Among his most famous songs is “9pm (Till I Come)”, which topped the charts in the United Kingdom in 1998 and is widely regarded as the UK’s first Trance number one. The track features a guitar riff which became hugely popular. This guitar sound, which he accidentally found while experimenting with a new producing deck, became the trademark of his early hits. ATB continues to evolve and change with every album. His current style involves more vocals and varied sounds, with frequent pianos.
Despite only releasing a few more singles in the UK, namely “Don’t stop!” (No.3, 300,000 copies sold) and “Killer” (No.4, 200,000 copies sold), he still regularly releases music in his native Germany and in other parts of Europe, where he has scored big hits such as “I Don’t Wanna Stop” and his cover of Olive’s 1996 hit “You’re Not Alone”.
“Two Worlds” (2000) is a two-disc album based upon the concept of different types of music for different moods, with titles such as “The World Of Movement” and “The Relaxing World”.
ATB’s latest hits include uplifting “Ecstasy” and chilling “Marrakech”, both from the album “No Silence” (2004) and also released as singles.
In 2005, ATB released “Seven Years”, a compilation of 20 songs, including many greatest hits such as “The Summer”, “Let U Go”, “Hold U”, “Long Way Home”, and “I Don’t Wanna Stop”. Additionally, “Seven Years includes six new tracks: “Humanity”; “Let U Go (2005 Reworked)”; “Believe in Me”; “Trilogie, Pt. 2”; “Take Me Over”; and “Far Beyond”. Many of ATB’s recent albums have featured vocals from Roberta Carter Harrison, singer for the Canadian duo Wild Strawberries.
His next album was co-written by vocalist Tiff Lacey. “Trilogy” was released in 2007. The release of his second single “Justify” was moved from November 2006 to 2007. The single “Renegade” was released on 2007-04-12 and features Heather Nova.
On 2009-05-01 ATB released his latest album “Future Memories” featuring Josh Gallahan (a.k.a. jades) and others. The first single release of Future Memories which was also released on May 1st 2009 features What About Us and L.A. Nights.
His highly anticipated "Distant Earth" album was released 29th April 2011 and was comprised of 2CDs including combined work with Armin Van Buuren, Dash Berlin, Melissa Loretta and Josh Gallahan. A 3rd CD was also produced with all the club versions of the first CD hits. Singles released from the album include Twisted Love ft. Cristina Soto and Gold ft. JanSoon.
To date André continues to maintain a connection with his fans through social networking sites and still goes on tour.
Feel Alive
ATB Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
State of mind, so don't stay close
I am back through all the highs and lows
No more belief in chemicals
So pack your things, you'd better go
There'll be no regrets, so little do you know
Meet me at the station or maybe in another life
I feel, I feel so alive
There'll be no more drifting back and forth in time
Another day, another life
To feed with all that I call mine
Is what it takes, so I go out tonight
Shining lights of crossing cars
An open sky, a million stars
They open up my eyes and this is just because
I feel, I feel so alive
Meet me at the station or maybe in another life
I feel, I feel so alive
There'll be no more drifting back and forth in time
I'll take it slow
I feel so alive
I'll turn back time
Another day, another life
To feed with all that I call mine
Is what it takes, so I go out tonight
I feel, I feel so alive
There'll be no more drifting
I feel, I feel so alive
Meet me at the station, or maybe in another life
I feel, I feel so alive
There'll be no more drifting back and fortn in time
I feel
The lyrics of ATB's "Feel Alive" convey a sense of overcoming a difficult time and embracing a newfound sense of liveliness. The first stanza speaks to the negative impact someone had on the singer's life, leaving them in a state of despair. However, the singer declares that they are back and ready to move on with their life. They no longer have faith in substances to lift their mood, and they urge this person to leave with no regrets.
The second verse begins with the singer acknowledging that they need to take control of their life and feed their inner desires. They go out for the night and are struck by the beauty of the world around them - the shining lights of cars, the open sky, and the stars. This experience opens their eyes and makes them feel alive like never before.
The chorus repeats the singer's declaration of feeling alive, free from the feeling of being adrift in time. They are ready to take things slow and turn back time in a positive sense. The song ends with another repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the transformative power of feeling alive.
Overall, the lyrics of "Feel Alive" are empowering and speak to the importance of self-care and taking control of one's life.
