Theakston, slightly baffled, asked him: “You knew we were having an interview this morning – why didn’t you take it any more seriously? Why are you just lying in bed naked?” Williams responded, “Because I think that people need to be more authentic when they do interviews and be more relaxed.”

The album celebrates 25 years of the Robbie’s solo career and features several of his number one singles all newly orchestrated by Jules Buckley, Guy Chambers and Steve Sidwell.“I put a lot of my favourite songs on the XXV album.
