    oooh interesting.It'l be weird seeing them all together again.

    I wonder If he's sing some of his solo stuff on the Take That tour?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Ugh no, he's dead weight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 92,179 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    He has a greatest hits album coming out and his last album bombed so this will help him sell a few more

    I think they are better off without him imo I prefer how they sound since they returned

    No matter what people tell you, words and ideas can change this World

    Worst kept secret in showbiz the past few months but it'll be interesting to see how it comes together. I think they could both do with this at the moment. Robbie and his ever falling record sales and the band with all their scandals lately. Looking forward to seeing how it works out though.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,397 ✭✭✭✭Degsy


    The bug-eyed tool's american dream is in ruins and his crappy albums are no longer shifting so he's back to his old band to make a few bob...what a surprise.

    Maybe if he hadnt said this at a press conferance he might still have a "career"...nothing like a spot of boasting to piss off the public.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,919 ✭✭✭ziggy23


    I'm delighted :D:D

    It'll be like being 11 again....:o

    Robbie once had a very successful solo career and happily spewed venom about his former group Take That, especially Gary. Then Robbie's career went down the toilet, while the That reformed and became mega-sellers again, while Robbie slipped further and further off the radar.

    Then Robbie rejoined Take That.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,058 ✭✭✭Shelga


    I think people forget how phenomenonally successful Robbie has been in his own right. He has sold 55 MILLION albums worldwide; none of the others will ever have a solo career anywhere near that level. They've sold maybe 5 million albums in the last 5 years, whereas Robbie Williams is one of the most popular solo artists to come out of Britain.

    So yeah, he's probably doing it in part to raise his profile a bit, but he's had enough success not to be forgotten anytime soon. And he has more personality than the other 4 combined! :pac:

    http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/news/a244929/take-that-to-earn-millions-from-reunion.html
    Take That will reportedly earn £75 million following Robbie Williams's return to the group.

    Williams, who left the band in 1995, confirmed yesterday that he will rejoin them for an album and arena tour.

    According to The Sun, each member of Take That stands to make £15 million from the deal, including record sales, royalties, endorsements and concert tickets.

    A source told the newspaper: "Robbie has some commitments with Live Nation and a couple of appearances with Gary for the new single lined up.

    "But after that, Take That's creative tour team will be working on the biggest show they have ever put on. Kim Gavin, who has worked with Take That on all their spectacular tours, is already briefed and ready to start coming up with amazing ideas."

    Yesterday, Williams unveiled the tracklist and artwork for his retrospective LP In And Out Of Conciousness - The Greatest Hits 1990-2010.

    The album will feature a duet with Take That frontman Gary Barlow, called 'Shame'.

    I think Gary is having the last laugh, like I always knew he would :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,905 ✭✭✭✭Handsome Bob


    I read in The Mirror yesterday that the live tour will consist of Robbie opening the show with his own material, then Take That as a 4 piece, then Robbie joins them on stage for the final few songs.

    I also read that this is only a one year deal.

    So basically, Robbie is only using TT as one last hope to keep his career from going into the abyss. Should it be successful for him, he'll just **** off again.

    If Robbie wanted to do he could do a sell-out tour of the UK+Ireland easily. I dont think this is about him making a comeback.
    I think he genuinely wants to go on tour with the guys

    Amen to that brother,I just cannot stand this chancer,can't stand his stupid smug face.
    Just do the right thing,realise that people are no longer interested in you and the sh*te "music" you make,just go away and spend the money you've somehow managed to make,leave us alone,and while you're at it,take the other four with you

    Ah here Degsy,how can you say that about Robbie Williams.

    Oh hang on,I thought you meant the Robbie Williams who isn't a smug,arrogant,talentless chancer who bragged about the size of the record deal he signed a few years ago.......

    This fella,yeah,I could punch all day,only to stop for toilet breaks ..:D

    The only reason that gobdaw was successful was he had a great songwriting partner in Guy Chambers and then shat on the guggies by trying to lock him into an exclusive deal. Bet Chambers is glad he told him where to get off now.

    Will he fill Slane again? noooooo.
    Will he fill Knebworth again? noooooo.
    Only if he slithers back to Take That - the band he vilified for feckin years.

    I'm only sorry Gary Barlow is such a soft touch.

    Well not really, although have to say during the late 90's he was very dignified despite all that happened,(how he remained so dignified I'll never know) also you have to remember that before Take That reformed Gary was doing very nicely having secured a writing contract with Sony and writing and working for other artists after moving to the States where he didn't have all the negative press.

    Obviously since the hugely successful reform with Take That, Gary has gone from strength to strength in the music industry with Take That really being just a side project,(this is Take Thats last contracted album) he is a hugely sought after songwriter, has been given his own record label (Future Records) has successfully launched the classical singer Camilla Kerslake.

    Williams who is releasing his greatest hits album later this year, it will be a big seller especially with him getting back with Take That, and who has written a couple of tracks on his album, yes thats right Gary Barlow ;) one track which will be released as a single, more royalties for Gary ;)

    I think its good for Robbie cos he's been off the scene for a while but its not good for TT, they're an established foursome now and have been sucessfull like that for a couple of years. They don't need Robbie but Robbie needs them :rolleyes: Still like him though :pac:
