Biography

Birmingham, UK-based band, founded in 1990 and made up of former members of [a=The Boys (24)], [a=Echo Base (2)] and [a=The Fanatics (2)]. [a306224] has been [a=Paul Weller]'s regular guitarist since the early 90s. [a466347] (the only member not from Birmingham) has also played bass for Paul in the past, and despite his fall out and split from O.C.S. in 2003, he carried on with Weller until 2008. He has also played for The Who in recent times (Live 8 being the most high profile). Simon and Oscar have toured (and released one live album) together as an acoustic duo. Their 2004 Glastonbury Acoustic Tent set featured Steve as a special guest. Their recording studio (also the title of their second album and short-lived own record label) "Moseley Shoals", in Moseley, Birmingham is a deliberate homage to the famous Muscle Shoals studio in America. Dan Sealey and Andy Bennett replaced Damon Minchella in 2003 and remained a permanent fixture in the band for over a decade (even playing on the "Moseley Shoals 15th Anniversary Tour", which they didn't originally record on). Following their departures, Raymond Meade was added as bass player.

LYRICS

And it's coming forty past the hour
In the midnight lonely freezing hour
With my insides churning in the gutter
And I'm waiting forty past midnight
Catching rain in the soda light
Won't you come and call me to your window?
Please don't leave me waiting on the corner

We could have the best time
If you lighten up your life

With my pockets holey in the inside
With my bus ride rolling in the gutter
But if you would only light your lamp light
Then I would be here than any other

Well I'm waiting forty past midnight
Catching cold in the pouring rain
Won't you come and take me to your door
So I can take myself home again

We could have the best time
If you lighten up your life

When I'm waiting standing on the corner
And the soda light begins to flicker
And it's getting forty past the hour
And I think I won't see what I figure

Well I'm waiting freezing on the inside
Staring up at your window pane
If you won't come see me this evening
I can see myself here again

We could have the best days
If you lighten up your life
