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.
Make Me Pure-easymp3s
Robbie Williams Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To reel 'em in
It's a song I sung before
And a song I'm gonna sing again
I mean every word
I don't mean a single one of them
Oh Lord, make me pure
But not yet
Tell a joke
Tell it twice
If no one else is laughing there why am I
I split myself both times and laugh till I cry
Oh Lord, please make me pure
But not yet
I don't have to try
I just dial it in
I've never found a job that for me was worth bothering
I got a ton of selfish genes and lazy bones
Beneath this skin
Oh Lord, make me pure
But not yet
Smoking kills
Sex sells
I've got one hand in my pocket but the other one looks cool as hell
I know I'm gonna die so my revenge is living well
Oh Lord, make me pure
But not yet
I stopped praying
So I hope this song will do
I wrote it all for you
I'm not perfect but you don't mind that, do you?
I know you're there to pull me through, aren't you?
So I look for love
I like the search
And I'll be standing for election all across the known universe
Let every president get the country she deserves
Oh Lord, make me pure
But not yet
And I've been seeing
Somebody's wife
She said she'd leave him for me and I said that wasn't wise
You can't lie to a liar because of all lies
Oh Lord, please make me pure
Not yet
In Robbie Williams's song "Make Me Pure", he has delved deep into himself and explored his flaws, vices, and bad habits. Throughout the song, he seems to be asking for forgiveness from Lord Almighty, but not yet, indicating that he is not yet ready to change. He echoes that he has sung the same song before and will again, indicating that he has not changed despite his pleas for forgiveness.
In the first verse, he talks about how he can easily sing a song to attract people, but he doesn't mean any of the words he sings. He then goes onto the chorus, where he asks the Lord to make him pure but not yet, indicating that he still wants to enjoy his vices and flaws. In the second verse, he talks about how he can easily tell a joke but go unnoticed, indicating that he is not good enough or that no one cares. He then goes onto use the metaphor of having one hand in his pocket, indicating that he is not taking life seriously.
The third verse is perhaps the most striking, where he talks about seeing somebody's wife and how she wanted to leave her husband for Williams, but he knew that she would lie to him eventually. He goes on to ask the Lord for help, indicating that he knows he cannot change himself unless he seeks divine assistance. The song ends with Williams standing for elections in the known universe, indicating that he has given up on himself and is searching for somebody else to lead him.

Fall into you, is all I seem to do
When I hit the bottle
'Cause I'm afraid to be alone
Tear us in two, is all it seems to do
As the anger fades
This house is no longer a home
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
And everything that's true
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
Because I want you too
Because I want you too
Because I want you too
Because I want you
Because I want you
Stumble into you, is all I ever do
My memory's hazy
And I'm afraid to be alone
Tear us in two, is all it's gonna do
As the headache fades
This house is no longer a home
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
And everything that's true
Don't give up on the dream
Don't give up on the wanting
Because I want you too
Because I want you too
Because I want you too
Because I want you
Because I want you
Because I want you too
Because I want you too
Because I want you too
Because I want you
Because I want you
Fall into you is all I ever do!
When I hit the bottle
'Cause I'm afraid to be alone
Tear us in two
Tear us in two
Tear us in two
Because I want you too
Because I want you too
Because I want you
Because I want you
Because I want you too
Because I want you too
Because I want you
Because I want you
