Old Before I Die, Let Me Entertain You and Angels were the only songs i enjoyed from that era. If he launched his career with Angels he would have hit it off straight away. That said, it all worked out in the end for him with thanks to Angels. Lie To Me, should have been the lead for 12 Months 11 Days, i still believe that song would have had success back then, despite Garys situation at that time.

That said, he must be a forgiving man as he put the past in the past with Robbie who was a massive part of the humiliation at the time.

Mark and Robbie to my knowledge remained in touch and friendly but Howard and Jason had also falling out with Robbie. From the documentary it did appear Jason had more issues with Robbie returning than anyone.

I can imagine it's not more than 5k, but I'd like to have a confirmed number. I've always been curious about how much of a "disaster" that release really was.
