Born in Westmount, Quebec, to South African parents, he graduated from Loyola High School and McGill University. Roberts formed the band that was eventually known as William in 1993. The band's name was changed to Northstar in 1996.

Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
Intro {x4}
G x8 (play along with the song to find the beat)
G (hold until the end of 'quicksand')
Over land I traveled time and space and quicksand
G
And for sixty days I knew no other road
G
And through the maelstrom which turned in time with the kick drum
I was swallowed and twisted and spit out on a coast
G
And in this place there stands a gate that leads to the heart of the city
And I've spent seven years and a sea of fears in this broken mirror of a city
C G
Listen to the streets there's a heartbeat missing in the city
Sweet sunlight I can see it in my mind's eye
And I remember feeling alright
And I saw black clouds and Turin shrouds and it smelled of a faded empire
G
It's all concrete and steel we're asleep at the wheel and the mayor's just a gun for hire
C G
Listen to the streets there's a heartbeat missing in the city
C G
Listen to the sound there's a time bomb ticking in the city
G
I've heard the song the morning sings
Outside the gate is everything
C
Let in the light Let in the light
G
Streetwalker said to me she has no need for history
C
She has the key she has the key
G
Sweet sunlight I can see it in my mind's eye
C
Let in the light Let in the light
G (slow down tempo)
Waking up from a dream where I was the stone and you were the stream
Chemical City isn't all that you need but it's all that you're getting and they've hidden the key
C G
Listen to the streets there's a heartbeat missing in the city
C G
Listen to the sound there's a time bomb ticking in the city
I said this place is an unnatural disaster
And I'm a visitor here so I asked her
C G
Where are the trees where are the trees
And she said free yourself from history
C G
That is the key That is the key
Sweet sunlight I can see it in my mind's eye
C G (speed up - ROCK and ROLL)
I see the light I see the light
G(2 bars of 4:4 strumming) C x8 (same rythem as G intro)
G (steady palm muted strumming)
The gate is gone now you better run sing this x
G (louder)
Can you feel it There's a heartbeat missing in the city
When all the fat cats are hissing at your pity
Yeah the gate is gone so you better run
G C
You better run run run run
G C
You better run run run run
G C!
You better ru-------n
