"After I left Take That, I hung out with Oasis and I think it was Meg Matthews who put me in touch with Owen Morris who produced the first couple of Oasis albums. And he said he was interested in working with me, and of course I wanted to do anything to do with Oasis and was thrilled that he would even think of me. So we went down to his place in Wales, and his place in Wales was a cowshed. And in one half was this big desk and then in the other half was cows [laughs]. And we got off our faces, as we do. I mean, completely. Brilliantly. We also would come back from these writing sessions, because we'd write in this cowshed in a field and then I'd get dropped back at the pub which was a B&B, and we'd play these songs that we'd written. The car would be silent because we thought we'd written the best thing that's ever been written, ever. And our minds were blown that we'd managed to do this and woah. And 'this is going to be the biggest thing ever'. We didn't manage to do that, you know, but I'm very very fond of this next track..."

Robbie Williams first ever solo demo 'Go Now' recorded in 1995 with Owen Morris. As debuted on Radio Rudebox Vol.4: Britpop Special, 2013

#robbie williams #take that #that's a big chunk of text but it's the story of the song so I wanted to include it #I have a very strong feeling the song is about leaving TT #''I wanted to stay so high but you wouldn't let me''#''go now but stay a while''#I MEANNNN #btw the image on the post is rob and owen in the studio with oasis. I was like OH I know the perfect picture to put here #only surviving song that I know of that rob did with owen is cheap love song which was the b-side to south of the border in '97 #so it also ended up on one of the discs of the anniversary edition of life thru a lens 💕#nbsd: audio #mine #1995

putting rob's discography on shuffle is always a good time. But sometimes the tracks flow so poorly/brilliantly together. I had to recreate what I just went through. I went like this:

On the second night of Rob's London gigs on the Britpop Tour, he brought out grime artists Lethal Bizzle, Wiley, and Scorcher as special guests. One week before the show, Lethal Bizzle put out an open verse challenge to their recent single Can't Touch This and Rob responded. The reaction online from fans was overwhelmingly impressed.

So somewhere in the excitement of the collaboration, Rob invited them to perform the song with him at his show, including Rob's verse. Which is all context to say that the audio is from Rob's original video he recorded on his phone in bed. I've put in some work to improve the quality. Enjoy!

Lyrics: Been the best of the best, got better Did the best singing on the best song ever What? You could never be the best, not never Do ya best, I'm not impressed whatever Lived the life that your favourite rapper pretends to live He's on benefits, so lend him twenty quid (don't mention it!) You're offended it's 'cause you're sensitive Not one of thems like me I'm not one of them got my own back I don't need no other friends Rudebox ruined my career so fuck it then Now I'm back I'm about to fuck shit up again Twice as bad as you think I am You don't really know the half of it You can't imagine how hard it is trying to be the world's nicest narcissist I'll out-sniff out-drink and out-sing you Life comes at you fast when it hits you Don't just dwell on shit that you've been through The world just cares about me and my issues Shouts to Maureen for the handjob I do any genre and like 'and what?' Older than your dad with no dad bod And you know I can beat him in a dance ooooooff Reload this and reload it again

#robbie williams #lethal bizzle #uk grime #britpop tour #I knew about this when he dropped the verse. thought it was good and saw the reaction but I didn't think much else of it #then a few hours before the concert I saw that they were going to be the surprise artists like 5ive had been the night before #so I was like OH. it's HAPPENING #nbsd: audio #lyrics also transcribed by me. call me robbie williams' biggest fan because I listened to this 10 million times #mine #2025 #it was actually the coolest thing to see him perform with them. even in the rehearsal. he was having the BEST time #love that for him #and thinking of little rob doing his apache rap in 1993. look how far he's come lol

A slowed down alternate version of Rocket From Rob's Instagram (x)

#robbie williams #2025 #nbsd: audio #apparently before/after shows they're playing something that sounds similar to this in the stadiums and I'm being so normal about it
