I wasn't into TT although I think they were a great group. My son was the beginning, he had LTAL and was constantly playing Angels, along with Always by Jon Jovi. I loved them both. I kept asking what and who was he was listening to in his room. Then he got IBEY and he played it non-stop and it was that Robbie Williams again. :D I started to cotton on. :D It wasn't until I watched Slane and realised what a talent he was live on stage singing great songs and performing them with great appeal that I had found a "star" I could believe in and support. I have been supporting him ever since. There is no-one to touch him in any category for me. :heart: I am pleased to say all my boys like Robbie, he may not be cool or particularly 'in mode' for them, and maybe they don't go admitting to it, but they have all the albums and they went to Knebworth, Live 8 and are also going to, cough, cough, Wembley, plus they also wear the 2003 'tattoo' tee shirts.

LOL Hulio if its a choice between you streaking and Robbie losing his shorts..it would be a double whammy and would probably stop the game. :o so I won't tell you who I will fix my peepers on. :D

Can anyone tell me the time difference between the UK and South Africa, so I can think about him going on stage at 9pm their time. Daft I know, but I will be willing him on. :dance:

The whole of Intensive Care :heart:

Maybe its not always a good idea to bury news topics in the News thread, if you know what I mean. I have just put a header up about the Intensive Care sales in Europe, because I thought it deserved a special recognition. :D

Just posted it up jupiter..great news isn't it. :cheer: The Billboard Global Chart was released last week which put Intensive Care at No.10 so the album is doing great and we haven't had his tour yet. :cheer: :cheer: Intensive Care hasn't come out of my CD player in my car yet. I think its a great album and I am so pleased to know that there are millions of people who are listening to it too.

It would be a bit of a shame wouldn't it for him to lose his shorts. :unsure: I mean we wouldn't know where to look would we, we'd have shut our eyes in modesty. :mellow: as IF. :lol:

And he hasn't started his tour yet Scotty..so what with Australian Mexican and South Americian sales you could be right. :cheer:

Intensive Care the biggest selling album in Europe :cheer: James Blunt and Robbie Williams' albums have gone five-times platinum, say the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI). Blunt's debut album Back to Bedlam passed the five million mark across Europe and continues to sell well. Williams also gained a fifth platinum level for European sales for his latest album Intensive Care. The Rolling Stones, Katie Melua, Zucchero and Radiohead were the other artists to win Platinum Europe Awards. Back to Bedlam propelled Blunt to stardom and earned him two Brit awards this year - best pop act and best male solo artist. The former soldier released the album in October 2004 and it has gone nine-times platinum in the UK alone, where it was the best selling album of 2005. Intensive Care is Williams' eighth studio album and was the biggest selling title in Europe last year, despite only being released in October. It has sold in 19 countries, and mirrors the success of his 2004 Greatest Hits album which also passed the five million copy mark last month. Radiohead's critically acclaimed third album OK Computer has now sold more than three million copies in Europe. The album won a Grammy for best alternative album after its 1997 release, and often tops best ever album opinion polls. Katie Melua's second album Piece By Piece equalled the European success of her debut Call Off The Search by selling more than two million copies. The 21-year-old singer-songwriter, has enjoyed widespread success since being spotted as a student in a Brits School showcase. Zucchero's Zu & Co achieved its first million sales in Europe as a whole, even though it has gone four-times platinum in his native Italy. The album features duets with Miles Davis, Sheryl Crow, Paul Young, Brian May, Sting and The Cranberries' Delores O'Riordan. The Rolling Stones album A Bigger Bang also sold its first one million copies in Europe. The September 2005 release accompanies the world tour of the same name, and is the long awaited follow-up to 1997's studio album Bridges to Babylon.
