Robbie Williams: Blasphemy (concert with orchestra)

Blasphemy has become my favorite Robbie Williams song of this year. It is from his latest album Reality Killed The Video Star where we already saw him dressed as a rabbit and an astronaut. Sadly this song doesn’t have an official videoclip, so the above video is from a concert (BBC Electric Proms 2009), which is quite good thanks to the live orchestra that plays for Robbie.

Blasphemy is the last song composed by Robbie Williams and Guy Chambers.

I love its lyrics and violins

A bit of the Lyrics

The Egyptians built their pyramids. The Romans did what they did.
Now everything has come down to this. It’s just you and I our kid.
We could send a million to the moon. But why can’t I get on with you.
With cellophane around my mouth. Stops the anger seeping out.

Our deaf and dumb dinners. Gravy in the mud.
No singles just fillers. Sometimes I wish I could.
But …

I can’t behave. I know it’s not the heathen in me
It’s just that I’ve been bleeding lately
Internally, don’t turn to me
bite your tongue, the torrid weapon.
You could learn a useful lesson.

What’s so great about the great depression?
It is not a blast for me.
It is blasphemy.
