Amazon.co.uk Review
When Life Thru A Lens came out, Robbie Williams was a swiftly-failing music industry joke--"Blobbie Pill-iams", the ballooning drug-freak, drunk and bleary-eyed at far too many parties for his own good. Although his cover of George Micheal's "Freedom" had gone in at Number 2, "Old Before I Die" and "South Of The Border" sounded too like weak-tea Oasis for any real chart action and people were starting to talk about him as a failure. Then the elegiac "Angels" with its simple black-and-white video hit MTV pay-dirt, and six months later Williams was picking up six BRIT Awards, showing off his post-rehab six-pack and dating an All Saint. And so the rest of Life Thru A Lens is a likeable, hyperactive stream of consciousness--much like Williams himself. "Lazy Days" is an unexpectedly gorgeous psychedelic swoon, and "Let Me Entertain You"--"When I'm Cleaning Windows" for the Hooch generation--is still an irresistible offer. --Caitlin Moran

Customer Reviews

oh dear
boring as ever. Try Nick Worrall's debut album for a real treat and to show what good modern songwriting sounds like.

Robbies first and best alum
Robbies first album is also his best. Life thru a lens, Let me entertain you, South of the border, Killing me slowly, Lazy days, Old before I die ands the wonderful angels make this album worth listening to over and over again. I have all of Robbies albums but this is the only one that would be in my top 10 albums of all time.
