Waking Up (song)

"Waking Up" is a song by the Britpop group Elastica. It was released as a single in February 1995 and reached #13 on the UK Singles Chart. It preceded the release of their self-titled debut album, which came out the following month.
The song, written about being an underachiever, received positive critical reviews. However, it also prompted a lawsuit from the publishers of The Stranglers, who claimed that Elastica took the song's riff from The Stranglers' "No More Heroes". The case was settled out of court.
==Background==
"Waking Up" is a song about being an underachiever,〔Krishnaswami, Ravi. ("Poole, Elastica Create New Sounds in Old Scene" ). ''The Cavalier Daily'', 30 March 1995.〕 in which writer-vocalist Justine Frischmann "exorcises her personal malaise" with the lines: "I'd work very hard but I'm lazy/I've got a lot of songs but they're all in my head/I'll get a guitar and a lover who pays me/If I can't be a star I won't get out of bed."〔Davies, John. ("Elastica" ). ''ThirdWay'', April 1995, p. 30.〕 Damon Albarn contributed keyboards to the song.〔Harris, John. ''(Britpop!: Cool Britannia and the Spectacular Demise of English Rock )'' (Da Capo Press, 2004), p. 197.〕
The single was released in February 1995 with the b-side "Gloria".〔 "Waking Up" was included as the 11th track on Elastica's 1995 self-titled album,〔 and an alternate version was included on 2001's ''The Radio One Sessions''.〔Hermes, Will. ("Reissues" ). ''SPIN'', August 2003, p. 115.〕
