Summary

This is part 2 of the interview with Robbie. He’s one of the most famous people on the planet, in an illustrious career stretching across three decades. He was a hero for me growing up, I just loved him, I loved – and still love – his music, but also his ability to entertain, his candidness and his sensitivity, which have always been so present in his music.
