Chosen as the third track to be lifted from Robbie’s comeback album 'Reality Killed The Video Star', 'Morning Sun' was released as a charity single for Sport Relief in early 2010. Originally written as a tribute to Michael Jackson, 'Morning Sun' took on a new meaning during the writing process, eventually becoming semi-autobiographical. The song is classic Robbie, incorporating sweeping string lines that gel perfectly with Williams' smooth vocals and melancholy lyrics. 'Morning Sun' is sure to please those who have appreciated 'Angels', 'Advertising Space' and 'You Know Me' in the past.
This track is a real testament to commitment Robbie has as a songwriter, focusing on the strong vocal melody without ever overpowering the lush instrumentation. Having carved out a niche as a specialist in ballad writing, this track continues to his high standards – something that highlighted by his Outstanding Contribution Brit award win. 'Morning Sun' serves as one of the best tracks from 'Reality Killed The Video Star' - an album that seeks to demonstrate artistic development and variation from this industry veteran. ~ John Rowley ~ Copyright (c) Shazam Entertainment Limited 2010.
