  • Robbie’s Back with Take That?

    sky news announce robbies back

    About Bloody time!  Since the first Take That reunion tour it’s become almost a joke with the will he, wont he? But according to Sky News he will!!

    I’ve seen Take That twice, seen Robbie Williams three times, never together though!

    I will admit I’ve always been a bit of a Take That fan and have Could It Be Magic on 7″ and I also have the Babe cd Single with limited calendar cover for 1994. (showing my age here)

    When Take That announced the final goodbye in 1996 after Robbie had left the group, he seemed like Robbie had made a good decision.  Gary Barlow had two hits with Forever Love and Open Road but seemed to drift off to the ‘dumper’ (used especially for Smash Hits readers). Robbie on the other hand released a cover of George Michael‘s Freedom before heading to record ‘Life Thru a Lens’.

  • Take That: The Circus Live DVD

    A couple of touring pop stars decided to go with a Circus theme in recent times, Britney Spears, Pink with her Funhouse could be umbrella’ed into that and finally Take That. I saw this tour live in May 2009 when Take That brought the show to Croke Park in Dublin.

    It can be a bit hard sometimes to translate the excitement of a live show over to a TV screen. Sometimes DVDs lack because we can’t feel the buzz of actually being there, I feel that a little with this.

    The Circus Live is really well edited and put together. Its not surprising that due to the Take Take phenomenon that has re-enveloped the British Isles over the past couple of years, on the first day of release ‘The Circus Live’ had become the fastest selling music DVD ever in the UK.
