In 2001 the song Take the Long Road and Walk It circulated as a demo, before being released by Fierce Panda. The band were quickly signed by EMI/Virgin imprint, Hut, who released their first EP You Might as Well Try to Fuck Me.
In 2002, following another EP, The People, they released their eponymous debut album.
In Autumn 2004, they released their second album, Welcome to the North, and the accompanying single Freedom Fighters, before touring with Incubus. One of the singles from the album, Breakin', became a hit on American rock radio.
Their eagerly awaited third album entitled Strength in Numbers was released in June 2008. However, in September 2010, singer/songwriter Robert Harvey confirmed the group's intention to split, and on 31 March 2011 the band announced a series of farewell shows in Japan and the UK.

Come What May
The Music Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All your dreams come true
Who you are
Will you ever understand
All my life
I tried to be there/[them]
Now I'm sure
That this is the end
Stay /[to the end], come what may
Yeah, come what may
Who you are
All your dreams come true
Who you are
Will you ever walk the sea/[same]
All my life
I tried to be them/[there]
Now I know
That this is the end
Stay, come what may
Yeah, come what may
I've been holding you in my mind
Scared, of facing you
And now I'm working my life away
Lonely for you
Stay, come what may
Yeah, come what may
The Music's song "Come What May" is a powerful and emotional ballad about a relationship coming to an end. The song presents the idea of understanding who you are as a person and coming to terms with the end of a significant relationship. In the opening lines, the singer asks if the other person will ever understand who they are and their dreams and desires. The lyrics express a sense of longing and desperation as though the singer is pleading for the other person to stay with them, despite knowing that the relationship is coming to an end.
The following lines allude to trying to be there for the other person their whole life, but now understanding that this is the end of the road. The overall message of the song is to encourage the listener to stay and hold on, despite the challenges and struggles. The song's melancholy lyrics and slow tempo perfectly showcase the raw emotion and pain of breaking up, ultimately showing us that all relationships come to an end, but we should try to cherish and appreciate our time with others while we can.

Lyrics (for those like me who needs to refresh :D)
Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I love you more and more
Listen to my heart
Can you hear it sing?
Telling me to give you everything
Season may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time
Come what may, come what may
I will love you until my dying day
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
All revolves around you
And there is no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song
And I will be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather, stars may collide
But I love you
I love you
Till the end of time
Till the end of time
Come what may, come what may
I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Come what may
Come what may
Come what may
Come what may

When I listened to this version for the first time, I loved Arron (as you casually do) but I wasnât keen on his duet parts with Karen. Now thatâs all I love. Itâs grew on me so much
