Grab the Sun

"Grab the Sun" is a song by TV Mania, released on the Bored with Prozac and The Internet? album by Tape Modern-The Vinyl Factory on 11 March 2013.

About the song
This is a sad-eyed Tropicalia song made from a palette of headphone-friendly sonic textures.

The track was created in 1997, while keyboardist Nick Rhodes and then-guitarist Warren Cuccurullo were spending their downtime looping daytime television snippets over then-futuristic swathes of Blade Runner synths and post-grunge guitar.

The song is part of a conceptual soundtrack for what TV Mania imagined as a "bizarre TV cyber soap opera" about a family who gives away their freedom to scientists in exchange for a Hi-tech modern lifestyle and reality show fame.
