Pop legend Robbie joined JK and Kelly Brook on Heart Drive today (March 25th), where he recalled covering Blur’s 'Parklife' with Danny at last summer’s BST Hyde Park.

"It was an absolute thrill for me working with Danny," he told JK and Kelly. "I think Danny's one of those people that was kind of like me, where you're eccentric and misunderstood through your twenties, because you're unusual and nobody is like you.
"And I think there was sort of a lot of judgments for Danny, and a lot of judgment for me, and then hopefully when you get middle aged and you grow into your paws. Because I think we were like both little dogs with big paws.
"I think that we’ve both grown into our bodies, and I think there's kind of more acceptance for our eccentricities. So, I think that's why it makes sense."
