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.
Stolen Dance
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 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 above show someone expressing their desire not to be alone anymore and wanting the person they care about by their side. They acknowledge that the person they care about is no longer around because someone took them away, possibly against their will. The singer hopes that their mind wasn't changed and that their heart is still strong. They describe feeling pain and suspense controlling their mind, possibly stemming from the loss of this person. They want to bring the person they care about to the dance floor as a way to escape their pain for a moment, but they know they can't talk about it openly. The lyrics suggest that they are in a place of "paradise", yet they cannot be open about their feelings, for some reason.
The song seems to be telling a story of two people who were separated by some external force, whether it be physical or societal. The singer longs to be reunited with their loved one but cannot express themselves openly. Instead, they use dancing and music as a way to escape their pain, but they know that it is only temporary. While the lyrics revolve around themes of love, separation, and escapism, they also touch on the idea of societal pressure and the need to keep certain feelings hidden.
Line by Line Meaning
I want you by my side
I need you to be with me
So that I never feel alone again
So I can feel less lonely and lost
They've always been so kind
People have always treated me well
But now they've brought you away from here
But they have taken you away from me
I hope they didn't get your mind
I hope they didn't change your thoughts or feelings
Your heart is too strong anyway
But your heart is too resilient to be broken
We need to fetch back the time
We need to reclaim the time we've lost
They have stolen from us
That has been stolen from us by others
And I want you
I still want you by my side
We can bring it on the floor
We can dance together
You've never danced like this before
You've never danced this way with me
We don't talk about it
We don't need to vocalize our feelings
Dancin' on do the boogie all night long
We should dance all night
Stoned in paradise, shouldn't talk about it
Enjoying ourselves without overthinking it
Coldest winter for me
It's been a tough and depressing time for me
No sun is shining anymore
I can't see any hope or joy
The only thing I feel is pain
The only emotion I'm experiencing is pain
Caused by absence of you
That pain is caused by you not being with me
Suspense controlling my mind
I'm anxious and scared of what's to come
I cannot find the way out of here
I feel trapped and lost
Shouldn't talk about it
We shouldn't overanalyze our feelings or situation
