1) A is a British alternative rock band.
2) A [エース] is a Japanese visual rock band
British alternative rock band:
They formed in 1995 in Suffolk, England. The original line up was the three brothers: Jason Perry (Vocals), Adam Perry (Drums) and Giles Perry (Keyboard), with two friends Mark Chapman (Guitar) and Steve Swindon (Bass). Swindon quit the band in 1997 and was replaced by Daniel P. Carter.
After changing their name from 'Grand Designs' and abandoning their early progressive-inspired sound for a more punky feel, they released their début album "How Ace Are Buildings" in 1997.
The second album; "A vs. Monkey Kong", followed in 1999. Monkey Kong was a more poppy record than How Ace Are Buildings and the band toured the world, played festivals and enjoyed a small degree of success worldwide, especially in Germany.
Hi-Fi Serious was their third album, released in 2002. It was preceded by their biggest single to date, "Nothing", which saw the band reach the UK top ten for the first time, eventually hitting number 9. Starbucks was also a top 20 hit, named after the coffee chain.
The tour following Hi-Fi Serious saw the band playing their largest venues to date, headlining the 5000 capacity Brixton Academy as part of the Inner-City Sumo Tour. 'A' finally released their fourth album on June 27th 2005, entitled "Teen Dance Ordinance". The album had been recorded 2 years earlier, but due to Jason Perry's illness and record company squabbles its release was heavily delayed, by which time the group's following appears to be a mere cult once again. In 2006, Warner dropped 'A' from their record label, citing poor sales.
'A' then went on hiatus from 2006-2008, but have now returned, playing a few shows supporting The Wildhearts. They will be writing new material and hope to release an album in 2009. With this new era for the band the lineup has changed with bassist Daniel P. Carter not returning to the band and has been replaced by John Mitchell of It Bites.
Japanese visual rock band :
consisting of Shin-ichi on vocals, Seiya on bass, U-SUKE and MORI on guitar, and Tōki on drums.
Miles Away
A Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm not messing about, I've got a mile of self-doubt
Yeah, you're not even close yet
Because you're miles away
Another day in bed, sorting out your head
You don't know what you're thinking about
Its funny when you're wrong
You're miles away, no one can stop me
So far, it's funny when you're falling over
You're the robot voice, and the people's choice
Yeah, you blink and it goes wrong
Because you're miles away
You're not even warm, human after all
You don't know what you're talking about
You're not right all of the time
Its funny when you're wrong
You're miles away, no one can stop me
So far, it's funny when you're falling over, oh!
I'm too skint to pay my debtors
Uh-oh unopened letters
Feels like a siege I'm under
How did you get my number?
Oh oh, it's for the better
Than on the never ever
I'll get back and back and back
And back and back and back, around we go
You're miles away, no one can stop me
So far, it's funny when you're falling over
Miles away, no one can stop me
So far, it's funny when you're falling over
You're not right all of the time
It's funny when you're wrong
You're not right all of the time
It's funny when you're wrong

My grandfather grew up in those fields his whole life and worked them until the day his body gave out. Now I’m the first member of my family to go to college. I’m a senior at UOP in Stockton. This story just hits home on so many levels. I’m honored to be watching an early showing on Aug 30 at the University, in which he will be attending 🧡 ✊🏾 🇲🇽 Si Se Puede!

Nice. I also went to SJDC and transferred to UOP and graduated last year, and I haven't met Jose Hernandez myself but he was always at events that involved MESA and other science and engineering events from both schools, and many of my friends met him.
