Gary Barlow - We Write The Songs with Robbie Williams

Robbie Williams and Gary Barlow enjoy a heart to heart about growing up, writing songs and life in-between.

Gary Barlow and Robbie Williams sit down for a heart to heart covering everything from the breakup of Take That to how Robbie coped during lockdown.

Robbie reveals he's rarely asked about his songwriting despite being one of the best-selling artists of all time, bagging seven number ones on his own and another seven as part of Take That.

Gary asks Robbie questions he's never asked before - find out and what it was like for Robbie in a pop band where Gary used to write all the songs.

Robbie chats about his epic songwriting partnership with Guy Chambers and how he crafts masterful lyrics taking inspiration from everyone - even his sister's poetry.
