I agree. That song makes me cringe.

Robbie is undoubtedly a great performer but he can't write a decent lyric to save his life.

There aren't any other songs that sound like Candy (In my opinion anyway)

Definately his best album in a while, the last one I liked this much was Escapology which was released 10 years ago! Certainly back on form!

I feel the album is a real grower, especially Candy, which I didn't like at all when I first heard it - now I love it!

I've heard this song about eleven times in the past two days. The radio must only have about eight songs they can play? I must admit this song is the best of a bad bunch but my God...

To be fair, no one is buying Robbie Williams records for their lyrical depth.

Let's be honest here though, in the UK these day's to have a number 1 you only have to shift about 2000 copies

'Gospel' is the best song on the album by far in my opinion. Quite some catchy songs on the album. It says enough I am playing Robbie more then the new MUSE.

I salute you,

There will be instant live albums released after each of Robbie:s O2 shows.
