“Just Want To Be Loved” was originally written for a man, The Robot™, who was once popular, powerful and adored in the Amsterdam night life. He asked Laurent to write him something so he could become a Pop star. Laurent wrote a song about this man’s life: popular because he is beautiful and sells drugs (he was a drug dealer), but still lacking love. Very disco, very catchy, but melancholic. While he was taking singing lessons and working on becoming a star, The Robot™ got busted and sent to jail for many years. So Laurent & Lewis decided to sing the songs themselves, hoping The Robot™ would get to listen to the radio and be able to hear the song that was meant for him.
The story doesn’t stop here: while singing it live, Lewis saw people getting freaky on the song. They started screaming and licking his shoes. Another time, girls in the front row of the concert room started crying. Who could have thought that people would be touched by a song written for a popular Amsterdam drug dealer with a lonely heart?
