Robbie Williams Plans Comeback

His last album ‘Rudebox’ was a complete flop, Take That’s reunion is reaching new heights; without him, and former band mates have been quoted saying things like “There is no place for Robbie in Take That anymore.” Some might say Robbie Williams is pretty washed up.

But Rob has other ideas. Reports show that he plans a huge musical comeback in 2008; apparently because he is so jealous of his former band’s success he wants revenge.

A source close to the singer said: “Things haven’t been going that well for Robbie recently and he’s been having a bit of a break from recording. His last album, ‘Rudebox’, was panned by critics, which was made worse by the fact Take That are doing so well, without him. Robbie has now decided enough is enough and it’s time to reclaim his crown. He is working on new material and he reckons this is the best stuff he has ever come up with. There could even be another hit like ‘Angels’.”

He is the stuff that legends are made off. Bob is the kind off person fans want to listen over and over again. A career-spanning, three-CD retrospective of Bob Dylan’s music - DYLAN - will be released worldwide on October 1 by Columbia Records. This definitive Bob Dylan collection chronicles the artist’s four decades of groundbreaking studio recordings, as well as his unparalleled influence on popular music and culture. Song selection for this comprehensive set is still being determined, and will be greatly influenced by impassioned fan lobbying on website dylan07.com. This site — which went live in February for fans to share thoughts on Bob Dylan’s music, swap stories about first hearing the artist’s songs and seeing him in concert, and more — has been updated today with the DYLAN artwork, a promotional trailer for the album, as well as the ability for fans to vote on the DYLAN track listing.
