Biography

Taking their name from the J.G. Ballard novel that became a 1987 Steven Spielberg film, Australia's larger-than-life electro-glam-pop duo Empire of the Sun features [a138068]'s [a=Luke Steele] and [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Pnau]Pnau[/url]'s [a=Nick Littlemore]. Steele had previously worked with Pnau on "With You Forever," a track from the band's 2007 [url=http://www.discogs.com/release/1128309]self-titled third album[/url], and the pair enjoyed collaborating so much that they started their own project, drawing inspiration from the likes of [a=Phoenix] and [a=Daft Punk]. In fall 2008, Empire of the Sun released their debut album Walking On A Dream, which the musicians described as "a spiritual road movie." Featuring songs co-written by Pnau's other half, [a=Peter Mayes], the album went platinum in Australia. The Steele-led band performed live for the first time at the Parklife tour in September and October 2009, while Empire of the Sun garnered 11 ARIA award nominations including Album Of The Year and Single Of The Year. Live performance members include - Luke Steele – lead vocals, guitars, keyboards - Ian Ball – guitar - Olly Peacock – drums - Tony Mitolo - drums ( 2008-15) - Surahn Sidhu - guitar / bass / vocals ( 2008-15)

LYRICS

Phenomenal incredible emotion
Coursing through my veins tonight
I've never felt so alive
Don't delete her, let her see the light
Oh, are you running low?
Don't let go, let go
There's ways you know to save our fantasy
Through all of the good things
Don't let go, let go
There's ways you know
Always on my mind

Television superstition
Just a minute, who can we rely?
Just a minute, are we winning?
Always on my mind
Always on my mind
Just a minute, are we winning?

Impossible, I can't believe not coming down
Cosmic cellophane cool as ice
I've never felt so alive
Don't delete her, let her see the light

Oh, are you running low?
Don't let go, let go
There's ways you know to save our fantasy
Through all of the good things
Don't let go, let go
There's ways you know
Always on my mind

Television superstition
Just a minute, who can we rely?
Just a minute, are we winning?
Always on my mind

Television superstition
Just a minute, who can we rely?
Just a minute, are we winning?
Always on my mind

I was a vision
I was a television, record and rewind
I was a vision
I was a television, record and rewind
