Turn (Therapy? song)

"Turn" is a song by Northern Irish rock band Therapy?, released on June 1, 1993 from their second EP Face the Strange as the lead single. It is also featured on their fourth and second major label album Troublegum (1994).

Background
Andy Cairns said about composing the song, "I was trying to write something like early period R.E.M., of which I'm a huge fan; Reckoning, and Murmur. I'd come up with this little riff. We'd built it into a big huge chorus on top." A particular line from the song, "turn and face the strange", was taken from the title of a chapter in the book Storming Heaven: LSD and the American Dream by Jay Stevens, which Cairns had been reading. Both Cairns and Michael McKeegan were not aware at the time that the lyric was already used in "Changes" by David Bowie.
