Robbie Talks To Music Week
14 Sep 2012
The front cover of the latest edition of Music Week features a design you should be pretty familiar with by now. Taking up the entire front page of the trade mag is the gold head that forms the basis of the artwork for Robbie's forthcoming album, Take The Crown!
Delve in and there's also a lengthy interview with Robbie in which he discusses the album, his reunion with Take That, impending fatherhood and just about everything else you could think to fit in five pages..!

What a busy week you have had, hope tonights gig goes as well as the rest seem to have done. I got caught up in the had tickets then didnt have tickets problem but I realise not everyone could be lucky, i'm glad everyone has had such a good time. Don't know if you will remember or if you will even read this but i'm the daft one you tried to say hi to on the phone when you were in House of Fraser in Glasgow. Everyone tries to sound sympathetic when I tell them but I think all think its funny, I'm sure other friendlies will understand how gutted I still am 4 days on. I hope your wee girl arrives soon, I am so thrilled for you and Ayda, I'm sure the best days of your life aren't far away. Wishing you well, by the way I am loving Candy can't wait for the album xx
CIAO ROBERTO, THIS IS MY NEW TATTOO, I HOPE YOU LIKE IT, TOO..... I LOVE IT!!!! WISH YOU GOOD LUCK FOR YOUR LAST GIG AT SOUTH END TONIGHT. SHOW THEM ALL, WHAT IS IN YOU........ I'M SAD NOT TO BE THERE, BUT IN MY HEART IT'S LIKE I'LL BE THERE....SO FEEL MY ENERGY AND STRENGTH FOR YOU, THEN....!!!! I'M WITH YOU!!! I'VE JUST COOKED PASTA CAUSE I WAS SO HUNGRY..... I'M GOING AND TRY TO HAVE A SLEEP NOW, I'M SO TIRED ROB.... BACI TATIANA
Enjoy your last Gig at South End tonight Rob... Will be thinking of you and everyone going!... Sounds like it has been an Amazing show to see. Im So happy for everyone who got to share it with you and im so lucky to have met so many friends who have also shared their special moments with me via the T'internet!... Being able to hear the stories, see the photos and feel the happiness youve given to many Friendlies over this past week has made me feel so much a part of it all with out even being there. . Cant wait for the next announcement for the shows to come :-))) (i'm presuming there will be more!) Then i'll book that ticket and be on my merry way across the skies!. Lots and Lots of Love and kisses xxxx
Hi guys I have just seem some replies, thank you jo thats so sweet of you hun, and yes BB mandalay if i got close I would definitely give love from the friendlies!

P.s. Wonder loves Elmo too lol.. much love to you all big hugg for Ayda! xxxxx
Hey Rob, thanks for making my trip to Dublin so special. You really are in top form. I was so happy I finally got to hear Karma Killer live, it really rocked the house. Ended up seeing Lady GaGa last night thanks to a really nice security guard at your gig, she is a super talented girl, Madonna and Brittney must hate her lol. Cannot wait for your World Tour next year, it will be so special. Thinking of you, Ayda and soon to arrive baby Williams. Take care xxx
Rob .. been listening to Roy Orbison's song " In Dreams " .. it's a great track .. there's some video's from his Black & White Nights DVD on there too .. check them out .. I spotted Bruce Springsteen and Elvis Costello on guitar in the " In Dreams " video from Black & White Nights . If I could dedicate one song to you it would be that one " In Dreams " !

How you doing Robbie?!....hope your enjoying the tour your doing. Just want to say the new song "Candy" is not what I expected, however its entertaining and decent enough I suppose, heak musics so horrible now, anything by you is good. I'm not sure if it was what I was expecting though, I was actually expecting something more in the line of Life thru the lens, The ego has landed or Reality killed the video star - but I haven't heard the album yet, but I guess the single is a sign of it. Actually I didn't like you very much for a while, mainly cause of the way your music was perceived and the image you were given, however your 2009 album is what got me into your music, in fact I think that album is - well it just goes to show how ridiculous the music industry is now- because it was NOTICEABLE that, that record basically got no airplay that I heard anyway, I noticed the radio ignored it alot, which was a shame cause I thought it was one of the best records you've done. However, I'm a bit worried about your voice, getting older as you are I think you should quit smoking at least if your touring. I know it doesn't sound very rocknroll, but it would be a good idea cause I'd like to hear you sing and develop as a singer as you sounded on the first tour. I actually have a great idea if you want to check out, www.nutrimedical.com they have "Advanced" nutricuticals for...anyone who wants too stay healthy. Whatever you do, don't let a doctor prescribe you with pharmacy pills, they're toxic and will kill you. Also if you become a customer at nutrimedical you get free doctors consults and advice. All smokers who are singers get worse, look at Liam Gallagher, he sounds horrible now compared to what he used too, no offence to Liam, I think he's a funny guy and a great singer.....but on his worst days, he makes me cringe. Good Luck Robbie! Jonathan NZ
I enjoyed the gig last night, I'm so glad you put the oldies on the set list and nothing from the two albums after Escapology. Those two albums were absolutely shite! The new song is an improvement anyway, it's like as though you are gradually slipping back into the style of the first three albums. The album track you played was great, I can't remember the name of it. If there's more of that i'll be pleased. All in all, I had a great time, fantastic performance! I say less props and more cheap gigs. The props will only take away from your performance. Your "daddy dancing" is enough....awh bless ;)

Hey guys, would anyone out there have a copy of when Robbie spoke to the couple in the crowd for their 10th wedding anniversary in the o2 in Dublin on 14/th sept? We didn't get it on camera and it would mean so much for us to get a copy. Hoping someone out there can help us.....thanks in advance ;-)
Iv put my comments under " Watch Candy Now...." blog. A fantastic night with you and the gang at the O2 last nite. You came. We saw, You conquered! Fab fab fab nite. Thank you so so much Rob. Please come back soon as you can. Best of luck for Baby's arrival....can't put into words how amazing that is going to be, but just emerse yourself in it, enjoy every second. Hope to see you back here soon. Xxx
You look so worried in the pic backstage at Brown Thomas doing a quick phone. I hope everything's ok!!!!!!! Some people say that I'm crazy that I write you, but that's not fair, and makes me sad and angry! I don't say them what they have to do and not, and I do what I want!!!! Rob I don't write you because you are the star "Robbie Williams", I write you because I like you so much as a person "Rob Williams"!!!! take care hope to meet you soon again one day...................!!!
I'll buy a copy tomorrow only because I'm so nosey about the new album ! : ) that's if my little legs can take me to the shop .. they are ticking like an old cortina at the moment after all the jumping & standing tonight at the gig in Dubs : ) xxxx
Robbie. Thank you so much for the fantastic show you put on in Dublin tonight. It was amazing. I Loved it!!! So good to see you back doing what you do best. Loved the trip down memory lane with all the old songs. Love the 2 new songs too. Please dont leave it so long before you come back again. Good luck with your new baby girl xxxxx
Hi Rob, thank you so much for such a smashing show tonight. I enjoyed you so much, You were on top form and the band too. I've seen you at every gig since your first at the Olympia in Dublin in 1997. Probably the closest physically I have been beside you to see you perform all your hits .. it makes such a difference to be at an intimate gig which gives you the opportunity to really listen to and sing along with all the songs. It was a real trip down memory lane and every song sounded like it had been written yesterday . Hot Fudge was one of my highlights .. all though every song was fab, Candy was great live and your performance of Losers was sheer class ! in the vain of The Boss, Springsteen. I loved it. I think it should be a single ! I can't wait to hear the rest of the new album !! Thanks for always coming home to Dublin ! I've been a fan for the last 22 years. May you long continue to write and perform. You are up there with all the legends ! I'm sure Take The Crown will be another Number 1 album ! Will love & support you always ... " And through it all " !!!! Love ya a whole heap. Safe home Rob. See you again soon. Yvonne ( Lizzie ) xxxxxx PS: Wishing you & Ayda all the best with your new little arrival. You will make such a great Father.. she's gonna be one lucky little girl !! God bless you all xxxxxxxx
Rob, Great Concert tonight in Dublin. ... You still got it from seeing you in the olympia in dublin in the early years to tonight and many more in between!!!!! Hope you made it home safely tonight. Love the new song, Candy is so catchy. Loved the oldies and Escapology songs..........No Intensive Care Tracks??????......and my random favourite........I will talk and hollywood will listen!!!!!!!! But if you were to fit everything in you would be singing for a week!!!..xxx When your not too busy changing nappies a quick blog every now and then would be gratefully appreciated!!! .....Keep us all updated!!!!!.....xxxxx Good luck with your new journey personally and professionally!!!xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Dear Robbie Right now I do not like the song, Candy, so good, but it will come, I'm sure! :) I look forward to the new CD:) To me, you're a great singer, entertainer and designer, and I think as an individual you are still in spite your success on the ground, which I like about you. Continued success and I wish you a lot of time with your family and your baby. Best regards from Switzerland
