Mon, March 27, 2023 in Lisbon, Portugal @ Altice Arena
The tour of Robbie Williams is: "XXV Tour".
It was my 4th Robbie Williams show. My 1st one was in October 19, 2003 here in Pavilhão Atlântico (now altice Arena), Lisbon.
I arrived at Altice Arena at 06:30 am. It was a windy, sunny day. Doors opened at 19:30 and Robbie Williams was scheduled to start at 21:30.
Before "Robbie Williams" in Altice Arena, played Lufthaus, they started at 20:30 and played 37 minutes.
Members:
Robbie Williams
Tim Metcalfe
Flynn Francis
I never heard of them before. A brand new electronic group. At least I know 1 of the members, Robbie Williams.
Info of the band from the Official site:
Lufthaus Official site
"Lufthaus is a brand- new electronic group of Robbie Williams, Tim Metcalfe and Flynn Francis.
The group’s sound, fusing the pulse of electronica with the art and structure of classic song-writing, was greatly inspired by the city of Berlin. What the trio have created in response to the atmospheres there feels timeless, impressionistic and yet relentlessly modern - much like Berlin itself.
Lufthaus’s merging of music, art, new digital technologies and live performance forges a unique experience which is somehow intangible, classic and yet as much of the future as the pulse driving all great cities - not least the city that still defines creative collaboration and experimentation."
Finally was time for Robbie Williams. He started at 21:46 and played 113 minutes. Played a set of 20 songs.
Love the concert. Robbie Williams was freaking awesome telling a lot of stories on this tour show. Even talking with some of the fans.
The band members are:
Current members:
Robbie Williams – lead vocals, guitar, tambourine (1997–present)
Gary Nuttall – lead guitar, backing vocals (1997–present)
Guy Chambers – keyboard, guitar, backing vocals (1997–2002; 2012–present)

Robbie Williams - Love My Life
ReWatched this video a few days ago while searching for this music video by Robbie Williams.
Have to say that I love this video. Always loved this music. Music is so powerful, so beautiful, so wonderful, so magical.
Hope you will love this awesome lyric.
Robbie Williams | Love My Life (Official Video)
Tether your soul to me
I will never let go completely
One day your hands will be
Strong enough to hold me
I might not be there for all your battles
But you'll win them eventually
I pray that I'm giving you all that matters
So one day you'll say to me
I love my life
I am powerful
I am beautiful
I am free
I love my life
I am wonderful
I am magical
I am me
I love my life
I am not my mistakes
And God knows, I've made a few
I started to question the angels
And the answer they gave was you
I cannot promise there won't be sadness
I wish I could take it from you
But you'll find the courage to face the madness
And sing it because it's true
I love my life
I am powerful
I am beautiful
I am free
I love my life
I am wonderful
I am magical
I am me
I love my life
Find the others
With hearts
Like yours
Run far, run free
I'm with you
I love my life
I am powerful
I am beautiful
I am free
I love my life
I am wonderful
I am magical
I am me
I love my life
I am powerful
I am beautiful
I am free
I love my life
I am wonderful
I am magical
I am me
I love my life
And finally
I'm where I want to be

This is the awesome new video of the great Robbie Williams.
Love the video and the song. This is the first song out of the new album called: "Under The Radar Volume I."
Hope you will love this awesome lyric.
Robbie Williams - H. E. S. (Heavy Entertainment Show)
Brothers,
If only God can judge us
Then who clear up the rubbish down here
Cause they don't care for us
There's trouble
Calling out of that rubble
The whole world is in a bubble I swear
And the shit that you were fed
is in your head
It's the heavy entertainment show
See the world through a teaching eyes
We are living in the wildest times
Lost my mind a while ago
When and where I do not know
We are living in a world of lies
And we've been giving it it's hardest fight
In a hallway down below
At the heavy entertainment show
She suspects
The military conflicts
And bankers let genocide fly
We do what the man says then go to bed
Then go to bed
At the heavy entertainment show
See the world through a teaching eyes
We are living in the wildest times
Lost my mind a while ago
When and where I do not know
We are living in a world of lies
And we've been giving it it's hardest fight
In a hallway down below
At the heavy entertainment show
Hey good looking why don't you come over here
Tell me a few things that I wanna hear
You come whisper them inside of my ear
Tear down the walls make them disappear
I said hey good looking would you come my way
Still got a few songs left to play
And I got two tickets would you like to go
To the heavy entertainment show
See the world through a teaching eyes
We are living in the wildest times
Lost my mind a while ago
When and where I do not know
We are living in a world of lies
And we've been giving it it's hardest fight
In a hallway down below
At the heavy entertainment show

Robbie Williams, 2014-05-25 - Rock In Rio, Lisbon
Sun, May 25, 2014 in Lisbon, Portugal @ Rock In Rio (Parque da Bela Vista)
I went to Rock In Rio to see Robbie Williams (for the 4th time, 3 shows and 1 act in the MTV Awards) live. I arrive at Parque da Bela Vista at 6h30 am. It was another big day of waiting. But it worth every minute of it.
Before Robbie Williams in Rock In Rio, Lisbon played Boss AC & Aurea and Paloma Faith.
The first singers were Boss AC & Aurea. They played for 48 minutes.
They were very good live. I was not expecting this. But I really like it.
Setlist Aurea:
01. The Main Things About Me
02. Okay Alright
03. Busy (for me)
04. Scratch My Back
05. Happy (Pharrell Williams cover) (with Boss AC)
Setlist Boss AC:
01. Hip Hop (Sou Eu e És Tu)
02. Lena (A Culpa Não É Tua)
03. Princesa (Beija-Me Outra Vez)
04. Tu És Mais Forte
05. Sexta-Feira (Emprego Bom Já)
06. Happy (Pharrell Williams cover) (with Aurea)
The second singer was Paloma Faith. She played for 54 minutes.
First time I ever heard of her. I liked when she spoke a little portuguese reading from a paper but it was a little boring her sound.
I will write here the setlist:
01. Mouth to Mouth
02. Take Me
03. Taste My Own Tears
04. Impossible Heart
05. Other Woman
06. Teardrops / Million Dollar Bill
07. Can't Rely on You
08. Crazy Love
09. Trouble With My Baby
10. Picking Up the Pieces
11. The Bigger You Love (The Harder You Fall)
12. Only Love Can Hurt Like This
Finally was time for Robbie Williams. He played for 77 minutes.
What an amazing show it was. Robbie is really an amazing entertainer. You can check my videos to remember.
Robbie made a tour (Swings Both Ways) show but as it was a festival it sang also some of his greatest hits. I really love the complete show. Made videos of almost all the concert, only miss the first 2 songs. Hope you enjoy my videos. One time Robbie came down and went up almost in front of me. I grab his hand while he sang a little. Other 2 times he came down and I made it to touch his hand those 2 times.
I will write here the setlist:
01. Let Me Entertain You
02. Let Love Be Your Energy
03. Monsoon
04. We Will Rock You / I Love Rock n Roll
05. Rock DJ
06. Come Undone (With "Walk On The Wild Side" snippet by Lou Reed and "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" snippet by U2)
07. Ignition (R. Kelly cover)
08. Puttin' On the Ritz (Jeff Richman cover)
09. Minnie The Moocher (Cab Calloway and His Orchestra cover)
10. New York, New York (Frank Sinatra cover) (With "Empire State of Mind" snippet by Alicia Keys)
11. Trouble / Hit the Road / Reet Petite / Shout
12. Kids
13. Wonderwall (Oasis cover)

15. Candy
16. Feel
17. Angels

HOLLYWOOD — When you're Robbie Williams, this is how the dating scene in Los Angeles works: You meet a girl, she blows you off, then she looks up your name on the Internet search engine Google, finds out you're one of the richest pop stars in the world, and voila! You get lucky.
"I bump into these girls and they are like really not interested," the British singer explained with his famously wry smile, dressed in a T-shirt and warm-up pants and walking his dogs through the hills overlooking his adopted city. "The next time I see them, they are like, 'Hey, nice to meet you, Robbie!' So I've been told, 'That girl "googled" you, because she knows who you are now.' Hurray for 'googling'! Science got me laid.
"I got laid twice because they thought I was Robin Williams, which is kind of cool," he added.
Robbie's Hollywood dating situation — joke or not — is quite indicative of the current phase of his musical career. An Internet search for his name generates close to half a million pages, yet most Americans are largely unfamiliar with the charismatic breakout star from British boy band Take That!. In 1999, "Millennium," from The Ego Has Landed compilation drawn from his first two overseas albums, was moderately successful in the U.S. And of course there was "Rock DJ," an oddball dance number that the eclectic singer now says he hates, though he likes the video, in which he rips off his skin and tosses it out to adoring female fans. But compared to the Justins and Snoop Doggs, he's still obscure on this side of the pond.
Late last year, Williams signed the biggest British record deal in history, reportedly worth over $100 million, shortly after recording his latest album, Escapology. EMI is hoping this album will finally break him in the U.S. Though he owns a house in Los Angeles and has written several songs about the town, Williams says he isn't dying to make it in the States, and in fact, insisted he's enjoying the relative anonymity.
"I'm very pleased to say I've got a successful career everywhere else," he said. "And this is a massive country. It involves a lot of work. And it involves a lot of ass-kissing as well, and touring for years. I used to work very hard and it made me very ill. And I refuse to work that hard again. So, if [success] happens here by doing very little, then great. But if it doesn't, it's cool.
"I want to sell a few hundred thousand albums here," he added. "And I'll be happy with that."
Featuring a somewhat different track list than its imported counterpart, the domestic version of Escapology fully encapsulates the strengths Williams has developed over the years: a silky smooth and versatile voice, finely honed Britpop sensibilities, swinging bluster, driving power, the occasional veer into starkly emotional territory ("Nan's Song" is about his late grandmother), inventive storytelling ("Me and My Monkey"), emotional self-analysis (most evident in the album's first single, "Feel") and of course, a self-deprecating wit.
"I'm just getting started musically," he said thoughtfully. "I think I'm just finding myself. I can see from this album where I want to go and what I want to sound like. I think the pressure's on the record company. So, all I got to do is deliver [good albums], and I've done that before. And I'm getting better at it each album.
"And plus, if [Escapology] bombs, what the hey," he said with a laugh. "I'm in the hills. I've got my dogs. I've got the life, you know?"
