How well do we think 'Speak Without Words' would have done and a solo album?

 

I didn't know he had special permission to film his music video in Cuba.

 

I could see him doing as well as Mark's first solo album and single. Having a Latin sound was definitely different to any of the other solo careers.

 

Gregg Masuak video director: "I'd done an amazing video for Howard in Cuba a while back which I should have kept the footage to, because we shot in places no one would be allowed to shoot in again, with visuals that were so amazing it was crazy.

Unfortunately a clash between management and the record company made his deal collapse, and a great album never saw the light of day."

It's a good song and sounded perfectly for that period.

It sounds like Eros, Ricky, less George in 00s, so people could like the song then.

 

I remember that in the beginning of 00s i was waited for Bowie's Boy album.

And 15+ years since it has been released finally.

So who knows... Maybe one day.

Probably the same fate as Gary and Mark. Initial success and then flop.

The media treated them badly, Robbie was the only star.
