"What a Brilliant week... How close was that?"

What a Brilliant week....The children in need gig was the most fun I've 
had in a long time....So was loose women
Such a nice vibe back stage....

And the race to number 1 in the uk?
Didn't quite do it fell short by about 1,500 ..How close was that?

I called Marvin to talk to the JLS boys and sent my congratulations.They were 
really chuffed and it made me feel good for them...
I was semi gutted for half an hour because I know how hard everyone's 
worked...from EMI to Management to all of you that supported me and 
bought the record....

Then I saw the bigger picture and realised what an amazing week it's 
been ....The album's doing amazingly well all over the world
and I'm very grateful and touched by all the support

Thankyou,thankyou thankyou......

and thankyou x

P.S I get the feeling for the most part you really dig the album..and 
That's the best part of my job right there......  ; )

by LUISA R - 23 Dec 2009 - 12:25am
yes, 14 November 2009 was a crazy day. i see you so close, where i work every day, but i'm shine and my heart beats so fast, too much emotions for me. when i think about it i still can believe that. the performance was brilliant, but i could not jump and sing like i always did because i were working. you have a nice band, they were all so nice with me, i did my best. i hope it could happen again. maybe next time i'll be more strong. i'll always be there, your music keep on being the soundtrack of my life. see you next time robert.

OK, let's be honest.... you

by AmandaHLewis - 7 Dec 2009 - 1:35pm
OK, let's be honest.... you could have farted into the mike, slapped in on a disc, and we all here would have snapped it up and loved it to pieces anyway! But this album goes so much deeper than I expected when I first listened to it - it isn't the huge, punchy album Intensive Care was.... maybe that's what I was expecting.... but what a beautiful surprise RKTVS is! You've turned a corner with your music, it's maturing and changing as you do, and whilst some artists falter here, you just get stronger Rob. You are such a wordsmith when it comes to your lyrics, very true, very raw but almost poetic at the same time. A truly brilliant album, you should be so proud of it... x

Since I played the first song

by Sweet Hobbit - 3 Dec 2009 - 12:34pm
Since I played the first song on the night I bought the album, there isn't a single moment in time when you are not playing in my head. Whether I'm working, reading, sleeping, driving, talking, cooking, shower, any where, anytime you are in my head. That to me speaks volumes on how well your album has been made. I truly hope you make it here to North America - it'll be a sold out performance no doubt.

Hi Robbie. Sadly I've never had the opportunity to go to one of your gigs. Live in Cairns and always working.

WISH YOU COULD COME UP TO QLD & PARTY WITH ME!!!

Hey Dr. Williams, I like to

by Henrik.Green - 27 Nov 2009 - 10:04am
Hey Dr. Williams, I like to see all this love that goes towards you, here at this blog. I was inspired to write, because I heard in the radio that you where afraid of starting a new Tour, if you ended up in some kind of abuse again... Well, I had the pleasure of seeing you perform last time in Cph. I had made some software for some of the Lighting Fixtures at the show and stood in "Front of House" with you dad... And again there was so much love in the air... You should not deprive your selv from this experience... A solution could be to make some HUGE concerts in some of the major cities world wide. When you stop in one city, then take 1 month break and do NOTHING... Just enjoy... :-) Green

Fuc-ing hard work to stay

by nature lover - 26 Nov 2009 - 1:33pm
Fuc-ing hard work to stay sober! But you do it great. Cross my fingers for you to have the strength to keep it that way. Must be hard when you are an artist and have that "flow" thing inside. I´ve got both in my genes as well. Well enough nagging, but it helps talking about it. Your music is great anyway! By the way, you are not involved in the climate discussion?

by 528425 - 26 Nov 2009 - 12:24pm
Hi Rob. It's nice to see the happy you. It shows. If you can be happy, there's hope for the rest of us! I saw you in an interview with the BBC and you said you probably wouldn't tour much any more because after a few shows you "crumble". Just wanted to say that I attended one of your concerts in NZ and couldn't see any "crumble" at all. You sat on the stage at one point and said you were 'knackered' but everyone loved that because it showed you were real. You should only do shows if you want to - but just for the record, you are a fantastic live performer.

by CAPRI - 26 Nov 2009 - 11:01am
Love your new album and so glad you have found love. You look so happy and content. (it should have been me though) lol. Keep up the good work. You amaze me everytime and remember. "When your feeling sad or blue, call on me to see you through and when you feel things aren't right you can call on me day or night. " Oh forgot to tell you I wrote a song for you when you broke up with Take That and that was part of the first line. XXXX
