Fable (Robert Miles Song)
"Fable" is the title of a song by the Swiss-Italian musician Robert Miles. It was released in May 1996 as the second single from his album Dreamland.
It was a hit in several countries, reaching top ten in Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland and UK. Its highest position in Europe was #2 in Finland, but the single was unable to dislodge Metallica's "Until It Sleeps", which topped the chart then.
The song was charted in 1997, as third single (after "Children" and "One and One"), on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play on which it peaked at number one for one week.
This song was featured in the theatrical trailer for the film Ever After, starring Drew Barrymore.
Fiorella Quinn is the vocalist of this instrumental song.

Famous quotes containing the words fable and/or miles:
“But there’s another knowledge that my heart destroys
As the fox in the old fable destroyed the Spartan boy’s
Because it proves that things both can and cannot be;
That the swordsmen and the ladies can still keep company;
Can pay the poet for a verse and hear the fiddle sound,
That I am still their servant though all are underground.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“... ideals, standards, aspirations,—those are chameleon words, and take color from their speakers,—often false tints. A scholarly man of my acquaintance once told me that he traveled a thousand miles into the desert to get away from the word uplift, and it was the first word he heard after he reached his destination.”
—Carolyn Wells (1862–1942)
