Millennium


Quelle


Geschrieben von Robbie Williams/ Guy Chambers/ Leslie Bricusse/ John Barry
Veröffentlicht von EMI Music Publishing/BMG Music Publishing


Robbie sagt:
"'Millennium' hatte keinen Titel - da war kein [singt] 'Millennium'. Nur ein Refrain ohne dieses Stückchen. Wir wußten nicht, wie wir es nennen sollten, aber das neue Jahrtausend war nicht mehr weit, also nannten wir es 'Millennium'."



We've got stars directing our fate
And we're praying it's not too late
Millennium

Some say that we are players
Some say that we are pawns
But we've been making money
Since they day that we were born
Got to slow down 'cos we're low down

Run around in circles
Live a life of solitude
Till we find ourselves a partner someone to
Relate to
Then we'll slow down
Before we fall down

We've got stars directing our fate
And we're praying it's not too late
'Cos we know we're falling from grace
Millennium

Live for liposuction
And detox for your rent
Overdose at Christmas
And give it up for lent

My friends are all so cynical
They refuse to keep the faith
We all enjoy the madness
'Cos we know we're going to fade away

We've got stars directing our fate
And we're praying it's not too late
'Cos we know we're falling from grace
Millennium

Come and have a go if you think you are hard enough
Come and have a go if you think you are hard enough
Millennium

We've got stars directing our fate
And we're praying it's not too late
'Cos we know we're falling from grace
Millennium

And when we come we always come too late
I often think that we were born to hate
Get up and see the sarcasm in my eyes

And when we come we always come too late
I often think that we were born to hate
Get up and see the sarcasm in my eyes

We've got stars directing our fate
Millennium
And we're praying it's not too late
Millennium
'Cos we know we're falling from grace
Millennium

Another Robbie Fantasy
Behind the scenes footage filmed on set at the Millennium video shoot.

I've Been Expecting You: Millennium


Veröffentlichung: 7. September 1998

Die erste Single des Albums 'I've Been Expecting You', 'Millennium' war inspiriert von der James Bond Musik und wurde "in einer Scheune auf dem Land" geschrieben, sagte Robbie. "Es geht dabei um die Zeit vor der Jahrtausendwende und um unseren Geisteszustand".
Zufälligerweise verdrängte 'Millennium' die All Saints von dem Britischen Chartthron und es wurde Robbies erste Solo-Nr. 1. Soweit es Robbie anging, "hat es nunmal jemanden treffen müssen - und wenn es die eigene Ehefrau gewesen wäre!"

Chart Höhepunkte:
'Millennium' wurde im September 1998 Robbies erste Nr. 1 und verblieb 2 Monate in den Britischen Top 40.
Der Song war ebenso ein gewaltiger Hit in ganz Europa, der die Top 20 in Deutschland, Frankreich, Österreich und der Schweiz erstürmte und in Italien die Höchstposition Nr. 4 erreichte.

Default Phoenix From The Flames

Phoenix From The Flames


Geschrieben von Robbie Williams/ Guy Chambers
Veröffentlicht von EMI Music Publishing/BMG Music Publishing


Robbie sagt:
"Ich schrieb diesen Song für meine Schwester Sally! Er handelt davon, sich beschissen zu fühlen, sich wieder aufzurappeln und wie ein Phönix aus der Asche zu erheben. Hoffentlich ist das Lied meiner Schwester ein wenig Inspiritation - wir hatten beide eine schlimme Zeit, aber wir bringen das gerade hinter uns und wie der Phönix werden wir obenauf bleiben. Es ist 'Angels' etwas ähnlich, ich bin mir sicher, dass sie weinen wird, wenn sie es hört."



Silence shields the pain
So you say nothing
Feel they've rigged the game
And you're done with lovin'
Only you can see the darkness in the
Northern lights

Phoenix from the Flames
We will rise together
They will know our names
Can you feel it
Shelter me from pain
I always wanna feel this way
Oh yeah
Just like a phoenix from the flame

Wish they'd take you back
'Cos you miss heaven
Too many bags to pack
So leave them where they are
Tonight you're flying on a golden dream

Phoenix from the flames
We will rise together
They will know our names
Can you feel it
Shelter me from pain
I always wanna feel this way

Everybody's talking
Nobody's listening
Too busy thinking about what you've been missing
Everybody said you're gonna take it
Too far baby now
Well come on

When you're done with lovin'
It comes down to nothing
Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Can you feel it

Phoenix from the flames
We will rise together
They will know our names
Can you feel it
Shelter me from pain
I always wanna feel this way
Oh yeah
Just like a phoenix from the flames

Phoenix from the flames
We will rise together
They will know our names
Can you feel it
Shelter me from pain
I always wanna feel this way
Oh yeah
Just like a phoenix from the flames

Why don't you come and deny it
You know you can't deny it
I always wanna feel this way
Just like a Phoenix from the flames

Default Win Some Lose Some

Win Some Lose Some


Geschrieben von Robbie Williams/Guy Chambers
Veröffentlicht von EMI Music Publishing/BMG Music Publishing



We didn't think it'd last beyond summer
I met her father she met my mother
We didn't have anywhere else to go
She said to me when we grow older
Will we still need young love on
Our shoulders
Does it just fade away
Will we ever know?

She touched my face and called me
Her lover
I never thought that I'd need another

Your cool suburban sun
You're foolin' everyone
You win some you lose some

I didn't know what we had found
Just caught the bus and rode it to town
She wouldn't notice anything else but me

Your cool suburban sun
You're foolin' everyone
You win some you lose some

Dancing at discos
And moaning at phone bills
Torremolinos and sunburnt in high heels
Swap it and sell it
And drop it and smell it
All those years ago

She touched my face and called me
Her lover
I never thought that I'd need another oh

Your cool suburban sun
You're foolin' everyone
You win some you lose some

Your cool suburban sun
You're foolin' everyone
You win some you lose some

Now it's gone, now it's gone.
You win some you lose some.
Now it's gone, now it's gone.
You win some you lose some.
Now it's gone, now it's gone.
You win some you lose some.
Now it's gone, now it's gone.
You win some you lose some.

Win some

Grace


Geschrieben von Robbie Williams/Guy Chambers
Veröffentlicht von EMI Music Publishing/BMG Music Publishing



Sometimes I feel like I am
Sailing on a sunken dream
I try to read the signs
But I don't know what they mean
I know when I'm with you I'm a rich man baby

Grace, I'm not yet born
Come embrace
A soul that's torn
I have got so much to give you

My heart is starved of love
In these radio days
I try to listen hard
To what my conscience says
I know I've sold my soul
I'm going to earn it back now

Grace, I'm not yet born
Come embrace
A soul that's torn
I have got so much to give you

Now that you believe in me
We can fly away
Somewhere safe
I know that you will always be
Giving more than you take

I know when I'm with you, I'm a rich man baby

Grace, I'm not yet born
Come embrace
A soul that's torn
I have got so much to give you
Grace, it can mend if you make my heart your friend

Grace
Grace
Grace
Grace

Default Jesus In A Camper Van

Jesus In A Camper Van


Geschrieben von Robbie Williams / Guy Chambers / Loudon Wainwright
Veröffentlicht von EMI Music Publishing/BMG Music Publishing/Ludlow Music



Ooh we've got a live one, featherweight icon
Heroes let 'im down so he sleeps with the light on
And there's nothin' left to do but kneel down
And pray
Sail away with Caesar if you're a non believer
Everybody get high if you're a diamond geezer
It's the devil that needs ya
So go out and play

Blame yourself it's easier
There's no need to trouble her
You trouble her

Jesus in a camper van
He said sorry to leave you
But I've done all I can
I suppose even the son of God
Gets it hard sometimes
Especially when he goes round
Saying I am the way

And now it's four in the mornin', yes, yes, y'all in
No one can shoot but everybody's scoring
Trust me it's boring
Get down and pray

They told you not to meddle with the bass and the treble
There's dust on your needle and you think that you're a rebel
You're Evel Knievel
So get down and pray

Blame yourself it's easier
There's no need to trouble her
You trouble her

Jesus in a camper van
He said sorry to leave you
But I've done all I can
I suppose even the son of God
Gets it hard sometimes
Especially when he goes round
Saying I am the way

I am the way, I am the way, I am the way
I am, I am, I am, I am, I am, I am the way

Jesus in a camper van
He said sorry to leave you
But I've done all I can
I suppose even the son of God
Gets it hard sometimes

Jesus in a camper van
He said sorry to leave you
But I've done all I can
I suppose even the son of God
Gets it hard sometimes

Blame yourself it's easier
There's no need to trouble her
Blame yourself it's easier
There's no need to trouble her

Jesus in a camper van
He says sorry to leave you
But I've done all I can
I suppose even the son of God
Gets it hard sometimes
Jesus in a camper van
He says sorry to leave you
But I've done all I can
I suppose even the son of God
Gets it hard sometimes

And they want us to grow up
But we don't want to get a job
We all need a decent rock
Where it's all kicking off

Baby it's all right
Baby it's all right
You don't need to cause a fuss
Baby it's all right
Baby it's all right
It's only us

We're just after cheaper thrills
Since the price went up on pills
From Stoke On Trent to Beverley Hills
You know it's all kicking off

Baby it's all right
Baby it's all right
You don't need to cause a fuss
Baby it's all right
Baby it's all right
It's only us
It's only us

Well it's all kicking off

Baby it's all right
Baby it's all right
You don't need to cause a fuss
Baby it's all right
Baby it's all right
It's only us
It's only us

Default Heaven From Here

Heaven From Here


Geschrieben von Robbie Williams/Guy Chambers
Veröffentlicht von EMI Music Publishing/BMG Music Publishing


Robbie sagt:
"Dieser Titel ist so schnulzig, ich bin mir sicher, dass man sich deswegen über mich lustig machen wird. Der Text geht: 'Hab keine Angst, ich werde morgen noch hier sein. Ich leih Dir ein Ohr, ich werde nicht weggehen. Dich liebe ich, also warum vergießt Du eine Träne? Hab keine Angst, Du wirst den Himmel von hier aus sehen.' Es ist eine volkstümliche Ballade und ich schrieb es zu Beginn einer Beziehung in der Hoffnung, dass ich ihr das Lied für den Rest meines Lebens singen könnte!"



Know no fear I'll still be here tomorrow
Bend my ear I'm not gonna go away
You are love so why do you shed a tear
Know no fear you will see heaven from here

I'll shelter you make it alright to cry
And you'll help too 'cos the faith in myself
Has run dry
We are love and I just wanna hold you near
Know no fear we will see heaven from here

I see real love in your eyes
And it fills me up when you start to cry

I just wanna hold you near
We will see heaven from here

Well it all seems out of reach
I will take the blame if it keeps the peace
My shelf-life's short
Wish they'd make it more easy to follow
And I've been caught with nothing but
Love on my mind
We are love don't let it fall on deaf ears
Now it's clear we have seen heaven from here

Default Karma Killer

Karma Killer


Geschrieben von Robbie Williams/Guy Chambers
Veröffentlicht von EMI Music Publishing/BMG Music Publishing


Robbie sagt:
"Wenn man jemanden absolut hasst, ist dies der perfekte Song, weil er alles sagt. Es ist eine Hymne für Menschen, die von jemandem geärgert wurden und in ihren Herzen keine Vergebung finden können. Es hat so viel Wut aus mir herausgespült, dass ich wünschte, es wäre geschrieben worden, bevor ich es schrieb! Es ist sehr rockig und es ist so beängstigend, dass es einen Waffenschein bräuchte."



Are you cut up
Or do you easily forget
Are you still around
Why haven't you managed to die yet
You could prop up the bar in hell

How do you sleep
You've never loved
Why was I never good enough
You thought you'd leave me falling forever
Karma killer

Needless to say
I guess you know I hate you
You're so full of sin
Even the devil rates you
I hope you choke
On your Bacardi and Coke

How do you breathe
Why don't you cry
How come you never ask me why
You're not a man stand and deliver
Karma killer

How do you sleep
You've never loved
Why was I never good enough
You thought you'd leave me falling forever

Karma killer
Karma killer
Karma killer
Karma killer

I hope you choke
On your Bacardi and Coke

Look what you didn't take from me
Look what you didn't take from me
Look what you didn't take from me
Look what you didn't take from me

I don't need to take revenge
Cos they're coming to get you
There's no hope for you my friend
Cos they're coming to get you

Karma killer
Karma killer
Karma killer
Karma killer
Karma killer
Karma killer

Robbie sagt:
"'She's The One' war ein Song, der mir schrecklich viel bedeutete, als ich aus der Entzugsklinik kam. Ich wollte genauso eine Ballade auf meinem Album und wollte, dass der Song von vielen Menschen gehört würde... es ist eine schöne Ballade."



I was her she was me
We were one we were free
And if there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one

We were young we were wrong
We were fine all along
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one

When you get to where you wanna go
And you know the things you wanna know
You're smiling
When you said what you wanna say
And you know the way you wanna play
You'll be so high you'll be flying

Though the sea will be strongI know we'll carry on
Cos if there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one

When you get to where you wanna go
And you know the things you wanna know
You're smiling
When you said what you wanna say
And you know the way you wanna say it
You'll be so high you'll be flying

I was her she was me
We were one we were free
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one

If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
Yeah she's the one

If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
She's the one

Geschrieben von Robbie Williams/Guy Chambers
Veröffentlicht von EMI Music Publishing/BMG Music Publishing



Sitting in the cheap seats underneath the stars
I'm heading back to base, I'll drop you off at Mars
I'm sure I know your face or what star you're from
I try to make conversation but I'm too far gone

I'm a man machine
Drinking gasoline
Super human being
Shooting laser beams

How you gonna leave, when your bags ain't packed
And how you gonna shoot, when we're back to back
How d'you tell a joke, when you can't laugh
You know that you're the punchline, baby take a bath

I'm a man machine
Drinking gasoline
Super human being
I'm a queen's dream

The dog has ate my homework todayIt's not done, it ain't done
I have heard they're not very well in the sun

Cos I'm a man machine
I'm a queen's dream
Drinking gasoline
I'm a queen's dream

Yeah....Help

How you gonna live for love lying on our back
And how you gonna keep it kleen in a dirty mac
How you gonna breathe when you're lost in space
You're dazed and amused
Talking through a different face

Cos I'm man machine
Drinking gasoline
I'm a teen dream
I'm a man machine
I'm a man machine
I'm a man machine
Drinking gasoline
