Robbie Williams surprised Spanish locals as he joined a busker in singing a rendition of Angels in Seville.
The former Take That star, 52, is currently playing across Europe as part of his Britpop tour, before he heads to Australia and New Zealand.
On Monday, he headed to one of the largest Spanish cities the day before his gig after his sold-out performance at the Live is Live festival in Antwerp, Belgium.
In a clip shared online, Robbie could be seen in a black outfit and baseball cap as he sang his hit 1997 song Angels, while the busker played the guitar.
A social media account that shared a recording of the singer performing wrote alongside the video: ‘In the heart of the Santa Cruz neighbourhood of Seville, in the Plaza de Santa María La Blanca, the singer @robbiewilliams.
‘He came across a street singer who was performing one of his songs and started singing it with him.’

It comes after Robbie was a potential lucky charm for England on June 17.
The former Take That star took to Instagram alongside his wife Ayda to share a video in which he stripped to his pants and debated ‘wearing his lucky clothes’.
In an accompanying caption, Ayda wrote: ‘Is anyone else’s husband doing this right now?’, as Robbie trawled his wardrobe for a lucky look ahead of watching the England team trump Croatia with a 4-2 victory in Dallas.
Speaking to the camera while looking at piles of clothes, Robbie said: ‘I genuinely don’t know what to wear. I need something lucky and I don’t know what that is…
‘I don’t know whether to be jazzy because England are playing, I don’t know whether to be jazzy but that’s like work me or do I go for something comfortable for the game.’
A disparaging Ayda said from behind the camera: ‘Genuine question, do you think what you’re wearing is going is actually going to help the results of the game?’ to which Robbie said: ‘As mental as that sounds it may come down to what I’m wearing’.

Robbie’s attachment to the England team comes after yet another link to the game after he boosted the coffers of League Two club Port Vale – splashing his initials across the front of their shirt
Robbie’s attachment to the England team comes after yet another link to the game after he boosted the coffers of League Two club Port Vale – splashing his initials across the front of their shirt.
Following in the footsteps of Ed Sheeran – who sponsors his own boyhood club, Ipswich Town – the Rock DJ extraordinaire will occupy the Valiants’ home and away shirt for the next two seasons.
The shirt is black and white with a slash design, featuring Williams’ official logo in the centre. Robbie, born in Stoke-on-Trent, is a lifelong Port Vale supporter and has long maintained a relationship with the club – becoming Honorary President in 2024.
Alongside sponsoring the shirt, Williams, who holds the record for BRIT Awards wins, has been named an ambassador for the Port Vale Foundation.
This is not his first involvement with the kit either; the former Take That star had input in the design process of all three strips for the 2020/21 season.
Announcing the deal, Williams said: ‘It feels pretty incredible, to be honest. Robbie Williams, on the front of a Port Vale shirt. It’s a match made in heaven, for me.
‘I started going to the Vale when it was 50p for a junior supporter to get in. It takes a village to raise a child, and the Railway Paddock at Vale Park raised me.
‘I’m back here and back involved because of [Chair and Co-Owner] Carol [Shanahan] and the family, and what they have created backstage. Being embraced again by the Port Vale family has been very important to me, and it feels wonderful.’
Port Vale’s chief executive officer Matt Hancock added: ‘This partnership means a huge amount to us here at the football club, and we are absolutely delighted to be working alongside Robbie.
‘He is not only a global superstar, but also a genuine supporter of the club with a deep and personal connection to our town. It’s that authenticity which makes this so powerful.
‘From the very first conversations, it was clear this was about Robbie’s life-long love for Port Vale and making a tangible difference to people’s lives.
‘The support and exposure the partnership will give to the club and Foundation will help us reach more people, create more opportunities and continue using the club as a force for good.
‘We’re grateful to Robbie and his team and can’t wait to see the partnership come to life, starting with the release of our new kits for 2026/27.’
