Robbie Williams, the Brit’Pop star is back
-
Still dandy, the troublemaker of the English pop comes back with brilliant album "SWINGS BOTH WAYS" before performing on the greatest world stages. This new opus swing reveals also new duos like « Dream A Little Dream” with Lily Allen. Secrets.
Fleur LempinskyBetween SWING SUPREME and NO ONE LIKES A FAT POP STAR , the tone is given for the new album of Robbie Williams, created and co-written with Guy Chambers. « First of all I wanted to do a Swing album, because I wanted to do a Swing album since a long time. » Robbie Williams said. I always knew I’d do another and I think now is the perfect time to do it. I’m enjoying show-biz and I’m enjoying my life and my understanding of where I am now is that there needs to be an event every time I bring out a record. The album this time is a definite ode and a loving glance towards a period on the planet that I was never invited to ‘coz I wasn’t there...I wanted to be, which I feel still very strongly linked to ». « Going in I planned it to be very similar to the last one, and then I realized – that’s actually not what I wanted. It’s different – it’s not all covers, I had some songs that I wanted the world to hear and check out and maybe become part of the fabric of their lives, if I’m lucky enough, that I’ve had a hand in writing. So it’s very similar to the last one, and very different – and hopefully I’m off to romance the world!”.
Lily Allen continues: “‘Dream A Little Dream’ is one of my favourite songs of all time so I didn’t hesitate when Robbie asked me if I’d like to duet with him on it. I was a bit nervous when we recorded it, especially when I asked him what he wanted me to do and he said something like ‘just be you’. But I’m really happy with it and think we do justice to a classic song.”. The last swing album of Robbie “Swing When You're Winning” remains 6 weeks straight through in the top 10 in England before being 7 times platinum disc. An amazing sound to listen again and again before going and seing Robbie Williams on tour since 3 December!
