Thanks to RW Rewind for this post & reminding us of this great album

Yes, it was a huge period! Very important album for Robbie. Only big hits on it, perfect work by him and Guy and it's very difficult to replicate since then!

On this day in pop: Robbie Willi...

Robbie's finest album came roaring into existence as the new millenium rolled around - dropping in the greatest summer of pop music since 1989. After the colossal success of his debut album and follow up, I've Been Expecting You, all eyes were on Robbie - who'd been busy racking up millions of ticket sales in the two year gap between album two and three. The sound of the album moved Robbie away from the Britpop era of album two and saw him embrace the pop renaissance of the 2000s. He, of course, did it in his own way, extrapolating influences from rap, hip hop, clubs and stadium bound anthems that were becoming his signature sound. He even teamed up with pop royalty, Kylie Minogue (after writing some songs for her Light Years album). The golden boy of pop reigned supreme (amour) once more - spawning six singles, another number one album chart smash and selling 2.5m copies on this side of the pond alone. Sing when you're winning? Belting it from the rafters...

• Rock DJ (July 2000, #1) ~ the absolute brazen audacity of coming back with such a bonkers song and video was trademark Robbie. Partly all about just enjoying the music, partly a celebration of his role in that, Rock DJ was somewhat cocky spoken word exercise (in the verses), a healthy dollop of addictive beats, and one big f*** off refrain that dominated dancefloors all the live long summer. It encapsulated the carefree sound that Robbie did so well - and joined similar "just let yourself go" anthems that topped the charts that season from Kylie (Spinning Around) and Madonna (Music). It was everywhere - each time I turned on the radio or popped on the television, this song was blaring out (sometimes with that flesh stripping video accompanying it). No wonder it soared to number one, but lingered too - spending five weeks in the top ten, 24 on the overall UK chart countdown and sold over one million copies. Not too shabby.
