The musician, who is making his comeback tour, endured a not so spectacular climax to his performance at the Royal Albert Hall in London on Wednesday night when he tripped during a late-night visit to the toilet.
The 'Another Day In Paradise' hit-maker then hit his head on a chair and was forced to make an emergency trip to the hospital.
