7 years ago he had a xmas number 1, now he spends his time in pubs talking to people about UFOs, what a fall from grace, he had it all after Angels and now he wants in Take That, never like the guy but he made his bed and he has to lie in it. I personally think Take That are refreshing.

/me is watching the Xmas number 1s in 4 Music

He had a good song writer back then.
Hardly a fall from grace, he isnt bringing out music that is flopping

I don't think there is a single Robbie single I don't like. They are all great. I really like Supreme.

C'mon he moved from the UK to the USA to get rid of the press and pap, it worked, whats he going to do once he starts getting in the papers because he is in England?

His last album was a flop.

He's a nob. With a fake voice and toss songs.

Wrong. His songs are not 'toss' which is reflected in his huge popularity.

Let Love Be Your Energy is probably one of my most fav songs ever...

and im a proper Metal head.

Sounds like a damn fine life to me :confused:

I don't see how you can say fake voice?

I actually quite like Robbie Williams, while I really dislike his latest album, some of his other songs are extremely well written, and his voice is rather impressive, especially on the album "Swing When You Are Winning" which is a tribute to some of the older music such as Frank Sinatra.

I was "dragged" along to a Robbie Williams concert back in 2006 (wife bought Golden Circle tickets for MK Bowl).
I must say that I really enjoyed the evening - the guy certainly put on a good performance.

I certainly wouldn't say there has been a fall from grace, he seems as popular as ever and that is without a current album.

Utter rubbish imo.

He recently did the vocals for a Sander van Doorn track, it was terrible...

Robbie has always claimed that he can't sing or dance and doesn't understand how he got to where he is.
He says that he tries to be cool on stage but always turns out to be Norman Wisdom.
However he is a fantastic live performer, always puts 100% into a show and nobody goes home unsatisfied.
The record company were getting rid of him when somebody decided to release the slow no hoper song Angels and the rest is history.
I like Robbie but I think he's losing it with his Ufology escapades and he claims his tattoo's help him talk to aliens.

If I had as much cash as him I think I'd rather spend my time in pubs talking about UFO's as well. TBH I'd probably have been on the board at Port vale now though along with my lovely wife Andrea Corr.

I think he's great. A natural performer.

His best asset for sure.

While I'm not a fan of his myself he certainly hasn't fallen from grace he just hasn't done anything for a while, I bet if he announced a new tour the tickets would sell in minutes.
