British tourists in Seville were left completely floored when they realised that the singer performing in the street was none other than Robbie Williams. The Brit Award-winning musician began belting out his global hit 'Angels' in a public square as visitors enjoyed their evening drinks. It did not take long before listeners recognised the former Take That star.
Spontaneous Performance in Seville
Robbie Williams, dressed in a casual all-black outfit and a cap, performed an acoustic rendition of 'Angels', which was originally released in December 1997. He appeared to show the guitarist, who was the actual busker, the chords on a mobile phone before launching into the song. As the audience danced and sang along, Williams joked, 'You know it!' and quipped, 'Obviously [it's] not very famous here' as he struggled to keep up with the guitarist.
Viral TikTok Video
The moment was captured by TikTok user @cierancasey2609, who posted a video captioned 'Robbie Williams in Seville'. The clip has since amassed 195,000 views. In the video, people are seen excitedly running from their tables and filming upon realising it was the real Robbie Williams. At the end of the chorus, he shouted into the mic, 'I'm off!' and walked away with his hands raised as the crowd cheered and clapped.
Online Reactions
Viewers online were equally stunned by the shock performance. 'Absolutely nuts,' one person wrote, followed by: 'Timing is everything, could not buy that moment in time.' Another commented, 'No because I'd CRY,' while a fourth wrote: 'Imagine sitting there, casually having a drinky drink and THE Robbie Williams strolls by.'
Concert Schedule
The 'Rock DJ' hitmaker was in Seville on June 30 performing at the Iconica Santalucia Sevilla Fest before heading to Morocco for Jazzablanca on Thursday, July 2.
