This is actually a great piece of history. It captures the hope of the year 2000, and the 2000's from the people of the 90's. It's a dead shame they didn't get the perfect world they imagined, but this song captures that hope, and keeps it alive for us, to enjoy in their hope more than 20 years on.
Every generation of great musicians made music about hope for a better world/future. Unfortunately none of them got their wish. That being said, long live this song forever, one of my all time favorite songs
@ag2407 dead shame really. Every generation thought they were the difference that needed to be made until the change was too late. Glad that we can all experience the music that our past generations listened to through their lives though. It'd be impressive if it wasn't terrifying
Heard it at TJ's at around 830AM this morning, brought a tear to my eye. Thinking back for a second to when I was 11 in 1999 and first heard it and how simpler the world was, how provincial my life was, humming it to myself in the outfield at baseball practice. Couldn't even contemplate the way the future turned out. But hey, maybe the same applies for the future going forward.
Anyone else feel like Robbie would have made a killer bond theme?? I just feel like his voice would be perfect for a bond track shame it will never happen
@@inthetearoom a lot of things relating to time are arbitrary: the number of hours in a day, the length of a second, number of months in a year. when counting years, it's best to have arbitrary starting point than nothing at all. or worse, competing calendars. i find time zones annoying as f***. wish we could agree to get rid of them and deal with Zulu time. or something else equally arbitrary.
I was 15 when this song came out. I was in love with it then and I am still in love with it now that I am 37. The only difference now, is that every time Robbie Williams says "Youth is wasted on the young, before you know it's come and gone too soon", it hits me real hard, because I just realized how the years went by so fast.
Oh this takes me back. It was October, 2000 when I was diagnosed with cancer. This was one song I listened to constantly and it provided me some escape from my sickness. All the senses from that time come back.
Me too...the world of 1999. Reminds me of being 21, beautiful, and a rock star on the dance floor ( by my own proclamation). Now my oldest is 20, it's a little surreal lol.
The best James Bond we never had.❤ What a missed opportunity for the franchise. This song too is one of his best, his voice really mellow and fabulous.
@@eyeseer11783 was a very good year. Mozart wrote his Great Mass. The Montgolfier Brothers went up in the first hot air balloon. And England recognized the independence of the United States. 😊
As someone who’s struggled with anxiety and depression their entire life, his documentary really struck a cord with me. Some parts were really hard to sit through, but I’m glad they made it
I remember this song back in 1999. My father was listening to it and watching the music video and he was laughing because he understood the lyrics. Now that I'm older, I understand too. Rest in peace Dad. I miss you.
British people can be proud for the creation of suicidal misfits. Don't get me wrong, it's not the suicidal misfits I'm at arms with, it's the so called 'proud' British people. You know, the ones that spite people behind their backs just because they're jealous of them? I kinda think Robbie was even more pissed off than I am about the lies. Wake up and see the sarcasam in my 'eyes'.
I was a 16 year old bus boy at a restaurant on NYE 1999-2000 and they played this song (obviously). Always brings me right back to being a 16 year old kid, can't believe so many years have already passed.
Damn , small world, I was in NY living in Harlem and the same age if being 16, walking time square and vibing to this...I'll be 39 yrs old in November...man time flies by

Timeless. Thank you Mr Williams. 💕💕💕💕
I hope your little dude will forever know and LOVE this song, really! My son is 38, and I raised him on Gino Vanneli, and to this day he is still a fan. When I was pregnant with my daughter, now 43, I listened to Mozart constantly. She loves Mozart, but she is a big fan of Prince (modern day Mozart)) Music is sooo important in a child's life, even thought they don't know it. Both my kids, and my grandkids, are music maniacs. They love every genre of music, except jazz or country (they take after their mama). I used to hate metal, hard rock, until they started joining up with symphonies. Then all of a sudden orchestra and hard rock became a beautiful sound. Metallica for instance. .No Leaf Clover. Check it out.
I always thought he was an amazing songwriter and singer, but after watching his documentary on Netflix I have admiration and gratitude for what he did and I now his songs has a new meaning for me, because we share the same path about accepting who we are mate! I hope to see you perform pretty soon close to Mexico or San Diego!
And though the song did NOT present it, the Fleming novel reminded us that we live the first time when we are born; the second time when we look death in the face. In my case that was true. That truth is part of the wondrous; divine truth of the song. Obviously, the Millennium also references the End of the World, and then many of us will hope and pray to live a second time, changed...
As an adult, I hear the deeper meaning in this song. The world started getting weird in the late 90s. I could feel it changing, a lot of people could. And not for the better
Robbie Williams is one of the most underrated artists ever. I swear-- great voice, fantastic songwriter...he can write radio friendly pop songs, gut wrenchingly sad breakup songs, love songs that make you feel like a teenager falling in love for the first time.... I just adore this man!!
He’s worth 300 million so he’s def not underrated.. dudes one of the biggest pop stars in UK history.. As an American myself.. I can say it’s not that he’s under rated.. but America is over rated.
Love this song. I’m 33 years old going on 34 in a month and a half and I remember when I was 9-10 years old I would listen to this song every morning on MTV or VH1 before I went to school for like 3 years straight. It ended up being one of those songs that’s stuck with me since.
after ABSOLUTELY falling in love with song when I visited the UK in 1999, I've checked out Robbie Williams. Millenium is the only song that I will listen to OVER and OVER, 24 years later!!!! I LOVE it, and it's always fresh.
You know what Robbie Williams 25 Years Later! That Song is still Booming like it's New! Everyone keep Dancing like it's 1999 because it was a Time to be Alive!
Havent heard this song for like 6 years popped into my head in the shower this morning because my conditioner contained 'Selenium' so I was like 'seleniuuummmmmm' and now here i am 2 beers later
I heard this song in the background of an MTV show in the summer of 2000, immediately loved it but had no idea what it was called. I've been searching for it for 23 years. Twenty-three years!! I finally just found it. Can't describe this feeling. The relief, sheesh. Love it
The pain of nostalgia, if unchecked, at times becomes physical. I was 30, just got out of 11 years of the Navy, everything seems so bright and optimistic. When the pain is overwhelming I just remember that we are here NOW and should not take it for granted. 20 years from now, will you feel pain for today?
This song popped into my head thus morning on my way to work. Words are true, music is catchy, video is bomb, and Robbie is not hard on the eyes either. Still a banger! This song is a whole vibe. Thank you Robbie. Anybody here with me listening?

So nostalgic, so timeless, one of my closest friends in high school looked exactly like Robbin too so it's crazy so much wisdom in this song and the delivery is priceless
My all time favorite RW track. Quintessential of its time too. 1999 was incredibly special. You had to be there to understand the feeling. Bring me back.
90s...the best era ever...WHEN music movies people was truly awesome and was writing history...everything was unique and awesome...wish we could go back and live them again...
@Amsterdam 2032 early Genzies were toddlers in 1998, people born in the late 90s cannot remember anything about the beginning of the millennium or the Y2K, even the last millennials were kids in that year, so this song practically represents the era of the oldest millennials (1981-1988). The Spice girls did something similar with the song Move over (Generation next). Musical era of genzies started with Ariana Grande, Fifth Harmony and the second wave of genzies is just starting in this decade with Olivia Rodrigo, etc. But if you like Robbie and you feel part of the Gen Y, no problem, we accept you.
@@ivjimene Good point! Im not apart of either but I like that you were polite with your response, I know many people that would have jumped at getting into an argument with me. I love Robbie, Feel is definitely his best song in my opinion.
I haven't watched this MV since 1999-2000 when I was 9 years old. I used to watch this on VH1 and MTV here in the U.S. and this song was my first introduction to Robbie Williams. I adore this song and the nostalgia it gives hits hard.
absolutely brilliant song and using the tune from You Only Live Twice for a James Bond inspired song is pure genius so-called musicians of today could learn a thing or two
This song for me is legendary. In 2000, I was gearing up, clubbing, enjoying everything. This song was me and my friend’s theme song for The Club every time we’d go out. This was just a magical time.
i know how u feel. I'm from Singapore and my friends are doing the same. "Oh Robin Williams? I thought he pass? " Not sure if they are doing it on purpose, lol annoying haha
Wow this is crazy- just watched the documentary on Netflix and always thought he was just a song writer with just a few songs of his own and a manager and I didn’t realize how big he was! I love him even more now. ❤ let’s go Rob!
Robbie on the boat dressed in white looks so much like a young Sean Connery .. come on Robbie more music please .. and I played this in memory of Sean himself may he rest in Peace x
Every time I'm failing in life, I listen to this song, and think about listening to it as a middle schooler, and seeing how bright the future was. And I realize. I still have a chance
This song is just sensational!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t even count the amount of times I’ve listened to this song this year alone! At least 100 that’s for sure! Literally, it never gets old! 😍
After wondering what song those beautiful string instruments' sounds were coming from, tonight I watched "007: You Only Live Twice" and recognized them from the main theme performed by Nancy Sinatra. Then after a small research on Wikipedia, looking through the cover versions as I obviously thought it was a recent song, I found out that its instrumental base was sampled and used within Robbie William's "Millenium" and as soon as I began listening to it here on this video, I immediately recognized the sounds I used to remember. So after being desperate about not being able to find the song for years, I just discovered that I had it in my iTunes collections for all this time, under my nose, without knowing it. Incredible ... I feel satisfied now :)
I remembered watching this on TRL and MTV in the 90’s (late) and always fell in love with this song. The instrumental is so captivating. Oh yeah I’m a 80’s baby and I miss the good old days when things were slight innocent.
Yeah, it’s not that things back then were innocent compared to today. It’s that we’re more interconnected than ever before, as a result, the truth and its gory details are now known and there’s no going back or hiding despite various attempts to seal the Pandora’s box that’s social media.
Who didn't want to be Bond? Perhaps there is a small part of each of us that still does. This song and video so beautifully, yet sarcastically provides a mirror to show what our Bond self image really looks like. It does the same for the year 2000 and our dreams of a better future. All of the elements that Robbie included from his own YOLT inspired riff, to the jet pack and Bond car make this truly British and memorable..
I feel nostalgic for times I never lived in. That's a frickin heavy and depressing feeling. Even more depressing than for times I actually have been living.
Are you saying you were too young when this video came out, or weren’t even born yet? Either way it’s a valid feeling. I’ve felt that way too, but just now I miss 1998-2001 (pre-9-11] the most. I was 13 in 2000. Such a cool time to grow up in.
@@ZiomZiomCreeper I felt that way about the 60s. Everyone not at war seemed to be fighting for something with peaceful protests, ending segregation, music was still original and better than much of what's popular today, the fashion, and so on. Exciting and important times. But here we are today with peaceful protests and fighting against racism all over again. (Except with the riots and Chaz, its not all peaceful...) I doubt anyone will ever look back on 2020 and say "Boy, I sure wish I was around for that!"
It was an amazing time. More mystery to life... Now everything is in your face all the time.. Everyone is trying to sell their brand.. A more genuine time
Don't be. 90s were hell as a young adult. Unemployment and overall a difficult economic situation in the world. If you like the music enjoy it here on youtube and after the pandemic go to a retro festival with music from the 90s. Take care!
The sound of this track transports me to a time were i had less things to worry about and the simplest things offers me the highest degree of satisfaction ever yes you know what i'm referring to the 90's please... Robbie Williams millennium i exhausted this track till there was nothing left of it...British artists have contributed immensely to the alternative scene..
funny because people were saying that about other songs when this came out. man the 80s had some great music not like today Robbie Williams crap. don't be like them. we can like this song and not rip every piece of music that comes out recently.
Talent is something a person cannot ignore - you feel it in yourself, it is how one uses it and makes choices. I watched the doc last night; I consider Robbie a serious talent - vocally and songwriting and as a performer - but fame is a whole other beast. It is too bad humans feel fame is part of the equation, it is just the way we are built but fame is a negative aspect of having talent. You have to work very hard to control the need for fame and the results thereof. Robbie, it made me happy to see you happy at home and courageous on stage again.
One of the best robbie williams songs in my personal opinion.
I love this song
Lazy days, no regret , I loved an angel also superb
I was 19-20 when this came out
Agree
Agree 100%.
This is actually a great piece of history. It captures the hope of the year 2000, and the 2000's from the people of the 90's. It's a dead shame they didn't get the perfect world they imagined, but this song captures that hope, and keeps it alive for us, to enjoy in their hope more than 20 years on.

Most underrated song of Robbie. For me, it's one of his best.
lol it was by FAR his biggest hit in the US, not exactly underrated
Most underrated of his singles I would say

This song is very nostalgic, a reminder of broken promises and a bright future which never came, could be now the anthem of postmodernism.😢

I heard this song in the background of an MTV show in the summer of 2000, immediately loved it but had no idea what it was called. I've been searching for it for 23 years. Twenty-three years!! I finally just found it. Can't describe this feeling. The relief, sheesh. Love it
They played the crap out of this song in 99/2000. I'm surprised you only heard it in the background.
Me too omg geesh!!!!!
The most realest words ever in a song. We all enjoy the madness, cause we know we're going to fade away.
Worshipping the devil you will..
It's up there with "But were never gonna survive unless, we get a little crazy"
RUSTY! YOU, Sir, are correct!
The pain of nostalgia, if unchecked, at times becomes physical. I was 30, just got out of 11 years of the Navy, everything seems so bright and optimistic. When the pain is overwhelming I just remember that we are here NOW and should not take it for granted. 20 years from now, will you feel pain for today?
Thats poetry, man.
I'm 32 now and remember this song like it was yesterday!
I feel your pain and can relate my brother , you are not alone , the 90s nostalgia is painful
I remember when this song came out in sometime in 1998
Such a great tune
I was obsessed with this song and Robbie in 1999. I was 16, it was fun.
Great homage to every Bond movie, composed by John Barry. Such recognizable themes
This song brings me back to end of 1999... countdown on 31 December 1999... Welcoming a new era, a new year 2000
Yup that's how I remember it.
So much hope for the future...what went wrong?
Yup he performed on stage
H
My thoughts exactly! I was thinking the same thing.. .it takes me back to being ten years old lol
Robbie Williams is a legend
agree with you ...
This song popped into my head thus morning on my way to work. Words are true, music is catchy, video is bomb, and Robbie is not hard on the eyes either. Still a banger! This song is a whole vibe. Thank you Robbie. Anybody here with me listening?

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 the day that we were born
Got to slow down,
cause we'll low down.
Round and round in circles
live a life of solitude
'till we find ourselves a partner someone to relate to
Then we slow down,
before we fall down.
We've got stars directing our fate
and we're praying it's not too late
'cause we know we're falling from grace
Millennium
Live for liposuction
detax for your 'rents
overdose for Christmas and give it up for Lent
My friends are all so cynical refuse to keep the faith
We all enjoy the madness 'cause we know we're gonna fade away.
We've got stars directing our fate
and we're praying it's not too late
'cause 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
Millennium
We've got stars directing our fate
and we're praying it's not too late
'cause we know we're falling from grace
Millennium
(Sometimes you know)
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

So nostalgic, so timeless, one of my closest friends in high school looked exactly like Robbin too so it's crazy so much wisdom in this song and the delivery is priceless
Who's watching in 2024? ❤❤❤
Us aul lads and lasses
OH YEAH!
Who's seen Robbie Williams recently? Aged more like milk than wine.
me and i'll be here in 2025 !
Paris septembre 2024❤
My all time favorite RW track. Quintessential of its time too. 1999 was incredibly special. You had to be there to understand the feeling. Bring me back.
90s...the best era ever...WHEN music movies people was truly awesome and was writing history...everything was unique and awesome...wish we could go back and live them again...
Same!
I am headed that way.
Same here
@@archiecoolsdown5854 can I go with you
Amen to that
Millennials, Robbie was that one who baptized our generation with this song 😻
Very well said, my friend; this should be the anthem of all of us, the millennials!
But..... the Millennial generation started in 1981... and ended before this song even existed.... I assume you are referring to Generation Z
That's my song, because I'm from 85. So, I'm Millenial. 🤣
@Amsterdam 2032 early Genzies were toddlers in 1998, people born in the late 90s cannot remember anything about the beginning of the millennium or the Y2K, even the last millennials were kids in that year, so this song practically represents the era of the oldest millennials (1981-1988). The Spice girls did something similar with the song Move over (Generation next). Musical era of genzies started with Ariana Grande, Fifth Harmony and the second wave of genzies is just starting in this decade with Olivia Rodrigo, etc. But if you like Robbie and you feel part of the Gen Y, no problem, we accept you.
@@ivjimene Good point! Im not apart of either but I like that you were polite with your response, I know many people that would have jumped at getting into an argument with me. I love Robbie, Feel is definitely his best song in my opinion.
I haven't watched this MV since 1999-2000 when I was 9 years old. I used to watch this on VH1 and MTV here in the U.S. and this song was my first introduction to Robbie Williams. I adore this song and the nostalgia it gives hits hard.
The way, this dude,manage his way into Pop Music. Paving his own way while paying his due.
Hats Off.
absolutely brilliant song and using the tune from You Only Live Twice for a James Bond inspired song is pure genius
so-called musicians of today could learn a thing or two
praszu nothing can be done to make this song any better its perfect but thats just my opinion
Love this song.
But prefer Nancy Sinatra's original "You Only Live Twice"...
Gives me some serious goosebumps whenever i listen to it.
Thomas Evans check Montovani's version!
@Karl M that's...basically what I said 😒
Robbie is so sexy 😍
Robbie Williams le véritable James Bond !!
This was the sound of the 2000 start point.... I can feel it from this energy. It was so ready for the new era....
This song for me is legendary.
In 2000, I was gearing up, clubbing, enjoying everything. This song was me and my friend’s theme song for The Club every time we’d go out. This was just a magical time.
Williams is James Bond and John English, all in one.
how is he Johnny English
Robbie, for the next James!
I'll never forget the first time I heard and saw this. I thought Robbie Williams was the coolest person in the universe...
Every New Years, I still come back to this song. ♥️ 🎉
Same
Much better than Will Smiths Willenium 🤣
I'm from the US and I love Robbie Williams! every time I mention him to my friends they're like "you mean Robin williams?" I have to face palm myself
rip Robbie Williams
I think you mean RIP Robin Williams.
+John Holmwood yer I do lol
i know how u feel. I'm from Singapore and my friends are doing the same. "Oh Robin Williams? I thought he pass? " Not sure if they are doing it on purpose, lol annoying haha
i feel sympathy for them !!! poor guys !!! they know only Rihanna and etc.....
16 years have passed but still the best music ever
Love the sampling of Nancy Sinatra's "You Only Live Twice".
You only live twice: once when you are born, and once when you look death in the face. _-Bassho_ (Japanese poet, 1643-94)
John Barry's "You Only Live Twice".
Nancy was just the singer...
never knew that!
21CCommunIT True.
Sampling is putting it mildly.
What a great James Bond Robbie Williams would be! Perfect for the role! Beautiful, talented man- now a husband and dad! 🙏🏻🩷🐾
I still remember 1999 like it was yesterday... you poor suckers, you'll never know how thrilling it was. ;-)
Right there with you!!
yeap , a calendar change is always a thrilling experience .
I was 4 :P
I was 18 at the time. Miss those days
Tru
That undernote which is a tribute to the notes used in Your Only Live Twice is part of the reason this song speaks to me every time.
The coolest guy ever

+blackfairy402 After Steve McQueen, of course.
He always is

Please tell me you are being sarcastic.
Robbie Williams is not cool at all.
Ryan Fanstone I am scrolling through opinions..... Trying to find a logical answer to Robbie Williams success......... I just don't get it.... 🤔
Wow this is crazy- just watched the documentary on Netflix and always thought he was just a song writer with just a few songs of his own and a manager and I didn’t realize how big he was! I love him even more now. ❤ let’s go Rob!
Robbie on the boat dressed in white looks so much like a young Sean Connery .. come on Robbie more music please .. and I played this in memory of Sean himself may he rest in Peace x
Rest in Peace,Sir Sean . . .
I like the sample of the “You only live Twice” theme.
It's a remix of a theme from a Bond film 👍
Googled it and yes i have to agree
So many great songs from this guy. Pop at its best.
Every time I'm failing in life, I listen to this song, and think about listening to it as a middle schooler, and seeing how bright the future was. And I realize. I still have a chance
You don't have to make it big, just be the best person you can be, then you will have made it.
Maintain the rage !!Fuck it !!We are all in the same boat ,sinking to oblivion !!!!!
Buy bitcoin trust me
Nerd lol
James Bond feels + 2000s Vibe = PERFECTION
Best Robbie Williams song
This song is just sensational!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t even count the amount of times I’ve listened to this song this year alone! At least 100 that’s for sure! Literally, it never gets old! 😍
Better times. Late 90s/early 2000s were so good!
Zeng Vuh special times
Prefer the early 90s.2001 gave us 9/11-this was 'good' was it?idiot.
that fuckin TRUE!
Imogen Imeson
That may have sucked, but we shouldn’t focus too much on it.
You should try 1970's...peaceful!
American newcomer to Robbie Williams music here. His songs are fantastic. So far this is my favorite. Feels so good in my car❤😊
Have you checked out Escapology yet?
@@notsureiL I am into the album presently thanks to your suggestion. This may take a while 😎
After wondering what song those beautiful string instruments' sounds were coming from, tonight I watched "007: You Only Live Twice" and recognized them from the main theme performed by Nancy Sinatra. Then after a small research on Wikipedia, looking through the cover versions as I obviously thought it was a recent song, I found out that its instrumental base was sampled and used within Robbie William's "Millenium" and as soon as I began listening to it here on this video, I immediately recognized the sounds I used to remember. So after being desperate about not being able to find the song for years, I just discovered that I had it in my iTunes collections for all this time, under my nose, without knowing it. Incredible ... I feel satisfied now :)
Vylkeer me too!🎶
Longing for a song and finally remember it after years is special
One of my favorite Sean Connery Bond films.
Still one of my favs songs EVER !!!
ከፐከፐከ9ከፐከ
I'm still listening in 3018!!!
Me too! Great beat!!!!
It came from an amazing album where every song was awesome, still listen to it today.
No talking about sex or drugs having a futile life, nothing but Feel good pop.
We got stars and we've got entertainers. Robbie Williams belongs in both categories...
With "Millennium" you have to love the 007 spoofs...

Cannot believe quarter of a century has passed since this masterpiece where did the time go?
I remembered watching this on TRL and MTV in the 90’s (late) and always fell in love with this song. The instrumental is so captivating. Oh yeah I’m a 80’s baby and I miss the good old days when things were slight innocent.
Yeah, it’s not that things back then were innocent compared to today. It’s that we’re more interconnected than ever before, as a result, the truth and its gory details are now known and there’s no going back or hiding despite various attempts to seal the Pandora’s box that’s social media.
Yup trl request live after school.
Same here and I was born in 87. I get an overwhelming awesome feeling reminiscing about the 90s; especially the late 90's. I remember it vividly.
What good old days are you talking about? Things were not more innocent back then at all
One of the best songs and singers ever! His voice is amazing and unique, can't get enough of it. ♥
I remember listening to this song being a little child. Felt unreal to hear it again. Ah the good old times
Who didn't want to be Bond? Perhaps there is a small part of each of us that still does. This song and video so beautifully, yet sarcastically provides a mirror to show what our Bond self image really looks like. It does the same for the year 2000 and our dreams of a better future. All of the elements that Robbie included from his own YOLT inspired riff, to the jet pack and Bond car make this truly British and memorable..
I feel nostalgic for times I never lived in. That's a frickin heavy and depressing feeling. Even more depressing than for times I actually have been living.
Are you saying you were too young when this video came out, or weren’t even born yet? Either way it’s a valid feeling. I’ve felt that way too, but just now I miss 1998-2001 (pre-9-11] the most. I was 13 in 2000. Such a cool time to grow up in.
I wasn't born yet at this time. I was born in 2002. Soo yeah, I feel (or rather felt) nostalgic for the times I've never actually lived in.
@@ZiomZiomCreeper I felt that way about the 60s. Everyone not at war seemed to be fighting for something with peaceful protests, ending segregation, music was still original and better than much of what's popular today, the fashion, and so on. Exciting and important times. But here we are today with peaceful protests and fighting against racism all over again. (Except with the riots and Chaz, its not all peaceful...) I doubt anyone will ever look back on 2020 and say "Boy, I sure wish I was around for that!"
It was an amazing time. More mystery to life... Now everything is in your face all the time.. Everyone is trying to sell their brand.. A more genuine time
Don't be. 90s were hell as a young adult. Unemployment and overall a difficult economic situation in the world. If you like the music enjoy it here on youtube and after the pandemic go to a retro festival with music from the 90s. Take care!
Robbie Williams legend
It is right
tax dodger
The sound of this track transports me to a time were i had less things to worry about and the simplest things offers me the highest degree of satisfaction ever yes you know what i'm referring to the 90's please... Robbie Williams millennium i exhausted this track till there was nothing left of it...British artists have contributed immensely to the alternative scene..
Best comment ever. Take me back
ICONIC.. 20 years later.. still amazing
I bought this cd when i was 15, i am now 35 haha, still love it
im 35 too , and love it :)
I recorded this on VHS back then the last days of VHS!
Haha! Same and 35 too! ✌
Oooh Yeah❣❣❣ ❤ We Live Robby❣
I bought a cassette
Love this chorus - always gives me chills and brings a huge smile to my face!
This song is amazing, such a good singer, it's better than the crap we hear now a days. Love you Robbie Williams.
I AM DEFINITELY 100% IN AGREEMENT WITH YOU :D
It had style and class
Robbie us a legend!!!!
funny because people were saying that about other songs when this came out. man the 80s had some great music not like today Robbie Williams crap.
don't be like them. we can like this song and not rip every piece of music that comes out recently.
@@Kruppt808 thank you!!
Talent is something a person cannot ignore - you feel it in yourself, it is how one uses it and makes choices. I watched the doc last night; I consider Robbie a serious talent - vocally and songwriting and as a performer - but fame is a whole other beast. It is too bad humans feel fame is part of the equation, it is just the way we are built but fame is a negative aspect of having talent. You have to work very hard to control the need for fame and the results thereof. Robbie, it made me happy to see you happy at home and courageous on stage again.
