Due to the almost constant touring and recording with The Prodigy, Maxim rarely had a chance to make his own solo material. After the band started to take it more easy after the intense touring to support The Fat of the Land in late 1998, he finally had the spare time to work and finish some of his projects. That year he released "Dog Day" on the XL promo Against the Grain, which also featured Howlett's "Dirtchamber Remix" of "Diesel Power" (from The Fat of the Land) and Maxim's cover version of the Rolling Stones' "Factory Girl". On 9 August 1999 Maxim released the EP My Web, which contained five tracks. In 2000 Maxim had a collaboration with Skin from Skunk Anansie on the song "Carmen Queasy", which remains his biggest solo success. A second single, "Scheming", was released September 11, and finally the full-length
album Hell's Kitchen, was released on 2 October 2000.
Keith "Keeti" Palmer (born 21 March 1967, in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, England), best known as Maxim or Maxim Reality, is an MC of the British electronica/rave band The Prodigy. He is known for his fierce style of appearance in both music videos and live shows, often wearing coloured contact lenses and kilts. His fierce style is also vibrant in the lyrical sense; in live shows he is known to scream and shout to hype up the audience. He is married and has a son named Tay (born in 2002).
Pre-Prodigy history
Maxim was born in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, England, youngest of four children, he went to the Jack Hunt secondary school, also in Peterborough. He enjoyed writing poetry and verse and began MC-ing around the age of 14. He gained inspiration from his ten year older MC brother, MC Starky Ban Tan, who introduced him into the Peterborough Reggae Soundsystem Scene. At the age of 17 he had his first gig in Basingstoke. Ian Sherman, a fellow musician from Nottingham teamed up with Maxim and they formed Maxim Reality and Sheik Yan Groove, where Sherman made the music and Maxim contributed with lyrics. After recording some tracks together and not getting any attention from the record industries, Maxim decided to disband and went on a three month travel throughout Europe and North Africa. Upon returning to England he moved to London to get more into the music and reggae scene of the metropol. Through a friend, Ziggy, he was offered a gig with a band called The Prodigy, which he accepted. He was planning to do just a few gigs with the band, but he later decided to stay. His maniac appearance and intense performance made him popular in the rave scene.
MC of The Prodigy
Originally joining The Prodigy to make the live shows become more alive, Maxim's lyrical talents were later incorporated in the studio works of the albums after The Prodigy Experience from 1992 (although his vocal contributions were heard in the live track "Death of the Prodigy Dancers" on Experience). Maxim provided lyrics in the single "Poison" from Music For the Jilted Generation (1994), as well as in the hit single "Breathe" from The Fat of the Land (1997). However, on the Prodigy album Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned from 2004, his vocal works were completely absent, apart from the single "Spitfire" and an appearance on the albums first single "Girls" in form of a remix called "More girls". He is still a full member of the band, though, performing in the live shows and, according to their official web site, recording material with Liam Howlett.

Alles Versucht
Maxim Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ich hab dir gegeben, was geht
Doch wir kommen einfach nicht weiter
Das war es, hier endet der Weg
Das ist der Punkt, an dem alles gesagt ist
Und wir uns trotzdem nicht verstehen
Hey, du bist durch nichts zu ersetzen
Doch unsere Stunden sind gezählt
Ich bin stumm, du bist blind
Du wirst mir fehlen, aber glaub mir es bringt nichts
Einen trockenen Schwamm weiter auszuwringen
Ich hab alles versucht, meine Energie ist verbraucht
Mehr hol ich nicht aus mir raus
Ich hab alles versucht, was in meiner Macht stand yeah
Doch es war nie genug
Ich hab alles versucht, meine Energie ist verbraucht
Mehr hol ich nicht aus mir raus
Ich hab alles versucht, was in meiner Macht stand yeah
Doch es war nie genug, nie genug
Und das hier sind meine letzten Reserven
Danach bleibt nichts mehr übrig für mich
Wir zwei stehen an verschiedenen Fronten
Und da ist einfach kein Frieden in Sicht
Und du weißt doch genau wie das abläuft
Mit der, frag mich nicht, tausendsten Chance
Wir rotieren in 'ner endlosen Schleife
Und es wird höchste Zeit endlich da raus zu kommen
Ich hab gesucht, doch es gibt keine Lösung
Ich bin stumm, du bist blind
Du wirst mir fehlen, aber glaub mir es bringt nichts
Einen trockenen Schwamm weiter auszuwringen
Ich hab alles versucht, meine Energie ist verbraucht
Mehr hol ich nicht aus mir raus
Ich hab alles versucht, was in meiner Macht stand yeah
Doch es war nie genug
Ich hab alles versucht, meine Energie ist verbraucht
Mehr hol ich nicht aus mir raus
Ich hab alles versucht, was in meiner Macht stand yeah
Doch es war nie genug, nie genug
Nie genug
Nie genug
Ich hab alles versucht, alles versucht
Ich hab alles versucht, alles versucht
Man ich hab alles versucht, meine Energie ist verbraucht
Mehr hol ich nicht aus mir raus
Ich hab alles versucht, was in meiner Macht stand yeah

Ich hab alles versucht, meine Energie ist verbraucht
Mehr hol ich nicht aus mir raus
Ich hab alles versucht, was in meiner Macht stand yeah
Doch es war nie genug, nie genug
Nie genug ey
Alles versucht yeah
Alles versucht yeah
Nie genug, nie
The song "Alles Versucht" by Maxim captures the emotional pain of a relationship that has reached its end despite the efforts made by one or both partners. The lyrics reflect the frustration and exhaustion felt by a person who has given everything they could, but the situation remains stagnant, and they cannot move forward. The singer acknowledges the love they have for the person but recognizes that it's time to let go as they stand on opposite sides with no hope for peace.
The lyrics suggest that the singer has tried every possible solution to make things work, but it seems like their efforts have gone in vain. The singer mentions that their energy is depleted, indicating that they have invested a lot emotionally and perhaps physically in the relationship. Despite this, there is no forward movement, and the possibility of his partner reciprocating is low, and it is time to let go.
"Alles Versucht" is a heart-wrenching song about acceptance and closure, and it shows the difficulty of moving on from intense romantic relationships. It resonates with anyone who has felt the pain of putting everything they have into a relationship and feeling like it's not enough.

Es tut mir leid, doch ich halt's nicht mehr aus hier
I'm sorry, but I can't take it here anymore
Ich hab dir gegeben, was geht
I gave you everything I could
Doch wir kommen einfach nicht weiter
But we just can't seem to move forward
Das war es, hier endet der Weg
That's it, this is the end of the road
Das ist der Punkt, an dem alles gesagt ist
This is the point at which everything has been said
Und wir uns trotzdem nicht verstehen
And yet, we still don't understand each other
Hey, du bist durch nichts zu ersetzen
Hey, you can't be replaced by anything
Doch unsere Stunden sind gezählt
But our hours are numbered
Ich hab gesucht, doch es gibt keine Lösung
I've searched, but there's no solution
Ich bin stumm, du bist blind
I'm silent, you're blind
Du wirst mir fehlen, aber glaub mir es bringt nichts
I'll miss you, but believe me, it doesn't help
Einen trockenen Schwamm weiter auszuwringen
Squeezing a dried up sponge further
Ich hab alles versucht, meine Energie ist verbraucht
I've tried everything, my energy is depleted
Mehr hol ich nicht aus mir raus
I can't get any more out of myself
Ich hab alles versucht, was in meiner Macht stand yeah
I've tried everything within my power, yeah
Doch es war nie genug
But it was never enough
Und das hier sind meine letzten Reserven
And these are my last reserves
Danach bleibt nichts mehr übrig für mich
After that, there's nothing left for me
Wir zwei stehen an verschiedenen Fronten
The two of us are on different sides
Und da ist einfach kein Frieden in Sicht
And there's simply no peace in sight
Und du weißt doch genau wie das abläuft
And you know exactly how this goes
Mit der, frag mich nicht, tausendsten Chance
With, don't ask me, the thousandth chance
Wir rotieren in 'ner endlosen Schleife
We're stuck in an endless loop
Und es wird höchste Zeit endlich da raus zu kommen
And it's high time to finally get out of there
Nie genug
Never enough
Nie genug
Never enough
Ich hab alles versucht, alles versucht
I've tried everything, everything
Man ich hab alles versucht, meine Energie ist verbraucht
Man, I've tried everything, my energy is depleted
Nie genug ey
Never enough, ey
Alles versucht yeah
Tried everything, yeah
Alles versucht yeah
Tried everything, yeah
Nie genug, nie
Never enough, never

I'm sorry, but I can't stand it here anymore.
I've given you all I can
But we just can't go on
This is it, this is where the road ends
This is the point where it's all said and done
And we still don't understand each other
Hey, there's no substitute for you, but our hours are numbered
I've searched, but there's no solution
I'm mute, you're blind
I'll miss you, but believe me it's no use
To keep wringing out a dry sponge
I've tried everything, my energy is spent
That's all I can get out of myself
I've tried everything in my power
But it was never enough
These are my last reserves
After this there's nothing left for me
We're on different fronts
And there's just no peace in sight
And you know how it goes
With the, don't ask me, thousandth chance
We're in a never-ending loop
And it's high time we got out of there
I've looked, but there's no solution
I'm mute, you're blind
I'll miss you, but believe me it's no use
To keep wringing out a dry sponge
I've tried everything, my energy is spent
That's all I can get out of myself
I've tried everything in my power
But it was never enough

+SwiftComoModoDeVida and for those who wonder
Part 1:
Sorry but i can't stand it here
I gave you possibly everything
We just don't seem to proceed
Thats it, the end of the way
It's the point, where everything was said
And we still dont understand each other
You are irreplaceable, but our time is up
Bridge:
I have searched, but there is no solution
I am mute, you are blind
I'll miss you, but beleave me it's useless
To keep on squeezing a dry sponge
2x Refrain:
I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING
My energy is used up
I can't get more out of me
I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING
in my power yeah
But it was never enough, never enough
Part 2:
These are my last recources
Nothing is left for me afterwards
We both stand on different frontlines
And there is just no peace in sight
You know very well, how this is going down
Please don't ask for the 1000th chance
We're turning in an endless loop
And its about time, to get our of this
Bridge
2x Refrain
Never enough, never enough

Ihr Lieben...es wird besser..es braucht Zeit bis man realisiert,dass es so sein sollte und sogar besser wird.alles Gute für Euch!
Isi lein
Dankeschön, für diese schönen Worte aber so mancher Schmerz ist einfach nicht heilbar. Auch die Zeit heilt nicht jede Wunde.

Stehe sehr kurz vor ner Trennung mit nem sehr wichtigen Menschen für mich, das Lied beschreibt die Situation so gut 🖤. An allen die ähnliches durchmachen, durchmachen mussten, seid stolz auf euch dass ihr Klartext geredet habt, dass ihr versucht habt ne Lösung zu finden und dass ihr ihr selbst seid. Wenn die andere Person gar keine Interesse hat gemeinsam mit euch eine Lösung zu finden, bringt der Weg zusammen weiter nichts mehr. Auch wenns extrem wehtut.
Weedy
@Nekko Ja zum Glück :)
Nekko
Und hast du es durchgezogen
Mel Li
tut mir sehr leid

Wenn man alles versucht hat, kann man sich nichts vorwerfen, muss die Realität annehmen, sich & anderen vergeben und weitergehen.
Markus Rothländer
"sich & anderen vergeben" - das ist ein sehr guter Rat, finde ich!
Claude Duvalle
Dies ist eines der Lieder, die mich voll aus dem Alltag reißen und echt bewegen. Ausgezeichnet produziert! Es ist eine ganz besondere Komposition aus Text, Melodie, Gesangsdarbietung. Das bleibt in meinem Kopf, weil es Emotionen erzeugt.
Bravo Maxim!
Sir Cal Castex
ich hab vor 5 jahren nicht gedacht das ich das lied wieder brauche :(
danke maxim für deine starken worte
