"Back to the Start" is a track on Lily Allen's second studio album It's Not Me, It's You. It was released as the sixth and final single from the album.
"Back to the Start" was played in nightly radio countdowns in Australia and peaked at #21 on the Australian Airplay Chart. There is no music video for the song.
Lily Allen was one of twelve acts on the Parlophone label to have an exclusive record released for UK Record Store Day 2010. The song chosen was "Back to the Start", with previous b-side "Kabul Shit" featuring again as the b-side to the single. It was released on a 7" vinyl only format, limited to 1,000 copies and was only available from selected independent music stores across the UK on 17 April 2010. The song could also be cherry-picked from the regular album download.
The song is about Lily’s relationship with her older sister, Sarah Owen. In the lyrics, Lily describes her hopes for Owen to forgive her, requesting that they try and go 'back to the start'. Lily explained to The Sun on 30 January 2009: "Sarah and I didn't get on for a long, long time. She cried when she heard that song and we are so close now. She finds it tricky with me being in the spotlight, though she'd never, ever want to go near a stage or perform herself. She's not jealous of me or anything like that. No. Not at all. The only thing she is envious of are my clothes."
Back To The Start is the third solo release from Peter Baldrachi. Eleven of the twelve tracks appearing on Back To The Start were released on 2011’s Tomorrow Never Knows in September 2011. However, the record was pulled a few months after its initial release to be remixed by Ed Stasium, (Ramones, Mick Jagger, The Smithereens, Reverend Horton Heat, Nada Surf) in early 2012. An additional track, “Picture On My Wall” which first appeared as a B-side, was also remixed with additional parts added by Stasium (harmonica, guitar, percussion), and included on the album. The record has earned positive reviews from publications such as The Big Takeover, GhettoBlaster magazine, and PowerPopaholic.
The record also features performances by guitarist, bassist, and arranger Gary Rand, keyboardists Dave Lieb (The Vinyl Skyway) and Peter Linnane (The Farewells), backing vocalists Alice Austin (The Lavas, Stark Raving Mad) and Amy Fairchild, keyboardist and 2012 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Ian McLagan (Small Faces, Faces, The Rolling Stones, Billy Bragg), singer/songwriter Amy Rigby (solo, Wreckless Eric), multi-instrumentalist Ian Kennedy (Reverse, Dennis Brennan), and cellist Aristides Rivas.

Redcar is a seaside resort and town in the Tees Valley in North Yorkshire, England. The local council, a unitary authority, is Redcar and Cleveland. Historically part of the North Riding of Yorkshire, it lies 7.5 miles (12.1 km) east-north-east of Middlesbrough by the North Sea coast. The combined population of the wards of Coatham, Dormanstown, Kirkleatham, Newcomen, West Dyke and Zetland was 36,610 in the 2001 census decreasing to 35,692 in the 2011 census.
With the opening of the Middlesbrough to Redcar Railway in 1846, Redcar became a resort for Victorian tourists.
Redcar occupies a low-lying site by the sea; the second element of its name is from Old Scandinavian kjarr, meaning 'marsh', and the first may be either Old English rēad meaning 'red' or OE hrēod 'reed'. Redcar originated as a fishing town in the 14th century, trading with the larger adjacent market town of Coatham. Until the mid-19th century it was a sub-parish of the of Marske-by-the-Sea—mentioned in the Domesday book.

Summer is here, the ocean is clear, I got some beer and I'm out on the pier
Stars look down on Sleepy Town, distant shimmering of a faint sundown
Silent Heart will refuse to pound, what would I need to turn around?
Someday, sometime, I will return
I turned my back long ago, discontent with what I did know
Stale water from melting snow, someday, sometime, I'll come around
Turn me around, I wanna turn myself around just to get back
Turn time around, I wanna turn my time around to get back
to the start
... a new false start, an open vein for Silent Heart
Paint that sky with clouds and birds, still that sound that can be heard
Someday, sometime, I will return
I turned my back to Sleepy Town not to drown in the seaweed night
Now I hear the same sad sound in the pulse of the city lights
Someday, sometime, I'll come around [repeat chorus]
Wake up at noon, get a few brews, meet with the lads and go to the beach
Long after dark, fly to my girl, those were the days, so out of reach
