I dare say there are precious few big artists across the big pond from North America that aren't big here. However there is one. Robbie Williams, to my knowledge has never "hit" here (at least in the U.S.A.), but I've heard he's huge across the pond and perhaps other part of the world. Why? What's his draw?I spent this afternoon listening to his new CD, while reading MOG posts and comments, and...

Produced by synth-pop godfather Trevor Horn, the title of Williams’s seventh album nods towards Horn’s own greatest hit of 1979, Buggles’ “Video Killed the Radio Star”.

Can't say I'm a fan, his music is not my cup of coffee, which I prefer dark. He does have my liking for having "addiction" written all over his forehead. However, I fancy 2 songs of his. The first one is Love Supreme that I adore, which happens to have a very good vid as well:The other song of his I like is Rock DJ. Here's its uncut version, in which he demonstrates creativity in pleasing (carn...

Bodies is the new single from Robbie 'Robster' Williams. It's sorta catchy in annoying way and was produced by Trevor 'Buggles' Horn. It's recieved a flaberghastingly shit remix from Fred Falke and anybody who says it's great is a liar who blindly accepts Falke's woeful remix output of late. Notice how it's not posted.Robbie 'Robster' WilliamsによるニューシングルBodiesはイライラす

Lead single from Robbie Williams upcoming release, 'Reality Killed The Video Star'. Good song that seems to have fairly obvious inflections of old Motown soul pop!I really like the title of Williams' album; Obviously a play on The Buggles 1979 release 'Video Killed The Radio Star', I think Williams is aptly describing the current change in media formats much in the same way The Buggles describ...
