Who the hell is Robbie Williams and why isn't this cutie...
...more popular in the United States

Damn he was quite pleasing to watch during his Live8 set and I was amazed at how excited the folks at the concert got when he sang

2. He's a dude Briarius and I like to listen to :)
Picked up one of his CDs while living in Germany... John was more into that kind of music first, but I definitely acquired a taste for it!

4. I just found him recently myself
and like what I see so far. Angels is such a truly great song......I didn't see Live 8--did he perform that, or did he do something else? In a lot of ways he's like Harry Connick Jr.--good looking and does the old standards with a lot of class.

11. I really, really, really like Robbie Williams.
I think one of the reasons he's not so popular among adults in the states is that he comes from a British "boy band," so some don't take him so seriously. But he has an excellent voice and stage presence, in my opinion. And he looks _great_ in a towel.

14. I love his song "Feel".....
What I adore about Robbie Williams is that he is outrageous, arrogant, cheeky, but laughs at himself at the same time - a great entertainer!

Robbie Williams - Feel Lyrics

Come and hold my hand
I wanna contact the living
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given

I sit and talk to God
And he just laughs at my plans
My head speaks a language
I don't understand

I just want to feel real love
Feel the home that I live in
'Cause I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste

I don't want to die
But I ain't keen on living either
Before I fall in love
I'm preparing to leave her
I scare myself to death
That's why I keep on running
Before I've arrived
I can see myself coming

I just want to feel real love
Feel the home that I live in
'Cause I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste
And I need to feel real love
And a life ever after
I cannot give it up

I just want to feel real love
Feel the home that I live in
I got too much love
Running through my veins
To go to waste

I just wanna feel real love
In a life ever after
There's a hole in my soul
You can see it in my face
It's a real big place

Come and hold my hand
I want to contact the living
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
