1) Spectrum is a project of Peter Kember, a British musician more usually known as Sonic Boom, and founding member of the band Spacemen 3. Sonic Boom's first solo album, Spectrum, was recorded in 1989 while Spacemen 3 were still together, and featured the other members of the group. However, when Spacemen 3 disbanded in 1991, Kember recruited new musicians for the group Spectrum.
Initial Spectrum releases carried on from the sound of late-period Spacemen 3, featuring conventional songs and a regular band. First single "How You Satisfy Me" was an original composition reminiscent of 1960s garage bands. 1992's Soul Kiss (Glide Divine) was split between songs and longer experimental pieces featuring drones and repetition, and Highs, Lows and Heavenly Blows (1994) was also mainly song-oriented. Occasionally Jessamine and Silver Apples have collaborated with Kember using the Spectrum name.
From 1996 the name has been used for Kember's solo work, usually with Pete Bassman (Pete Bain) from the original Spacemen 3 lineup and recording engineer/musician Alf Hardy. This material was often in the same vein as Kember's Experimental Audio Research project, reflecting an increased interest in vintage analogue synthesizers, especially those made by EMS. A new album was started with Randall Nieman of Fuxa, though put on hold due to other recording and live commitments.
In 2008, Spectrum reformed with Pete Kember, Roger Brogan (drums, samples), Nolan Watkinson (bass) and Rupert Bowkett (guitar) making appearances with the reunited My Bloody Valentine.
Continuing touring from 2008 through 2009, Spectrum were joined by guitarists Kevin Cowan and Jason Holt. The new line-up has released an ep entitled "War Sucks", recorded in Basel, Switzerland in early 2009 with David Maxxx of Psychic TV.
Spectrum continue to work on a new LP tentatively titled "On the Wings of Mercury" while Kember has produced the sophomore LP for MGMT, due out in late 2009.
2) Spectrum is a blues rock group from Durham, UK. Influenced by the likes of Free, Zeppelin, Thin Lizzy and Hendrix; Spectrum formed in 2010 hailing from Durham, currently performing both covers and originals whilst establishing a reputation as a young upcoming band.

This lead to playing the final at Marshall HQ in Milton Keynes, they finished runners up. Dan Leak (guitar) gained the accolade of 'Marshall Amplification's Guitarist of the year'.
Spectrum returned to Blast studios in February 2012 to complete their second EP titled ‘Lust and Lost Joy’ which is now available at Bandcamp

3) Spectrum is an Australian band from the early 1970's.
Australian Spectrum was the brain-child of the eccentric song-writer Mike Rudd and his bassist mate, Bill Putt. They had limitted success commercially and remained an underground band. In the mid 70's they formed a more commercial unit called Indelible Murtceps (Spectrum spelt backwards) and often played a double set, one as Spectrum one as Murtceps.
Rudd and Putt went on to form another more commercially successful band, Ariel, in the late 70's.

5) Spectrum is an Israeli psychedelic trance project which was founded back in 2001 (as well as Spectrum records label) by Israel's leading, veteran Dj and one of its most influential figures, Dj Dede.
Dede has been active in the local and international scenes since the early psychedelic trance days, throwing free beach parties in 1992, and co-founding the legendary MDMA Records and Distribution in 1997.
Dede's unique powerful and uplifting style can be recaptured while listening to the various CD compilations he has compiled. Spectrum records concept is Dede's vision of the future of trance and its electronic siblings. Discovering those incredible talents and following them through.The Spectrum sound has been molded after experimenting with all trance grooves and can be best described as uplifting, touching yet powerful and juicy dance floor hits.
6) Spectrum
The Spectrum were a manufactured group, put together by British RCA to see if it was possible come up with a British equivalent of the Monkees. Despite exposure due to their feature in the closing credits of "Captain Scarlet & the Mysterons", they never had any luck in their own country.
The Spectrum made their debut with a single of "Samantha's Mine" and "Saturday's Child," issued in early 1967; it became more popular in Spain (reaching the number one spot) than it was in England. Their second single, "Portabello Road," was picked up by Radio London, the top pirate radio outlet in England, and played very heavily, however failing to make the chart. Their third single, "Headin' for a Heatwave," hit number one in Spain, and their fifth single, a cover of "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da," reached the top spot in Germany during 1968.
Singing the title song in the end credits of "Captain Scarlet" failed to get them any significant sales, and the song was never issued commercially. Iironically, their presence on the title theme did give the group a bit of exposure in America, but they never were able to take advantage of this.
In the following years, after many changes within the group, they recorded two additional single and a LP entitled "The Light is Dark Enough", for RCA - after which the troup moved to Parlophone for one last single before they split up.
Keith Forsey continued to play drums with other artists, and became a major songwriter - co-authoring "Flashdance (What a Feeling)" and "Don't You Forget About Me", and several other movie soundtracks.
7) Spectrum is an ensemble formerly sponsored by Rochester College in Rochester Hills, Michigan.
8) Spectrum is a progressive metal band from Skopje, Macedonia formed in early 2016. Influenced by many other genres and post-genres, experimenting with their whole varieties of more aggressive vibe on one hand, yet on the other hand softer and more melodic, atmospheric vibe they create their own, unique and modern sound.
9) Spectrum was a seven-member K-Pop boy group created in South Korea (Seoul) in 2018, under the company WYNN Entertainment, whose genres are Pop and Dance. The group was originally formed with 7 members called MinJae (the leader), DongKyu, JaeHan, Hwarang, Villain, EunJun (the maknae) and DongYoon (past).

Do You Remember
Spectrum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I hear the blame was mine
I'd call you up to say I'm sorry
But I wouldn't want to waste your time
'Cos I love you, but I can't take any more
There's a look I can't describe in your eyes
Yes we could try, like we tried before
Do you remember...?
There seemed no way to make up
'Cos it seemed your mind was set
And the way you looked it told me
It's a look I know I'll never forget
You could've come over to my side
You could've let me know
You could've tried to see the difference between us
But it seemed too far for you to go.
Do you remember...?
Through all of my life
In spite of all the pain
You know people are funny sometimes
'Cos they just can't wait
To get hurt again
Do you remember...?
There are things we won't recall
Feelings we'll never find
It's taken so long to see it
?Cos we never seemed to have the time
There was always something more important to do
More important to say
But 'I love you' wasn't one of those things
And now it's too late
Do you remember...?
In Spectrum's song Do You Remember, the singer reminisces about a past relationship that ended due to lies and miscommunication. The lyrics suggest the singer takes responsibility for the demise of the relationship, regretting not apologizing sooner. The line, "I hear the blame was mine," implies that the singer is aware that blame was cast upon him by others or by his own conscience. Nevertheless, he didn't attempt to rectify the situation by apologizing promptly, although he deeply loved the other person.
The lyrics continue to express a sense of sorrow and confusion surrounding the relationship's end. The singer acknowledges that he and the other person attempted to reconcile before but failed, emphasizing the difficulty of trying again once more. The line, "There's a look I can't describe in your eyes," suggests that the singer is aware that whatever happened between them caused pain and disappointment for the other person. Furthermore, the lyrics "You know people are funny sometimes, 'cos they just can't wait to get hurt again" suggest a poignant idea that we humans seem to struggle with learning from past mistakes.
In conclusion, Spectrum's song Do You Remember deals with themes of love, regret, communication, and loss. The singer realizes too late that love and apologies are essential in relationships and that sometimes it takes time to understand the importance of communication and honesty. The song's emotional core comes from the singer's regretful tone while singing the lyrics, which encapsulates the universal feeling of having missed the chance to fix something that could have been beautiful.
Line by Line Meaning
We never talked about it
We never discussed our problems openly
But I hear the blame was mine
Despite not communicating, I take responsibility for the problems in our relationship
I'd call you up to say I'm sorry
I want to apologize to you over the phone
But I wouldn't want to waste your time
I fear that you won't want to hear my apology
'Cos I love you, but I can't take any more
Despite my love for you, I can't handle the pain anymore
There's a look I can't describe in your eyes
I can see the hurt and disappointment in your eyes
Yes we could try, like we tried before
We could attempt to fix our relationship like we did in the past
When you kept on telling me those lies
When you continued to deceive me with your lies
Do you remember...?
Do you recall the good and bad times we had together?
There seemed no way to make up
It felt impossible to repair the damage in our relationship
'Cos it seemed your mind was set
Your mind was made up and unwilling to change
And the way you looked it told me
I could tell from your expression
It's a look I know I'll never forget
It's an unforgettable look of disappointment
You could've come over to my side
You could've tried to understand my perspective
You could've let me know
You could've communicated with me
You could've tried to see the difference between us
You could've attempted to understand our differences
But it seemed too far for you to go.
You weren't willing to make the effort to save our relationship
Through all of my life
Throughout my entire life
In spite of all the pain
Despite all the heartache
You know people are funny sometimes
It's strange how people can be at times
'Cos they just can't wait
Because they are impatient
To get hurt again
To experience pain once more
There are things we won't recall
There are memories that we won't remember
Feelings we'll never find
Certain emotions will be forever lost
It's taken so long to see it
It took a while to realize this
?Cos we never seemed to have the time
Because we were always too busy
There was always something more important to do
We prioritized other things instead of our relationship
More important to say
We focused on other topics of conversation
But 'I love you' wasn't one of those things
We failed to express our love to each other
And now it's too late
It's too late to repair the damage and say the things we should have said
Do you remember...?
Do you remember the things we could have done differently to save our relationship?
