Lyrics
Deep in the buzzem of the gentle night,
Is where I search for the light,
Pick up my pen and start to write,
I struggle a fight,
Dark forces in the clear moonlight without fear,
Insomnia.
I can't get no sleep.
I used to worry,
Thought I was going mad in a hurry,
Getting stressed, making excess
mess in darkness. No electricity,
Something's all over me, greasy.
Insomnia please release me,
And let me dream of making mad love to my girl on the heath,
Tearing off tights with my teeth.
But there's no release, no peace,
I toss and turn without cease.
Like a curse,
I open my eyes and rise like yeast.
At least,
A couple of weeks since I last slept.
Kept taking sleepers,
But now I keep myself pepped
Deeper still,
The night, I write by candle light,
I find in sight
Fundamental movement.
So when it's black
This insomniac
Take an original tack
Keep the beast in my nature under ceaseless attack.
I gets no sleep.
I can't get no sleep...
I can't get no sleep.
I never sleep.
I only smoke weed when I need to,
And I need to get some rest,
I confess, I burnt a hole in the mattress,
Yes, yes, it was me, I plead guilty,
And on the count of three I pull back the duvet,
Make my way to the refrigerator,
One dry potato inside, no lie
Not even bread, jam,
When the light above my head went bam!
I can't sleep, something's all over me,
Greasy, insomnia please release me,
And let me dream about making mad love on the heath,
Tearing off tights with my teeth.
But there's no relief,
I'm wide awake in my kitchen,
It's dark and I'm lonely,
Oh, if I could only get some sleep,
Creaky noises make my skin creep,
I need to get some sleep,
I can't get no sleep... - Hudba

I requested for this to be played at my funeral.. My family agreed. They played it and now I'm alive again!
that is a lie by using the lie test of the all of freeman
I Astral projected in the Past and i was walking in this european town and i saw Faithless in my sleep. NO LIE I AM SERIOUS i met him in my astral projection.
@@deanpepler5307 Astral projection is fake
This song got played at my grandads funeral what a true legend
And I just died laughing
90's Rave scene Austin, TX. My brother Tony loved this kind of music. He passed away in '99. I carry the torch and continue the love he had for this music.
R.I.P. my brother. I miss you every day.
RIP, if I could only get some sleep..... Frown, then grin, you'll get it.
Your brother had a great taste in EDM. RIP Tony.
The best taste in music, listen to daft punk - one more time another classic house tune! RIP x
Definitely, will bring you good memories of your brother this sick tune. I went to see Faithless 10 years ago and my adrenaline was right up to the sky. Best time of my life !!
Myndcrime I feel your pain. I lost my brother in 2004. He was well into this music. I’m reminded of him whenever I listen to the old stuff. He loved this track.
2:47 - 3:48 I need a 10 hours version of this.
Maybe I can get a few of my friends working on that idea..... 😁😁😁😁😁😁
YES, please !
3:02
Where can i found only this beat??
alie
Hard to believe this year I turned 55 years old... It just goes to show that age is just a number.
Because being a DJ for over 35 years and counting, I absolutely love this track!
I was cranking it up in the clubs, I was always watching people who were going crazy dancing to this.
Other people would ask me...
"How can you get excited about a song that barely has any vocal tracks and is just a bunch of synthesizer...?"
I tell them it's not about that. You have to feel the energy and what it's bringing to you.
I told them to imagine that for a little more than 8 minutes, you own the world, there's no rules, there's no laws and you're creating your own personal euphoria! (Ecstasy optional) 😄
Then I play the song at the end of the night as the last song...
Then they "get it!"
Absolutely timeless hit!
Rick R, I do not know who you are but you did educate me, thank you.
@@MrCandySkull @CandySkull Thank you for the kudos! 😀😀
I've been a professional nightclub DJ and have performance at many other types of venues since 1984.
I enjoy all facets of music but especially club music. That song is definitely one of my favorites.
It just goes to show that age is a number and a lot of people my age might be listening to something different, but I always like to keep myself fresh and explore different music styles.
Play it loud and proud my friend! Thanks for sharing a classic hit!
I’m way to young to have experienced this, but I find it the same when playing old games.
If I was chatting up a girl at a club this was the only song that would pull me away and go on the dance floor. Saw them live, they were great! As someone who has had bad insomnia this track does a great job of replicating the frustration pent up..
When people ask me why I prefer the instrumentally-focused music, not just music like this but also in the case of music from videogames, I often tell them that when there are little to no vocals, it allows you to focus more on the melody and rhythm, and that allows me to appreciate the compositional skill that went into making the song, and therefore the quality of the composition itself.
Anyone could make words and put it over an endlessly repeating 8 note melody, but it takes real skill to please the listener with just the music.
One of the greatest drops in club music history !! Madness on the dance floor when that shit hit.
This mix eclipsed all others… raw talent, raw lyrics… maxi jazz… rest in peace man.. you were a living legend 💔
Living?... 💀
today still a floorfiller ......i am a dj since about 30 years .....at the age of 53.....its still a masterpiece....love it
What
Still one of the best drops of all time
F....... epic!!!!
The best in my humble opinion!
Absolutely!
Was just discussing that. Is it reeeally a drop? People go nuts at 2:48 or 3:02 but the actual "drop" is at 3:17. It still is my absolute favorite song of all time and I get goosebumps every single time. But I debate you on this kind Sir! Or Ma'am! :D
The most legendary piece ever.
No similar.
This and Children put Trance music over other music genre.
@@kessler1476 yeah Trance number 1, nothing better than it.
Das war meine erste CD die ich mir gekauft habe und ich liebe dieses Lied bis heute. Bin 53 und ich flip heute noch aus wenn ich es höre
Dit is echt een van de beste nummers uit de jaren 90. Beat gaat nooit vervelen. I get no sleep
ONE OF THE GREATEST HOUSE JAMS OF ALL TIME.
As a 14 year old lad from the UK who grew up with the Anthems 90s CD in my mums car, all i want to say is this song inspired me to wanna start dj'ing. Out of all the songs i like this one has my heart. Thank you Faithless!
When Mozart heard this,he went out and bought a synthesiser
852 dislikes are the people looking for Ludwig van Beethoven and lost their minds.....
Yes, he does
You made me laugh hahaha
When Mozart heard the Glass Armonica, that was invented by Benjamin Franklin, he composed for it, so ...
I reckon he would have popped one n danced his socks off😂
Genius...never gets old. RIP Maxi
Tell me about the 90s club scene in two songs...... Faithless Insomnia and Robert Miles Children. That's all you need to say. Incredible song that I will jam until I'm gone. I can close my eyes and feel like I'm back in the club. The music transports you back through time. It's just a mind and body experience you can't explain. X was definitely part of my time back then but hearing the song today I get the same feelings without the need for drugs. I remember hearing this songs first note at the club and instantly knowing the next few moments were going to be the best of the night. Feeling every beat pulsing through every millimeter of your soul. Awesome 👍
I add Jaydee Plastic Dreams. Another hymn!
all of those are great. I cant agree more.
Could not have said it better myself. Wouldn't have missed those amazing nights for the world. ❤
I am agree with you . Two of the best songs ever
Miles’ Children were not to my liking- found it nice but boring. Insomnia is purely explosive energy. Sash! Encore une fois is somewhat similar sound, but again slightly boring.
I think by how core Insomnia is, there is nothing really on same shelf. Don’t get me wrong, I am not saying it’s the best track of all time, but in terms of what it’s packing as universal dance track it’s quite surely scoring high in every category.
At least to my taste :)
A freaking masterpiece! Rip Maxi Jazz
das lied werd ich nicht vergessen... nachts mit´m trecker stroh zusammen gefahren und das kam im radio.... volles rohr :) :)
RIP Maxi, you are in music heaven now and we can celebrate you in the only way: RAVE!!!
Iam 66 this year and still raving to this its a totally bostin tune.
Love this song so much! RIP Maxi. I've been lucky I saw you live . Best feeling ever ! God bless 😪😪
Absolute fuckin stomper of a tune. R.I.P Maxi Jazz, long live the Faithless. You're in God's church now.
The greatest and BIGGEST trance tune of all time.
2:47 chills every time! Gives me flashbacks of good vibes
And some water too
Do you think when they made this they knew they'd change dance music forever? forever faithless
No mate
@@samuelmagowan1185 I respectfully disagree. I like to think that Faithless definitely knew that they had a hit on their hands when they created 'Insomnia'. Fair enough, did they know the track would change dance music forever, maybe not. Maybe that's too bold to state, but I definitely believe they knew they had something unique and special, which in turn proved to be unique and special as 'Insomnia' to this day stands to be one of the greatest electronic dance tracks of all time.
@@samuelmagowan1185 haha lol why is everyone named sam there's you and 147Samster
a classic for ages to come 💯
Napster like it
Man! 24 years laters this is still freakin' good!
This song is like progressing through multiple stages of boss battle in a video game
At 52Yo I'm still enjoying listening to Faithless, it was pure fun back then way before smart phones invaded our lives..It still gives me goose buds
Rest easy Maxi. Thankyou for the Music 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Thanks for everything Maxi Jazz your style really did transcend dance music for a generation. 💔
The best pop/dance act ever.....thanks to ROLLO !!!! Faithless is a British dance act, formed around producer Rollo (real name Rowland Armstrong), keyboardist / DJ Sister Bliss (real name Ayalah Bentovim) and rapper / singer Maxi Jazz (real name Maxwell Fraser), and until 2006 bassist Aubrey Nunn. In addition, producer / singer Jamie Catto (until 1999; later active with his project 1 Giant Leap) and guitarist Dave Randall have been part of Faithless. Singer Dido, Rollo's sister, can be heard on several Faithless songs. The group quit in 2011, but performed again in 2015 to celebrate its 20th anniversary. The name Faithless 2.0 was used for these performances.
Faithless's music is usually a mix of trip hop, progressive trance, hip hop, pop, club and regularly various other styles. The line-up of Faithless consists of guitarists and drummers, among others, instead of, for example, just a DJ with a singer. This composition is rare in dance music.
Maxi Jazz 1957 - 2022, R.I.P now you may get some sleep, thanks for the tunes that gave us happy memories
I grow up with this song and avery time I hear to this part 2:48 and 6:30 I have something more than gousebumbs!
a true hymn that turns into reactions that last for minutes (hours... days...) even though the tracks is still over
🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🎉🎉🎉👍💪🕺🕺🕺🎉
i agree!
But seriously, whoever remembers this song is a legend.
On 22/07/2021, it remains a masterpiece!
My neighbors were playing this at 2am, so I banged on their door and asked them to turn it up.
lol
Wow
😂❤
Did not happen
@@picklepat4437 i joined them instead of asking to turn it up
The best feeling ever was walking into my fave club and this track was on, the party was lit. I knew it was gonna be a good night. Miss those days man!!!
+1 , these years were awesome...
Kingdom dayz
I know, right, what happened to them? Its like a different planet
Soooo trueeee...
Yazman r
This is the true version, bringing back unforgotten memories from several dancefloors. A big THANX for being part of a great time.
true
R.I.P Maxi Jazz another legend gone but never forgotten.
Not many songs take the status "ANTHEM" ..This will never get old :)
This track is untouchable, is on a class by itself!!!!
A-Fucking-Men
One of my favourite tunes. This was in my clubbing era. Still just as good all these years later.
Banginggggg tune.
in my humble option, an absolute legend of a tune. how i wish to relive those days again??
It's almost one am. It's 2021.... This hits freaking different
This is timeless
Listening at 1:20 am uk time 😂😂😂
@@LouieFell 1:23am UK too 😂
and now we are here in 2022
doctor: you have 8 min left of your life
me: but its 8:39
god: its ok
If God was a DJ😂
Or just fade away as the song does.
you just listen the last 39 secs to the way to heaven. i would take the 8 mins easy
Ayeeeeeee
Most idiotic, cliched, million times repeated stupid post
The best mix of this track... The Soundtrack to my high-school career!!!!!! When true music still existed..
The definitive mix of one of the best dance tracks ever.
Might be the greatest piece of trance\progressive ever created.
Yes
ALWAYS ALIVE WITH US.
RIP MAXI 💔 INSOMNIA FOREVER
By far,one of the greatest ensembles of musicians ever. They are all so different in their own right,but yet as one collaborative family,they cannot be touched in the time they spent destroying dance floors all over the world.
I would argue that in the dance,house,trance,whatever you call it music scene,Pound for pound,simply untouchable. They cannot be judged by a few songs,you have to listen to everything they have done. The true passion they have is unbelievable, undeniable and completely untouchable. And DON'T FORGET,TONIGHT,GOD IS A DJ!
Rest insomnia free Maxi! Gone but never forgotten!
I just fucking love trance, but somehow I missed the whole scene! I am 63 now and missing this whole episode is my only regret in life. Trance gives me energy, fulillment and escape, so wish I had been there !!!
mate I'm 61 an there's no need to miss it cos there's some greats nights/ events out there for us old skoolers
stop wishing and get out there… its still around even for you
Stephen Skinner it’s never too late bro, lots of trance at the cream weekender last weekend, it was epic! 😎
Still clubbin' around the world at 62
I love this music, always have! And I’m 57. Just because one reaches any given age doesn’t mean life and love of music is done.
Im not even really crazy about dance music, but the 90's and the very early 2000's dance music takes me back, it makes me very nostalgic and happy at the same time.
Okay, Mike M, as Tatjana Knezevic
use to say Is he dancing or directing traffic? Well, brilliant question, as usual but, if anything, we should all thank Tears for Fears for creating this song that inspired another artist to make his own version of it. Who else didn't grow up with Tears for Fears or Elvis Presley but loves it? Well, Roland was deliciously cute with his new wave haircut and that face. Que som é esse mundo? I feel horrible for not knowing that the original was from Tears for Fears For one thing,
How true that was a great time for me and the great country we call UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!!!
@@MrMexlance 🤣😂
It was an unrivalled era
Never to be repeated and understood by all who lived it
I'm 48 now and I still listen to the set's and shut my eyes and remember
Good Lord getting goosebumps writing and remembering
Late 90s early 00s was indeed the best dance music had to offer. Hit after hit came out.
Bliss.
OMG, remembering my good old days when I used to play 6:32 part at full blast without giving a crap about anyone else around, volume to the max!!!!!!!!!!!
Rest in peace Maxi, this piece will never die.
This is one of the Mozart of electronic iconics
One word ..... memories ! One of the best gifts that the human brain can have.
Nothing will ever be better . This is perfection. I still have my cd when it was released.
Living the dream 4.20am, headphones on and turned up full blast. Insomnia
This Song Got Me Through SO Many Dark Nights!!!!
Late 90's early 00's dance music is the pinnacle of the genre. Dancing with hundreds of people on sweaty dancefloors in huge auditoriums. Aaaaaahhhh. And this one.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Blew my my mind. Thank you.
I just can't stop remembering Motorsport 2 hearing this
Nothing beats this.
This is Legendary.
Those synth chords are crazy, brings back the rave days
R.I.P. Maxi Jazz 🙏
It' s been 23 years . Can you believe this ?
Musicians nowadays aren't bold enough to make songs like this anymore. All getting very mainstream
cos its easier to make music so everyone is just makin trendy music to earn
The best days ....just escape through the music....55yrs now and I’m passing my music to my nieces and nephews they are loving it.....😁
If I may ask, how do you go about it? I just can't wrap my head around the method I should use...
I've told my kids I want this at my funeral! Also 55 - 2 years ago in Ibiza, Sister Bliss dropped this in Eden. I went back 20 years 😍❤😁
This song makes me happy!
This one of the most Iconic tracks of its time, the blending of the music and lyrics is so perfect and know that this song will stand the test of time. When this version came out the stations wouldn`t play it, what a shame, always loved this mix and still the long version 12" of this masterpiece.
One of the only/best Song's ever.......!!!!!!!!
One of the greatest dance tracks ever if not the best
“You have 9 minutes left of your life”which song are you playing for the last time? Me:
YES!!!!
Sweat snoop dog
H A I’m snorting a whole gram of ching and listening to Dominator by Human Resource
Jack Duncan ching I’m lost or want to know lol
lorraine flynn round my way it’s slang for cocaine.
Best part has to be 0:00 - 8:40
none of the nones shut up?

@@LarsTragel-zh7ei shush
it's not a joke, it's facts
@@glitchzeve5212 same here
ive never seen people go more nuts on the dance floor for a song then this !!!!!!!!! this was the height of dance the 90s dance music craze maybe the greatest of all time and this is the best dance song everrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!11
A Masterpiece!!
Musicians nowadays aren't bold enough to make songs like this anymore. All getting very mainstream
greatest tune ever.
Because this is a simple track, now a days it’s more about variety. It’s hard to make just as catchy beats as this
3:04-5:22 played at Ipswich Town when the teams enter the field. Hope they win promotion. Newcastle United fan who is a season ticket holder at Ipswich Town in memory of my Nanny. Love you and miss you dearly.
Deep in the bosom of the gentle night
Is when I search for the light
Pick up my pen and start to write
I struggle, I fight dark forces in the clear moonlight
Without fear
Insomnia
I can't get no sleep
I used to worry
Thought I was going mad in a hurry
Getting stressed, making excess mess in darkness
No electricity, something's all over me, greasy
Insomnia, please release me
And let me dream of making mad love to my girl on the heath
Tearing off tights with my teeth
But there's no release, no peace
I toss and turn without cease
Like a curse, open my eyes and rise like yeast
At least a couple of weeks since I last slept, kept taking sleepers
But now I keep myself pepped
Deeper still, that night
I write by candlelight, I find insight
Fundamental movement, huh, so when it's black
This insomniac, take an original tack
Keep the beast in my nature under ceaseless attack
I gets no sleep
I can't get no sleep
I can't get no sleep
I can't get no sleep
I need to sleep, I can't get no sleep
I need to sleep, I can't get no sleep
Where the bit about the dry potato?
R.I.P. Maxi Jazz
This is the sound of me learning to party hard. I rarely party this hard any more - thank god - thank god for Faithless !
RIP Maxx i'm heartbrocken😢
R.I.P. Maxi Jazz ❤️❤️❤️😭
Iconic, beautiful, an eargasm to the ears. I can't get no sleeeep 👌👌👌💯💯💯
AUDIOGASMS GALORE!!!!!
😁😁😁😁😁😁
Maxi is gone but lives forever
hell yeah
Best track of the 90s by far. Oozes class from start to finish.
Proud to live through the 90s. Truly some of the best music to come alive. Ever!
"Proud" ?
@@perseus9428 yup!
@@Ash-yc6ql I suppose if there isn't much else to be proud of, we can consider being born around a certain decade some kind of personal achievement.
@@perseus9428 define your own success. And if music helps you through that process, so be it. Everyone, including yourself, has their own story.
1.1K thumbs down , how can you not like this masterpiece?
These 2 seconds silence (6:28) - before the Club/Party/Dancefloor EXPLODES and the crowd is yelling: "I CAN´T GET NO SLEEP!"
To the future generations, never let this song die.
don't worry, we play it in the right moment at the right time.
im looking to play it at a show i got in a few months as the ending
Whenever I want to bring People on the Dance Floor this is the Song - timeless. All age come. They remember when the were young, like me.
esta cancion produce cosas increibles en mis sentidos...nada como la musica de antes...
r.i.p maxi jazz 65 years old
The "bing...bum" sound reminds me of the really old ping pong computer game, ball going back and forth
Four inventing that riff sisster bliss is a absaloot legend
THE HYMN!
I found this gem after watching the 2001 movie "The Hole", which featured the main hook and really caught me. By the way, the whole compilation is great, RIP Maxwell "Maxi Jazz" Fraser.
EARGASM, MASTERPIECE
Uuuufff what a master piece. Will never die never ever... My beautiful years...
Memories ❤
greatest tune ever.
Do you think when they made this they knew they'd change dance music forever? forever faithless
The best trance!
This is probably better then all the remixes !
Yes, i like it 🥰
2wei make a good cover
I've seen these so many times live! My favourite British group! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 #showingmyage
Very very close, but I think this shades it.
Oh there's no probably about it. There are some good remixes out there but nothing beats this.
