I'm Irish. Unless you lived in Ireland or the UK at the time, you'll never understand how famous Take That actually were. It was insane! The helpline for distraught fans was actually set up because Robbie left the group, it wasn't just when the band split. Robbie leaving was national news! It was mad. Take That was everywhere at the time.
I love when you cover the European pop groups that were not popular here in America and which a lot of us Americans never heard of. I have relatives that grew up in Africa and Europe and as a child in the 90s and 2000s I would visit them or stay with them when they would come to America and they would play their music or introduce me to them. I always wondered, why aren't these other European pop acts like West Life, Sugababes, Take That, Blue, etc popular here in America like The Spice Girls, Beatles, S Club 7, or One Direction?! They have amazing hits. I still listen to them today. 😊🙌🏽
I’ve been a fan of them since their Circus era in 2008 and became a die-hard ever since. They’re great vocalists, song writers and performers. I’m planning on seeing them live for the first time in London in July. Thanks for doing this video. Love these guys! 💙
I’ve heard of Take That, I know that “Back For Good” was their biggest hit here in the US, but I was never the biggest fan of boy bands/boy groups, but I still really enjoyed this video!! Could you do videos on girl groups like Sugababes, Eden’s Crush, 3LW, and Play?
Take That was one of my favourite bands of the 90s. Although I don't follow their music as much now, I still love them and I love their song 'Rule the World' for the Stardust soundtrack. To me that is their best song. Thank you for making a video about them. :) ❤
For context, they were bigger than One DIrection, BTS, Backstreet Boys, NSync, and 30 years later, still immensely popular and appreciated in UK. Gary Barlow, one of the lead vocalists, wrote 90% of their 90s albums.
They couldn't even break into the US market. No way they were bigger than Nsync and Backstreet Boys. They're probably bigger than the other 2 you mentioned though.
@@thegoldenseatlife He released two albums after the successful album mentioned above and both were flops. He's an independent artist now. His last album was released independently.
Lmao Normally I would agree. But how quick you all turned on Harry. You all aren't looking good.. I'm American. We look aweful that's why I know your shit. But your bullshit isn't flying here. Stop acting like your better then anyone. You guys seem to forget the aweful you have done and still do..meanwhile, everyone remembers.
I'm American, and I loved Take That. I found out about them when my family moved to Germany back in the early 90s because my dad was Air Force. My middle school aged self was so happy to get an Everything Changes album copy that I played to death. Never liked New Kids On The Block.
Currently have been in a Take That moment this past week and came across your video today, so thank you for posting this. I grew up in California and loved reading the UK teen and music magazines so I was a big Take That fan in middle school in the mid 90s and had a ton of pen pals in the UK and across Europe who would send me posters, CDs photos and stories about seeing the guys on tour and all that. It was quite the scandal when Robbie left the group, which was right around the time “Back For Good” was starting to climb the charts here. He was seen in the video and single cover but removed from further artwork and never mentioned in any US promo. Soon after that, the group disbanded. I’ve followed Robbie’s career since then and got to see him perform (and met him) at his Vegas residency in 2019. The group as mentioned in the video is now Gary, Howard and Mark and they continue to put out great songs.
If you are from the United States and didn't know about these guys back then, it just means you only listened to mainstream music and listened to what was handed to you. No shade, but it just shows the power of the industry. The only reason I know their music was because I made a conscious effort to find music from other parts of the world because TV and radio played the same 10 artists over and over.
I watch every single one of your videos because they're so well researched. Even if I wasn't a fan of the subject matter back then, your entertaining, thorough and impeccable presentation makes me watch as soon as I get a chance. Thank you for being one of the quality channels on UA-cam. I soooooo wish you were able to release videos everyday but I'll take whatever you give 🥺
robbie williams became one of the biggest artists in human history after leaving take that, in 2002 or 2003, robbie williams was nomited as 77 greatest britons. he aint big in USA , and he had a tour 23 years ago in USA last time, and he has said USA is the only place where he can go out on the streets without getting jumped on by fans, since no one knows who he is
This is very weird. I was just playing “It Only Takes a Minute” and “Back for Good” in the car, and then this pops up on my UA-cam feed. 😊 I would love to see a Craig David, Billie Piper, and S Club 7 “Let’s Get to the Root.”
Oh this takes me wayyy back! The Take That vs East 17 chat in my primary school years was something else! Side note, their covers were lit and Gary is a good song writer fr.
As a Brit living in the US since 2004, I adore and appreciate these European band mini docs. ❤ UK Pop and R&B was my life as well as whatever US music music was popular & international. But then after moving I fell off with the UK music and just kind of listened to whatever was out here but was introduced to so much more R&B I didn’t really care LOL . I feel bad so these videos give me a bit of closure knowing how they all ended up til the last thing they did. X
I swear the older Robbie Williams and Train frontman Pat Monahan can be twins. I recently saw the trailer for Robbie's Netflix documentary and they're almost indistinguishable.
I ended up buying all of Take That's albums during COVID - mostly because I saw their video for "Patience" and did not realize that they had 1. gotten back together in the mid 00's, 2. brought Robbie back for the one album, and 3. are still going with just Mark, Gary, and Howard. I became such a huge fan of TT in just the past 2 years (I'm from the US but living in Eastern Europe), and of Mark as a solo artist.
I love take that they was so underrated in the US But they so famous in Europe and Asia same like Westlife, but can you do Westlife next ?? I was hoping you to make a video about Westlife too :')❤❤
Back for good was a bop! Wow i forgot all about that song. This channel is nostalgic as heck and also, robbie ha that video that scarred tf outta me. Thats all I remember from the group 😂
New kids on the block paid tribute to the back for good video in their music video for boys in the band. Also during their Europe tour in 2014 Donnie rapped to one of Robbie’s songs
Greta video…the guys are all still very active individually and I believe are planning the music soon! I met Mark Owen a couple of weeks ago and later attended one of his concerts some time later…very talented guy and equally really lovely in person! A fantastic British group with some fab tunes!!! 👌🏼🎶
They were popular and done well all over the world expect the US, that's sounds like a successful group to me. Sad that people as well as bands and singers themselves, feel they haven't done well if they haven't cracked the US. There is life outside the US.
@@mewesquirrel6720 not true the reason why take that along with west life another huge uk boy band was not popular in America was the simple fact that American producers didn’t want to complete with us boy bands Backstreet Boys and n synic because they khew west life and boyzone would have been huge in the states that’s why
I was a kid (in America) when Take That first came out and remember them well. However, I didn't know how big they were in Europe, nor that Robbie Williams was a member, even though I listened to his solo music as well. I knew the music but as a kid, i didn't follow record sales in other countries 😂
Maybe you can try making a video about Jason Donovan, an Australian pop singer and actor who is famous for his stint in "Neighbours", his friendship and brief romance with Kylie Minogue, his hits from PWL Records and Polydor, and his acting roles in musical theatre. I liked his music since the late 2010's (even though he wasn't famous in the US) when I was first introduced to him by his duet with Kylie named "Especially for You".
Wonderland is not there last album . Odyssey was the last one which had new tracks on . As well as a tour in 2019 . They have been back for over a decade and bigger than ever .
Easy to forget how big Take That were here in the UK & other countries in the early to mid 90s, and how many teenage girls were distraught when they split up - I remember reading a magazine article about a girl going to a counsellor about it. I think they could easily have had continued success after Robbie left, and although I wasn't a fan of theirs in the 90s, I was happy for them when they returned to a positive reception. Their sound has evolved over the years and I do think they were short-changed by the media and music industry when Robbie went on to achieve big success - I wasn't aware Gary developed an eating disorder in the late 90s but am not surprised as Robbie's success resulted in the media treating him like a bit of a joke, which he probably didn't deserve. Good to see they all seem to be on better terms now. One thing that does still make me chuckle Gary at 1996 press conference: "Unfortunately the rumours are true, as of today... there's no more!" Gary at 2006 press conference: "Unfortunately the rumours are true, as of today... we're going back on the road!"
Girls needed counciling and were threatening to take their own lives when the band broke up WHAT? Hate to see how those girls dealt with an actual crisis
take that is known everywhere but the US, which is such a shame, because americans are missing out on great music! they really knew how to make the perfect comeback, their concerts are out of this world and they are insanely talented. their story is very inspiring.
....It's PAINFUL that this precursor to the 90's Boy Band craze, grew to become MASSIVE successes in the UK...but, did NOTHING over here in the USA! ....Their "Everything Changes" CD was PURE POP, and they had matured musical growth in EVERY Album, since...a TRUE Band, that earned their accolades....Individual GREAT chaps, too....
That’s because American record producers and radio stations wouldn’t give them any exposure or air time because they khew they would have been competing against American boy bands Backstreet Boys and nsinc
I've never heard of this band, Sis. However, I vaguely remember the line, "Whatever I said, whatever I did, I didn't mean it. I just want you back for good." That sounds so familiar to me. Anyway, I'm hella mo'ded right nah because I never knew that Robbie Williams was in a band. I used to love 1999's _Millennium._ That was my jam during that period. I never bothered to follow up on him. Let's face it, he couldn't really sing. From the looks of it, this band does very well within the European music marketplace. I think the rub between American bands and European bands comes from corporate. In America, we already have plans for certain bands. Why bother w/ outside bands? If a label done spent such & such dollars on the rollout for the Backstreet Boys then why bother w/ Europe's Take That? Same thing happened to Craig Ashley David. His debut LP and movement was larger than life overseas. He tried it here and it ended up being take it or leave it (for the urban consumers). I loved him (and still do), but the average urban consumer was close-minded during that period. Usher Raymond was top choice. I remember when girls were like, "Oooh, why he sound like that?" It's like, "That baby is from the doggon UK. Give him a break." A culture clash, if you will. I would circle back to Take That, but I don't have anything more to say. Great video, Sis.
Great story l remember them.... comes to show not all white artists always make it...do MN8's story 😏 l also like that you do none black artist... l'm a music nerd and love all genre of music 🎶 🎵 ❤️
Yall gotta do East 17 next they were Take Thats polar opposites in music. Robbie williams i think was the most successful out of the whole group, hes still going today
I love that Americans believe that if a band is not succesful in the US then they're not succesful at all. Take That still is massive in the worls, meanwhile all the bands or singers that were number 1 in the US back then are now long gone.
I think one of the reasons Robbie WIlliams' career never really took off in the US is that he's too British. For me, it's never been about him having a spectacular voice or musical ability, for me it's mostly about entertainment, the all-around package and that includes his humor. While the British and the Germans (I'm German by the way) get that humor and his big mouth right away, I think Americans don't really get it and see him as slightly arrogant. However, I think he could and should have had more success with "Swing When You're Winning".
too british? USA dosent even have great rock bands like the UK. The Beatles, The rolling Stones, The Who, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, Queen, Led Zeppelin, Oasis, The police, iron maiden, deep purple, def leppard, Coldplay, Blur, Radiohead etc etc. Never cared for Eagles or the doors, most overated band ever, eagles has 1-2 good songs yes, and i dont find the doors any good at all
@@StarzzyJJASD Well, that's true to a certain extent, but then again, Coldplay are Brits who weren't that different musically from what Robbie was doing in his solo beginnings and conquering the US.
@@StarzzyJJASD Ehh Idk about that. Lots of European pop, rock, metal, etc group acts that became popular in America. ABBA, the Beatles ofc, Whitesnake, Def Leppard, etc etc are more popular in America than European Soul, R&B and Hip Hop acts.
Take That are an immensely successful and accomplished bad who write their own material and who also often play their own instruments. Take That are not your typical boyband and their continued success for 30 years now proves just that. Along their 30 million worldwide albums sales, they are also massively accomplished in touring. Their 2011 Progress Tour alone grossed almost €200 million in the UK alone. Over the course of their career, the band has made more than €600 million in live entertainment revenue. Their albums sales worldwide: 1992 - 1,5 million - Take That & Party 1993 - 3,2 million - Everything Changes 1995 - 4,1 million - Nobody Else 1996 - 4,5 million - Greatest Hits 2005 - 2,8 million - Never Forget: Ultimate Collection 2006 - 4,5 million - Beautiful World 2008 - 2,8 million - Circus 2010 - 4,5 million - Progress 2014 - 1,2 million - III 2017 - 0,5 million - Wonderland 2018 - 0,5 million - Odyssey
Whatever happened to Rene & Angela? Whatever happened to SOS Band? Love your channel. I started as a club DJ in 86 and mixed all genres of dance music.
I know about take that even though they never blew in the us. bc I'm a music lover. When I found out Robbie Williams returned I was very shocked I thought it would never happened. It was like Justin returning to NSYNC which I believe will never happen but you never know 🤷
Wow surprised to see TT featured here but yh they were like the modern day Beatles. Pure hysteria! Even though I weren't one of those girls crying their eyes out I have to say they have produced some exceptional songs. One of the few successful bands to truly stand the test of time
Love Take That. Its funny as they have never disappeared in the UK. They're still very much popular. Robbies new video just popped up today too. Also Jessica Simpson wasn't the original singer of Angels and still prefer the original.
I'm Irish. Unless you lived in Ireland or the UK at the time, you'll never understand how famous Take That actually were. It was insane! The helpline for distraught fans was actually set up because Robbie left the group, it wasn't just when the band split. Robbie leaving was national news! It was mad. Take That was everywhere at the time.
Fascinating,learn something new everyday,gonna checkout their music now.
Damn.... it was that bad.
dang it’s was it?? sheesh
I'm Hungarian. I remember so clearly :)
Robbie wants to take Gary Barlow spot
TAKE THAT : the greatest of all boy bands.
Back for Good is still a bop
YES IT IS☺️
Ugh still so good!! 🥰
One of the best songs ever made.
I love when you cover the European pop groups that were not popular here in America and which a lot of us Americans never heard of.

They have amazing hits. I still listen to them today. 😊🙌🏽
Honestly, the only reason S Club 7 actually got any traction in US was because of their TV show. Other than that, they wouldn't have been a blip.
@@PHSDM104 that's true. Before their show aired here they made sure Bring it all Back was released. The show gave them some notoriety here in the US.
Sugababes!! I love them
@@nehsangbong7259 but the music industry in America was different in a fast paced era.
@@lexkanyima2195 I never said it wasn't. Plus even today new R&B acts in Europe aren't big here despite the social media era we live in..
what we need is an S Club 7 video…
😇
I’ve been a fan of them since their Circus era in 2008 and became a die-hard ever since. They’re great vocalists, song writers and performers. I’m planning on seeing them live for the first time in London in July. Thanks for doing this video. Love these guys! 💙
So did you get to see them? Ive been a fan since 2012, and saw the this year for the first time =)
I’ve heard of Take That, I know that “Back For Good” was their biggest hit here in the US, but I was never the biggest fan of boy bands/boy groups, but I still really enjoyed this video!!
Could you do videos on girl groups like Sugababes, Eden’s Crush, 3LW, and Play?
I always enjoyed Back for Good! Millennium by Robbie Williams is STILL a bop! 😁
I love Millennium too! 🥰
Millennium, Angels, Love Supreme, She’s the One, Rock DJ (even if the video is 😬). All great.
@@HufflinPuffs I REALLY love Kids with Kylie Minogue too! ❤️
@@danavixen6274 I just now heard of this one. Where have I been? 🤦🏾♀️
Millennium Was My Is Favorite Song To This Very Day. It Is Just A Great Song To Listen 🎧 To. Even Today.
Take That was one of my favourite bands of the 90s. Although I don't follow their music as much now, I still love them and I love their song 'Rule the World' for the Stardust soundtrack. To me that is their best song. Thank you for making a video about them. :) ❤

They definitely weren't bigger than those bands. Take that was big in the U.K those other bands that huge all over the world.
@@Itsgivingnerd Exactly!
They couldn't even break into the US market. No way they were bigger than Nsync and Backstreet Boys. They're probably bigger than the other 2 you mentioned though.
The first band i have ever fallen for as a kid and even to this day❤❤
Love Robbie Williams! Can you please do one about Craig David? I always wondered about him. He was very talented! Thanks!!
Craig made a comeback a few years ago and his albums have gone straight to number. He's doing more than well.
@@jessicaibada5728 really? I didn't even know. That's awesome!
@@thegoldenseatlife He released two albums after the successful album mentioned above and both were flops. He's an independent artist now. His last album was released independently.
YES! I've been following him since 2002. He's SO underrated!!!
@@natsohigh5552 really?? I'll have to check it out. Thanks 😁
I admire how the UK embraces their artists. You never hear the"Old washed up Uncles/ aunties" chatter like you do in the US.
Cuz us in America R mean af & extremely Critical.
That's sad

That’s not true at all. You just don’t hear it with men.
I remember years ago when Robbie went solo he said at that point him being in the group was like having Busta Rhymes with The Backstreet Boys
Great memories, never to be forgotten.
I'm American, and I loved Take That. I found out about them when my family moved to Germany back in the early 90s because my dad was Air Force. My middle school aged self was so happy to get an Everything Changes album copy that I played to death. Never liked New Kids On The Block.

When you give the people what they want you get em coming back and even waiting for more. Good groove
I love your retro updates. 🧡
I ended up buying all of Take That's albums during COVID - mostly because I saw their video for "Patience" and did not realize that they had 1. gotten back together in the mid 00's, 2. brought Robbie back for the one album, and 3. are still going with just Mark, Gary, and Howard.

I never bothered to follow up on him. Let's face it, he couldn't really sing. From the looks of it, this band does very well within the European music marketplace. I think the rub between American bands and European bands comes from corporate. In America, we already have plans for certain bands. Why bother w/ outside bands? If a label done spent such & such dollars on the rollout for the Backstreet Boys then why bother w/ Europe's Take That? Same thing happened to Craig Ashley David. His debut LP and movement was larger than life overseas. He tried it here and it ended up being take it or leave it (for the urban consumers). I loved him (and still do), but the average urban consumer was close-minded during that period. Usher Raymond was top choice. I remember when girls were like, "Oooh, why he sound like that?" It's like, "That baby is from the doggon UK. Give him a break." A culture clash, if you will. I would circle back to Take That, but I don't have anything more to say. Great video, Sis.
I love your content
They're putting another album out soon
Loved Millennium
A story on rap group Delinquent Habits would be very interesting
Wonderland wasn't their last album it is currently odyssey....

Yall gotta do East 17 next they were Take Thats polar opposites in music. Robbie williams i think was the most successful out of the whole group, hes still going today
I hope you do a story on the Barrio Boyzz
Only one I truly know is Robbie Williams, and I love his song Millennium and he has a few other hits I like.
You should talk about what happened to Camp Lo
A story on rap duo Cella Dwellas would be good
Luv ya'll boys man.
Love take that
Can you do Jade?
I was like....Who?!!🤔😂...but I do remember that song❤
I love that Americans believe that if a band is not succesful in the US then they're not succesful at all. Take That still is massive in the worls, meanwhile all the bands or singers that were number 1 in the US back then are now long gone.
I think one of the reasons Robbie WIlliams' career never really took off in the US is that he's too British. For me, it's never been about him having a spectacular voice or musical ability, for me it's mostly about entertainment, the all-around package and that includes his humor. While the British and the Germans (I'm German by the way) get that humor and his big mouth right away, I think Americans don't really get it and see him as slightly arrogant. However, I think he could and should have had more success with "Swing When You're Winning".
too british? USA dosent even have great rock bands like the UK. The Beatles, The rolling Stones, The Who, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, Queen, Led Zeppelin, Oasis, The police, iron maiden, deep purple, def leppard, Coldplay, Blur, Radiohead etc etc. Never cared for Eagles or the doors, most overated band ever, eagles has 1-2 good songs yes, and i dont find the doors any good at all
No it’s because American radio stations always are pushing promoting rap music and not giving any exposure to any other artists
@@StarzzyJJASD Well, that's true to a certain extent, but then again, Coldplay are Brits who weren't that different musically from what Robbie was doing in his solo beginnings and conquering the US.
@@StarzzyJJASD Ehh Idk about that. Lots of European pop, rock, metal, etc group acts that became popular in America. ABBA, the Beatles ofc, Whitesnake, Def Leppard, etc etc are more popular in America than European Soul, R&B and Hip Hop acts.
Robbie was way bigger as a solo artist in Australia than Take That ever were.
Aussies love a cheeky lad.
Robbie was da U.K. Bobby Brown
I miss Take That.
Love 💕😘🌉😎❤️🤗🫂😁💡 them guys, from the UK.
Robbie Williams leaving Take That, might be the greatest career move in UK pop history.
Take That are an immensely successful and accomplished bad who write their own material and who also often play their own instruments. Take That are not your typical boyband and their continued success for 30 years now proves just that.
Along their 30 million worldwide albums sales, they are also massively accomplished in touring. Their 2011 Progress Tour alone grossed almost €200 million in the UK alone. Over the course of their career, the band has made more than €600 million in live entertainment revenue.
Their albums sales worldwide:
1992 - 1,5 million - Take That & Party
1993 - 3,2 million - Everything Changes
1995 - 4,1 million - Nobody Else
1996 - 4,5 million - Greatest Hits
2005 - 2,8 million - Never Forget: Ultimate Collection
2006 - 4,5 million - Beautiful World
2008 - 2,8 million - Circus
2010 - 4,5 million - Progress
2014 - 1,2 million - III
2017 - 0,5 million - Wonderland
2018 - 0,5 million - Odyssey
Hacienda .Robbie and the gang say no more take that ,ha ha
Whatever happened to Rene & Angela?
Whatever happened to SOS Band?
Love your channel. I started as a club DJ in 86 and mixed all genres of dance music.
I know about take that even though they never blew in the us. bc I'm a music lover. When I found out Robbie Williams returned I was very shocked I thought it would never happened. It was like Justin returning to NSYNC which I believe will never happen but you never know 🤷
Wow surprised to see TT featured here but yh they were like the modern day Beatles. Pure hysteria! Even though I weren't one of those girls crying their eyes out I have to say they have produced some exceptional songs. One of the few successful bands to truly stand the test of time
Take that looks a tiny like BTS because they have similar haircuts.
Mark is like the British Jimin.
How did you hear about Take That?
Love Take That. Its funny as they have never disappeared in the UK. They're still very much popular. Robbies new video just popped up today too. Also Jessica Simpson wasn't the original singer of Angels and still prefer the original.
Harpo! Who these people 🤣im lost with this group
