The album is packed with a heap of top-notch collaborations with well known names such as American songstress Kelly Clarkson, X Factor runner up Olly Murs and everyone’s favourite crooner Michael Buble.

Another famous face on the bill is Lily Allen who performs with Willaims on a rendition of the timeless classic ‘Dream a Little Dream’. Allen jumped at the chance to work with Robbie stating that “Dream A Little Dream’ is one of my favourite songs of all time so I didn’t hesitate when Robbie asked me if I’d like to duet with him on it.”

The track in which the album has taken it’s name, ‘Swings Both Ways’ is yet another collaboration written and performed with singer songwriter Rufus Wainwright who described working with Robbie as “a dream come true.” Stating that “Robbie is the real deal, full package, a total mensch”
