Found this link on purerobbie http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2nqS7dTJLM Rob reading out his poem. It's not new (taken off the Angels dvd) but I find it very suitable just now that a lot of people and stupid journalists are giving him a bad time, slagging him off. :angry: I got a bit teary watching this... :cry: :heart:

Lovelight has dropped in the UK airplay charts this week from 8 to 12. :cry: That's not good, it's meant to be going up as the relase date is getting closer, not going down :angry: Aren't there a few people from the UK who would fancy requesting it on the radio...? :rolleyes:

So, are we happy with no. 2 in the UK this week ? :unsure: I guess we have to be. :cry: :lol: Any big albums out this week that will make the Top 3 for sure ? I'm hoping that Rudebox can hold the position for another week. It should get inreasingly difficult to stay in the top 3 or even top 5 as there are loads of big albums out soon, like George Michael, Oasis, TT, ... Fingers crossed Rudebox won't drop like a stone with that competition :puke2:

You could be right there. RW fans are just too old :cry: :lol: But honestly, I think Rob's struggling in the singles charts has to do, at least in some respect, with the new download regulations. So, JT is only one place ahead of Rob, I expected worse. :huh: I have long given up hope that Lovelight could get to no. 1, fingers crossed it will make it into the top 5. Not even that seems certain to me these days :unsure: And whatever will be no. 1 in that week, just hope it won't be JT (although I'm pretty sure he will chart higher than Rob -_- ).

Found this on yahoo uk news: United pips Williams to fans title Sunday November 5, 10:06 AM Manchester United have pipped Robbie Williams for the title of having the biggest fan base in Britain. Over a fifth of all football addicts follow the Sir Alex Ferguson-led side, according to a poll by hotel company Travelodge. The fan table had Liverpool football club in third place, with Arsenal fourth, author JK Rowling fifth and U2 sixth. Other soccer clubs to make it into the top 20 were Tottenham Hotspur (eighth), Aston Villa (12th), Chelsea (16th) and Bolton Wanderers (20th). So, it seems there is still a fanbase left and it's pretty big as well. But when you look at the latest sales figures, a lot of them don't buy singles/albums anymore. :cry: Must be RW fans in the closet or something. People, please come out again ! :rolleyes:

jups, do we really want to know...? I bet he's in the Top 10 already, if not top 5. <_< If Lovelight doesn't chart next weekend on downloads only its chances of becoming top 5 the following week are pretty bad, right...? I'm defenitely not an expert on the UK charts, but that's the impression I've got lately, correct me if I'm wrong there. :unsure:

Probably that was made to tease us. I bet they were laughing their heads off, going something like "Those silly RW fans are voting again and again - although JT is going to get this award anyway" :puke2: :arrr:

Geez, I saw that pic but I didn't notice Rob in the background. :wacko: Guess Paris scared me off immediately and I quickly closed the window again. :huh: :lol: Someone on TRWS posted what this blonde guy said in his blog, he's really nice about Rob: The event was full of fun peeps and I was very lucky to meet some incredible people. As I mentioned, meeting Mary Lynn Rajskub was my thrill for the night but I also was quite excited to get to meet Robbie Williams (!!!), Rodrigo Santoro (the new hottie on Lost) and Miss Xtina Aguilera herself. I never thought I'd ever get to have a conversation with Robbie Williams but last night it actually happened. He was very cool, very friendly and was really great to me.

D'you know what... There was a link to a third pic that didn't have Rob in it but the blonde guy with... Paris Hilton ! :o So she can't have been too far away from Rob, what a scary thought. :cry: :puke2: Compared to her I'm glad it's only Lindsay who's on the pic with Rob. -_- Anyway, he looks lovely. :heart:

It seems Rob is going out quite a lot in LA these days, good for him. Probably looking for Mrs Williams :rolleyes: And I have to say I prefer this outfit to the Halloween one :lol: (with thanks to rw italy) November 2, 2006 - Hollywood Palladium Hollywood, California United States http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f13/may1...006100042AM.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f13/may1...006100023AM.jpg Isn't he looking very yummy ? :wub: And doesn't the girl look like Lindsay Lohan, but I could be terribly wrong there... :unsure:

Never tuned in once for the show and it turned out exactly as I knew it would. An evening of MTV crawling up the backside of the US stars, first and foremost JT of course. Without having seen it it still makes me :puke2: :puke2: :puke2:

As I said, it surprised me too, didn't think Justin was the kind of person to make that sort of comment, but who knows. I know one has to be careful, I mean how many times did we read stuff about Rob which looked all serious in print but when you could hear him say it you knew he was only having a laugh. :unsure:

Timberwolf (as jups liks to call him ^_^ ), now it's war ! :arrr: :lol: JT was at a press conference in Dubai and when it was poined out to him that Rob had been there recently, he went "I'm way better than him". :o I hope he was being tongue-in-cheek. I mean, I'm certainly not a fan of his, but until now I've thought that he wasn't the type to go around telling journalists he is better than other artists. But maybe he's got to the point now where he is getting a bit too big for his own shoes <_< To think that Rob was so nice about him when he was interviewed ... :puke2:

I'm still hoping that it's only some kind of project and they're going to put that video up on rw.com - yeah, I know the "is going to be available in blabla formats" - bit doesn't fit in with my theory :cry: I guess I could somehow cope with Bongo being a single if at least it had a video with a gorgeous Robster in it. But the description from hat one article that was posted on the weekend article didn't sound as if Rob was in there at all, so how can this be any good...? :puke2:

from yahoo news: Robbie to team up with ABBA ? Robbie Williams is planning a collaboration with pop superstars Abba. The former Take That star has held secret talks with Anni-Frid Lyngstad, a member of the Swedish band. The 60-year-old reveals, "Robbie and I talked about doing an Abba hit together. "He has not yet come back to me on that one." Fans of the 1970s group hope Williams will reunite them, 23 years after the four-piece split. A source says, "Maybe he could be the one to get them together again. It would be a sensational coup." I think the original info is from the Daily Star, so probably a lot of talk with not much behind it. -_- Personally, I wouldn't mind a collaboration with ABBA - and if Rob really could help to bring them together a lot of people would be kissing his feet. :D

Scotty, I kinda knew you knew already. :rolleyes: I wasn't seriously hoping for a 2nd week at no. 1 anyway and personally I don't care too much who it is tht knocks him ff the top. I'm trying to see the positives: Apparently Rudebox is still ahead of My Chemical Romance and to be honest I was a bit afraid they would take over in the 2nd week as they seem to be much hyped now. So it's good to know Rob can still see them off.

Yes, Twinkle, my post was about the UK charts.

Em, not sure whether to post this as I don't want Scotty to get upset, particularly after his birthday. :cry: But I guess he'll come across it at some point, so I'll just spit it out now: Girls Aloud are set to knock Rudebox off the top of the album chart. :puke2: Apparently sales so far are 19 500 for them and 16 500 for Rob. Well, at least 3000 is not really a huge gap, is it ... ? If everyone went out to buy another copy of Rudebox, Rob could hold on to the no. 1 :rolleyes:

Best wishes from me too, Scotty although a bit late I'm afraid. :yahoo:

no. 1 in 14 countries, not bad at all.

suse, personally I'm holding my breath, they still might do that essay. As we know unfortunately sales figures aren't that great, so they can always attack him for that, despite having his 8th no. 1 album :unsure: ... vicious b****es that they are... :arrr:

Osiris, thanks for your support but I'm not the one who got a pm saying I should stop posting. or should I say not yet ? :cry: :lol:

Just found this on purerobbie: :cheer: Robbie Williams is back at number one after his latest album rocketed straight to the top of the charts. The singer's new LP 'Rudebox' has marked a change in style for the former Take That star, but his sales are still strong and he comfortably claimed the number one position.Emo rockers My Chemical Romance entered at number two with their latest record 'The Black Parade', while Meat Loaf debuted at number three with the third installment in his 'Bat Out Of Hell' series. Rod Stewart completed a quartet of new entries at the top of the chart with 'Still The Same' ahead of last week's number one - Sam's Town by The Killers - at number five. Soul star John Legend had a new entry at number 10 with 'Once Again' while The Ordinary Boys came in at number 15 with 'How To Get Everything You Ever Wanted in Ten Easy Steps'. Source: http://musicnews.virgin.net How nice is that? They have focused on the positive things only, SO good to read this.

I think we all read that, jups. But didn't we all read once that Ghosts/APTC would be a double A side release but then they decided to relase Sin Sin Sin...? Em, I think we all know how that went. -_- So, if they changed their mind I suggest they change it again, so She's Madonna is the next single. Or anything else from the album, apart from Bongo Bong. Glad Rudebox is not an option anymore, we've put that behind us. :o :lol: As I said, I won't believe anything until we get the news from an official source. Mind you, there was also a rumour that Kiss Me would be the 3rd single, so... :rolleyes:

Yeah, right. Shame on him. :lol: I'm sure we'll get an official list at rw.com soon, they like doing that, obviously- who can blame them... :D
