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

 

:huh: Well i heard a couple of months ago it sold over 6 million so i doubt it sold 4 million in such a short time when it was only US #1 for a week :o

Well i did like You're beautiful at the beginning.......

but his voice sounds so boring......that's just my opinion ofcourse -_-

That makes me feel better about IC then. If it has sold over 6 million without the US market (and with about a million less UK sales) Robbie must be very much more popular in the 'Rest of the World'

Yeah well IC was the best selling album in Europe last year and was only out since the end of October. Back to bedlam was out since 2004 :dance:

Robbie Williams is happy being single

 

Washington: British singer Robbie Williams has revealed that he's happy being on the singles' list, and that he's not 'desperate' to be in a relationship.

 

The 'Feel' singer said that he didn't find being single synonymous with being lonely, and contrary to what some people might think, he was perfectly OK with not being in a relationship.

 

"Look, we could all psychoanalyse Robbie Williams. 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," Contactmusic quoted him, as saying.

 

As for having someone to hold in the middle of the nights, well Williams is just as content to have his computer and sleeping pills keeping him company.

 

"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!" he added

You and me both, Scarlett. :lol:

 

 

Oh good, I thought it was just me :wacko:

E17 stay a day too many :D

 

More than a decade after they dominated the charts, Take That's is the second biggest tour of 2006, trumped only by stadium-straddling fellow veteran of the synchronised dance routine, Robbie Williams.

 

Tony Mortimer, Brian Harvey and the two nameless loiterers struggled to sell out a single reunion show at this mid-sized venue, although the 2,000 fans who made the journey did scream with the volume of many more.

 

That enthusiasm, plus the fact that the group have cheerily given the impression they are only interested in making some beer money, created an atmosphere of fond nostalgia rather than something mercenary and mechanical.

 

However, time has not been kind. Songwriter Mortimer, whose neck is now wider than his head, was barely recognisable. Boxy bigscreen graphics looked cheap rather than retro, and many of the songs now sounded so dated they might as well have been performed on the lute.

 

The band emerged from rave culture, a sound yet to come back into fashion despite the best efforts of hot new band Klaxons. Mortimer has said he would rather they were compared to the Prodigy than Take That, and it was almost possible to see his point on explosively energetic tracks such as House of Love and Steam. But I had forgotten how many of their other songs were syrupy dribbles, low-rent stabs at the worst kind of American R&B.

 

Apart from three dancers inexplicably used on only one song, and a costume change from white jackets into the kind of shirts you might throw on to ensure entry into a Yates's Wine Lodge, there was little to catch the eye. The fans loved it, but East 17 are unlikely to enjoy another day like this one.

 

How Cruel! :rofl: :blush:
