Luminites are a four piece English band from London who rose to fame after reaching the final of the seventh series of Britain’s Got Talent in 2013. The band were founded in September 2011. They have uploaded videos of their covers on YouTube. They stated that fans’ comments encouraged them to audition. They frequently busked on the streets of London. They also released a charity single in 2011. They revealed during their time on BGT that they had been bullied at school because people deemed their musical aspirations as uncool, but mentioned that they intend to be role models. It was also reported that will.i.am had coached them in the past. When interviewed by Shireen Fenner of Flavourmag they responded: JJ: “The guys who are managing us they spotted Ben and were blown away by his beat-boxing talent. They had a chat with Ben to see how they could channel his talent, and they had a few ideas. One of them, which they ended up going with, was Ben helping with finding a group of people to put together. I know Anthony (Anthony Andrews, one of their managers) because my school is right next to his office, and I heard him speaking to one of my friends about music, and it was something I wanted to get involved in. They found us all in different ways, I sang in front of Anthony in his office.” Corey: “I put loads of stuff on YouTube, and the managers spotted me whilst flicking through there.” Steph: “I went along to a rehearsal with my friend to show my support. Anthony asked me to sing and I was like no because I’ve never sung before, and it just went from there really.” Wikipedia®.

Luminites – Do Something Lyrics:
How far would you go to the edge
How hard would you fight for yourself
You’re the king of masterplans
A thousand in a box
But they never see the light of day
and always someones fault
(repeat 2x)
Why don’t you
do do do do. do do do. do do do do. do.
Do something about it
You use excuses all day long
Why it always bombs
Sitting on your derriere
You sing the same old song
(repeat 2x)
Why don’t you
do do do do. do do do. do do do do. do.
Do something about it
Could have made the home run
but the sun was in your eyes
should have been the winner
but they robbed you of the prize
would have climbed that mountain
if it wasn’t for the snow and ice
(repeat 2x)
Why don’t you
do do do do. do do do. do do do do. do
Do something about it
How far would you go to the edge
How hard would you fight for yourself
Falling throught the hour glass
your words are so insincere
your mouth is moving really fast
but all that i can hear is
(repeat 2x)
Why don’t you
do do do do
do do do
do do do do
do
Do something about it
Could have made the homerun
but the sun was in your eyes
should have been the winner
but they robbed you of the prize
would have climbed that mountain
if it wasn’t for the snow and ice
(repeat 2x)
Why don’t you
do do do do. do do do. do do do do. do
Why don’t you just do it
u better do suttin
about it cause nuttin
without it and i can see your doubts
dreams you gotta shout it mount it
and ride the future today and ride it
gd like a shud
and don’t be sleeping away
you are sitting a sloths throne
you do nothin
ya chillin on top of the
sloths throne
doing nothin
u going round in circles
ur a star to none
so be a diamond in the
dirt or go back to square one
Could have made the homerun
but the sun was in your eyes
should have been the winner
but they robbed you of the prize
would have climbed that mountain
if it wasn’t for the snow and ice
(repeat 2x)
Why don’t you
do do do do. do do do. do do do do. do
Do something about it this time
Could have made the homerun
but the sun was in your eyes
should have been the winner
but they robbed you of the prize
would have climbed that mountain
if it wasn’t for the snow and ice
(repeat 2x)
Why don’t you
do do do do. do do do. do do do do. do.
