Subscribe to Heretics Clips for raw, unfiltered conversations with icons who actually say what they think. In this episode, Robbie Williams tells Andrew Gold why he can’t write another “Angels”—and what happens to an artist when a single song becomes a shadow you can’t step out of. Watch to hear the pressure, the fear, the craft, and the truth behind the hit that defined a generation. Subscribe here: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Why does creative lightning strike once—and why is it so hard to summon again on command? Robbie pulls back the curtain on the alchemy of songwriting: the accident, the obsession, and the timing you can’t fake. He talks candidly about chasing that same transcendence and the uncomfortable reality that audiences expect miracles on schedule. Is the next classic one honest verse away—or is trying to top a masterpiece the surest way to kill it? Robbie opens up about the strange bargain of fame: how adoration and ridicule arrive in the same breath, why he still doomscrolls the comments, and how that noise creeps into the studio. He speaks about anxiety, ADHD, and the creative rituals that keep him writing when the stakes feel impossibly high. You’ll hear the difference between making a hit and making something true—and why he’s choosing truth. We revisit the early days—Take That, the breakout, the solo leap—then sit with the artist he is now: older, funnier, sharper, and more self-aware. He unpacks ego, faith, and the nagging inner voice asking, “Was ‘Angels’ the peak—or just one chapter?” Expect stories, jokes, and moments of naked honesty that only Robbie can deliver. If you’ve ever wondered how stars live with their greatest work—or how creative people keep going after the world crowns one song “the one”—this is the conversation you’ll replay. Part confession, part craft masterclass, and completely Heretical. 🎧 Watch the full interview and tell us what “Angels” means to you. #RobbieWilliams #Angels #HereticsPodcast #HereticsClips #AndrewGold #Songwriting #MusicIndustry #ADHD #MentalHealth #Fame #CelebrityCulture #BritishPop #TakeThat
