Robbie Williams has released a new video for his single ‘Pretty Face’, featuring a nostalgic time-travel theme. In the visualiser, he dons his famous red tracksuit and transforms into his ’90s self, performing on the iconic TV show The Word.
Directed by Charlie Lightening with stunning production and VFX by AIST, the video offers a realistic portrayal of what Robbie’s appearance on the Channel 4 show might have looked like.
“This is my ‘DeLorean Moment’ back to 1995,”
Robbie said. “The Word was the late-night gateway to so many - Nirvana, Oasis, Happy Mondays… If ‘BRITPOP’ is the album I would have made, then THIS would have been the TV show.”
‘Pretty Face’ is the sixth single from Robbie’s upcoming album BRITPOP, scheduled for release on 6th February 2026. Previous singles include ‘Desire’, ‘Pocket Rocket’, ‘Rocket’, ‘Spies’, and ‘Human’.
The video captures the essence of the ’90s, showcasing Robbie performing energetically on stage during a time when audiences could not always keep up with every beat.
This project celebrates the cultural impact of The Word and positions Robbie’s new work squarely within the spirit of ’90s Britpop.
