Soul Asylum Biography

Soul Asylum is an American alternative rock band that formed in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1983.

The band originally formed in 1981 under the name Loud Fast Rules, with the original line-up consisting of Dan Murphy, Dave Pirner, Karl Mueller and Pat Morley. The latter was replaced by Grant Young in 1984. The band recorded three albums with Twin/Tone Records and two with A&M Records to little commercial success. However, in 1992, they released the triple-platinum album Grave Dancers Union, featuring their Grammy Award-winning single "Runaway Train". The band played the Bill Clinton inauguration early the next year. They also scored a platinum record with the album Let Your Dim Light Shine three years later. In 1998 they recorded Candy From A Stranger. Mueller was diagnosed with cancer in 2004, causing the band to organize a benefit concert on his behalf. Mueller died a year later. In 2006 they released their latest album, The Silver Lining.

Soul Asylum - Runaway Train Lyrics

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a blowtorch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning

Two boys on a playground
Tryin' to push each other down
See the crowd gather 'round
Nothing attracts a crowd like a crowd

Loves company
We could start a company

Suddenly he breaks into song

Well, if there's one thing that I know
It's easy to kill what's hard to grow
One thing I might say
No one's gotta know about running away

She laughed in my face
So seriously I took her
I was a disgrace

You get buried by the past
