Robbie appears at the end of the video in the link below, it's such a nice gesture from Robbie & lovely to hear Dylan talk about how much the song I Love My Life means to him :wub:

The 18-year-old Children In Need ambassador stunned viewers with an emotional performance on The One Show and fought back tears when the singer sent in a video message thanking him for choosing his song.

This is lovely :wub:

Also love Gorillaz and actually they both with Rob are my longest faves.

I have started to listen them both almost at the same time (2001).

Damon is a very talented man, of course.

Well, I'm partly re-reading Feel book now and found some interesting facts.

This fact is about Brian Wilson's (yes, from The Beach Boys) call to Rob in 2004.

 

This is a song what Rob could sing!

Check it and tomorrow I will put that story.

 

 

 

Do you Gorillaz are supposed to be in Mosow next summer Alex, ( https://park.live/ ) JUNE/JULY. They are also touring in other parts of Europe but no dates for UK/Ireland , they are also going to Australia but it's too early iin the year for me :mellow:

 

I love Gorillaz song Jimmy Jimmy , funny lyrics :)

 

 

Jimmy Jimmy

Now you're out of control and the lie you're livin' is a dead-end road

Jimmy Jimmy

No need to be sad, when they play your song, we'll get along

Jimmy Jimmy

Left electric and headed to SoHo

Now I'm in the box, I had way too much yak (woo)

Hate the front so I sat in the back

With a girl from Iran with the peachiest back (Jimmy Jimmy)

Love me a spliff, but I gotta keep it a stack

The females around me are crack

Got me wired, I ain't comin' back to reality

I bleed it out in the track (Jimmy Jimmy)

Robbie Williams' advice for Liverpool students chasing music dreams

 

The superstar chatted with students at his LMA media academy, and passed on some invaluable advice

 

Robbie Williams urged students to "create, create, create" as he warned them "nobody is going to give it to you, so go and get it."

 

The superstar was talking as he visited Liverpool Music Academy (LMA) to get involved with some of the classes and pass on invaluable advice to those studying at the media academy - of which he is a co-owner.

 

In a Q&A held at the Royal Court Theatre, Williams told students: "Create, create, create. Us creatives are all the same, we're not muggles, we're magicians."

 

Williams later added: “All the stars you look up to have been on the same journey at some point.

 

"I used to think if not me then who, so now it’s, if not you then who?”

 

“There’s never been a better time to just get on and do it yourself – software, technology and platforms are there that you can do it all and get your stuff out there.

 

"Nobody is going to give it to you so go and get it.

 

“For me there was no left, no right, just this dead focus to do this.

 

"You won’t always feel confident but can always be brave so don’t minimise your own talent, don’t minimise what you can be.

 

"Let your obsessions be your guide and use your delusions to drive you.”

 

Williams then led students in a rendition of 'Angels' before visiting the media academy's Metquarter to see the students in action.

 

Williams said: “I fell in love with the LMA Choir back in the X Factor days and just had to be part of this.

 

"The talent here is incredible and I can see myself in them all.

 

"It’s amazing to see like-minded creative people in a safe space to be themselves and be what they want to be.

 

“We want to support them, love them and develop them to achieve whatever it is they dream of.”

 

Richard Wallace, founder and co-owner said: “We speak with Robbie on a weekly basis about the students, their performances and how we can support their development and opportunities moving forward up to and beyond graduation.

Paul Weller is a very talented man B-)

 

 

I downloaded it last night , it's quite a nice album, has great depth, will enjoy listening to it

Tom Hardy is Britain's sexiest man… but this ageing lothario is a surprise entry https://www.thesun.co.uk/fabulous/17041639/...ign=sharebarweb

 

Robbie will be pissed that he's 6th behind 81 year old Sir Tom Jones :lol:

 

 

What a great pic though & tbh I cannot believe he actually got sixth given some of the names that came after him :lol:

Witney baker commissioned to create gingerbread house for Robbie Williams

 

 

A baker who faced a struggle when weddings were not allowed during Covid has been commissioned to create a gingerbread house for Robbie Williams.

 

Wedding cake designer Samantha Tempest, who is based in Minster Lovell, was last year commissioned to create four glorious gingerbread houses for the singer and his wife Ayda.

 

She started her bakery business, The Pretty Cake Company, from her iamspamspamamitable in 2008 having always loved baking as a child.

 

She sold hand-made hampers full of signature biscuits, cakes and macaroons for Christmas, Valentine's Day and Mother's Day in order to keep her business afloat during lockdowns.

 

 

She said: "I thought I would diversify a bit so doing the seasonal ranges has been good for keeping my brand out there, keeping the wheels of the business going and also for my own sanity.

 

The four intricate gingerbread houses she created were displayed on the Williams family's Alpine tablescape on Christmas Eve.

 

Samantha said: “The woodland animals themed house was my favourite of the four I made. I loved how the bunnies and the deer were looking into the house and I added a log store at the side of the house for a nice little touch. I popped some LED lights into the house to light it up too!

 

"The second house had lots of lovely little touches too. I added a porch to this house which had a silver door wreath hanging above it. I added shutters on the windows and stencilling was a great and quick way of adding pattern to the roof and walls. The three-dimensional trees were a bit of a challenge and I had to do many prototypes before I got the fittings just right."

 

Unbelievably the houses were her first attempts at doing gingerbread houses and required lots of research into recipes, baking, and the best ‘cement’ to keep it all together.

 

The third house was a gingerbread chapel with an ‘Angel’ - Robbie's number one hit - window feature, some large snowflake cookies and rows of 3-D trees.

 

Samantha said: "When I came to photograph it at 6pm the night before, I found that the balcony had dropped off. I then went into panic mode worrying that by the time I’d arrived at my destination the following morning, that the whole thing would have collapsed.
