February 22, 200718 yr Author 100. Something Beautiful Released: 2002 (Escapology) Kicking things off with the third single off Rob's 5th album, Escapology. It was originally written by Rob for Tom Jones but he ended up becoming fond of it himself so decided to use it. I reached #3 in the Uk but is imo one of his weekest ever singles and he must think so too cause he never performed it on tour nor did he include it on the GH. :mellow: Here is a great performance of it though. :kink: t9dFDL33_lw You can't manufacture a miracle the silence was pitiful, that day a love is getting too cynical passion's just physical, these days you analyze everyone you meet but get no sign love in kind every night you admit defeat and cry yourself blind 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 wont be lost, hurt tired and lonely something beautiful will come your way The DJ said on the radio life should be stereo, each day In the past you cast the unsuitable stead 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 (chorus again) some kind of beautiful (few times) 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 99. Our Love Released: 2006 (Sin Sin Sin) A good B-side from Sin Sin Sin and the last good B-side Rob has done imo. I hate the begining though, very annoying. <_< Vid: bE_7Cd232sk Just like we told you, Our love Is better than their love We can make you famous Why don't you come and join us You don't need anyone to know, that you exist You don't want anyone to know, you can't resist All this time All those prayers All this hanging around All these hopes All these fears All this, all this Our love Is better than their love We can give you more love There's not enough of This thing called love, love Do you believe their love will make everything alright Do you believe stars disappear, when it gets light All these dreams All these lies All that sleeping around More receptions, empty rooms All this, all this Our love Is better than their love We can make you famous Why don't you come and join us Why don't you come and join us Why don't you come and join us Why don't you come and join us Aren't we cruel? Isn't it all so cruel The things we do with love And the things we do without love (All this time, all those prayers, all this hanging around, all these hopes, all these fears all this, all this) You don't need anyone to know, that you exist You don't want anyone to know, you can't resist ( If you want love, you got it, you got love, you want it) Just like we told ya, Our love Is better than their love We can make you famous Why don't you come and join us Why don't you come and join us Why don't you come and join us Why don't you come and join us Why don't you come and join us 98. You’re History Released: 2002 (Feel Single) This is One of the B-sides to “Feelâ€. It is a good rock number but only just made it into the countdown. -_- When you were collecting For you sex appeal He was in killing fields Over you You went And took away his self respect Put him out like a cigarette You blow Chorus: Dont bother coming home You said all youve got to say He can get with the girls again Cos hes a charming man Its true He can drink with the boys tonight And have a fight, alright And spew Youre history Youre history Got your t*ts done And moved out the very next day All you left was the bill to pay What a front Could she not see what youre a righteous man? A gun in hand Cupid stunned He used to want your love Now he wants you to go away He can drink till hes comatosed Yeah he rocks the most Can't you see Hes got diamonds in his eyes tonight Could give you quite a fright No sympathy Youre history Youre history Dont bother coming home You said all youve got to say He can get with the girls again Cos hes a charming man Its true He can drink with the boys all night And have a fight, alright And spew He will drink till hes comatosed Yeah, He rocks the most Cant you see? Hes got diamonds in his eyes tonight Could give you quite a fright Yes siree Youre history
February 22, 200718 yr Author 97.Grace Released: 1998 (I've Been Expecting You album) A really nice song from the amazing “I’ve Been Expecting You” album. It is apparently about Nicole Appelton. Here is a nice video of it. clrKo3Fgf1s Sometimes I feel like I am Sailing on a sunken dream I try to read the signs But I don't know what they mean I know when I'm with you I'm a rich man baby Grace, I'm not yet born Come embrace A soul that's torn I have got so much to give you My heart is starved of love In these radio days I try to listen hard To what my conscience says I know I've sold my soul I'm going to earn it back now Grace, I'm not yet born Come embrace A soul that's torn I have got so much to give you Now that you believe in me We can fly away Somewhere safe I know that you will always be Giving more than you take I know when I'm with you I'm a rich man baby Grace, I'm not yet born Come embrace A soul that's torn Grace, it can mend if you make my heart your friend Grace Grace Grace Grace
February 22, 200718 yr Author 96. Kill Me Or Cure Me Released: 2000 (Kids Single) A good rock song with clever lyrics. I'd love to see this live, it would get everyone up and bouncing. :yahoo: . Oh, I'm your new best mate Help me self-medicate Things can all look great Stopped in this town to quench my thirst The bad man got here first Then the bubble burst Who's telling stories I can't handle $h!t And it's beginning to bore me Just get on with it Kill me or cure me My love life's gone stiff Don't know who I've been with And I'm gonna take it cos they wanna give Can you blame me? Don't need to spend my bread People do that for me instead Must be thinking that I'll wake up dead In the morning I can't handle $h!t And it's beginning to bore me Just get on with it Kill me or cure me You've got a powerful lawyer Well I've got money for ya I know why I appall ya But I f***ed your daughter I got friends stay up till the end Try to screw me or my girlfriend Until I'm not the latest trend Fetch me butler I can't handle $h!t And it's beginning to bore me Just get on with it Kill me or cure me I can't handle $h!t Kill me or cure me I can't handle $h!t Kill me or cure me
February 22, 200718 yr Author 95. King Of Bloke & Bird Released: 2005 (Intensive Care Album) I have always found this song rather boring but recently have really been enjoying it. Lyrically it is fantastic and his vocals are great on it. What you do speaks so loud I cannot hear what you say Except for the occasional word So Fate's a sentimental side it bothers me No longer king of bloke and bird All of my life Searching hard Down in the wires Of love Summer me now summer my life away Summon me on to another day A hand through the clouds keeps knocking me down It’s no less than I deserve They build museums I don't visit them I’ve made enough trouble of my own Into the night Searching hard Look for the lights Of love Summer me now summer my life away Summon me on to another day Summer the evening, winter ways Are falling down again I sing from the chaos in my heart,my heart Then comes the evening that makes life worth living Shoving the shoes out in the light She walks in, I can hear her
February 22, 200718 yr Author 94. Happy Easter (War Is Coming) Released: Come Undone (Single) Well this was released around the time when the war in Iraq begun I think and caused some controversy as I recall. Rob insisted it was not an anti-war song though in an interview. Rob wrote all of this song alone and I really like it. Lyrics & music are good and it has a big sing-along chorus. Hold on to this Something crawling up my wrist, I think its dyin bless the lord I cant think straight anymore you wont see me cryin therell be tears before good times for sure chorus singing I wont go to war lay down your guns what are we fighting for wanna swim in the ocean, wanna play in the sea.. want to love my brother and let my brother to loving me am gonna buy a farm and ride the sun it wont chance the earth, just the people on it I was born with, a silver shuffle in my mouth Golden balls and a platinum smile You wont hear the last of The good the bad The best time for sure Chorus singing I wont go to war lay down your guns what are we fightin for wanna swim with the dolphins, wanna play in the sea want to love my brother and let my brother to loving me am gonna buy a farm and ride the sun it wont chance the earth, just the people on it I want to hear the sound of millions of people sitting down Live to live Free your love

February 22, 200718 yr Author King of bloke and bird is high enough imo. :lol: It was lucky to get that high as it was only recently I have really been enjoying it. Before I just found it extremly bland. :lol:
February 22, 200718 yr Author 93. Better Days Released: 1997 (Old Before I Die Single) The first ever Robbie B-side. :o A great catchy track with great music. Really like this song. I'm gonna write you a letter I think the sooner the better Cause the time is right to find a better day I'm an angry young man Man I wish I was young My guitar is out of tune even that's highly strung And the words we didn't say last night Shook the world to the core We had nothing to say last night We'd said it all before And I say Lonely times and lonely tears Will fade away when you disappear The time is right for me to stray I'm gonna find a better day Kickin off cause it suits me I'm gonna leave the country And the time is right to find a better day Makin sense of my past now I'll only love when I want to Cause the time is right to find a better day Maybe I didn't love you Maybe you loved her less Would you have preferred it If I'd have worn the dress Cos I say Lonely times and lonely tears Will fade away when you disappear The time is right for me to stray I'm gonna find a better day Lonely times and lonely tears Will fade away when you disappear The time is right for me to stray I'm gonna find a better day No where to run to baby No where to hide I got no where to run to baby And nowhere to hide
