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

I never saw it as the start, its more a change of heart
Rapping on the windows, whistling down the chimney pot
Blowing off the dust in the room where I forgot
I laid my plans in solid rock
Stepping through the door like a troubadour whiling just an hour away
Looking at the trees on the roadside feeling its a holiday
You and I should ride the coast and wind up in our favourite coats just miles away

Roll a number write another song like Jimmy heard the day he caught the train

He sipped another rum and coke and told a dirty joke
Walking like Groucho sucking on a number 10
Rolling on the floor with the cigarette burns walked in
I'll miss the crush and I'm home again

Stepping through the door with the night in store whiling just an hour away
Step into the sky in the starbright feeling its a brighter day
You and I should ride the coast and wind up in our favourite coats just miles away

Roll a number write another song like Jimmy heard the day he caught the train

You and I should ride the tracks and find ourselves just wading through tomorrow
And you and I when we're coming down we're only getting back and you know I feel no sorrow

When you find that things are getting wild don't you want days like these
When you find that things are getting wild don't you want days like these
When you find that things are getting wild don't you need days like these
When you find that things are getting wild don't you want days like these
Like these
