"Millennium" is a song by Robbie Williams, released as the first single from his second album, 'I've Been Expecting You'. The song heavily borrows the musical arrangement from John Barry's "You Only Live Twice", the title track for the James Bond film of the same name, reported to be one of Williams favorite Bond films.
"Millennium" became Williams first number-one single in the United Kingdom, selling over 400,000 copies and being certified gold by the BPI. The song also became an international success; it managed to break into the Top 40 around the world. It also became Williams first song to chart inside the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 when it was released.
The tongue-in-cheek music video for "Millennium" features Williams parodying James Bond, complete with references to Bond films like 'Thunderball' and 'From Russia with Love'. The video was filmed at Pinewood Studios, home to most Bond productions. At the 1999 BRIT Awards, "Millennium" won the award for Best British Video.
