Speaking in the interview, during the German music festival, Hurricane, the musician and the interviewer are heard discussing the Royal Family, in which Robert makes his dislike for them known.
Whilst the interviewer states that the monarch is ‘as popular as ever’, Robert responds: ‘The Queen’s gonna die on September 7th, and there’ll be a huge uprising, and I’ll be made King.
He later ends the video by shouting: ‘Vote for me for king!’ and making a peace sign.

Another added: ‘Can we just talk about the fact that ten years ago Robert Smith predicted that the Queen would die on September 7?’

The Queen’s death will see Britain and her Commonwealth realms enter into a ten-day period of mourning as millions of her subjects in the UK and abroad come to terms with her passing.
There will also be a celebration of her historic 70-year reign that saw her reach her Platinum Jubilee this year – a landmark unlikely to be reached again by a British monarch.
Charles, the King, said: ‘The death of my beloved mother, Her Majesty The Queen, is a moment of the greatest sadness for me and all members of my family.
‘We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished sovereign and a much-loved mother. I know her loss will be deeply felt throughout the country, the Realms and the Commonwealth, and by countless people around the world.
‘During this period of mourning and change, my family and I will be comforted and sustained by our knowledge of the respect and deep affection in which the Queen was so widely held.’
