Biography

An Australian dance/rock group. Had a hit in 2003 with a reworking of INXS's "Need You Tonight"; retitled "One Of My Kind"; but were unable to follow the success of this song until 2005; when with the addition of singer/actress Natalie Bassingthwaighte on vocals they scored a massive hit with "Voodoo Child". (Guitarist Tim Henwood and Drummer Cameron McGlinchey were then added to the lineup for live shows). Further success followed with the singles "Way To Go" and "Watching You" reaching the top 10; although they experienced something of a backlash from critics in Australia (who felt the group had "sold out" and that Bassingthwaighte -- well known for her role on popular soap opera "Neighbours" -- had been added to the lineup more to generate publicity than for her musical abilities). Media overexposure, the departure of founding member Steve D, a tour with manufactured pop group Girlband and some less-than-spectacular live performances from Bassingthwaighte did little to dispel these critics; but "Voodoo Child" managed to repeat its success across Europe. Natalie left the band on the 25th of June, 2008. Cameron also left the same year. Tim Henwood returned as guitarist on the 13th of August, 2009, replacing Danny Spencer who had assumed the role in his absence. On the 14th of November, 2009, Melinda 'Mindi' Jackson was recruited as the new lead singer along with Peter Marin as the new drummer.

LYRICS

Verse 1
You know we're fallin' to zero
Hurtin' much more than it did before
I'm always playing the hero
Cleaning your mess as you walk out the door

I'm counting things'll change now
Taking it back where it all began
Don?t like this merry-go-round
Gotta believe, believe we can

Chorus

We're coming home we're coming home
You know it's now or never

No afterglow this time I know
But I'm feelin' kinda better

We're coming home we're coming home
You know it's now or never

This time I know, this time I know
It's going on forever

Verse 2

I'm counting down to zero
Diggin' my heels in the dirt again
You're not a superhero
Saving the world to the bitter end

I think it's time that you knew
I'm seeing it all now in black and white
I'd do it all to save you
Changing the world ain't gonna make it right

Chorus

Bridge
See me walk away
You know it's now or never
See me walk away
I'm feelin' kinda better

Chorus
