"X FACTOR WAS FUN LAST WEEK"
HEY FRIENDLIES,
HOW DO?
I'VE BEEN A VERY BUSY BOY.....
NO DAYS OFF FOR THE LAST 6 WEEKS....(AND LOVING IT)
SO MANY PLANS....SO MANY IRONS IN THE FIRE....
SO MUCH I CAN'T TELL YOU ABOUT ; )
WITHIN MONTHS I'M ABOUT TO EMBARK ON THE BUSIEST
PERIOD OF MY CAREER TO DATE AND I CAN'T WAIT TO GET IT STARTED....
EVERYTHING SEEMS NEW........
I'VE TAKEN THE IDEA OF FRIENDLY GIGS A BIT FUTHER...BUT YOU'LL HAVE TO WAIT A BIT TO FIND OUT....SORRY ; )
FARRELL'S UP AND RUNNING AND DOING VERY WELL.....LOVING IT.....
I'M LEARNING A DIFFERENT TRADE......OLD DOG NEW TRICKS.....
WITH THE AMAZING BEN DICKENS COMING OVER FROM BURBERRY
I FEEL LIKE I DID WHEN WHEN ME AND GUY CHAMBERS STARTED WRITING SONGS TOGETHER.,....EXCITING TIMES....
RE NEW ALBUM...I THINK A WHILE AGO I SAID THE NEW ALBUM SOUNDS LIKE ESCAPOLOGY
I'LL HAVE TO REVISE THAT....THE NEW ALBUM SOUNDS LIKE NON OF THE OLD ONES....
BUT I HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO WHAT YOU WANT FROM ME ...
YOU WANT GUITAR/PIANO/HEART ON MY SLEEVE STUFF...OK...YOU GOT IT....
I MADE THE LAST COUPLE OF ALBUMS FOR ME AND HAD A GREAT TIME DOING IT
BUT MY RAISON D'ETRE (WORLD DOMINATION) WAS MISSING....IT'S BACK
I KNOW IT SEEMS LIKE AGES UNTIL ANYTHING WILL HAPPEN...
BUT IT FEELS LIKE 5 MINUTES AGO I WAS SAYING "THIS TIME NEXT YEAR I'LL BE ON STAGE WITH TAKE THAT"
THAT CAME AND WENT QUICKLY DIDN'T IT?
X FACTOR WAS FUN LAST WEEK....NICE TO GO TO A TV STUDIO AND NOT BE WORKING
IT FELT LIKE THE LAST DAY OF TERM BEFORE THE HOLIDAYS....GAZ WAS ON GREAT FORM
HE'S THE MOST UNFLAPPABLE MAN IN THE BUSINESS ...I'VE LEARNT SO MUCH FROM HIM
HE'S TEFLON GAZ NOTHING STICKS...HE JUST GETS ON WITH ENJOYING HIMSELF...
..
IT WAS NICE TO GET REACQUAINTED WITH MARCUS TOO.....GREAT SINGER VERY HANDSOME AND A LOVELY PERSON TO BOOT....
OH TALKING OF REACQUAINTED OLLY MURS WAS THERE...WHAT A PERFORMANCE WITH THE MUPPETS!.....
I TOLD HIM HE'S A BONAFIDE PROPER POPSTAR NOW....I'M SURE ME AND HIM WILL BE SPENDNG MORE TIME TOGETHER AT SOME POINT....
I ALSO GOT TO HAVE A CHAT WITH THE BEAUTIFUL KELLY ROWLAND ...WHAT A KIND SPIRIT SHE'S GOT...SHE'S A GOODY.....
LOUIS GAVE ME A HARD TIME FOR WEARING SUNGLASSES INDOORS AND RIGHTLY HE SHOULD ....
THE INDOOR SUNGLASS WEARER IS A TWAT....BUT I HAD BIG BLACK JET LAG RINGS UNDER MY EYES.....
SO I'LL TAKE TWAT FOR AN EVENING .....WE TALKED JEDWARD AND I SENT THEM MY BEST WISHES...
WE ALSO TALKED WESTLIFE FOR A WHILE...THE LADS ARE ON THEIR LAST TOUR...WHAT A CAREER THEY'VE HAD...
(JUST GOES TO SHOW HOW LONG TAKE THAT COULD HAVE STAYED TOGETHER ,,.,.,,)
THEY'RE PROPER GRAFTERS...I'M PROUD OF THEM...SOAK IT ALL IN LADS...
THE NEXT DAY FOUND ME AT STRICTLY.....MY MATE ROBBIE SAVAGE SAID COME DOWN SO I DID....
I CAN'T REMEMBER THE LAST TIME I'VE HAD A COMPULSION TO HAVE MY PICTURE TAKEN WITH ANYBODY..
BUT THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT SUE POLLARD....SHE ASKED ME ''IS IT FOR YOUR MUM?''
NO SUE IT WAS FOR ME....I'LL TREASURE IT....THANK YOU....

I HAD A GREAT CHAT WITH JASON DONAVON IN BETWEEN REHEARSALS TOO....WHAT A TOP BLOKE
ROBBIE DID REALLY WELL HE WAS SO COMMITTED. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING MORE OF HIM ON TELLY. HE'S A GREAT CHARACTER
AND SUCH A WARM GUY... HE WANTED ME TO THANK YOU FOR ANY SUPPORT YOU THREW HIS WAY....
I'M GOING TO TRY AND GET A RADIO RUDEBOX READY FOR CHRISTMAS.....
I DID SAY THE NEXT ONE WOULD BE JUST BOYS.....BUT THAT DOESNT SEEM RIGHT FOR A CRIMBO SPECTACULAR....
SO THE GANG WILL BE BACK....
MUCH LOVE FOLKS....
I'LL LET YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON WHEN I CAN....
UNTIL THEN,...THANKS FOR GROWING OLD WITH ME...YOU KEPT YOUR PROMISE
NOW IT'S TIME I LIVED UP TO MY PART OF THE BARGAIN....

"Your first purpose for living is your own happiness. When you've achieved that, you'll automatically fulfill your second purpose - the happiness of others." * You do sound like you've achieved the first purpose and you're truly fulfilling the second at the same time! * It's sooo great to feel your excitement through those words you've put into your blog. The positivity of them is really contagious! I was grinning from ear to ear when I've read them for the first time and I had to come back several times just to read them again and again :D * Some of the things you've told us really intrigued me...friendlies gigs (I've noticed you put that in the plural...YEAHHHH!)...the news about your new album...Rudebox Radio Crimbo Spectacular (wow, that sounds like a real treat again!)...Farrell...you really are a busy boy! Hope you still take your time to relax whenever you can...but as @startingtoshow has put it so nicely: "Being happy is THE BEST ENERGY DRINK you could possibly have!" * As for the last part of your blog...what better way to grow older than with you!!! It's been a pleasure so far and I'm sure it will continue to be so! Your music has pulled me through almost every phase of my life and I'm thanking you for that from the bottom of my heart! * Just in case you won't be around before X-mas I'm wishing you a lovely time with all the ones you love and sending you some big <<<<< hugs >>>>> from Germany, Summereve

Thanks Robert...proud to be a fan of yours :)
Hi-De-Hi Campers!! Ho-De-Ho!!!! -Jeez, that brings back some childhood memories! =) My nan loved that bloody programme... Cannot wait for next year now! Havent seen you Live since the late 90's...when you did smaller venues.. I really hope its small, more intimate gigs for us friends.. =) You kind of lose that kind of atmosphere in stadiums, that seemingly you want to create with us.. Just a thought.. =) Hope your well Rob, and enjoying all your doing. Take care, best wishes, love always...xx p.s.. Yes, I really have fallen in love with you again after that gorgeously perfect blog! =)x
Dear Robbie! Growing old with you is the best way to grow old!
I love reading your Blogs they really cheer me up and its really nice to know what is going on in your mental world. I hope I get involved with one of your 'friendly concerts' after meeting you at the Farrell signing I couldnt wait to see you again......any ideas when your next tour will be??? x Thank you for making this year so special, Merry Xmas Bob xxxxxxx
Hello, hello, Which is your real raison d'être, Robert? The days when you wrote "feel" seem far away. You look happy now. Have you changed your plans, those plans that you told God? Sorry for asking you such a personal stuff. I don't make plans anymore because each time I make them, something happens and they got ruined. Well, with pop stars things are different and it may be that other make the plans and you decide later. I'm sure the radio rudebox for Christmas is going to be fun. Can you do me a favour,please ? Can you sing 'White Christmas' a capella?, Not in funny way like in Ant and Deck but like Bing Crosby. Happy Christmas, love. You won't read this because you are busy as a bee. Oh... I though that the quote is 'Old dogs don't learn new tricks' Bye and take care
Oh just lovely to read the chatty news. Like hearing from a mate. :D
Can't wait to hear what you've been up to! And I love the idea of 'friendly' concerts :) I hope there'll be lots of them though because if I don't get tickets... *heart stops* Just so you know, I LOVED the albums you did 'for yourself' and I know lots of other fans did too. Don't you worry, I'm sure we're gonna love the new stuff just as much :) Have a lovely day, Robert ;) xoxo

@PomPom the sun is right here in the North! Looks like your car with the CD player is your only hideaway, too! I get strange looks at traffic lights when I'm singing, playing drums on the dashboard and doing Rock DJ moves. Couldn't think of a better way to start the day. ~ Hello Scotland everybody ok out there after last night's storm?? ~ Still in the bubble of Rob's positivity. Future is bright. \llll high fives all around! ~ Silke x
who cares about a rainy grey december day in germany when there's "intensive care" in the car to start it with? GREAT DAY! :-) already 371 comments here. i'll hurry to add mine during the weekend. lots of love rob! you're the one!
Put a smile on my face, such lovely positive blog x Merry Christmas
AWWWW, you certainly know how to make my day. Thank you. What a lovely lovely positive blog. I am waiting very impatiently about the friendlies gig, how exciting, so much you can't tell us about, wow, can't wait. Farrell. New Album, Xmas Radio Rudebox, you certainly are a busy busy boy. But you are fantastic at anything you do. I for one am so proud to be your friendly and what a fantastic friend you are ;-), Grow old with you, definately, with you all the way Rob. Take care, look after yourself, Love as always Sam xxx
POSITIVE COMMENTS ABOUT THE BLU-RAY! For Rob: You all should be so proud of the Progress Live Blu-Ray! It beautifully captured and presented a huge, rather complicated show. The sweeping camera-work, the close-ups, the wide shots, the minimal crowd shots, the angles that showed the choreography so well... it all adds up to a Blu-Ray that is both a great souvenir for those of us who saw it live, and also a great piece of entertainment on its own. The live show deserved a great Blu-Ray, and that's what we got! A fantastic concert film... capturing a fantastic moment in music history! I am a Robbie fan first and foremost, and only learned a lot about Take That after "Shame" and "The Flood." The story of your reconciliation is the most moving and inspiring story I have ever witnessed in the history of pop music. I wish I could have a similar reconciliation in my life. You and your music have always touched me, and the Take That reunion kept me completely spellbound for a year. Thanks for blogging all the interesting tidbits. Looking forward to all your upcoming projects. Re: the new album...please don't leave out the upbeat songs. Yours are the best (Do You Mind, Bodies, Starstruck)! You are the best! Don't ever forget that! Paul
Loving your blog. Im soooooooo excited to hear your new album when its out i bet it will be brilliant. Then theres the friendly gigs, cant wait , i will be there!!! Looking forward to your next blog and i entend to grow much older with you. Have a lovely Christmas Robbie xxxxx
Hello Robert, thankyou so very much for doing a blog. I can't cope with the twitter and facebook thing as I don't like big crowds. Later today I shall be getting my calendar and vintage teeshirt and Christmas Candle which I will be lighting to absent friends especially my first Daddy on the earth plane. I love you very much xxxxx
