About Tangerine

"Tangerine" is a song by British rock band Feeder, released as the band's second single, and the first that was taken from the Polythene album. The single managed to gain word-of-mouth success and made #60 on the UK top 75- their first of 25 hit singles to date. In 2001, frontman Grant Nicholas said he "hated" the song. During Feeder's May 2008 tour, he said the band "will have to learn it first" when they were asked to play it. The played it during a series of gigs in early 2010 under their Renegades side-project name, before the song was retired for good after their April 2010 gig at the Camden Electric Ballroom. It featured on the original Gran Turismo game as an instrumental. Grant once said that the song is about the struggles the band experienced while trying to get a record contract. more »

Tangerine, turning green
Cellophane, window pane
Socialize, paralyzed
Plastic faces suck me dry

Tangerine, tangerine
Tangerine, tangerine

I know, it's sad
Life's just a piece of fruit
Touch down, new ground
Stop living on the moon

I know, it's sad
Life's just a piece of fruit
Touch down, new ground
Stop living on the moon

Twenty eight, suffocate
Take a ride, see me fly
Detonate, feel it break
See myself disintegrate

Tangerine, tangerine
Tangerine, tangerine

I know, it's sad
Life's just a piece of fruit
Touch down, new ground
Stop living on the moon

I know, it's sad
Life's just a piece of fruit
Touch down, new ground
Stop living on the moon

See it as I climb
The rain burns in my eyes
So catch me as I fall away

Tangerine, tangerine
Tangerine, tangerine
Oh, oh, oh, oh

I know, it's sad
Life's just a piece of fruit
Touch down, new ground
Stop living on the moon

I know, it's sad
Life's just a piece of fruit
Touch down, new ground
Stop living on the moon

I know, it's sad
Life's just a piece of fruit
Touch down, new ground
Stop living on the moon

I know, it's sad
Life's just a piece of fruit
Touch down, new ground
Stop living on the moon
