brown, released as a single from his debut solo album "Unfinished Monkey Business". It was released in June, 1998, and rose to #21 on the United Kingdom charts.

In an interview with "Making Music" in 1998, Brown spoke about the song:

:"It came from Mani sitting down with his portastudio and coming up with a bassline, but we only found out last week that Reni doesn't actually play on it - it's a breakbeat Mani sampled. I thought it was a sample Reni took from the studio that Mani played to, but it was actually a breakbeat.

:"I've got a big pillowcase of tapes at home of Roses live shows and rehearsals and stuff, and I was just going through them one day and I found this bassline and remembered it. So I phoned him up, said, 'Can I put some Iyrics over this for my record ?' and he said, 'Course you can'."

This track refers to an incident when Brown saw Squire in a village in Hale, not long after the split of the band. According to this story, Brown waved to Squire, but Squire hid behind a newspaper and would not acknowledge him.
