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

Dragon lips I say goodbye
But baby don't you cry
Be to cool to ever be
With a tiger by your side
Money takes a single side
Paid my dues to move the tide
Caught the moonlight in my shoe
With a tiger by my side

Trekking through an open mind
I got a window in my spine
Felt the miracle in my stride over
Making music in my mind
I'm blending colours for the blind
Melt the pinnacle your times not over

Rabbit trips can take their time
But fun is fun and that's alright
Diving deep as whales sleep
Counting heroes on my feet
Widow in a falling star
Healing scars with my guitar
Sirens speak to apple tree
And the tiger plays a part

[ Empire Of The Sun Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
Seen about a million roads
I've done the bong to Tokyo
I've been a clone and had a little luck
Swam across the golden sea a certain price of levity
It brings us up and only makes us sleep
Television changing channels telling people wearing flannels
Culture shocking walkways to the shore
Even though I never know and even though I never know and even though I never want to know

Trekking through an open mind
I got a window in my spine
Felt the miracle in my stride over
Making music in my mind
I'm blending colours for the blind
Melt the pinnacle your times not over

Seen about a million roads
I've done the bong to Tokyo
I've been a clone and had a little luck
Swam across the golden sea a certain price of levity
It brings us up and only makes us sleep
Television changing channels telling people wearing flannels
Culture shocking walkways to the shore
Even though I never know and even though I never know and even though I never want to know
