"Bleed" is a Cerys Matthews and Mark Roberts song, and it turned up on Way Beyond Blue, the debut album the Welsh band Catatonia released in 1996. Paul Sampson produced it and also engineered and mixed it, so the whole job sat in one pair of hands.
The album itself played like a round-up of the band's early days: only five of its songs were new, with the rest having already come out on Catatonia's early EPs and singles in other versions, which is why plenty of fans treated it as more or less a compilation. It also carried the band's first top 40 hit, "You've Got a Lot to Answer For".
