No. Nor me if I'm honest. :cry:

 

And this will make matters worse.

 

Rat's it for rodent Williams

BIZARRE readers have blasted singer ROBBIE WILLIAMS’ new single Rudebox, saying it sounds like telly puppet ROLAND RAT.

 

 

When I first heard the single I thought it was terrible — as I revealed in Saturday’s paper.

 

Now judge for yourself. Click here to listen to listen to a clip of Rudebox and the original tune it samples, Sly and Robbie’s 1983 hit Boops (Here To Go).

 

About 90 per cent of Robbie fans who got in touch with me agree that it's awful.

 

Ben Scarr slammed it, saying: “Rudebox sounds like Roland Rat’s 1983 hit Rat Rapping. It’s the worst song released by a major artist in the history of pop music.â€

 

And Kev in Edinburgh went one step further: “Biggest pile of rubbish I’ve ever heard! A complete joke.

 

“Robbie’s been going downhill since he parted company with song-writer GUY CHAMBERS — this is just rock bottom.

 

“I think OASIS should give him back the wreath he gave them a few years ago. Robbie Williams R.I.P.†It seems even Robbie’s most loyal followers have given him a bashing too.

 

Sandra in Melbourne, Australia, said: “How the hell can us RW fans sing along to THAT! Disappointing.â€

 

Alicia Beattie added: “It is shockingly c*** and has the most random lyrics. ‘TK Maxx costs less, Jackson looks a mess.’ It sounds like something a child has come up with.â€

 

Anthony Doyle chipped in: “I felt like ripping out my eardrums and throwing them at the radio. I think Robbie has lost his touch.â€

 

However, Tom from Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire, said: “I’m no Robbie fan but Rudebox is quality, really funky cutting-edge stuff, much better than soppy ballads! Good on ya.â€

 

Robbie defended Rudebox yesterday when he called Radio 1 DJ SCOTT MILLS live on air.

 

He said: “The single has polarised opinion. A lot of people hate it, lots of people love it. The same happened with (my 2004 single) Radio.â€

 

When Scott asked if criticism of the track hurt him he replied: “Yes it bothers me. I love this record and I’m really proud of it so yes. It’s my track and I love it to death.â€

 

Robbie also rounded up other showbiz big guns to back him up.

 

CHRIS MOYLES (who is a mate of Robbie) said on his Breakfast Show yesterday: “I can’t decide. I’ve only heard it once. Whether it’s good or bad I just don’t know yet.

 

“I don’t think it’s rubbish, I just think it’s odd. I think it’s very odd.

 

“I so want him to get back with Guy Chambers. I miss those songs. He’s probably bored of it and thinks it’s twee but I like it.†VERNON KAY (who doesn’t know the singer) said: “The new Robbie record is a step in a different direction for him.

 

“It sounds slightly like he’s taking the mickey out of British R&B with the accent he’s putting on! Now I’ve heard it a few times, it’s really grown on me.â€

 

But Radio 1’s EDITH BOWMAN (who has known Rob for years) said: “I was really disappointed with Robbie’s last album, but it’s nice to see him challenge himself.

 

“I’m not a big fan of the first single but some of the other tracks on the album are really interesting.â€

 

I told you on Saturday that I reckoned Robbie would refuse to send me the rest of his album for review because I slated the single.

 

I’m still waiting for the album — perhaps the Robster’s running scared.

 

I know, I've already seen it. After Saturday's article I thought it couldn't get any worse. Well, I was wrong. I'm lost for words on this one. :o

It shouldn't be allowed. Someone fire that woman, please. :arrr:

Literally. From a cannon. -_-

Hey Ho.

 

As my old grandaddy used to say-

'There's no such thing as bad publicity' ;)

It's a pile of $h!t :P

It's a pile of $h!t :P

Agreed :D

:arrr: :arrr: :arrr: :nono:

 

Be off with you into our 'Rudebox is a pile of $h!t' thread. And stay there. Or else. :whip:

Victoria Newton has pissed me off so much I've decided I'm just going to laugh now. Life's too short.

 

So here's the photo from the Currant Bun (The Sun for all non-Scottish peeps)

 

 

Ha Ha. Roland Rat was a very underrated rapper IMHO. :P
