Ahead of his upcoming performances at the Royal Estate of Sandringham, Robbie Williams had an interview with The Sun, where he expressed interest in working with Radiohead for a cover project. He said:
“I want to do a cover of ‘It’s Raining Men’ [by Weather Girls], but I want Radiohead to do a backing track for me. But they have not got back to me. I keep asking but nothing back. I dunno. I might ask Trent Reznor.”
While Williams is getting ready for his new work, Radiohead has been on a hiatus since its last tour in 2018. The band members are currently dealing with their separate projects.
They last came together to re-release the records ‘Kid A’ and ‘Amnesiac’ for their 20th anniversary in 2021. According to drummer Philip Selway, the band has plans for new material in the upcoming years, though. He recently told Prog Magazine:
“We’re always talking about stuff. But in terms of an actual kind of collective project, beyond the ‘Kid A’ and ‘Amnesiac’ stuff that we’ve been doing, it’s kind of further down the line for us when that will happen. We’re talking about that, but at the moment, everybody’s doing their own thing.”
Radiohead also released a studio album called ‘A Moon Shaped Pool’ back in 2016. You can listen to it below.
