    I’ve been a huge Robbie fan for many years. And TT also. Appreciate Gary’s talent and confidence. Totally disagree with people, who try to insult him on these terms - being confident is not bad especially when you’re supposed to be a worldwide famous musician. It’s one of the most important things in the business 🤷🏻‍♀️
    After analyzing their stories I came to a conclusion, that Robbie’s only fault was being too emotional. He was just a kid back then. And he had no time to rest and look back on his mistakes. Of course he won the battle, he became 10 times more successful than Gary in commercial aspects, and he also is an iconic entertainer. Gary has always been a talented songwriter, but not good in promoting himself. His attitude isn’t that ‘rockstarish’ in general.
    But what do we have in common? Both went through it all and became closer to each other, because they matured. I’m happy about that. Hope guys will make some more collaborations soon - their voices sound brilliant together ❤

I also ove how Gary can say with confidence how good he was because he really was the one who wrote everything. I dont think it was untill they got back together that the others started to help with the writing.

    Gary is just a brilliant creative composer and songwritter, he can also do pretty well as a performer, has a good voice, but his true brilliance comes out in the songwritting and composing, he did for himself, as a solo artist, for Take That, and for many other artists who people dont even dream of, even movies, he did it all. he is a great person and carried Take That on his shoulders for long, more than he should have, the others should have helped him more, too much pressure on just one guy, nevertheless, he remained till this day as a true, good person, a humble and down to earth guy, friend of his friend.

    As a gigging musician for the last 40 years, and still going strong in 2 bands now (playing Beautiful Days festival and five others, later this year) I have followed Take That since they returned and have seen them live (two times) on each of the tours. You have to understand the Take That band and that Mike and Milton (and others) have been together all the way through. Gary is an excellent musician and song writer, for himself and many others, but is he isn't a showman. Robbie is. Their shows now are spectacular, and all three of the remaining members are so humble and appreciative of all they are able to do, and the fans rightly love and respect them for it.

    It is true when he says that he had to fail. When he went solo, it was still Take That, but without the other four guys. Musically, he didn't have much new to offer and he wasn't as charismatic then and came across as too confident. Robbie, on the other hand, had the advantage of doing something different musically, which he couldn't show in Take That. Coupled with his entertainment talent, it's not surprising that he ended up winning the battle between the two.

      No, because RW was saying the things other people were thinking. That’s why they stung - they were true. Gary, at the time, was producing his weakest work because he was burnt out. He was producing dated stuff because after 6 years of constant work he had lost touch with popular culture - he was too busy working to go to clubs or gigs himself. And he was selfish and egoistic and entitled because he had been indulged for so long. And he was tight! There’s interviews from that period where he is boasting about it. He just was not self-aware about how he was coming across.

      At the end of the day if Gary and Clive Davis had clicked, if they’d found a hit song together and Gary had broken the States, then absolutely nothing that Rob was saying about him in the press here would have made the slightest bit of difference. Because no-one in the US then cared one iota about that stuff.

      @@marcolopez354 people tend not to dwell on it because they feel bad about the bullying now - which did go way too far, there is no doubt about that. And Rob did end up participating when he was well beyond being justified - but that happened *after* Gary was dropped by his label. It was being kicked when he was down and Rob was hugely successful that really hurt. But in that period in 1996 when Rob was originally nasty about Gaz, he’d had No 1 singles and a No 1 album, he had an American record deal with the legendary Clive Davis, it looked like he was going to be a big success. Rob being mean about him didn’t affect him initially, it was once people started to see that what he said rang true that other people picked it up. And Gary did dismiss Rob’s talent at the time(it’s why he hesitates when he is asked about it), he did criticise him a lot for his drink and drug problems in an unpleasantly hypocritical way, and he did sit in interviews and boast about writing off his expenses against his taxes.
      It was Gary’s second album that flopped hard - musically it was totally out of step with what was happening in 1999. And by then he has just completely lost his confidence.
      Gary is very open about this now.

They made up years ago, both of them admitting and apologizing for their part in the whole thing. Robbie rejoined the band for a while and they worked together several times after that.

    Gary Barlow probably loved being the leader of a famous band so much that he didn’t even care about management taking the trouble to invent back stories and impose nicknames, as Robbie Williams says here: ua-cam.com/video/CPRrQsmuUns/v-deo.htmlsi=RY-s47diZTtdNm1V&t=210

When Robbie left they did well with Patience, Rule the world… but it was up until the progress album that I think they were at their peak. Robbie joined in along with producer Stuart Price. Progress is their best album.
