November 12, 200618 yr im special like that :smoke: :P :lol: But we all know that Anastacia is a million times better then Dido :smoke: :P
November 12, 200618 yr Do your research first, Anastacia DOES NOT WANT TO BE SUCESSFULL IN THE USA She was going to release her 3rd album and left outside alone in the USA to try and crack it, and 5 days before her appearance on opera she cancelled everything, Anastacia isn't greedy ;) Dido is superior? Superior in what? BOREDOM? Yes. Anastacia has something that only dido could dream of, a good voice that dosn't send people to sleep Of course Anastacia doesn´t WANT to be sucessful in America... She, Robbie, Westlife, and all other who tried and FAILED MISERABLY there always use that excuse. I wonder if Opera means Oprah, cause if it is, then it´s no wonder why her apperence got cancelled, because they only put high profile artists there. Dido is superior to her in MUSIC, she doesn´t make bad taste pop music for teenagers. She has her own style, not the style of her producers, get over it.
November 12, 200618 yr :lol: Dido is bland and BORING. Anastacia may have a love or hate voice, but she can blow dido back to where she came from -_- Anastacia has a strong voice, but the fact is you can´t listen to it for more then 10 minutes before you get SICK of it, and her songs are always repetitive $h!t with easy teenage chorus. She will never have the worldwide relevance like Dido.

Well, I don't know about Anastatia but Robbie seriously does'nt :lol: I mean out of his 10 year solo carear is has spent a total of something like 8 weeks promoting there, The British press make out as if he tried really hard but failed which is far from the case. He has sold nearly a million albums there with hardly any promo. ^_^
November 12, 200618 yr :lol: But we all know that Anastacia is a million times better then Dido :smoke: :P Of course Anastacia´s albums are better to stuck in the shelves, and Dido´s are to fly from there to consumers house. I bought Ana´s 1st album, it was on sale... Great 2 singles... Not That Kind and I´m Outta Love... The album had 2 other decent tracks IMO, Cowboys and Kisses and Who´s Gonna Stop The Rain... the rest: fillers, $h!t, and more fillers. A great voice, but unfortunately lacks songwriting talent and has to depend heavily on producers. It makes me laugh when an Anastacia fan says Dido is boring, when Ana had songs like "I Ask Of You" which was total Whitney Houston-ish c**p, that even my 70 years old gramma would find incredibly boring. I liked other Anastacia songs later... Sick & Tired was great... But Left Outside Alone was WAY to repetitive and comercial c**p, that gets anoyng after 5 listens. I wouldn´t buy her albums anymore - rather download the good songs and not pay for the fillers.

He has sold nearly a million album there with hardly any promo. ^_^ Ah, don´t kid me, of course he wants. It´just that he knows it´s useless to waste time there to achieve nothing, when he can have his time better used in Europe or Oceania. 8 weeks was more then enough for James Blunt to become a fever over there. Robbie tried 2 times: with Angels he nearly had a hit, but it didn´t go too far. Then Escapology was a total flop. No need to spend more time there, since that would mean less promo and tours for Europe, and less money for him and his label. I remember when Robbie went to America to release Escapology and he desperately asked for everyone on his show to call radio stations and insist for them to play his songs. Plus, Take That had a moderate hit there (# 8, I think) and that wasn´t enough for them to be recognized. Also remember the news on the press that Christina Aguilera turned down a duet with Robbie - he wanted a duet with her to crack America. He´s smart and he knows his time is better used in Europe, but that doesn´t mean he never wanted to be sucessful in USA.

He´s smart and he knows his time is better used in Europe, but that doesn´t mean he never wanted to be sucessful in USA. Well that's your opinion but Robbie has never spent more than a few weeks at a time promoting there, James Blunt broke the states within a couple of months. Robbie has never had a proper go at breaking the states in reality no matter how you look at it or how the ignorant British press make out. On his first attemt at cracking the states he released 'The Ego Has Landed' which was quite succesful. It was said to have sold 596,000 a while back and would've definatly passed 600,000 by now. But then he thought he'd leave it till another time and moved on. Then tried again with Escapology, which he did some promo for and yes it did flop. It has'nt even sold 200k in the US to date, the same goes for Sing When You're Winning. Both IC and Rudebox made the top 10 on the US I-tunes and also #7 in Canadian itunes so he clearly has a fanbase over there. Rudebox is also #1 on the US Cd-wow, which I am shocked at myself :huh: Escapology went platinum in Canada apperently, so I have no idea why he did'nt tour over there :wacko: Oh and not in a million years would Robbie have asked Xtina to do a duet. That would've just been the Sun or Mirror making up $h!te which I certainly would'nt beleive if I were you. But honestly, although deep down, he probebly likes the idea of being huge over there, cause it would mean his albums would sell 10 million + but I honestly believe that he preferes being relatively unknow there simply because he is'nt constantly hassled by the press which is exactly why he lives in L.A.

I wonder if Opera means Oprah, cause if it is, then it´s no wonder why her apperence got cancelled, because they only put high profile artists there. When Anastacia's RECORD COMPANY made the desicion that she was going to crack america, she was lined up on 5 of america's biggest tv shows. 5 Days before her first tv show appearance, Oprah, Anastacia CANCELLED IT and her manager walked out on her because anastacia herself didn't want to try and crack america, it was her manager who did. So it wasnt the show that cancelled Anastacia :rolleyes: Anastacia has a strong voice, but the fact is you can´t listen to it for more then 10 minutes before you get SICK of it, and her songs are always repetitive $h!t with easy teenage chorus. She will never have the worldwide relevance like Dido. I could listen to Anastacia for hours, and wtf?! Teenage $h!t :lol: Thats really lame and her songs arn't repetitive, her style has changed throughout her years in the buisness, Dido is still has boring as ever though Of course Anastacia´s albums are better to stuck in the shelves, and Dido´s are to fly from there to consumers house. I bought Ana´s 1st album, it was on sale... Great 2 singles... Not That Kind and I´m Outta Love...

I wouldn´t buy her albums anymore - rather download the good songs and not pay for the fillers. Not That Kind was released in 2000, and what was going on at the time? Pop, Fillers, Dance songs etc. I can only name about 5/6 filler songs on the album. I Ask Of You, it's not Whitney Houston c**p, it's just because Anastacia has power in her voice. Left Outside Alone is a brilliant track, just overplayed, maybe thats why you are annoyed, and whats wrong with it being commercial, thats a good thing. Lack of Songwriting Talent? You obviously havn't listened to her 3rd album, it's a brilliant album, vocally and lyricly.
November 14, 200618 yr Of course her 3rd album has much songwriting talent *cough* Glen Ballard *cough*. To me 5/6 fillers in one album is already TOO MUCH! I am happy for her getting what she wants as not being sucessful in USA. (Although I do think it would be great if she was sucessful there cause she is better then usual american urban music). As for Robbie, nobody who likes him has the right to call any other artist boring... he built his career of bland ballads and came from a boyband that was almost like Weslife. I´de rather listen to good Dido music then boring entertainers.

I´de rather listen to good Dido music then boring entertainers. Why, when we were having a discussion about Robbie breaking the US have you all of a sudden resorted to slagging him off for no good reason? :wacko: And if you are going to slag him off, at least do it in a constructive way. Anyone who would call him boring clearly have'nt heard his latest album. It is anything but boring. Also all his previous albums have contained various different types of songs, from rock to up-tempo pop to ballads and now rap and electro pop. So to call him boring while a Dido album just all sounds the same is beyond me. And to say he has made a carear of bland ballads is laughable to say the least considering 20 out of his 27 singles are'nt even ballads :rolleyes: It's like you are decribing a totally different person :wacko: Oh and another thing which I find ridiculous is saying TT were like Westlife :lol: Have you not seen any clips of TT performing :unsure: Their stage shows were anything but boring. I am certainly by no means a TT fan but everyone knows that they are the complete opposite type of boyband to Westlife. Westlife just sit on stools whilst churing out endless bland covers of old ballads, whilst TT actually wrote their songs which are classic pop songs, and certainly were'nt all ballads.They also put on amazing performances with great dancing etc. Not sure that they will be like now though. ;)
November 14, 200618 yr Just because someone dances and acts sexy doesn´t make them less bland. This has gone on a too subjective way. If people can slag the artists I like, then I can do it too. You were jealous because Dido had sucess in USA and sells more then Westlife/Anastacia, and I was jealous because Robbie/Westlife release 1 album every year and Dido comes out very 2 centuries just to have the # 1 album of the year.
November 14, 200618 yr Robbie is boring? From A Dido fan? That takes the prize as the most ridiculous comment I've ever read on Buzzjack. Dido is blandness personified. Music wise, voice wise, personality wise. But blandness really seems to sell in the Music World these days. Guess that says as much about us as listeners as it does about the artists themselves. If David Bowie was starting out today he'd have no chance. :(

I am not jelous of Dido, BELIEVE ME. :lol: I am glad she has had success in the US, as I am glad James Blunt and other Brits have done the same cause I am tried of R'n'B rubbish. But I don't like these acts music because it's bland and samely. I go to buy albums of artists due to the quality and divercity of their music, NOT because of their sales -_-
November 14, 200618 yr It would be better that I not read posts of Janet Jackson´s Nipple... :angry: Just make me feel mad. <_<

November 14, 200618 yr Robbie is boring? From A Dido fan? That takes the prize as the most ridiculous comment I've ever read on Buzzjack. And you get the award for the most brainwashed person with no personality. Dido is blandness personified. Music wise, voice wise, personality wise. I am a fan and I know nothing about her personality to say she has bland personality. You seem to know more about her private life then me. Or maybe this was something that you just said out of your empty brain without thinking much about it, ya? No, someone who wastes enough time of his life to make 8 thousand posts on a Robbie Williams forum certainly can´t teach me about blandness, let alone quality in music, lol.
November 14, 200618 yr To anyone sayng that Dido is bland, have you ever thought about the possibility that she doesn´t WANT to be like Britney or Kylie, lol, just like Robbie and Anastacia don´t WANT to be sucessful in America, and Westlife don´t WANT to write songs, or Michael Jackson doesn´t WANT to be black??? It´s all about what you want.
November 14, 200618 yr :lol: Brilliant reply. With a CD collection of over 1,000 albums and having been buying music (all sorts of, including Dido) for the past 35 years I don't think anyone could call me brainwashed music wise. But I guess I have no personality so I bow to your opinion of me. Oh and by the way, you were the one who brought Robbie into this. You were the one who started slagging him off. Disheth out and receiveth back as they say. Oh and I'm female. Oh and I'm also the Mod of the Robbie Forum so it would be kind of strange if I didn't spend most of my time in there. Ya? :) ( Oh and as for my empty brain, I have an Honours Degree in Politics and English. How about you? Ya?)

What a truely pathetic creature you are. You can't back up your pathetic arguement so you have to resort to insulting someone personally. :rolleyes: Grow the hell up!
