Placebo are an alternative rock band consisting of Brian Molko (vocals, guitar), Stefan Olsdal (bass) and Steve Hewitt (drums). The band was founded when former Luxembourg schoolmates, who never actually spoke to eachother, Brian Molkoand Stefan Olsdalmet by accident at South Kensington tube station in 1994. Molko invited Olsdal to one of his gigs and Olsdal was impressed by Molko's vocals so they agreed on forming a band. While briefly known as Ashtray Heart, the band quickly settled on the name Placebo, by the drug that doesn't actually work. The band could not decide on a drummer at first with Steve Hewitt (drums) and Robert Schultzberg alternating on the spot.

Beauty lies inside the eye of another youthful dream
That doesnt sell its soul for self-esteem
Thats not plasticine
Beauty lies inside desire and every wayward heart redeemed
That doesnt sell its soul for self-esteem
Thats not plasticine
Dont forget to be the way you are (x4)
The only thing you can rely on is that you cant rely on anything
Dont go and sell your soul for self-esteem
Dont be plasticine
Dont forget to be the way you are (x4)
And dont forget to be the way you are (x4)
The way you are...
