In 1996, the band started as a … Read Full Bio ↴Milk Inc. was a dance band from Belgium.
In 1996, the band started as a studio-project of 3 young, talented producers: Regi Penxten, Ivo Donckers & Filip Vandueren and released an EP on the underground label of Dance Opera.
In 1997, the song La Vache reaching #21 in UK (although completely unnoticed in their homeland Belgium), started it all. Because of the huge success of this song in France, the French label Hottracks of Scorpio Music released the song under the group name "La Vache", so people could remember it. The vocals were done by Jade 4 U (aka Nikkie Van Lierop). In October 1997, the single Free Your Mind followed.
In February 1998, and still under the name "La Vache" and with the new vocalist Ann Vervoort, the single Inside Of Me was released followed by the album Apocalypse Cow in March and the huge hit In My Eyes in December. "In My Eyes" climbed the Belgian charts quickly and reached #2 though it did not find any success in France and it was the last release in France for Milk Inc. At this point, the band name were changed to be "Milk Inc.".
In April 1999, in Belgium, the single Promise was released and reached #3 on the Belgian charts. The Belgian version of the album Apocalypse Cow came out in May, more than a year later than the French release.
In April 2000, the new single Walk On Water was released and reached #1 on the Belgian charts. In September, Ann Vervoort left Milk Inc. to start her own record label. She was replaced by Linda Mertens. In November, the album Land Of The Living was released. The first single was Livin' a Lie.
In 2001, Never Again was the next single to be released (reached #17 on the Belgian charts). The follow up was named Wide Awake (reached #2 on the Belgian charts).
In 2002, the next song was named Sleepwalker(reached #6 on the Belgian charts). The follow-up was entitled Breathe Without You and it was out on October (reached #7 on the Belgian charts).
In May 2003, their new single called Time was out (reached #10 on the Belgian charts). In August, they announced they would make a cover of a song from The Sun Always Shines On TV. The videoclip was shot in France on the 14th September (reached #5 on the Belgian charts). In October, their brand new album Closer was released. It contained 14 songs including I Don't Care; a duet between Linda and Silvy de Bie (from Sylver). Blown Away was the only instrumental song on this album. Regi appeared for the first time on a Milk Inc. song singing a ballad with Linda in the last track Maybe. In November, Milk Inc. performed in Poland.
In 2004, the new single from Milk Inc. was I Don't Care. The video was shot at Club Atmoz at Hasselt. The new single jumped to #3 in the Belgian charts at the end of March. The follow-up was entitled Whisper, and in October it peaked to #1 in Belgium. The same month, Milk Inc. released their first DVD in Australia. It contained 18 videos, as well as an acoustic set of 5 songs (I Don't Care, Oceans, Walk On Water, Don't Cry and Maybe, recorded especially for this occasion) and a few extras.
In May 2005, Milk Inc's new single was entitled Blind (reached #5 on the Belgian charts). The video was recorded on the 14th of April. It peaked up to #5 in Belgium. In September, Regi released a solo single entitled No Music. It went directly #16 in the Belgian charts. The following month, Go To Hell was released (reached #4 on the Belgian charts).
In May 2006, the new single Tainted Love (a cover version of the famous hit) was released (reached #7 on the Belgian charts). The fourth album Supersized was out in September. It was called after the mega-concert at the Sportpaleis in Antwerp. It included the hit songs Whisper, Blind, Go To Hell, Tainted Love, and 8 brand new songs + 1 bonus song. The next single was Run (reached #7 on the Belgian charts). The next Milk Inc. single was No Angel. The video clip was shot live during Milk Inc. Supersized concert.
In 2007, they earned a golden record for their album Supersized. Milk Inc left their former records company to enter ARS. Their new single Sunrise was out on the 22nd of June. Milk Inc.'s latest single Tonight is still charting very well. It peaked at #6 so far.
Milk Inc. effectively ceased to exist around the mid 2010s.

Milk Inc. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Breathe without you
How can I breathe without you ?
Breathe without you
I'll never breathe without you !
Drowning in the distance from me to you
All colors fade to blue
Getting through another night
Slipping through another day
Heaven seems so far away.
(Chorus)x2
Swimming
Through the images you left behind
reflections of the harbor
The shore I'm trying to find
Getting through another night
Slipping through another day
Heaven seems so far away
Maybe questions I don't get
Maybe answers I regret
But there's to many things
I can't forget
(Chorus)x2
The lyrics of Milk Inc.'s song "Breathe Without You" describe the overwhelming feeling of heartbreak and desperation after a breakup. The chorus repeats the line "How can I breathe without you?" which highlights the intense emotions the singer is feeling since they believe they can't survive without their partner. The first verse talks about the distance between the singer and their former lover, which has turned all colors to blue, indicating their sadness and loneliness. The singer feels like they are drowning and can't seem to get through the days and nights without their ex. The line "Heaven seems so far away" further emphasizes the despair the singer feels.
The second verse talks about the memories left behind by their partner in the form of reflections of the harbor. The singer is trying to find the shore, which might symbolize finding a new way forward or finding a path to reconnect with their partner. However, these attempts are futile, and they keep slipping through each day and night. The line "Maybe questions I don't get, maybe answers I regret" might be talking about the confusion and regret the singer feels after the breakup. There are too many things that they can't forget, which adds to their desperation and emotional upheaval.
Overall, "Breathe Without You" is a poignant depiction of a person's struggle to cope with the aftermath of a breakup. It is a relatable song for anyone who has been through similar emotional turmoil.
