What do you really think of Take That?

I'm glad they're back again. Liked them on Moyles' show this morning. Good banter. Like their latest song. Would have preferred to hear the gang make more a fool of "could it be magic", as it sounded like it would have been funnier than "Relight My Fire".

Regarding image tho', I swear Mark Owen is the only one who seems to have retained his youthful appearance. Gary Barlow, I think, could definitely do with a little "toning up".

Well done tho' for making a successful comeback. :D

You could tell that from a radio interview?

Ooooh... wit abounds. I could tell from seeing them on "Dancing on Ice" last Saturday! :-)

I like them - they have matured well. I prefer Robbie though. He hasn't.

I can't stand Robbie, and I'm glad that his career is heading in the opposite direction of the band he left.

Love the new album - a boyband its ok to like - is it just me, or do most of the songs sound like they are about;
a) how they feel about getting back together as a band eg. Patience (How Gary feels about the whole thing)
b) how they feel about robbie williams eg. Shine (What Mark feels about Robbie) Like I Never Loved You (Gary talking about Robbie)

I prefer them now to Robbie.... never thought I would ever say that! They are nice & maturein attitude which I like, whilst Robbie has unfortunately, IMO, remained an immature self-pitying person.

Have you chatted with him recently then Viv? How is he doing? And when did you meet the TT lads? Lucky you, it must be nice to be in a position where you can actually hold accurate opinions about famous people, rather than just basing your judgement on the incredibly fabricated and controlled picture they choose to give us in the media.

I thought you would comment just for the sake of it somehow. I have long grown tired of Robbie, with all his dough, yet he never, ever seems to find therapists who can help despite lots of cash. it's become boring. Sometimes I think certain people need a good kick up the A***. End of.

Crikey Yudmeist, doth I detect a nerve has been touched?

Unfortunately like you're suggesting, not all of us can/do meet the big names, and so our judgements must be made based on the views we are given. In that respect I tend to agree with Viv.

But I still loves ya.

Yuds just plain doesn't like me, Foots. I can't think why. I took away my little faces to try and make peace... and you know what, today, I'm gonna put them back. F*** it! :-)

Sorry Viv, I do like you, honest - I just think we all tend to think we "know" all about people just because they are in the spotlight - and we don't, we really don't. I was mean with the way I expressed it, I am sorry, you didn't deserve me in bitch mode. And before anyone else says it, yes, it IS that time of the month.
