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 ร lesund, 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.
Firebird
Milky Chance Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We'll be understood 'cause you're the truth
Give me a few more off to do
Colour is conquering the love for you
I keep my eyes wide open so I
Can see there's a rain drop falling away
But if your words get suddenly blurred
You're like a firebird in the sky
Shining for a challenger in the night
Just like a firebird is your heart
Keeps me warm and anchoring in the stars
You're like a firebird
You're like a firebird
Courageous wings make things go far
Lingering solitude can rip them off
So let the wind cross your ash thoughts
Giving you the strength to carry on
I keep my eyes wide open so I
Can see if there's a rain drop falling away
But if your words get suddenly blurred
You remember that the truth is always worth seeing
You're like a firebird in the sky
Shining for a challenger in the night
Just like a firebird is your heart
Keeps me warm and anchoring in the stars
You're like a firebird
You're like a firebird
You're like a firebird
You're like a firebird
You're like
You're like

The lyrics of Milky Chance's song Firebird speak of finding an extraordinary person who stands out from the rest, someone who is unique and truthful, and whose love conquers all. The singer describes their companion as a "firebird in the sky", shining bright in the darkness and providing warmth and safety in the cold vastness of the universe. Despite the challenges they face, including the risk of losing their "courageous wings" and feeling lonely, they manage to overcome them through their resilience and determination, with the help of the wind that carries them forward. The singer keeps their eyes open, searching for raindrops that may obscure their vision, but ultimately remains devoted to the truth that their partner embodies.
The song's lyrics are poetic and evoke images of mythical creatures and natural phenomena, such as firebirds and raindrops. The sound of the song is mellow and ethereal, with a blend of acoustic guitar and electronic beats that create a dreamy atmosphere. The repetition of the phrase "you're like a firebird" at the end of each verse and chorus highlights the significance of the person being described and suggests that they are larger than life.
