He has great showmanship but can't sing a note :lol:

Again, I'm not a fan but I don't really know how you can say he can't sing :P His songs just aren't to my taste (although Love My Life is a tune)

Popular Days

Robbie always relied on showmanship over talent,he is an average singer but knows how to entertain. In his peak he also knew who to play the media game. Take Leona Lewis on the other hand, bundles of talent but no entertainment value or star presence. It is hard to say which the general public seem to go for more. Rihanna, i do not understand her huge success as she falls short on both of the above in my opinion.
Bit harsh to call Robbie talentless. He's a bit ropey vocally these days but he used to be much better, and is a great showman. He also has a big collection of classic songs, most of which he co-wrote.

I think that's the most accurate and succinct post on the whole subject actually.

Robbie was a considerably better live vocalist a decade or so back, but to say he's talentless is just moronic.

 

And let's face it, he doesn't really need to be a great vocalist anymore, 90% of the time the crowd sing his tracks for him.

:down: 40. Fifth Harmony - Down

 

Loooool flop

 

Surely they will call it a day soon or Syco will pull the support - neither album has been a runaway success and they have sporadic single success (Huge hit followed up by a few floppy singles).

I really thought Ari was going to be out front by now - I guess the fact OLY sold about 50k after the Manchester attacks harmed It a bit also I don't think it's been well publicized outside of iTunes that proceeds go to charity.

Definitely, the fact it wasn't performed right at the end and as you say there's been no mention of it being a charity single anywhere Bar iTunes.

 

I guess Ariana didn't want to promote it and get people to download it as the night was about remembering the victims above anything else.

Well Ari IS out front right now, by miles :P it's had a massive impact. Let's not forget that so many people will already own the song, either from its original release or the My Everything album. It's doing remarkably well.

5H is a Syco act in name only. All their success is due to the patience and effort of LA Reid at Epic. Now that he is gone from the company it remains to be seen if they remain a priority.

:up: 10. Miley Cyrus - Malibu

 

Looking set to climb to #4 soon.

 

:down: 42. Fifth Harmony - Down

 

Yay for Miley! :wub:

 

Fourth Harmony really are plummeting down the iTunes chart...

The fact Robbie has a million selling, popular swing album tells me that he can indeed sing. Not many people can pull off a swing album without having a good voice, imo.

 

Oh no at Fifth Harmony. </3 I did think they would be doing better at this stage, BUT it's far too early to label it as a flop in this day and age, so we shall have to wait and see!

Why is the Vengaboys 'Boom Boom Boom Boom' at #79? :unsure:

There's a viral video of someone driving round late at night blasting it in their car and everyone in the street starts dancing.

Oh cool, I thought it was some sick joke at first.
