Biography

British electronic band formed in London, England in 1994. Faithless were [a=Maxwell Fraser] AKA [a=Maxi Jazz] (Conscious Rap) (passed away on 23 December 2022), [a=Ayalah Bentovim] also known as [a=Sister Bliss] (Music), Roland Armstrong AKA [a=Rollo] (Producer, Music). Many of the songs are sung by [a=Pauline Taylor]. [a=Jamie Catto] was originally part of the group but left after the release of the second album "Sunday 8PM". [a=Zoë Johnston] joined for the album "Outrospective". Their first album, 1996's "Reverence", was an underground sensation but did not quite break the mainstream. 1998's "Sunday 8AM" changed all of that, the single "God Is a DJ" became a big club anthem while the album enjoyed bigger sales than anything they had previously released. Critics may have been harsh, but the group kept moving forward with all members also pursuing solo careers on the side. When playing live they were joined by guitarist [a=Dave Randall (2)] and bassist, [a=Aubrey Nunn]. Some of the original members (Sister Bliss, Maxi Jazz and percussionist Sudha Kheterpal) continue to perform under the name Faithless Sound System.

LYRICS

[LSK]
My baby was born in a bed
With white sheets, machines and heat
Traveled home in a car to a three room nest, eats and sleeps
Laminate flooring to crawl on, TV,
Talks, starts to walk, amongst love and security.
Goes to school, learns to read and write
Probably follows a team with his friends
And gets to ride the train,
Fall in love, probably fly on a plane
Get to work all week and spend what he earns
On the high street
He's got doctors, nurses, fireman, churches,
Kindergarten, wedding bells and jet black hearses
Passport, bankcard, maybe his own yard
Locks and alarms, trinkets and charms,
Maybe a baby in his arms

[Maxi Jazz]
My baby was born on his knees
One of poverty 's offspring
Came into the world coughing,
Already full of mother's disease
Went back to a flat, with no gas, no cash,
Rapped in a duvet full of cigarette ash,
Mama can't get no sleep,
Baby never quite get enough to eat.
Goes to school, learns to steal and fight,
Probably form a team with his friends,
Go steam those trains
Fall in love and never trust nobody again
Gets to work all week standing on the high street for Joe, Hustling blow, hustling blow
