Take That back for good

 

KEIRON PIM

 

December 5, 2006

 

When Take That announced they were splitting up in 1996, telephone helplines were set up to help their legions of distraught fans.

 

It might not have been much consolation to anyone who was upset at the time if you'd told them that their heroes would be back a decade later as popular as ever - but it would have been true.

 

The band is at number one both in the singles chart with Patience and the album chart with Beautiful World. It's a remarkable turnaround in fortunes for the four-piece, for while Robbie Williams went on to global stardom and became bigger than he ever was as part of Take That, the rest of the band seemed to lose their way.

 

Gary Barlow was always seen as "the talented one", tipped for a successful career purveying middle of the road ballads - but it never really happened. Jason Orange tried his hand at acting and then went to college to study sociology and psychology. Howard Donald recorded a single that was never released and became a DJ performing here and in Germany. Mark Owen has probably had the most success, releasing three solo albums and winning Celebrity Big Brother in 2002.

 

And then last November they announced that they would do what their fans always secretly hoped they would - they reformed, in some style. Tickets for a string of stadium concerts during the summer sold out rapidly.

 

More dates were added and were immediately snapped up. The gigs attracted the fans who had grown up with Take That in the 1990s and a whole new generation too - so it was little surprise when their support pushed the new single and album to the top of the charts.

 

As our photograph shows, they have a slightly more rugged look today than they did when they were fresh-faced twentysomethings, but their fans have grown up with them too and still love them.

 

"I think they have aged as well as any of us over the last 10 years," said Louise Wilson, from Hingham, near Watton, who saw Take That at Earls Court shortly before they split and travelled up to Sheffield this summer to watch them again.

 

"There was a slight cringe-factor seeing all these middle-aged women screaming at them, but they would have been the same people who used to scream at them, only 10 years older.

 

"But they really do put on a good show - although it was apparent that it was Gary Barlow that does about 90pc of the singing."

 

When the band formed in Manchester in 1990, they were initially targeted at the gay market, and their early gigs were chiefly at gay clubs. Their first video, for the song Do What U Like, saw them dancing around in skimpy

 

leather outfits and smearing themselves with jelly.

 

By the time the earlier of the two photos here was taken, their image had been reworked to pitch the band squarely at teenage girls, as a British answer to American boyband New Kids on the Block, and it was a strategy that paid off spectacularly. Their first big hit was It Only Takes a Minute, which reached number seven, and they followed this up with the Gary Barlow ballad A Million Love Songs and then I Found Heaven. Both reached the top 20.

 

Their cover of the disco hit Could It Be Magic crept up to number three, giving them their biggest hit to date, and when their first album, Take That and Party, came out in 1992 their place at the forefront of British pop music was secure.

 

The release the following year of the album Everything Changes just consolidated this, producing four UK number one singles: Pray (their first ever chart-topper), then Relight My Fire, Babe and the title track. The album also brought international success.

 

Take That maintained their popularity for the next two years but when Robbie Williams left in July 1995 to pursue his solo career the writing was on the wall.

 

They tried to carry on as a four-piece but no one was surprised when, in February 1996, Gary Barlow announced at a press conference: "Unfortunately the rumours are true, and How Deep Is Your Love is going to be our last single together and the Greatest Hits is going to be the last album."

 

But he was wrong, as he acknowledged in November last year, when he said: "Thank you very much for giving us the last 10 years off, but unfortunately the rumours are true… Take That are going back on tour."

 

So it was that the summer saw the original British boyband - perhaps that should be "man-band" nowadays - dusting off their dance moves and rekindling teenage memories for a whole generation.

 

With their new single and album both sitting at number one - a success Owen compared at the weekend to "winning the Premiership and Champions League in the same year" - their many fans, both old and new, will be hoping they're truly back for good.

I REALLY DO HOPE THEY ARE BACK FOR GOOD

An Audience With Take That, ITV, Saturday

Paul English

THEY'VE been away, but on Saturday night they proved they still have a special place in the heart of the nation.

 

Their flawless performance was the surprise TV event of the week.

 

Yep, the Snowman and the wee boy were back - I spotted them flying over Scotland on an ITV advert during An Audience With Take That.

 

Until then, there'd been no doubt that Gary Barlow squeezing himself into his school uniform was the week's big telly talking point.

 

But that was before the airing of the superb, if controversial, version of Raymond Briggs's Eighties cartoon, where The Snowman dumps the wee gingernut for a can of ginger.

 

Of course, it's not the first time Gary Barlow's been upstaged by a man who likes his, ahem, snow, having seen his solo career roasted by Robbie Williams.

 

 

But on Saturday Gaz was back in the limelight looking like a maths teacher playing Take That's hits for a celebrity audience.

 

 

Clearly excited, the lads got all adult with their post-watershed slot.

 

 

Mark Owen said "w****r" and there were bondage-themed trapeze artists - not the first time we've heard about swingers in Take That.

 

 

But the burlesque scene didn't last long and soon they were pulling dance moves - and hamstrings.

 

 

More incredible than the sight of Howard Donald pretending to play guitar (aye, and Sharon Osborne plays online bingo) was the fact that Take That were actually quite good.

 

 

They can sing - very nearly - in four-part harmony. They're closing in on 40 yet they can still break-dance in waistcoats without looking like dads. And, most importantly, they're not Westlife.

 

 

Of course, ITV's Audience Withs are generally cheesy affairs.

 

 

And Take That mugged it the whole way, leaving dolts like Sara Cox and Al Murray to make the real a***s of themselves in the audience.

 

 

With their surprisingly classy clobber and pleasing knack of taking the p**s out of themselves, Take That are no longer teenybop music criminals, they're the kind of guys I'd go to the pub with. Funny how Everything Changes.

 

 

Except, of course, ITV.

 

 

Not content with screwing cash out of us at a time when we know we need it for something other than Myleene Klass or Simon Cowell, they charged us to choose a Take That song too. Swines.

 

 

The point was lost on Mark Owen, who cooed: "Ooh, it's just like t'X Factor."

 

 

Actually, wee man, it's a damn sight better than that

 

good reviews all round for take that and rightly so
