Turin Brakes is an English band, comprising original duo Olly Knights and Gale Paridjanian, and long term collaborators Rob Allum and Eddie Myer. They had a UK top 5 hit with their song "Painkiller (Summer Rain)". Since starting out in 1999, the band have sold around 1 million records worldwide. They are currently signed to Cooking Vinyl.
History
1999–2001: Formation and The Optimist LP
The band was started by longtime friends Knights and Paridjanian. The two met at a young age and spent much of their childhood together. Although they split after Knights went to film school and Paridjanian attempted to form a band in Toronto, Canada, they soon reunited and collaborated on what would later become their first EP, The Door, which was eventually released through Anvil Records in 1999 as a limited vinyl release. This led to the band attracting the attention of larger record labels. Source Records would eventually release two more EPs, The State of Things EP and Fight or Flight, prompting NME to proclaim "Turin Brakes inhabit a space which is entirely their own, fully formed and brutally emotive... give them the devotion they deserve."

Turin Brakes - Running Up That Hill (@KateBushMusic cover, acoustic)
“We ended up recording this song after Olly’s kids came face to face with Joseph Quinn / Eddie the latest star of #StrangerThings in their local newsagents in South London. We were so caught up in their mind blown enthusiasm we went round the corner to our studio and recorded this version of #RunningUpThatHill. Happy no. 1 to @KateBushMusic!

Lyrics 'Running Up That Hill' by #katebush
It doesn't hurt me
Do you want to feel how it feels?
Do you want to know, know that it doesn't hurt me?
Do you want to hear about the deal that I'm making?
You
It's you and me
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
Say, if I only could, oh
You don't wanna hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware, I'm tearing you asunder
Oh, there is thunder in our hearts
Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
Oh, tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You
It's you and me
It's you and me, won't be unhappy
Oh, come on, baby (Ye-yeah)
Oh, come on, darling (Ye-yo)
Let me steal this moment from you now
Oh, come on, angel (Yeah)
Come on, come on, darling
Let's exchange the experience (Ye-oh, ooh, ooh)

In my five mile high club You was on a fall I concentrate on landing The town was peaceful Jet planes fly too close to the ground It makes these houses shake Friendly figures fall to the ground In a sentimental earth quake Oh, that's alright, that's alright That's alright, sad song tonight For these are the days that are driving me crazy These are the days taht are driving me insane Every day let your love shine down all around me These are the days that are diving me crazy When brothers and sisters fall to the ground in half hast harmony With lives of dreams 'fore their wide eyes But small reality Oh, that's alright, that's alright That's alright, sad song tonight, oh These are the days that are driving me crazy These are the days that are driving me insane We take a train then a jet plane Travel back and forth in time Plesed to meet you, what's your name? I'm afraid I've forgotten mine Oh, that's alright, that's alright That's alright, sad song tonight For these are the days - let your love shine down all around me For these are the days - let your love shine down all around me For these are the days - let your love shine down all around me
