Robbie Williams Teams Up With Dad For Unforgettable “Sweet Caroline” Rendition
On 17 June 2017, Robbie Williams electrified a packed Aviva Stadium in Dublin with a performance full of energy and nostalgia during his Heavy Entertainment Tour. This being his twelfth solo tour, Robbie was well-versed in commanding a stage.
But this night felt a bit more personal. Robbie shared a heartfelt memory, reminiscing about how watching his father sing sparked his own love for music. He then honored that connection by performing a cover of Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline,” a song close to his heart, often sung by his dad.
Surprisingly, Robbie Williams’ father, Pete Conway, stepped onto the stage from the shadows, ready to show just how much of an influence he’s been on his son. With undeniable charisma, he performed the first verse solo and instantly captivated the audience.
Shortly after, Robbie joined him, and together they created a moving duet that touched the audience’s hearts. You clearly see the pride on Robbie’s face when he looks at his dad.
The father-son connection was palpable, as their voices blended seamlessly, leaving a memorable and emotional impression on everyone watching.
Robbie Williams has often invited his father, Pete Conway, to join him on stage. Every time they perform together, the audience is treated to a charming and heartfelt connection that shows exactly where Robbie’s musical roots come from.
One of their standout performances took place in Las Vegas in 2019, where the duo, dressed in sharp suits, gave a delightful rendition of ‘Sweet Caroline’ before moving on to the timeless Sinatra classic “That’s Life.”
