Out of My Head - by Mobile

I saw this song on MTV years ago, & as we didn't have satellite or cable at our house, I didn't ever see it again (except maybe partially & briefly once, but for the sake of the story, that didn't happen  ;) -. I knew what it was but I never found it when I searched all those years ago... but alas, I have prevailed!
Mobile is from MontrĂ©al, Qu. They started as Moonraker in 1997, & “After some initial success”, they found themselves moving to Toronto & signing on with Interscope Records (owned by Universal Music Group).  After a name change, they released their debut album on April 18th, 2006, called “Tomorrow Starts Today”. Two songs from that album - “MontrĂ©al Calling” & “New York Minute” - have both found a couple of spots each – both in games (“NHL 07” & “FIFA 07”) & movies/TV shows. They were nominated in the 2007 Juno’s for Rock Album of the Year; & won New Group of the Year. Their sophomore album followed: “Tales From the City” was released Oct. 7th, 2008; some of the inspiration for this album were drawn from Christian Bais’ (guitar) mother being diagnosed with breast cancer. Unfortunately, the Canadian band has since disbanded, announcing on Facebook in March 2011 that they were breaking up – they were working on their third album during the past 2 years, but it will not be released. This song is from “Tomorrow Starts Today”.
