RIP Maxi Jazz. Just learned of his passing. Loved him on this song, been playing this for years. One of my favorites from the 2000s and brings such great feelings and wonderful energy.
I never wanna _shame the blood_ in my veins, and bring pain to my sweet grand father's face.... And not waste everything my forefathers *earned in tears* for my culture. ( _This song still rocks after so many years_ :-) )
From a time went not only the kin that were still walking around were respected, but for those who came before. Not "shaming the blood in your veins" is akin to wanting to be on your best behavior & obey your parents in the Lord. Aretha didn't invent respect (not saying anyone claimed she did); it's simply that my O.G. ass can recall the importance of respect & demanded it of our children, not just for family but that includes neighbors...who is my neighbor?🤔💥💘
I’ve been a Robbie Williams fan for a long time and this is the first time I listen to this song, thanks for sharing it, Robbie looks really young and full of life. His voice sounds nice too 👍
I came across this song one time when I was in Brazil watching MTV at 2 or 3 in the morning honestly I was blown away with this song and had to rush to write down this songs name so I can get it.
One Giant Leap was or is a project by Jamie Catto of Faithless fame and Duncan Bridgeman who was in I-Level in the 80s and went on to be one the UK's top producers, have a look for 'Our Song' by I-Level
I knew RB did a kind of gritty grungy song. I kept forgetting to look it up. Pretty much a mash up isn't it? Pretty boy meets hard rap and comes out respect. Respect, respect.
This song introduced me to Maxi Jazz and Faithless and all their music. The whole One Giant Leap album concept was incredible. Great listening! The original of this song on the album has another set of Maxi Jazz rapping at 2:57, which makes the song even better. Find it and give it a listen.

RIP to a lyrical master. Gone but not forgotten
Amen ❤
It hit me hard when he left us ❤
who ?
One of his best, yet most underated tracks. RIP Maxi Jazz
Such a deep and thoughtful song, Robbie was awesome on it aswell
I remember watching this video on MTV back in 2001
was just thinkin that, i think this is a forgotten tune
It's from 2002
vesperview it must have been released as a single in other countries during that time but where I am it was released in 2001
yeah every bit of 2002. as it was I hadn't heard it for the first time until 2004 some time.
@@sanctuaryism Me toooooooo
Hello Dad
Remember me?
I'm the man you thought I'd never be
I'm the boy who you
Reduced to tears
Dad, I'd been lonely for 27 years
Yeah, that's right
My name Rob
I'm the one
Who landed the popstar's job
I'm the one who
You told look, don't touch
I'm the kid
Who wouldn't amount too much
I believe in the senses that I sound
I have always been too loud
Won't you help me drown it out?
And When I feel
What I'm feeling is so real
I'm a massive spinnin' wheel
Always digging in my heels
Now I got the faith to
Fall back again
Crawl from the warm water
Water to air
You're on your feet again
Your feet again

Same in 2022

Buon viaggio grande capitano 💓
Absolute class. Amazing blend of voices and raw emotion. Brilliant.

Спасибо за эту песню и этот клип! Я очень долго его искал!
This song still slaps today.
Do you believe I found this song last week? I thought at first it was massive attack! Really great 👍 one!
Buzzing so much listening to this again and again. Sounds so amazing still in 2020.
2021 and I'm still listen it
I’ve been a Robbie Williams fan for a long time and this is the first time I listen to this song, thanks for sharing it, Robbie looks really young and full of life. His voice sounds nice too 👍
What a track. Been looking for this forever.
Wow this was my jam 10 years ago... I feel old :) !
Still my jam..2018..love it
Now 16 years, and it's still great.
you wrote this comment nearly 10 years ago... now i really do feel old :(
Cheers to the legend that is Maxi.

Great song and great lyrics!
Rest in peace Maxi Jazz 🙏🙏🙏

Reminds me of the 2000’s, such a brilliant time for music 🎶
RIP Maxi Jazz 😪
this is a scream of existence
Ours
thank you so much for ART
has been a magnific companion through this human existence
This was epic the day it was made, and don't you not believe it.
That video is sooooo London in a rainy day..
I came across this song one time when I was in Brazil watching MTV at 2 or 3 in the morning honestly I was blown away with this song and had to rush to write down this songs name so I can get it.
This song is criminally underrated.
A mere 137,406 views? This was a stand out of class to the year it came out, for me personally.
This song deserves more😔
Miss this song and music video being aired on MTV and The Box. Always remembered it to be a Faithless song even if it wasn’t Faithless!
This song brings me good memories.. Wow, those days :)
REST EASY MAXI JAZZ
REST WELL WITH OUR ANCESTORS
✊🏿✌🏿💪🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
RIP legend
December 2, 2021, still listening...
Kien en el puto 2021 saludos🎯❤️

Спасибо тёзка. Шикарная вещь.
I've been playing this on the road trip from my work at mine site to my home just recently... I'm so saddened to hear this 😪
imádom ezt a zenét,Maxi Jazzért meg igazán nagy kár!nélküle már nem az igazi a Faithless zenekar... :(
I knew RB did a kind of gritty grungy song. I kept forgetting to look it up. Pretty much a mash up isn't it? Pretty boy meets hard rap and comes out respect. Respect, respect.
memories...
I must have played this in my room a million times.
Thanx Maxi for your insights, inspiration, and courage. See you in the next life bruva. RIP.❤️
Still listen in 2020!

This is so nostalgic
We never forget...
We come one...
I'm the sub-total of my ancestors
I carry their DNA
We are representatives of a long line of people
And we carried them around either with
This long line of people
That goes back to the beginning of time
And when we meet, they meet other lines of people
And we say bring together the lines of me
When I look back over the years
At the things that brought tears to my eyes
Papa said we have to be wise, to live long lives
Now I recognize what my father said before he dies
Vocalize things I've left unsaid
Left my spirit unfed for too long
I'm coming home to my family
Where I can be strong
Be who I planned to be
Within me my ancestry
Givin' me continuity
Would it be remiss to continue in this way
Would you rather I quit
Come with that other shit
Making people's hips sway
Lip service I pay, but I'm nervous
I pray for all the mothers who get no sleep
Like a lifeline, I light lines
'Cause my compassion is deep
For the people who fashioned me, my soul to keep
And this is who I happen to be
And if I don't see that I'm strong, then I won't be
This is what my daddy told me
I wished he would hold me
A little more
Than he did
But he taught me my culture
And how to live positive
I never want to shame
The blood in my veins and bring pain
to my sweet grandfather's face
In his resting place
I made haste to learn and not waste
everything my forefathers earned in tears
For my culture
Fall back again
Crawl from the warm water
(For my culture)
Water to air
You're on your feet again
Your feet again
Hello dad
Remember me?
I'm the man you thought I'd never be
I'm the boy who you
Reduced to tears
Dad, I'd been lonely for 27 years
Yeah, that's right
My name`s Rob
I'm the one
Who landed the popstar's job
I'm the one who you told look, don't touch
And the kid who wouldn't amount too much.
I believe in the senses that I sound
I have always been too loud
Won't you help me drown it out?
And When I feel
What I'm feeling is so real
I'm a massive spinnin' wheel
Always digging in my heels
Now I got the faith to
Fall back again
Crawl from the warm water
Water to air
You're on your feet again
Your feet again.
Ha, lace up your booty
Going back to the roots, continue my interlude
Feed freakin' for loot
And my spell's been to check what your future brings is now
And your forefathers further know how
But now, what happened to the world without the hatred
Use your head, if the needle is wise, be the thread
And weave ancestral wisdom, yours by best
Spreading the Lord's word over this broad Earth
This is what my daddy told me
I wished he would hold me
A little more
than he did
But he told me my culture
And how to live positive
I never want to shame
The blood in my veins and bring pain
To my sweet grandfathers face
in his resting place
I make haste to learn and not waste
everything my forefathers earned in tears
For my culture
Fall back again
Crawl from the warm water
Water to air
You're on your feet again
Your feet again
(For my culture)
Great sampling of the Pink Floyd song "Breathe" Such a fantastic song!
Sampling? I see a deconstruction and reconstruct. If one wants to be that scared rabbit welcome to. I operate better on this freq.
This took me back to high school...great memories, powerful song with deep lyrics
