"Radio" is a song by British pop singer Robbie Williams, co-written by Williams and Stephen Duffy. It was the first single from Williams' compilation album Greatest Hits, released in 2004. Williams wrote the song's distinctive synth-pop melody by attempting to play Harold Faltermeyer's "Axel F" on an electronic keyboard from memory. "Radio" is Williams's first solo outing without the involvement of long-time producer and co-writer Guy Chambers, and is particularly notable as Williams's last UK number-one for eight years, until 2012's "Candy".

Chart performance

"Radio" became Robbie Williams' sixth number-one single on the UK Singles Chart, selling 41,734 copies during its first week.[3][4] The song was Williams's last UK number-one for eight years until "Candy" took the top spot in November 2012.[3] "Radio" also topped the Danish Singles Chart and reached the top 10 across Europe, peaking at number one on the Eurochart Hot 100.[5][6] In Australia, the single charted at number 12, and after seven weeks on the charts, the single was certified gold.[7][8]
