Biografia:
The Teardrop Explodes foi formado em Liverpool, Inglaterra, em 1978 por Julian Cope, que anteriormente fazia parte da banda The Crucial Three, junto com Pete Wylie ( Wah! ) e Ian McCulloch (Echo & the Bunnymen).
Ficaram conhecidos pelo seu single de maior sucesso, "Reward", que entrou no top 10 dos charts britânicos. Lançaram dois discos de estúdio no início dos anos 80, sendo considerados um dos ícones cruciais da psicodelia no rock daquela década.

Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
This has always been one of my favourite Julian Cope songs; simple
and yet affecting. Originally done on some kind of synthesiser(s)
I guess, but nice to play on a guitar.
Key of C (mainly, but with Eb thrown in to keep it interesting.)
Intro
C Dm (x4)
Verse 1
(Each line of the verse follow this progression. Listen for timing.)
C Dm Em Dm
Half the time as I sit in disarray
I am thinking of a dream I never had
Then I awake, and for a while
I call your name in Colin’s house
But tiny children have a way of falling down
Interlude 1
Eb Dm
Oh, I could make a meal
Eb Dm
Of that wonderful despair I feel
Eb Dm G
But waking up I turn and face the wall
Verse 2
(Each line of the verse follow this progression. Listen for timing.)
C Dm Em Dm
The car arrives and takes me back again
Drifting through imaginary planes
And fighting men aboard a raft
A sailing ship has run aground
And confidence is valued in these days
Interlude 2
Eb Dm
But each character
Eb Dm
Is plundering my home
Eb Dm G
And taking everything that is my own
Interlude 3
(Repeat this next section twice)
Dm C
Oh no, I’m not sure about
Dm C
Those things that I care about
Dm C G
Oh no, I’m not sure, not any more...
(Repeat the verse progression to fade….)
C Dm Em Dm
