Who is Robbie Williams?
I know I'm a bit behind the times but never heard of this guy.
shareHe was one of the most popular pop stars in the world in the '90s. He started in the boy band Take That, then had a solo career.
Take That didn't become popular in the U.S., but everywhere else in the world they achieved Beatles-level stardom.
In the UK:
28 top-40 singles
20 top-10 singles
17 top-5 singles
12 number-one songs
9 number-one albums
Internationally
56 number-one singles
42 number-one albums
Meanwhile, in the US, as far as I know they only ever had one single on the charts, Back For Good, which made it to #7 on the US top 40 charts in 1995.
I always found him a little creepy. Something slimy about the guy. Sadly I must admit I do like some of his music though.
