Yet another silly Mirror article :rolleyes: Twisting his words to make up a load of $h!te as usual :arrr:

 

HERE ROB EGOS AGAIN

 

Kiki King, Eva Simpson & Caroline Hedley

WE'VE just been given another glimpse into the mindset of Robbie Williams - and it's not pleasant viewing.

 

In a rant at those who claim he is afraid to commit, 32-year-old Robbie has said he doesn't nee d the love of a good woman - because he has sleeping pills and his computer for company!

 

Not only that, but the egomaniacal former Take That star admits regularly typing his name into internet search engine Google to find out what people are saying about him, and has started referring to himself in the third person.

 

"Look we could all psychoanalyse Robbie Williams," he raved recently. "I'm not desperate to be in a relationship. It's another piece of the jigsaw, that's all.

 

"I'm alone. I'm not lonely. I'm OK. I've got the computer and the sleeping pills. Things are fine.

 

"I know people will say, 'Check out the ego on Robbie Williams going online to see what people say about him.' But it's never anything nice!"

 

Poor lad. At least he can console himself with the release of his next single, a double A side of Ghosts and A Place To Crash, in August. Then in September his tour kicks of f in Glasgow.

Pet Shop joy for Robbie

 

The Sun

 

NEIL TENNANT has been dropping hints on what to expect when we hear the tracks the PET SHOP BOYS have recorded for ROBBIE WILLIAMS’ new dance album.

 

He said: “We’ve done two songs with Robbie. It sounds really good. We haven’t really written with anyone before.â€

 

Neil described the album as “electronic dance.â€

 

I told you last month how Robbie was inspired to try a new dance style by KYLIE MINOGUE.

 

It will be out in August.

So a new album and single out in the same month. Something does'nt fit here. He will no doubt be releasing a single from the dance album before it's released so how is this possible :wacko:
who cares just aslong as it happens or maybe the single will be in the new dance album??? (doubt it though) just aslong as they are both released ill be happy- august is gonna be a good month
The dance album was confirmed by Stephen Duffy to be released end of October on Radio2's coverage of the Ivor Novello awards.

Well, maybe the UK leg kicks off in September would be more accurate...

Can we believe a word of this I want to know if the single rumours are true now <_<

Errr, I forgot to set the video to tape Posh n Becks World Cup Party. Was Robbie on it? Did they show any of his performance? :unsure: :cry:
Robbie wasn't on it much Jupiter, and there was no performance. I was a little disappointed. Never mind. :D After having just got home after Soccer Aid I was rather hoping for a vocal to top the weekend off.

well, actually I am kind of glad they did not show Robbie performing. It was a very wise decision IMO. After witnessing the great family day out event called Soccer Aid and then watching the Becks party it did nothing but leave a sour taste in my mouth, well, I just felt it was tasteless, tacky and for the love of anything decent do I really want to know about how well off the Beckhams are, most of the time I was thinking about the ordinary decent people who could not rub two halfpennies together and had to watch the Beckhams self indulgence.

 

Thank goodness Robbie turned up in jeans. :thumbup:

London - A radio station has responded to James Blunt's suggestion that anyone who does not like his music should simply switch off the radio, by banning his tracks from the airwaves.

 

In a move that may be closely monitored by other stations, Essex FM announced that from today it would no longer play Blunt's hits You're Beautiful and Goodbye My Lover.

 

The GCap Media station said it was responding to recent audience research, which revealed that listeners had tired of Blunt's distinctive sound.

 

 

"Quite often there will be popular artists that people are starting to grow weary of. This time, the number of specific comments about James Blunt were more than we have ever seen for one particular artist," Chris Cotton, the programme controller, said.

 

"It was quite staggering. People said, 'Can you get rid of him?' 'Can you ban him?' Even people who say they are fans of his songs go on to express that they're sick of it."

 

Initially, the station will ban Blunt for a few days while eliciting feedback. But early indications suggest listeners are happy with the decision.

 

When the station announced its intention to ban the singer, the switchboard was inundated.

 

"The amount of feedback is enormous, so it looks like there'll be a pretty long-term ban," Mr Cotton said.

 

"This does tend to happen when artists reach a certain level of popularity, when it becomes wall-to-wall coverage.

 

"He has a unique sound and is an honest songwriter. That's the sort of combination that makes someone stand out, but people also tend to tire of that sound.

 

"We don't have anything against James Blunt and we're pleased he has been so successful, but we really need a break.

 

"While his songs have been very popular, there is a tremendous amount of industry pressure to play certain artists frequently.

 

"Often this can be out of step with the audience's tastes, which results in songs being overplayed.

 

"We're happy to stand up to this pressure. We encourage other radio stations to take the same step."

 

Blunt's music has been labelled too bland by many people, but last week he was given the music industry seal of approval when he won two Ivor Novello awards.

 

"You're Beautiful" was voted international hit of the year and most performed work at the ceremony, which recognises songwriting talent.

 

Accepting his award, Blunt said: "To all those bast*rds who don't like my music - you're all adults, you can switch your radio off."

 

Asked if he ever got sick of his music, the former Household Cavalry officer whose love life, including a fling with Tara Palmer-Tomkinson, has made headlines, said: "I don't have to listen to it. I'm the one who sings it. And it's continued to get me laid."

 

Blunt has not found it quite so easy to seduce the audience of Essex FM, who, according to the station's playlist, prefer the music of Corinne Bailey Rae, Robbie Williams and Keane.

"You're Beautiful" reached number one in 25 countries, and in March Blunt became the first British artist to top the US Billboard chart in nine years.

 

His album Back to Bedlam has sold more than seven million copies worldwide.

 

Acknowledging that some people might be tiring of his songs, when he accepted the Novello award for Most Performed Work, Blunt said: "I should probably be rude about it before anyone else is. So thank you very much for the Most Overplayed Song award."

 

In 1999, BBC Radio 1 and Radio 2 refused to play "Millennium Prayer" by Sir Cliff Richard. It went to number one despite a lack of airplay.

 

:rofl: There Is A God!!!! :lol:

With apologies to any James Blunt fans who might be reading this. -_-

Sounds like my dream Radio station :P Only kidding of course. I do like some of his songs ^_^

 

But i am shocked his album has'nt sold alot more than 7 million. You would think an album which has been out since 2004 and has sold well over a million in the US would've done alot better. :o

I thought Back to Bedlam had sold about 10 million or something. Obviously not then. :o
