1) A british indie… Read Full Bio ↴There are more than one band called The Williams:
1) A british indie rock band.
2) A norwegian indie rock band.
3) A Korean post-punk band.
1) Cheap guitars, stand-up drumming and a band who genuinely gave a fuck about something – the Williams formed in a grim northern town in 1987. Scunthorpe in 1987 was like any other industrial town, local bands played local public houses and the Williams didn’t want to be part of that. Brought up on independent labels, sha la la flexis, 60s classics and throwaway pop The Williams wanted to be part of something bigger. This unlikely trio consisting of brothers Alan (guitar and singing) and Paul Fairnie (two drums and a cymbal and most of the words) and bassist Ian Cummings [he sings too] were pretty much hated by the muso scene of Scunthorpe. It was always about attitude – they couldn’t play that well but managed to get three songs together for their first gig at the Baths Hall in august 1987, from then on they set about playing with most of the burgeoning indie scene. Alan’s fanzine Get That Anorak Off helped launch the flexi "I Know I’m Nothing Special to You", even getting airplay on the John Peel programme (and they thought he’d choose Esmerelda’s Kite) and they built on their reputation as enthusiastic upstarts to go on and play with Pale Saints, The Telescopes, The Sainsburys, St. Christopher, Sea Urchins and eventually a six date tour with Primal Scream by then adding additional guitarist Rob Dillam (who later joined Adorable) Having seen their sound mutate from chiming guitars and simple lyrics to a more sustained assault of noise (blame My Bloody Valentine and Dinosaur) the Williams decided a change of direction was in order in late 1990. They changed their name to Sunburst, then Super Electric,[who have their own music uploaded somewhere on this site] they found the harmonies of Brian Wilson, the groove of Sly Stone and the attitude of the Who – invented Acid Modernism and promptly self destructed. Some times Northern towns get their revenge. "I Know I'm Nothing Special To You" is available on The Sound of Leamington Spa Volume 4 on Firestation Records.
2) The Williams - Of Norwegian origin, or more precisely; Norhern Norway. Though now situated in Oslo, The Williams inspiration and temperament has still much of the arctic character. As the music is in the contemporary lo-fi indie genre, things are done simple, with a clean touch. Everything is also done with real instruments and sounds. And as the lyrics goes darkways with regular people's everyday situations, you might think of...? Influences is basically all good music. The songs that made us what we are; the songs that saved our lives. The Williams is fronted by lead singer Nagel. The band was formerly known as Maverick X. http://www.myspace.com/thewilliamsno
3) After a series of well-received live shows, the group finally released their debut album, Love Child. It is inescapably indebted to the post-punk movement. while the obvious comparison for The Williams is Joy Division, the band's love of all things 80s shines through. Album opener 102 is pure Jesus and Mary chain fuzziness, 마취 is a loving tribute to The Smiths, and album closer 아진 is Cure-esque gothic.
Falling Down
The Williams Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby
Told me that your love for me was true
Said you'd love me your whole life through
But now you're asking me to set you free
You've found some body you love more than me
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby
I miss your loving that was so fine
I need it, I need it all of the time
For I still love you in the same old way
Yet I'm losing you a little every day
My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby
My whole world is falling down, falling down, falling down
My whole world is falling down, I'm losing my baby
The Williams's song "Falling Down" is a heart-wrenching ballad that conveys the pain and heartache of losing a loved one. The lyrics reveal the singer's desperation and despair as they realize that their entire world is crumbling around them. The first verse establishes the theme of the song, with the singer lamenting that their whole world is falling down. They repeat this phrase several times, emphasizing the depth of their despair. The second verse delves deeper into the cause of the singer's pain. The person they love has told them that they no longer want to be with them because they've found someone else. This revelation is devastating for the singer, who had believed that their love was true and would last forever. The repetition of the phrase "I'm losing my baby" highlights the sense of loss and abandonment that the singer is experiencing.
The chorus is a haunting repetition of the first verse, emphasizing the idea that the singer's world is crashing down around them. The third and final verse brings the song to a close by emphasizing the depth of the singer's love for their ex-partner. Even though they are losing them, the singer still loves them just as deeply as ever. However, this love is not enough to save the relationship, and the singer is forced to accept the painful reality of their situation.
Overall, "Falling Down" is a powerful and emotional song that captures the pain and heartbreak of lost love. The repetition of the central phrase emphasizes the feeling of finality and inevitability that often accompanies the end of a relationship. The song's simple, straightforward lyrics and gentle melody give it a timeless quality that resonates with listeners of all ages.

@kystars

@InDatParish
kystars I don’t think it’s fake, I think her excuse for why she passed out is a complete lie
@kystars
@@InDatParish well your opinion, I say fake as she is wearing the costume still when they come back on air. Yes I know she was probably was on drugs, but II still think it was fake because of wearing the costume still.
