Turin Brakes are a modern folk pop duo comprising two friends Olly Knights and Gale Paridjanian, hailing from Balham, London, signed to the Source label. Turin Brakes have often been compared to many of the New Acoustic Movement's bands spawned in the late 90's such as Elbow, Starsailor, I Am Kloot (who actually were a support band for Turin Brakes on their Ether Song tour) and the Norwegian band the Kings of Convenience. Their debut album "The Optimist LP" (2001) was nominated for the Mercury Prize that same year. In 2003 "Ether Song" got to #3 in the UK album charts and spawned a Top 5 single "Pain Killer". Further commercial success was not achieved.

So Long (LA Demo Version) Lyrics
Turin Brakes
It has the night crash landed again
Your turbulence is wicked
Woke up we're walking on a disappeared floor
We're back against the wall
What does it mean, you're lying so close to me
Your gravity is wicked
It has the night my boat out to sea
Electricity is crazy
It's been so long since I've seen you
You haven't changed, you haven't changed your way
It's not true
It's been so long since I've seen you
You haven't changed, you haven't changed your way
It's not true
Why are you turning my water to germs
Your miracles are empty
In your bowl their is no fruit
But your nature is so heavy
What does it mean you're lying so close to me
Your gravity is wicked
It has the night my boat out to sea
Electricity is crazy
It's been so long since I've seen you
You haven't changed, you haven't changed your way
It's not true
It's been so long since I've seen you
You haven't changed, you haven't changed your way
It's not true
La na na na na
La na na na
La na na na
La na na na na
La na na na
La na na na
It's been so long since I've seen you
You haven't changed, you haven't changed your way
It's not true
It's been so long since I've seen you
You haven't changed, you haven't changed your way
It's not true
