Inbetweener - The Best of Sleeper. Sleeper, fronted by singer-songwriter Louise Wener, hit the charts in 1995 on the wave of Britpop, delivering three top 10 albums over the four years and a succession of 8 hit singles, ‘Inbetweener’ was their second single, but charting at number 16 in January 1995, it was the one that brought them to the fore. Further top 20 singles ‘What Do I Do Now’, ‘Sale Of The Century’, ‘Nice Guy Eddie’ and ‘Statuesque’ showed Wener to be an acutely observant and perceptive lyricist, with a band that had a knack for knocking out punchy, melodic indie-rock.
