Editorial Reviews

From Amazon.com
Robbie Williams was a teenage pop star in the U.K. as a member of Take That (think New Kids on the Block); his first solo album, Life Thru a Lens, tanked--until the single "Angels" was released and became a mega-hit. His follow-up album, I've Been Expecting You, spawned more hits--"Millennium," "Let Me Entertain You"--and, somewhat unexpectedly, transformed Williams from prefab pop star to artist. The Ego Has Landed, his U.S. debut, collects songs from his two prior British releases and lives up to the hype. Though he's still somewhat prefabricated, borrowing wholesale from Oasis (whose Liam Gallagher was an idol of Williams's), George Michael, the Pet Shop Boys (whose Neil Tennant cowrote and sings backup on "No Regrets"), and even Tom Jones, Williams injects plenty of his own personality--brash and bold but rarely bratty. He's a born entertainer, plain and simple--"Let Me Entertain You," which would fit in well on Tommy, is plenty campy but only somewhat tongue-in-cheek, and he makes no apologies for it. The one caveat here is that the album is front-loaded, with all of the hits coming in the first half--but there's also a good chance that you won't mind. --Randy Silver


Customer Reviews

A good way to know Robbie Williams in Latin America5
Definitely in Latin America is not a very easy market for European singers at least they have gained enough advertising in the U.S.

It was a good idea to bring the very best of Robbie's previous albums in order to let the people in Latin America know the good music of Robbie Williams since he was an unknown singer that could only hit one song in the radio and that's it.

Excellent music and great lyrics, definitely : worth to be listened!

GREAT MUSIC4
I bought this whilst on vacation in Florida as I did not have any of Robbie's previous CD's.It has great music with all the hits on it and well worth the money.I'd recommend it to anyone.

This is really great album!5
This Cd contens really great songs from Rob, I think, the hole album it's really great, for all the people who doesn't ever listening to him, 'cause it's a compilation of his greatest hits, except for "south of the boarder" and "I't's only us", and other ones , too. That's why I reccomend buy the others CD's I mean "I've been expecting you" and "Life thru a lens". In particular , I love all the british music, (Oasis, Travis, The verve), maybe that's why I love Rob's music. When i bougth this CD,I don't imagine all the excellent music that it contens. If you have the chance,please, listen to the spanish version of "Angels" (El ángel que quiero yo). You'll see it's great.
