Toyah Willcox and Robert Fripp have made a playful return to their weekly Sunday Lunch video cover series. This time, the dynamic duo tackled the iconic Bikini Kill hit ‘Rebel Girl’ in their latest installment. The couple, who kickstarted their YouTube series five years ago, have become known for their whimsical interpretations of classic rock songs.

In their most recent episode, Toyah and Robert donned quirky headgear and swayed to the beat for a lively rendition of the 1993 hit ‘Rebel Girl’. Toyah Willcox, a multifaceted artist known for her punk and new wave music, joined forces with her husband Robert Fripp, a British guitarist and the mastermind behind the progressive rock band King Crimson.

Their rendition of ‘Rebel Girl’ is just the latest addition to the Sunday Lunch series. Recently, the duo has also covered hits like the Ohio Express song ‘Yummy Yummy Yummy’. In a previous video, they took on the iconic Cream track ‘Sunshine of Your Love’ in a unique way. Toyah poured pots of single cream over herself and then over her hair, ultimately embracing Robert at the end of the performance, resulting in both of them being covered in the dairy product.

In their latest video, Robert Fripp kicked things off with a charged guitar line for over a minute before concluding the performance with a broad smile and the declaration, “Yes! It’s ‘Rebel Girl’.” He then pointed to Toyah Willcox, praising the rendition as a “revolutionary” addition to their ‘Sunday Lunch’ series. Toyah, in a playful nod to the song’s lyrics, whispered, “And I want to try your clothes on…”

Despite the lighthearted energy of their videos, Robert Fripp recently disclosed that he suffered a heart attack in May, which led to the postponement of all his work commitments. On the other hand, Toyah Willcox is gearing up for a solo tour across the UK, scheduled to commence at the Union Chapel in London on October 18th.

The duo’s ‘Sunday Lunch’ series continues to charm viewers with its amusing and creative covers of classic songs. Toyah Willcox and Robert Fripp’s musical chemistry and playful antics make their videos a delightful watch for fans of all ages. Stay tuned for more entertaining covers and musical surprises from this talented pair.
