Feel (Indigo Sky Remix Feat.Lucy)

In 'Feel (Indigo Sky Remix Feat. Lucy),' Robbie Williams delves into the complexities of human emotions and the existential quest for genuine connection. The song opens with Robbie expressing a desire to 'contact the living,' indicating a sense of disconnection from the world around him. He grapples with understanding his purpose, feeling as though the role he's been given in life is unclear. This existential confusion is further highlighted when he mentions talking to God, who 'just laughs about plans,' suggesting a sense of futility in trying to make sense of life's grand design.

The chorus reveals Robbie's deep yearning for 'real love' to fill the void in his life. He feels an overwhelming amount of life and love within him, yet it seems to be going to waste. This paradox of having so much to give but feeling unfulfilled is a poignant reflection on the human condition. Robbie's admission that he doesn't want to die but isn't keen on living either underscores a profound inner turmoil. He is caught in a cycle of fear and avoidance, preparing to leave before he can fully commit to love, and running from his own anxieties.

Lucy’s verse adds another layer to the narrative, questioning the authenticity of Robbie's feelings and achievements. She challenges him to confront the truth behind his emotions, suggesting that despite outward appearances, he cannot hide his inner pain. This dialogue between Robbie and Lucy emphasizes the struggle to reconcile one's internal world with external realities. The repeated refrain of 'not sure I understand' encapsulates the song's central theme: the elusive nature of true understanding and the relentless pursuit of real love and connection.
