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

We can remember swimming in December
Heading for the city lights in 1975
We share in each other
Nearer than father
The scent of a lemon drips from your eyes
We are the people that rule the world
A force running in every boy and girl
All rejoicing in the world
Take me now, we can try
We lived an adventure
Love in the Summer
I followed the sun 'til night
Reminiscing other times of life
For each every other
The feeling was stronger
The shock hit eleven
I got lost in your eyes
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
Can you remember and humanize?
It was still where we'd energized
Lie in the sand and visualize
Like it's '75 again
We are the people that rule the world
A force running in every boy and girl
All rejoicing in the world
Take me now, we can try
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
I know everything about you
know everything about me
Know everything about us
I know everything about you
know everything about me
Know everything about us
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
I can't do well when I think you're gonna leave me
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now?
Can't you be believing now?
I can't do well when I-
