Williams adds Michael Jackson tribute song to new album

News, Records

Robbie Williams has penned a last-minute Michael Jackson tribute track for his new album. The former Take That star was so moved by the King of Pop’s death that he decided to fiddle around with the tracklisting and add the new song. Record bosses were only told about the new addition at meetings last Thursday when they were set to finalise details of the autumn return.Robbie said: “Michael Jackson died. It’s all so very sad. I couldn’t get a lyric to fit on one of the new songs, so when he passed away I rewrote it with him in mind. “When I say I, I mean me and Don Black.” Nice of Robbie to namecheck the legendary lyricist he’s been working with. “I was having a tough time with lyrics for a little while,” Robbie went on. “Nothing would come out. Don kindly came in and gave me a helping hand and who better than the Pele of lyrics? I’m honoured.

“My album is a killer. Old Robbie, New Robbie and a Robbie that neither of us has met.” (source: Mirror.co.uk)

    You/he will not be disappointed I can assure you. It has to be heard believe me this is so very special.
    I am a bonafide songwriter who has had a No.7. hit in the early nineties.
    Please do not miss this chance (this is not from an a wannabe/crank or anything like that.
    It is really the most beautiful lyric and melody.
