LOS ANGELES, Oct. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Robbie Williams has today announced that a new deluxe edition of his multi-million-selling debut solo album, Life Thru A Lens, will be released on December 2 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the record.
The special expanded 4-CD album, out on UMe/Island Records, combines the original chart-topping record – including the hit singles "Angels," "Let Me Entertain You," "Old Before I Die," "Lazy Days," and "South Of The Border" – as well as bonus tracks and B-sides. The new edition will also feature previously unreleased demos, rehearsal recordings, and rare remixes, as well as the first audio release of the complete concert recorded at London's The Forum in June 1998, released that November as "Live In Your Living Room" on VHS tape and VCD but never reissued.
Life Thru A Lens was originally released in September 1997, spending two weeks at Number 1 on the UK Album Chart and 92 weeks in the UK Top 40. It has sold 2.1 million copies in the UK alone. The deluxe edition will be available in 4-CD Box Set, vinyl, and digital download formats. To listen to or pre-order Robbie Williams' Life Thru A Lens, click HERE.
Robbie secured his 14th UK Number 1 album last month with XXV, which topped the chart in its first week of release. With this amazing achievement, the music icon has now broken the record for the solo artist with the most UK Number 1 albums - only The Beatles now have more UK Number 1 albums than Robbie with 15. His total chart-topping UK albums across his solo work and records released with Take That now stands at 19. It places him in the top two acts of all time with the most Number 1s across their catalog, with only Paul McCartney with more.
