I know nothing about them (I'm about to google) but I'm hooked on the 'wires' single thats in rotation on the radio. I downloaded the album 'tourist' and I'm liking what I hear. Anyone know more than I do?

Artist : Athlete

Title : Wires

You got wires, going in
You got wires, coming out of your skin
You got tears, making tracks,
I got tears, that are scared of the fact

Running down corridors through,
automatic doors
Got to get to you
Got to see this through
I seen hope is here
In a plastic box
I've seen christmas lights, reflect in your eyes

You got wires, going in
You got wires, coming out of your skin
There?s dry blood, on your wrist
Your dry blood, On my fingertip

Running down corridors through,
automatic doors
got to get to you
got see this through

First night of your life
Curled up on your own
Looking at me now
You would never know

I see it in your eyes
I see it in your eyes
You?ll be alright

I see it in your eyes
I see it in your eyes
You?ll be alright

Alright?..

Running down corridors through,
automatic doors
Got to get to you
Got to see this through
I see hope is here
In a plastic box
I've seen Christmas lights reflect in your eyes

Running down corridors through,
automatic doors
Got to get to you
Got to see this through
First night of your life
Curled up on your own
Looking at you now
You would never know

Neither do I at home but it's on at work you see?
Try to find it using kazaa or similar Schu', it's good.
Since discovered they are an english band, second album (the debut is dodgy), the 'wires' track is about his new born daughter and her spell in intensive care...the lyrics make sense now.

Wow, I'm stunned. I have been away working and junk like that and just had a few minutes to surf. D, the lyrics to Wires is so close to home for OLS and I with our own daughter. Shayla was a 7 week early Premie, and spent the first month of her life in icu. Half of it in a "Plastic box." She had plenty of wires and tubes. I will have to find more about the band now, thanks for shareing that bro.....................L

Thanks bro.................. And if it wasn't for the damn Salvation Army people and other civilians on the pier, the Caped Crusader could have gotten rid of that bomb a lot sooner.
