The duo finished their high school education at Jacob-Grimm Schule. Clemens played in a jazz quartet known as Flown Tones where he played bass guitar. Philipp was a DJ.
Their first single 'Stolen Dance' was released in 2012, topping the charts in countries including Austria, France, Hungary and Switzerland.
In 2013, they released their self-produced album 'Sadnecessary' that was well received, that included the tracks 'Stolen Dance' and 'Down by the River'. The album peaked at number 14 in Germany, and charted at 17 on the Billboard 200 chart.
The band released their second album 'Blossom' on 17 March 2017. Blossom was inspired by the experience Clemens and Philipp had in the last two years and the two different worlds they've jumped into: touring and being home in their private life with family and friends. Lead by the single 'Cocoon', the album also includes 'Bad Things' featuring Izzy Bizu.
In May 2019 the band announced they were producing their third album, which would be titled 'Mind the Moon', recording it at Ocean Sound Recordings in Ålesund, Norway. Three songs from the album, 'Daydreaming' (feat. Tash Sultana), 'The Game' and 'Fado' were released in the months leading up to the album release on 15 November 2019.

Milky Chance Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So that I never feel alone again
They've always been so kind
But now they've brought you away from here
I hope they didn't get your mind
Your heart is too strong anyway
We need to fetch back the time
They have stolen from us
And I want you
We can bring it on the floor
You've never danced like this before
We don't talk about it
Dancin' on do the boogie all night long
Stoned in paradise, shouldn't talk about it
And I want you
We can bring it on the floor
You've never danced like this before
We don't talk about it
Dancin' on do the boogie all night long
Stoned in paradise, shouldn't talk about it
Shouldn't talk about it
Coldest winter for me
No sun is shining anymore
The only thing I feel is pain
Caused by absence of you
Suspense is controlling my mind
I cannot find the way out of here
I want you by my side
So that I never feel alone again
And I want you
We can bring it on the floor
You've never danced like this before
We don't talk about it
Dancin' on do the boogie all night long
Stoned in paradise, shouldn't talk about it
And I want you
We can bring it on the floor
You've never danced like this before
We don't talk about it
Dancin' on do the boogie all night long
Stoned in paradise, shouldn't talk about it
Shouldn't talk about it
And I want you
We can bring it on the floor
You've never danced like this before
We don't talk about it
Dancin' on do the boogie all night long
Stoned in paradise, shouldn't talk about it
And I want you
We can bring it on the floor
You've never danced like this before
We don't talk about it
Dancin' on do the boogie all night long
Stoned in paradise, shouldn't talk about it
Shouldn't talk about it
The lyrics of Milky Chance's "Stolen Dance" are about missing someone special and wanting to be reunited with them. The first verse expresses a desire to have this person back in the singer's life, away from whoever took them away. The second verse talks about how the absence of this person has been painful for the singer and how they cannot find a way to stop thinking about them. These feelings lead to a chorus about wanting to be with this person and to dance with them all night long, while living in a kind of paradise that the singer doesn't want to speak about for fear of ruining it.
The song is fairly ambiguous and can be interpreted in several ways. It could be about a romantic partner who has been separated from the singer, or it could be about a friend or family member who has moved away. However, the sense of longing and the desire to reclaim what has been stolen is clear throughout the lyrics. The upbeat and catchy melody also reflects the energy of wanting to dance and forget about the pain of separation.
Overall, "Stolen Dance" is a romantic and nostalgic song about missing someone and wanting to be with them again, while enjoying the moment in a joyful way.
Line by Line Meaning
I want you by my side
I desire your companionship
So that I never feel alone again
To avoid solitude
They've always been so kind
People have been gracious
But now they've brought you away from here
But you've been taken away
I hope they didn't get your mind
I pray they didn't corrupt your thoughts
Your heart is too strong anyway
Your spirit is resilient
We need to fetch back the time
We must reclaim what was lost
They have stolen from us
It was taken from us
We can bring it on the floor
We can dance together
You've never danced like this before
You've never experienced this kind of dancing
We don't talk about it
We keep it private
Dancin' on do the boogie all night long
We dance the night away
Stoned in paradise, shouldn't talk about it
Inebriated in a blissful place, it's best not to discuss it
Coldest winter for me
The harshest season for me
No sun is shining anymore
No longer is there a source of encouragement
The only thing I feel is pain
Pain is the only sensation I experience
Caused by absence of you
Due to your lack of presence
Suspense is controlling my mind
Anxiety dominates my thoughts
I cannot find the way out of here
I am unsure how to escape
Shouldn't talk about it
It's better not to discuss it
