Faithless Feat. Harry Collier

Artiestinformatie

Land	Verenigd Koninkrijk

Faithless is een Britse Dance-act bestaande uit Sister Bliss, Rollo en Maxi Jazz, opgericht in 1995. Het eerste album Reverence dat ze in 1996 uitbrengen is meteen een succes. Salva Mea (Save Me) en Insomnia weten de Top 40 te halen, en groeien uit tot klassiekers in hun genre. Beide singles komen zelfs tot twee keer toe in de Top 40 terecht, in een iets andere edit weliswaar.

Hun tweede album Sunday 8PM uit 1998 levert Faithless hun eerste en enige nummer 1-hit op: God Is A DJ voert in september dat jaar één week de Top 40 aan.

We Come One, van het derde album Outrospective, haalt in de zomer van 2001 net niet de nummer 1-positie, en blijft steken op nummer 2.

In 2004 is I Want More de (voorlopig) laatste hit voor Faithless.

Rollo komt uit een muzikale familie: zijn jongere zusje Dido scoort tussen 2001 en 2007 ook zeven hits in de Top 40.

Maxi Jazz overleed op 24 december 2022 op 65-jarige leeftijd in zijn slaap.

Songtekst

We think we're heroes, we think we're kings
We plan all kinds of fabulous things
Ohh, look how great we have become

Key in the door, the moment I've been longing for
Before my bag hit the floor
My adorable children rush up screaming for a kiss
And a story they're a gift to this world
My only claim to glory
I surely never knew sweeter days
Blows my mind like munitions
I'm amazed

So much heaven, So much hell
So much love, So much pain
So much more than I thought this world could ever contain
So much war, So much soul
One mans loss, Another mans gold
So much more than I thought this world can ever hold

We're just children, We're just dust
We are small and we are lost
And we're nothing, nothing at all

One bomb, the whole block gone
Can't find me children and dust covers the sun
Everywhere is noise, panic and confusion
But to some another fun day in Babylon
I'm gonna bury my wife and dig up my gun
My life is done so now I got to kill someone

So much heaven, So much hell
So much love, So much pain
So much more than I thought this world could ever contain
So much war, So much soul
Moments lost, moments go
So much more than I thought this world could ever hold

So much more than I thought this world could ever hold
So much more than I thought this world could ever hold

So much heaven, So much hell
So much love, So much pain
So much more than I thought this world could ever contain
So much war, So much soul
Moments lost, moments go
So much more than I thought this world could ever hold
