We want Robbie and Kylie with us and Queen playing
PRS for Music reveal the UK’s most popular Desert Island track and who we’d like to take with us
With a new single about to be released and rumours of a possible reunion with Take That, Robbie Williams still seems to be one of the nation’s favourite pop stars. A survey by PRS for Music has revealed that Robbie is the ultimate choice of male star to be taken on a desert island with Kylie being top of the charts for our female companion.
Robbie also does well in the music stakes having the second most popular desert island disc with ‘Angels’. Queen’s timeless classic ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ topped the chart of songs we’d like to take with us, with their 1979 hit ‘Don’t Stop Me Know’ the third most popular choice.
- Bohemian Rhapsody – Queen

- Don’t Stop Me Now – Queen
