'Bodies' sudah preview di Radio One Inggris sejak 4 September 2009, meskipun secara fisik akan dilempar ke pasaran di 12 Oktober nanti. Robbie Williams bareng Brandon Christy dan Craig Russo menjadi penulis lagu yang berdurasi 4 menit 4 detik ini, sekaligus sebagai penanda kembalinya Robbie ke medan perang show biz. Satu2nya yang salah mengenai lagu ini hanyalah persisnya melodinya dengan lagu2 Robbie sebelumnya, sehingga kesan tipikal dan terlalu familiar yang muncul. Tapi bukan berarti membuat laguini berlabel buruk. 'Bodies' secara terpisah adalah sebuah lagu yang bisa dikatakan sebagai masterpiece dari performer-nya dan juga produser-nya, Trevor Horn.
Aku memberi review positif untuk lagu ini, karena selain jaminan bahwa Robbie Williams sudah mendapat tempat tersendiri untuk pasaran Inggris, Robbie Williams is a sweet heart in a bad boy package.

Lyrics:
God gave me the sunshine,
Then showed me my lifeline
I was told it was all mine,
Then I got laid on a ley line
What a day, what a day,
And your Jesus really died for me
Then Jesus really tried for me
UK and entropy,
I feel like its ****in’ me
Wanna feed off the energy,
Love living like a deity
What a day, one day,
And your Jesus really died for me
I guess Jesus really tried for me
Bodies in the Bodhi tree,
Bodies making chemistry
Bodies on my family,
Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery,
And that’s the way it’s gonna be
All we’ve ever wanted
Is to look good naked
Hope that someone can take it
God save me rejection
From my reflection,
I want perfection
Praying for the rapture,
‘Cause it’s stranger getting stranger
And everything’s contagious
It’s the modern middle ages
All day every day
And if Jesus really died for me
Then Jesus really tried for me
Bodies in the Bodhi tree,
Bodies making chemistry
Bodies on my family,
Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery,
And that’s the way it’s gonna be
All we’ve ever wanted
Is to look good naked
Hope that someone can take it
God save me rejection
From my reflection,
I want perfection
Bodies in the Bodhi tree,
Bodies making chemistry
Bodies on my family,
Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery,
Bodies in the bodhi tree,
Bodies making chemistry
Bodies on my family,
Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery,
And that’s the way it’s gonna be
All we’ve ever wanted
Is to look good naked
Hope that someone can take it
So God save me rejection
From my reflection,
I want perfection
Jesus didn’t die for you, what do you want?
(I want perfection)
Jesus didn’t die for you, what are you on?
Oh Lord
(Jesus really died for you) Ohh
(Jesus really died for you)
(Jesus really died for you) Ohh
Trivia : Prepare yourself to hear the new sound of Robbie Williams in his 8th solo studio album, Reality Killed the Video Star, coming up in November 9. Ini akan menjadi sesuatu yang spesial, berhubung Robbie sudah 3 tahun tidak mengeluarkan album.
