The enduring singer/songwriters died at 71 on September 12th this year,
and the first track of this posthumous release seemed deeply prophetic,
as did the engaging video, and it's like he really knew the end was coming
so soon.
And there's also a cover of the Depeche Mode track to go with it.
Robbie Williams: Escapology
10 Robbie Williams - Sexed Up
I'm glad this hasn't done very well, since it's dreadfully poor.
Kylie Minogue: Body Language
1 (NEW) Kylie Minogue - Slow *1st Week at No.1*
