By the way, is Olly a normal name there? Or maybe it's a short name? I've never heard it, but it sounds cool... :smug:

I want to know which TB Albums to buy. Any suggestions from the learned fans?

 

I'm like that manuel guy in Fawlty Towers "I know nothing" ;)

Well, they only have two albums: The optimist and Ether song.

Both are great. But if you have to choose one I'd recommend you The optimist, the first one.

But Ether song is as good as the other one. Yeah, you SHOULD buy both!! :D

definitely 'The Optimist LP'! I s'pose the song that got me into that album properly is track 2 -Underdog(Save Me). gorgeous and catchy. :)

Aaaaaaaah yeah! Underdog is fantabolous!!! But 'The road' is my fave one. I never get sick of it! :D

Do you think we are twin sisters and we were adopted by diff families?

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!TURIN BRAKES ROX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wow!!!! i cant express with words the musical orgasm i had..lol! seriously!, i cant stop listening underdog ( save me) that song is brilliant and the acoustic guitar solo blew my mind!!! Feeling oblivion is just a master piece!.. i love the acoustic guitar in that song.. its like a sweet backbeat ..soooo relaxing.... and the way the strumming goes along with the voice.. wow! Painkiller is a killer one! sounds a bit country but hell the guitar is amazing .. Mind over money was a sweet one. i love the tempo in that song! the road.. --no words here.. -just beautiful! :P

Too bad i couldnt download clear blue air & long distance :( stupid kazza. maybe u guys can send me that song one of these days :P

Anyway, thx noni and charlie! i think im a turin maniac now :P

:D :D :D :D :D :D

YAY! SUCH ENTHUSIASM! see? noni and moi have impeccable music taste. If you think those tracks are good, you should d/load 'Long Distance'. If you want a musical orgasm, you'll certainly get it with that song! :lol: Keep trying to d/load it along with 'Clear Blue Air'. It's GORGEOUS :D In fact, I will post the lyrics right now :smug: :cool: :lol:

 

CLEAR BLUE AIR

Naked and faking on a poorly lit stairway

Then we were getting down on a dance floor

Oh my love where did you go?

She turned her body and soul into...

 

Air... I need you like air

Water... I need you like water

 

I've been away for a very long time

The roads and their refuge,

Keep you out of my mind

Arise arise, I wanna take off and drive

And throw my arms into, the clear blue...

 

Air... I need you like air

Water... I need you like water

 

Here she comes,

Buzzing through my memory,

Here's the ghost,

Perfume trickles through the...

 

Air... I need you like air

Water... I need you like water

 

So try, try to reach me

Even if you can't see me

I'll be around under the clear blue air.

oooh 'Rain City' as well. lovely song, lovely lyrics :D

 

 

RAIN CITY

Opened my eyes, had a dream last night

That both my arms were broken,

Evening time.

Help me now or hold me down,

I feel the world is tumbling,

Spiralling down.

Oh my love I can't let go,

Something's wrong I can't let go,

Nature's cruel she laughs at me.

As I make my way through the century,

As I slowly turn to house dust,

Tumbling down.

The rain comes down like a victory,

In sheets of shining memory,

Over and over circling around.

Oh my love I can't let go,

Something's wrong I can't let go,

Nature's cruel she laughs at me.

Almost too much for my heart,

When it rains,

Oh tears my soul apart,

When it rains,

It rains so slowly

In the city where I'm from.

Thanks Noni & Charlie.

 

Me thinks some CD purchasing might be occuring quite soon ;) :D
