… Read Full Bio ↴The Scientist, aka Phivos (Phil) Sebastiane, grew up in Basildon Essex.
When he first listened to the Doctor Who Theme music made by Delia Derbyshire and Ron Grainger and fell in love with the synthesizers. Inspired by the legacy of Depeche Mode, in 1982, at age 9, he bought his first records. In 1984, at eleven, he got his first synthesizer - a Yamaha CS01 MKII, a monophonic analog. He took six months of organ lessons for the basics.
His first close contact with the realm of electronic music happened when he listened to the Synth Pop classics of The Human League, and, of course, D.M. At twelve, his older sister Nina, took him to some concerts, such as the early tours of Siouxies and the Banshees, The Human League and even Depeche Mode. This gave him a whole new direction and inspiration.
Phivos loved all of the quality synthesizer music, from ambient to Detroit techno. He first heard the Chicago sound at school, and got into the futuristic sound of Detroit some time later at the end of the 80's. He got involved in Alternative Radio Station Phaze One, whose members were Fabio, Grooverider, Dave Angel and The Passion Crew.(Jumpin Jack Frost and Bryan Gee). The named him The Scientist. They used to call Phil 'Q' a while before because of his intellectual skills. Then for a party at the Fridge in Brixton, they decided to write The Scientist on the flyers, an artistic name that definitely stuck. One night at the Fridge, he found himself suddenly sharing a dressing room with The Shut Up & Dance crew, who was doing a live there.
He met their mixing professional at that time: DJ Hype, with whom he created The Exorcist (& Champion Sound), They produced "The Bee", which hit No.1 on the independent dance charts selling more than 35,000 records. It was named track of the year in 1990 by Kiss FM. Then came The Exorcist, and after a split between house and hardcore and a year without releasing anything, Phivos left Kickin Records and started to produce under the name Pure Science.
Not to be confused with Scientist, the reggae/dub artist.

The Scientist Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Breathing fire, flying, what a guy
And we ride...
'Cause it's Mothra Vs. We Are Scientists
Mothra Vs. We Are Scientists
Mothra Vs. We Are Scientists
Then he ate a sandwich
It was ham
And we ride...
'Cause it's Mothra Vs. We Are Scientists
Mothra Vs. We Are Scientists
Mothra Vs. We Are Scientists
And we ride...
'Cause it's Mothra Vs. We Are Scientists
Mothra Vs. We Are Scientists
Mothra Vs. We Are Scientists
Mothra Vs. We Are Scientists
As humorous as it sounds, The Scientist's song "Mothra Vs. We Are Scientists" seems to be a metaphorical representation of the struggles, conflicts, and insecurities we face in life. The line "We can't stop him even though we try" may suggest that the person is facing a seemingly invincible obstacle or challenge, despite their efforts to overcome it. The reference to Mothra, a giant insect monster from Japanese movies, and "Breathing fire, flying, what a guy" implies that the challenge is daunting and seemingly impossible to beat.
The line "He broke my best china and killed a man, then ate a sandwich, it was ham" may represent the unavoidable damage that comes with any conflict. The destruction of the best china represents the loss of something valuable or sentimental, while the killing of a man possibly implies a loss of life or a significant loss of something. The sandwich being ham may represent the mundanity that accompanies any significant conflict.
Overall, the song seems to suggest that the challenges we face may seem unbeatable, but we must continue fighting even when faced with seemingly impossible challenges.

Lyrics:
Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart
Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions
Oh, let's go back to the start
Running in circles, coming up tails
Heads on a science apart
Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start
I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
But tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy
Oh, it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start
Oh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ah ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Oh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Oh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh

Lyrics:
The english and indonesian
Datang menemuimu, beritahu kamu aku minta maaf
Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
Kamu tidak tahu betapa cantiknya dirimu
You don't know how lovely you are
Aku harus menemukanmu, memberitahumu aku membutuhkanmu
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Sudah kubilang aku memisahkanmu
Tell you I set you apart
Ceritakan rahasiamu dan ajukan pertanyaanmu
Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions
Oh, ayo kembali ke awal
Oh, let's go back to the start
Berlari berputar-putar, muncul ekor
Running in circles, coming up tails
Beralih ke ilmu pengetahuan secara terpisah
Heads on a science apart
Tak ada yang bilang itu mudah
Nobody said it was easy
Sayang sekali kami harus berpisah
It's such a shame for us to part
Tak ada yang bilang itu mudah
Nobody said it was easy
Tidak ada yang pernah mengatakan ini akan sesulit ini
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh bawa saya kembali ke awal
Oh, take me back to the start
Saya hanya menebak angka dan angka
I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Memisahkan teka-teki itu
Pulling the puzzles apart
Pertanyaan tentang sains, sains, dan kemajuan
Questions of science, science and progress
Jangan bicara sekeras hatiku
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Tapi katakan padaku kamu mencintaiku, kembalilah dan hantui aku
But tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh dan saya bergegas untuk memulai
Oh and I rush to the start
Berlari berputar-putar, mengejar ekor kita
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Kembali seperti semula
Coming back as we are
Tak ada yang bilang itu mudah
Nobody said it was easy
Oh, sayang sekali kita harus berpisah
Oh, it's such a shame for us to part
Tak ada yang bilang itu mudah
Nobody said it was easy
Tidak ada yang pernah mengatakan itu akan sangat sulit
No one ever said it would be so hard
Aku akan kembali ke awal
I'm going back to the start
