Williams has received a record 18 Brit Awards, winning Best British Male Artist four times, Outstanding Contribution to Music twice, an Icon Award for his lasting impact on British culture, eight German ECHO Awards, and three MTV European Music Awards. In 2004, he was inducted into the UK Music Hall of Fame after being voted the Greatest Artist of the 1990s. According to the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), he has been certified for 20.2 million albums and 8.66 million singles in the UK as a solo artist. Five of his albums have also topped the Australian albums chart, and has sold 75 million records worldwide, making him one of the best-selling music artists of all time. He also topped the 2000–2010 UK airplay chart. His three concerts at Knebworth in 2003 drew over 375,000 people, the UK's biggest music event to that point. In 2014, he was awarded the freedom of his hometown of Stoke-on-Trent and had a tourist trail created and streets named in his honour. Williams' thirteenth album, XXV was released on 9 September 2022.
After 15 years, Williams rejoined Take That in 2010 to co-write and perform lead vocals on their album Progress, which became the second-fastest-selling album in UK chart history and the fastest-selling record of the century at the time. The subsequent stadium tour, which featured seven songs from Williams' solo career, became the biggest-selling concert in UK history when it sold 1.34 million tickets in less than 24 hours. In 2011, Take That frontman Gary Barlow confirmed that Williams had left the band for a second time to focus on his solo career, although he stated that the departure was amicable and that Williams was welcome to rejoin Take That in the future. Williams has since performed with Take That on three separate television appearances, and collaborated with Barlow on a number of projects such as the West End musical The Band.
21 Something Beautiful
Robbie Williams Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The silence was pitiful, that day
And love is getting too cynical
Passion's just physical, these days
You analyze everyone you meet
But get no sign, loving kind
Every night you admit defeat
If you can't wake up in the morning
'Cause your bed lies vacant at night
If you're lost, hurt, tired or lonely
Can't control it, try as you might
May you find that love never leave you
May you find it by the end of the day
You won't be lost, hurt, tired or lonely
Something beautiful will come your way
The DJ said on the radio
Life should be stereo, each day
And the past, that cast the unsuitable
Instead of some kind of beautiful
You just couldn't wait
All your friends think you're satisfied
But they can't see your soul, no, no, no
Forgot the time feeling petrified
When they lived alone
If you can't wake up in the morning
'Cause your bed lies vacant at night
If you're lost, hurt, tired or lonely
Can't control it try as you might
May you find that love never leave you
May you find it by the end of the day
You won't be lost, hurt, tired or lonely
Something beautiful will come your way
Some kind of beautiful
Some kind of beautiful
Some kind of beautiful
All your friends think you're satisfied
But they can't see your soul, no, no, no
Forgot the time feeling petrified
When they lived alone
If you can't wake up in the morning
'Cause your bed lies vacant at night
If you're lost, hurt, tired or lonely
Can't control it try as you might
May you find that love never leave you
May you find it by the end of the day
You won't be lost, hurt, tired or lonely
Something beautiful will come your way
You won't be lost, hurt, tired or lonely
Something beautiful will come your way
In the song "Something Beautiful" by Robbie Williams, the lyrics explore the complexities of love and the struggles that come with finding it. The first verse sets the scene with the idea that a miracle cannot be manufactured and that love has become too cynical, with passion being purely physical. The second verse delves deeper into the struggle of searching for love, with the singer analyzing everyone they meet but getting no sign of loving kindness. They admit defeat every night and cry themselves to sleep. The chorus then offers a hopeful message, that even in the darkest of times, something beautiful will come your way.
The third verse introduces the idea that life should be stereo, each day, with the past being cast aside for something beautiful. However, the singer couldn't wait and settled for something unsuitable. The bridge then highlights the idea that even though their friends may think they are satisfied, they cannot see the soul and the past moments of feeling petrified when living alone. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the message of hope and that something beautiful will come their way.
Overall, "Something Beautiful" is a song about the struggles of finding love and the hope that it will come one day. It explores the inner turmoil of feeling lost, hurt, tired, and lonely, but reassures the listener that something beautiful will come their way.
