Different: testo e video del nuovo singolo di Robbie Williams

Dopo Candy, Robbie Williams, ora in versione “soft” grazie al potere dell’amore e della paternità, torna con un nuovo brano, Different. Il pezzo, secondo estratto dall’album Take the crown, è già stato lanciato on line e in tutti i negozi di dischi con un video ufficiale che sembra sospeso tra due dimensioni temporali che accompagna un brano melodico e orecchiabile.

Il brano risuona come una promessa: il cantante comunica, con un canto e un’orchestra, l’impegno nel voler cambiare e nel voler prendersi le responsabilità che la sua compagna gli chiede. Promette di essere diverso, di essere speciale, di essere migliore. Una promessa che il cantante fa alla moglie Ayda Field e alla sua famiglia?

Ecco il testo del brano Different, di Robbie Williams:

When I look you in the eyes,
Something deep inside me dies,
’cause I know you won’t get better, better, better
You’d rather be right done with love,
The only thing I understood
Nothing’s ever good enough

I stumble through the words as they’re leaving me,
Tremble at the side of Your Majesty,
And I cut myself just to get them out

This time I’ll be different, I promise you,
This time I’ll be special, you know I will,
Just don’t leave with me in your eyes
This time I’ll be better, I want you to know,
This time I’ll be special, oh God, make it so,
Just don’t leave with me in your eyes

You took my youth, you took my health,
And if you’re not here I find myself
You’re supposed to make this better, better, better
No self-control and no reason why,
If I don’t change, then we both die,
This is it for you and I

Blisters at the end of my fingertips,
Praying to a god I don’t think exist
Will you listen now?
Can you forgive me somehow?

This time I’ll be different, I promise you,
This time I’ll be special, you know I will,
Just don’t leave with me in your eyes
This time I’ll be better, I want you to know,
This time I’ll be special, oh God, make it so,
Just don’t leave with me in your eyes, your eyes, your eyes

Closer now to the end,
If love was the answer,
Then what was the question?
Closer now, let’s pretend
We’ve never been out here before

This time I’ll be different, I promise you,
This time I’ll be special, you know I will,
Just don’t leave with me in your eyes
This time I’ll be better, I want you to know,
This time I’ll be special, oh God, make it so,
Just don’t leave with me in your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
