On The Turn is the second and final album by Irish heavy-metal outfit Kerbdog. It was recorded in Los Angeles in 1996 and was produced by GGGarth who had previously worked with Rage Against the Machine. Unfortunately, the album was delayed by almost a year and never sold in great enough quantities to satisfy the record label, reaching number 64 in the UK Albums Chart.[2] Kerbdog were dropped by Mercury and their back catalog was deleted shortly thereafter. The band split in 1998, reforming for a reunion in 2005. Since then the band has continued to perform occasional one-off shows. Artists such as Biffy Clyro, Cars on Fire, Frank Turner, Inme, and many others have all said this album had a major influence on their music. Biffy Clyro also stated that they chose GGGarth to produce their last two albums based on his work with Kerbdog. Biffy Clyro's lead singer, Simon Neil, has been quoted as saying that On the Turn 'is a beautiful, beautiful thing'.

The Turn (Live album)
The Turn is the eighth studio album by US rock band Live and their first release with lead singer Chris Shinn. It was released on October 28, 2014.
History
The band announced that they would be taking a two year "hiatus" in June 2009, but in November of that year, guitarist Chad Taylor revealed that Ed Kowalczyk was no longer part of the band. Lead singer and primary songwriter Kowalczyk released a solo album Alive in June 2010, while the other three members of Live formed a new band, The Gracious Few, with singer Kevin Martin and guitarist Sean Hennesy from the band Candlebox. Their self-titled album was released in September 2010.
On March 12, 2012 Chris Shinn, formerly the lead singer of the band Unified Theory, was revealed to have joined Live when he played with them at a show at the Strand-Capitol Performing Arts Center in York. Live's first major tour with Shinn was as part of the Summerland Tour 2013, playing 35 shows across the US.
The first single from The Turn, "The Way Around Is Through" was released on September 16, 2014. Live have also released full versions of the tracks "Siren's Call", "We Open the Door", "Natural Born Killers" and "Don't Run to Wait" via YouTube, each with an introduction by Chad Taylor.
The Turn (novel)
For the film based on the novel, see "Il turno"
The Turn (Italian: Il Turno [il ˈturno]) is the name of Luigi Pirandello's second novel. Originally published in Catania in 1902 by the editor Niccolò Giannotta, it was republished by the Fratelli Treves publishing house, along with the novella Lontano, with the subtitle Novellas of Luigi Pirandello in 1915. The author seems to have considered it to be a long short story rather than a true novel, and, in the introduction to the 1915 edition, explained that the two stories were written in his early youth and judged them, saying, “…the one is gay if not light-hearted, and the other is sad". He maintained that their greatest merit consisted in "the open vivacity of representation."
Plot
Radio On
Radio On is a 1979 film directed by Christopher Petit. It is a rare example of a British road movie, shot in black and white by Wim Wenders' assistant cameraman Martin Schäfer and featuring music from a number of new wave bands from the time, as well as established artists such as Kraftwerk, Devo and David Bowie. It is a journey through late seventies Britain by way of a road trip from London to Bristol, with Robert a DJ (played by David Beames) attempting to investigate the suicide of his brother. David Beames's character is a disc jockey at a radio station based on the United Biscuits Network, which broadcast to factories owned by United Biscuits.

The Turn
by: Sophomore AttemptI thought if I waited around, you'd come back
but I was wrong, and it's not the first time
so all I can do is apologize and hope you hear me
"oh, I'm so sorry..."
and I don't see the point of this
when all we're doing is avoiding loneliness
I hope you know that it's not your fault we fell apart
and I know we're "better alone"
but I'll still say this to your face
I'll scream every word so I know you hear me
and I'm so sorry...
(oh no, we've gone and messed this up)
I'll take the back door, and you take the front
and I will try my hardest just to let you forget
let me say this one time
I swear I'm changing every second
