Musician and old friend, Bobby Long remembers a very different Robert Pattinson than the actor and object of global female attention.

"Robert lived in a dingy, horrible, little flat in Soho near Denmark Street," Long recalls to Celebuzz. "We used to hang out and play music until five in the morning, really going for it. Drinking and all that stuff."

"We only ate pizza for like two months. We ballooned on weight," Long recalls. "But it probably helped the vampire look. I know I was really pale."

"It was really chilled-out. Watching films, listening to music and writing."

Long also talks about the song Let Me Sign:

As the friendship grew, the acting connections worked out well for all the musicians when Pattinson returned to London after shooting Twilight. Long and Foster played a song they had written called "Let Me Sign" in Pattinson's apartment. It was nothing serious.

"(Robert) thought the song was really cool and took it to L.A.," Long recalls. "Before I knew it, it was going to be used in the film."

The song was famously performed by Pattinson in the film. Long was able to see the emotional impact first-hand when he heard the song at the London Twilight premiere. "Everyone was crying during the song," he says. "I feel like it's his song now. He's incredible at interpreting people's work."
