Nureyev is Rudolf Nureyev, who was a famous Russian ballet dancer who defected.

Wasn't he gay and died of AIDS ? I'm not sure though.

"Sweet F.A." stands for sweet fuck-all, i.e. nothing.
Hope this helps...

I thought it was Love Spit Love that said that, about their album Sweet F. A.
Allegedly after one of the bandmembers' mother.

the p45 is a document which your employer gives you when you leave a company
which details your tax and national insurance contributions- you give it to
your new employer when you start. in this context, it refers to the
benefit-cheating activities of the type of wide-boy underclass that young men
is about. The song is pretty parochial, but as a brit young man myself I
recognise them- they´re presented very accurately ("Tony only reads Asian
Babes" -immortal lyric)!
Nureyev, meanwhile, was one of the greatest ballet dancers ever- hence "and
we moved like nureyev". He was also a homosexual, and the image of the
enigmatic homosexual, with the ballet dancer´s combination of great strength
and power (masculine) with delicacy and grace (feminine) makes him an ideal
icon for suede´s androgynous image and lyrics.
