1) Placebo is… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least four artists with the name Placebo:
1) Placebo is a British alternative rock band formed in London in 1994 by vocalist-guitarist Brian Molko and bassist-guitarist Stefan Olsdal. Drummer Robert Schultzberg joined in late 1994 but left in 1996 shortly after the release of the band's eponymous debut album due to conflicts with Molko. He was replaced the same year by Steve Hewitt. Molko was born in Belgium, and Olsdal and Schultzberg were born in Sweden. Remaining members Molko and Olsdal both grew up in Luxembourg before separately relocating to London and are both British citizens.
Following the release of a demo, a split single, and their eponymous debut album, Placebo gained exposure in 1997 after the single "Nancy Boy" became popular in the UK, a song notorious at the time for its gender-bending content. The band stood out among the Britpop scene they were associated with at the time for their androgynous appearance and musical content, as well as Molko's distinctive voice and lyrics which openly discussed sexuality, mental health, and drug use.
Hewitt left Placebo in 2007 due to personal and musical differences. He was replaced the following year by Steve Forrest. Placebo released two albums with Forrest, who left in 2015 to pursue his own musical career. Since 2015, Placebo has been officially a duo, though augmented with additional musicians.
Placebo has collaborated with various artists over the years, including David Bowie, Justin Warfield, Michael Stipe, and Alison Mosshart. To date, Placebo has released eight studio albums, all of which have reached the Top 20 in the United Kingdom, and have sold around 14 million records worldwide.

하루의 끝
yeah I need that call
밤이 깊어지면
내려와
하늘에 뜬 빛
매일 난 봐 light
내리 쬐는 light
Blind star life
하루의 끝
yeah I need that call
밤이 깊어지면
내려와
하늘에 뜬 빛
매일 난 봐 light
내리 쬐는 light
내게 비춰 light
oh bright light
감아도 보여
oh 갈라진 곳에 떠있어
비춰줘 날 저 까만 우주에서
oh bright light
oh bright light
연기 같아
가까이 가도
잡히지 않는
네 모습이
달려가 매일
닿을 수 있다고
믿으니 그럴 수 밖에
still feel space
난 기다리지 않아
너를 찾아 갈게
멀어져도 if hope was a haze
I made that heat to drop me
oh plz come to me
내게 날갤 달아줘
갇힌 이 지옥은 날
받길 거부하니
괴로울 수 밖에
걸린 시간 위
바퀼 돌려
더 미래로 달려가
you got me
날 욕해도 돼
but I know its not real
Blind star life
하루의 끝
yeah I need that call
밤이 깊어지면
내려와
하늘에 뜬 빛
매일 난 봐 light
내리 쬐는 light
내게 비춰 light
oh bright light
감아도 보여
oh 갈라진 곳에 떠있어
비춰줘 날 저 까만 우주에서
oh bright light
oh bright light
어두운 바람
늘 젖어있던 밤
차게 식은 아침 다
소용 없진 않아
drowning in my room
찾았네 이 빛을 난
jump out to the space
i see the hype inside
더 날아 가
저 까마득한
빛을 따라
저 별위로 날아
i dont wanna cry
밤을 깨워
위로 날아가
빛을 따라가
Ill get light from the space
저 높은 벽넘어
높게 날갤 필게
더 보이지 않아도 돼
Ill get light from the space
저 높은 벽넘어
높게 날갤 필게
더 보이지 않아도 돼
Blind star life
하루의 끝
yeah I need that call
밤이 깊어지면
내려와
하늘에 뜬 빛
매일 난 봐 light
내리 쬐는 light
내게 비춰 light
oh bright light
감아도 보여
oh 갈라진 곳에 떠있어
비춰줘 날 저 까만 우주에서
oh bright light
oh bright light
The lyrics of the song highlight the feeling of being lost in the vastness of space, searching for a guiding light, a blind star life that will lead the way. The singer is seeking hope and solace in the midst of darkness and loneliness that the nights bring. The bright lights that shine in the night sky every day take on a special meaning as they become a constant reminder of the potential of hope and light in the midst of darkness.
The song conveys a sense of longing, a desire to escape from the confines of solitude and find a way to connect with the world. The lyrics describe the singer's willingness to believe that they can touch the stars and be guided by them, despite their distance and inaccessibility. At times, the lyrics seem to express the character's fatigue with their pursuit; however, ultimately, the song remains a hopeful ode to the possibility of finding one's way out of the darkness.

Since Coldplay has turned into electro pop, Placebo is the only British alternative band left since 90s that's constantly evolved while still true to their roots.
