Whilst developing a harder rock sound Me Too incorporated more diverse elements into their sound whilst still essentially remaining true to the lyrically quirky 3-minute harmony-laden melody-driven power pop format the band became known for.
In 2007 Farrah released their 3rd full length album Cut Out and Keep on Rock Indiana (Spain), Egging/1977 (Japan) and Lojinx (UK & ROW).
In 2007 Dana Myzer, formerly of Cotton Mather, joined the band on drums making the current line up Jez Ashurst (vocals, guitar), Andrew Campbell (keyboards, guitar, vocals), Michelle Margherita (bass, vocals) and Dana Myzer (drums, vocals).
Although Farrah have built up a solid fan base over the years they have never crossed into the mainstream consciousness and remain largely unknown outside indie / power pop circles. The band are often cited alongside bands such as Fountains Of Wayne and Weezer as keepers of the contemporary power pop flame.

Tired of Apologising
Farrah Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wanna be friend's but all you want to do is cry
It's always the same
You're telling me we can't get by.
I'm tired of apologising everytime things go wrong
I'm tired of always trying everytime things go wrong, things go wrong, things go wrong.
I don't understand the things inside your head
One minute you're mad, the next you wanna go to bed.
I'm tired of always trying everytime things go wrong, things go wrong, things go wrong
I know that things aren't easy
I never meant to stress you
I've walked on eggshells lately
Do you have to blame me?
I'm tired of apologising everytime things go wrong
I'm tired of always trying everytime things go wrong.
I'm tired of apologising everytime things go wrong, things go wrong, things go wrong.
The lyrics to Farrah's song "Tired of Apologising" depict a relationship where one person is constantly trying to smooth things over while the other is overly emotional and unable to control their reactions. The singer is confused as to why they are again in trouble and can't seem to do anything right. They express a desire to just be friends and move on, but their partner is too upset to let things go. The frustration culminates in the repeated chorus where the singer declares they are tired of always apologizing and trying, implying that their efforts are not appreciated or effective.
The song highlights the struggle in relationships where one person takes on the majority of the emotional labor, constantly trying to fix things and make their partner happy. This is exhausting and inherently unfair as both parties should be working towards a healthy and balanced relationship. The lyrics also suggest a lack of communication and understanding between the couple, with the partner's emotions being described as unpredictable and confusing. Ultimately, the singer seems to be at a breaking point and longing for a way out of the cycle of constant apologies and attempts to make things right.
