Irving

Irving is an American indie rock band. It was founded by Alex Church, later of Sea Wolf, Brian Canning and Steven Scott in 1998, after playing together for the first time at an arts festival. Soon after, they added keyboardist Shana Levy and Brent Turner; Levy remained with the group until 2003, when Aaron Burrows joined. Rather than having a frontman, the vocal and songwriting aspects are shared by at least three people. They acquired modest popularity[citation needed] after airplay on MTV2 for the song "Situation" in spring 2006. Members Aaron Burrows, Brian Canning, Steven Scott and Brent Turner formed the band Afternoons along with,Grammy Award winning producer Tom Biller, and multi-instrumentalist Sam Johnson. more »

Cynthia Weston dressed in
Phone booth receiver resting upon her front tooth
As she mines her pockets for change
She's looking about for the narrator
The dial tone is broken by the operator
Who hums the curious thing about leather

Sunday morning traffic came
And it pushed you down to another place
Where all the conversations bear your name
Sunday morning traffic came
And it pushed you down to another place
Where all the situations taste the same

Cynthia Weston gets so depressed
When she can't place the names for the pop IQ test
As the billboard's thinking differently
The circus is calling, they're looking for a darling
Ol' Miss Weston, you'd be perfect for the role
The curious thing about leather

Sunday morning traffic came
And it pushed you down to another place
Where all the conversations bear your name
Sunday morning traffic came
And it pushed you down to another place
Where all the situations taste the same

Perhaps you lapse into a day dream
Where it may seem too complex and day life esque
So you wonder, worry, you might find it hard to distinguish
That in which the dream that you just had from the daytime genre

The cops come busting in looking for Miss Weston
The circus is calling, looking for a darling

Sunday morning traffic came
And it pushed you down to another place
Where all the conversations bear your name
Sunday morning traffic came
And it pushed you down to another place
Where all the situations taste the same
