Arco are a British band noted for unusually slow, quiet, poetic music: a gig review in national newspaper The Guardian suggested "an hour in arco's company is the aural equivalent of a day in a flotation tank".[1] Similarly, a review in Q, a UK monthly music magazine, described first album Coming To Terms as "the aural equivalent of a human being pausing for thought as the world speeds on around".[2]
Their track "Lullaby" was featured on the soundtrack album of Californication on the US Showtime network.[3][4]
In Korea two tracks, "Alien" and "Perfect World", were featured on the soundtrack album of network drama series Coffee Prince,[5] while "Lullaby" featured in an advertisement for Sky mobile phones, and "Babies Eyes" in an advert for "17" tea. "Alien" also appeared in the soundtrack of the film Turning Green, and in the soundtrack of One Tree Hill (series 1, episode 15).[6]
In 2005 they played a tour of the US west coast, including gigs at Los Angeles, Santa Cruz, San Francisco, Portland and Seattle.
Their most recent, and apparently final album, Yield, was released via Pastel in Korea in 2010.

Arco, Trentino
Arco (German: Arch) is a comune in Trentino in northeast Italy.
The town is faced on one side by sheer limestone cliffs jutting up like a wall protecting it and its ancient hilltop castle.
Main sights
Economy
Tourism is a major part of the local economy, with many Germans and Austrians coming over the Brenner Pass from Austria. Popular tourist activities include windsurfing on nearby Lake Garda, and rock climbing on the walls near the city. The annual Rock Master event, an international climbing competition, is held on the town's outdoor artificial wall. Mountain biking is popular and international bikers flock to the town.
Arco (Renfe Operadora service)
Arco is a commercial passenger train service operated in Spain by Renfe Operadora. Arco fully renovates and refurbishes Renfe's B11x-10200 series of passenger trains. New bogies, capable of working at 220 km/h, were added. The bogies are modified versions of model GC-1 by CAF, also known as GC-3, allowing a higher degree of comfort at higher speeds.
Routes
The Arco passenger trains work on the line Barcelona – Malaga – Sevilla – Badajoz – Almería- Granada, with the train known as Arco García Lorca; and since 5 May 2008, they also cover the line Basque Country – Galicia, known as Arco Camino de Santiago.
Until 2 May 2008, the trains were operating on the Mediterranean corridor, between Barcelona, Alicante and Murcia. There was also an Arco train service from Porbou / Cerbere (France) and Valencia Nord.

That you take it
And I know

This is what they told me
'Cause you can't make
A h*e a housewife
So how can I become a man
And I've been a dog

Then she can change (well)
'Cause we both the same (well)
'Cause if she's a freak
I'm a freak and she
[chorus x4]
If you can feel me
I just needed me a freak
To make me say
"Whoo" in the midnight hour
I need some, somebody
To make me say
"Whoo, whoo, whoo"
Oh lay me down
Flip my mind inside out
Make me say
"Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo"
Make me say
