Robbie Williams a participé et chanté lors de la cérémonie des Brit Awards 2013 qui avait lieu le mercredi 20 février 2013. Il était invité mais ne figurait pas parmis les nominés malgré son actualité avec la sortie de son album « Take The Crown » en novembre 2012. Il semblerait qu’il ai trouvé la soirée ennuyeuse …
Le samedi suivant , le 23 février il compose et écrit avec guy Chambers la chanson « The Brits 2013 », l’enregistre le dimanche 24 février et la publie sur son site ce lundi 25 février. Et là nous retrouvons l’humour et la verve de Robbie William et sur une mélodie imparable :

I’m very excited to be here
Yet again, it’s an honor to be nominated
Bla bla bla bla

Well that Brits night was so fucking boring
Past the days of yes, yes, Charlene
Coke in the box til 7 in the morning
Look the wrong way and we end up brawling
When I had a bit of beef with you know who
And I fucked a few female stars or two
Nearly everything I said I’d end getting screwed
Spitting at the… looking rude in the news
Oh yes, you’re still rocking with the best!
Second person on my year to have touched a breast
I’m nearly 40 now and I’m still impressed
Here’s the midlife crisis I guess.
Oh I recall, taking in the wonder of it all

Chorus :
I’m still looking for an answer through the looking glass
Still not concentrating at the back of the class
No thanks sir, this one’s for you!
It’s like a VD clinic, only pricks are in it
So fucking corporate and professional and timid
To be frank sir, I prefer this showbiz chancer!
I still want to get laid by you right!

Now I know I’ve got fat but make no mistake
Every million that I make they bake me a cake
So I’ve got plenty, 120
Wearing rows of tweed like the…
I still want to get you naked
I’ll see you in the summer, so glad you could make it!
I’ll be that mega white thing, fast as lightening
In… shape, but twice as frightening.
If they can’t be bothered, then I promise you this
If they won’t entertain you then I’ll do my fucking best!

Chorus:
I’m still looking for an answer through the looking glass
Still not concentrating at the back of the class
No thanks sir, this one’s for you!
It’s like a VD clinic, only pricks are in it
So fucking corporate and professional and timid
To be frank sir, I prefer this showbiz chancer!
I still want to get laid by you!

Would you let me lay you down right here?
Would you let me live?
