Doves are a rockband from Manchester, United Kingdom. They are known for their large, epicsound, which combines dovetailing guitar lines with driving percussion and a penchant for atmospherics. Originally formed in 1989 as Sub Sub, a dance act who coincided with the rise of the Hacienda and the ravescene from Manchester expanding outwards, they enjoyed moderate success for seven years, before suffering the disaster of their studio burning down, taking all their current recordings with them. The experience, tragedy and pressure of that would inspire their name-change, to Doves, and ultimately their first full-length album, "Lost Souls", released in April 2000.. Lost Souls was a dark, atmospheric effort, full of brooding keyboards and claustrophobic light grooves, yet charted at number 13, mainly due to the top 40 singles, "The Cedar Room", "Catch The Sun" and "The Man Who Told Everything".

Lost Souls Lyrics
Doves
Trying to make some sense of the days
Now that they're all good
Every little thing that they say
Well you know they could
She lies to console
For she cries for all the lost souls
You, you know we're gone
We're all so lost, lost
Said I couldn't get out of bed
Is that the law
Every little thing that I said
You just can't ignore
She lies to console
For she cries for all the lost souls
You, you know we're gone
Cos we're all so lost
You, you know it's gone, gone
