Famous lyrics by »

Orlando was the most successful and visible band to emerge from the extremely brief Romo movement of the mid-'90s.[citation needed] Formed from the ashes of Sarah Records band Shelley, Orlando were led by lyricist/guitarist Dickon Edwards, and singer/songwriter Tim Chipping. Multi-instrumentalists Neil Turner and Mike Austen completed the group, but did not appear on the group's record sleeves or participate in interviews. Orlando combined the stylish, synthesized dance-pop of 90s boybands and American swingbeat acts, alongside an obvious love of Motown, Northern Soul and the songs of Jimmy Webb but added Pulp's sense of purpose, Manic Street Preachers' sense of outrage and Morrissey's sense of humour.[citation needed]
