The infamous victim of abuse from her grandfather Josef Fritzl, who kept her in a dungeon in Austria until authorities found her recently, woke from a two-month coma by listening to Robbie Williams songs.

Williams' hits were played to Kerstin Fritzl through headphones for three days before she left the coma.

According to The Sun, Fritzl, 19, who had never been in the open air before she was rescued earlier this year, is now able to dance to the songs, and has indicated that she wants to see Williams play live.

Her doctor, Albert Reiter, explained: "She was sitting up in bed, waving her arms and dancing. One night I had to order her to finally go to sleep at 3am as she kept listening to Robbie Williams' CDs."

no, but he should have been.

Come on you guys, can any of you even begin to imagine what the girl went through? If listening to Robbie Williams brought her out of a coma and made her happy then who are any of you to criticise or make fun of that?

Easy now. This is just some trivial news that they never had to release, they did because they're probably looking for media attention.

I'm not riled KS, just more empathetic than some.

From the news reports I heard, she was in a doctor induced coma but she said her favorite musician was Robbie Williams after she awoke. I didn't hear anything about her awakening because they had his music playing.

exactly. i live in austria and that´s what i also heard. Among the things she wants to do now in her new life is going to a Robbie Williams concert.

It's just the cheesy media response we're making fun of - imho.

I guess no soul on this thread would not wish the girl a good recovery from her agony she suffered.
