The Comeback Kid: Robbie Williams Returns

Filed under: Anglophilia > Music Minute > Robbie Williams

Robbie Williams is giving the music biz another go!

The Brit's new single, Bodies, will be released on October 12th, a matter of weeks before his upcoming album, Reality Killed The Video Star, hits record store shelves on November 9th.

Reality Killed The Video Star, the first full-length album released by Williams in 3 years, showcases the production talents of Trevor Horn, lead singer of 80's one-hit-wonders The Buggles, known for their legendary track, Video Killed The Radio Star.

How cheeky!

Rumors claim the album may feature production from Mark Ronson as well as Horn.

The Rock DJ singer is confident his upcoming album will be a hit: "My album's a killer: old Robbie, new Robbie and a Robbie that neither of us have met," says Williams on his official website.

Hmmmm…

No doubt Robbie's new album will thrive in the UK, but will it tank in the US like his previous crossover efforts???

Probably!

    Eeuh, Trevor Horn was indeed the singer of that song, but he's more famous for being a record producer; Frankie goes to Hollywood; Grace Jones;Art of Noise; Propaganda… to name a few..



  13. 13

    ….good lord. I just listened to Perez sing. Robbie sounds remarkably good in comparison. Just "Sing" sing a song…but not you Perez!



  14. 14

    Correction perez, he is huge in most of the world, not just the UK….americans just don't appreciate unless it's some teen bopper or if it has got some r&b or rap in it!

    I love Robbie. Everybody should read his biography, "Feel", it's a great book.

    I'm glad that he got on to Perezhilton.com, he's great!! leave him alone, he's been through so much in his life already. I hope his album does well, he deserves this so much. Who knows, America might just love it, don't judge his album yet, listen to it first then you can make your judgments!! After all thats what your all about making judgments on every aspect of these peoples lives. As for his 15mins, its been an awful long 15mins, more like 15 years!! Knock em' dead Rob!



  18. 18

    He must have used all his money already on "researching" UFOs



  19. 19

    Well better than researching celebrities



  20. 20

    And he actually fixed his normally shite website too!

    Actually, North Americans don't understand good pop, which is why he'll never make it in the States (he has broken some barriers in Canada, at least on Much More [Music]).



  21. 21

    Remember when Robbie Williams was kinda good looking? yeah those were the days….



  22. 22

    don't
    know
    him
    but
    he
    lookz
    hott☻

    Re: SheriMoonFireFly – get over here and give me a wet one!!!!!!!!!!



  24. 24

    Robbie's the best, period! Can't wait for his new music and I couldn't care less if it tanks in the US. People have poor taste if that happens.



  25. 25

    please UK bitches, North America doesn't like him cause he sucks big time!



  26. 26

    Leave Robbie alone! His music is awesome - too bad Americans don't appreciate it.



  27. 27

    Robbie is successful in every country in the world EXCEPT America. For some reason we seem to think total utter shit like Britney, Beyonce, Justin Timberlake and Flo Rida is good music. Hmmm. Like "former M fan", I'll wind up buying the import since America has its head up its ass musically.



  28. 28

    I love Robbie, he is so talented and funny.
    Why you always put this picture at Robbie's post? Is there better pictures of him try to find it!
    Can't wait for the new album :) )

    whooohooooooooooo



  30. 30

    That'll be cool.



  31. 31

    Not everything needs to be about the US…and personally I find foreign acts much more refreshing. There is too much cookie cutter going on in the American music business…always has been.

    Having said that I still do enjoy a handful of US artists but my favorites are always European.



  32. 32

    Re: LucyFur – please who name you the spokewhore of northamerica dont speak for me. Robbie fucking williams all the way,,, I LOVE YOUUUUUUU ROBBIE!!!



  33. 33

    Robbie is huge all around the world, just because America does not realise his talents doesn't change that fact.
    He is also well loved within Australia and I'm sure his next album will be a big success here.



  34. 34

    Re: wardnor – hey have fun, you and the 3 others in America who bought his album…. that fantastic duet with Nicole Kidman so you!



  35. 35

    Trevor Horn happens to be a major record producer, you idiot.
    It's not like he's done nothing since the Buggles.

    I love Robbie Williams.



  37. 37

    LOVE LOVE LOVE



  38. 38

    My eternal love



  39. 39

    well it better be good because take thats last album did extremely well and unless he tops that this album will be viewed as a failure



  40. 40

    I luv Rob too!!!
    Luck me I don´t have to import…the album sells in Brazil where I live.
    Although he doesn´t have a good success here (different from the rest of latin america), it seems like brazilian people only like what is a hit in the US =(
